If you are looking for a spot to relax, with scenary, and space to spread out, this is it. For the most part, in Hawaii you must drive everywhere ... this spot is not touristy but also very close to hiking (one trail is 10 minute drive) the the southernmost tip of the USA (about 15 minutes). You are a 20 minute drive to the black sand beach ... about another 40 minutes to Volcano National Park and about an hour from the beaches / snorkeling spots south of Kona.
In terms of the accommodation, the house is very well laid out. An excellent kitchen/open living area, the bedrooms are comfy, and outside the lanai and pool are great. We enjoyed the time we spent at the house and felt very relaxed at the end of our stay.
