Kris was very, very nice and we loved staying up on the hill. If anyone is worried about being "too far away" from Kona, you're missing out. There's a quaint little village 5 minutes from the house which is very artsy and sells Kona coffee (you are right next to the plantations). 7 beaches within 15 minutes of the house.
The place was clean, very nicely done, and did a great job of managing 8 of us.
Very highly recommend.
