Great location!! It is far enough from Kona to not be engulfed in tourists, but also close enough to all the amenities it has to offer. If you enjoy snorkeling the best spots are Two Step (15 minutes south), Kahalu'u Beach Park (15 minutes north), and lastly the 4 mile treacherous hike to Captain Cook monument/ snorkeling spot starts just 5 minutes north. If your not feeling like snorkeling head an hour south to the most southern point of the U. S. Or drive two hours north to drive in what seems to be in the clouds on the way to Waipi'o Valley. The views are spectacular from the cottages balcony, bathroom and bedroom! Not to mention, they just bought a new California King bed that feels like YOU ARE LAYING ON THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN!
