Catherine was an amazing host. She went out of the way to make sure we had everything we needed for a fun vacation, even going as far as grabbing us a beach umbrella before we checked in. Her place is a perfect location for however you plan to spend your time on the Big Island. A quick walk into the heart of Kona, a quick drive from the best sand beaches, and just far enough away for a quiet night in. Catherine was very quick to respond to my questions and concerns, and she gave some amazing recommendations for food in the immediate area.
