We really enjoyed our stay. The views, a local place to call home, breakfast on the patio all were fantastic! I definitely think this is a good place to stay if you are looking for a reasonably priced home away from home during your travels to Kona.
Some things to be aware of - the beds and pillows are pretty uncomfortable. If you aren't really particular this won't be a deal-breaker, but you should be aware. The second issue we ran into was general cleanliness being less than ideal. In Kona, the geckos run the place and leave their poop everywhere. It looks a lot like bird poop and it is on the walls and furniture and once you see it you start finding it everywhere. It was pretty annoying when you found it on your pillows, clothes, and in lots of major crevices. Cleanliness as a whole was okay but not great. There were lots of dishes we had to rewash before using and the floors appeared a bit dirty upon arriving. A little more attention to details would have been nice staying here, but again none of these were deal breakers for us. We still had a wonderful time and would recommend this place -- just a fair warning of some of the downsides you may experience.
