Meiko is a great communicator! She has a very informative binder available when you check-in -- she even e-mails you the pdf's ahead of time. Very organized and the house has everything you could possibly need.
Very peaceful location in a quiet and safe neighbourhood. Great view - tastefully decorated and comfortable.
Things to keep in mind:
- The house is approx 45-60 minutes from Kona and 30 minutes to Captain Cook. Meiko does explain this in her description - it is true. You will want to stock up on groceries and plan your days appropriately.
- At checkout you are required to remove all of your garbage from the property. Meiko gives you a choice of 3 Waste Transfer Stations that you can drop it off at - the one closest to the house is not open every day. The second one closest was closed and the third one was near the airport. This resulted in a smelly 1 hour drive to the airport, our friends had to go after dropping us at the airport as we lost 40 minutes earlier in the day trying to drop off at the other waste stations. Plan ahead for this.
All in all, it was a beautiful home and Meiko was a great host. We would stay here again.
