We had such a great stay at Jing's. She was a great host, super responsive and welcoming. Her place is super lovely and fully equipped. She even has sun screen, snorkeling gears, and after-sun care to get you ready for a full fun day at the beach! The place is only 15min drive away from grocery stores, great restaurants, and various beaches along the Kona coast, and only less than an hour away from Mauna Kea, where you can have the best stargazing experience. The place is also perfectly shielded from the heat by being slightly up the hill (it's true, you don't need AC even in August!). Note that you would want to use Apple maps to get to the house, for some reason Google maps took us to a few houses down the road. But the drive to the place from Kona airport is just gorgeous, the change in scenery from beach to the hillside was pretty amazing. We would highly recommend Jing's place to anyone planning to visit Kona!
