We enjoyed our stay at Catherine’s place in Kona. The location was good and the lanai was very enjoyable. The coffee place next door (Green Flash) was great! Word of warning though, it can take a while to get your food/drinks so give yourself some time or check out the length of the line from the lanai before you go. We didn’t have the problems with hot water that other reviews mentioned, but we also showered in the early morning so that may have helped. I felt the condo was a little dated which had the effect of making it not seem quite as clean as I was hoping (like an older hotel room). The “beach” towels provided were really more like bath towels and the bath towels definitely need replacing (rough and bleach stained), but overall would recommend staying here especially for the price.
