This place is awesome! You are in the hills above Kona and it feels like the jungle. Lush vegetation every where and very private. The views from the hot tub area are amazing. We used the hot tub every night. Very easy to heat. We would go out in the daytime to the beach or lunch or other parts of the island, and always make it back to the house before sunset so we could enjoy while in the hot tub. It heated up in plenty of time, as we would drive up to the hot tub area and turn on the heater as soon as we got back from the beach. By the time we got our swimsuits, food and beverages ready, it was ready to go within an hour or so for us as we do not like it steaming hot. It truly was an amazing place to stay and we will stay here again on our next trip! It is better than the photos. Oh, the frogs are loud the first night but by the third night you are used to it. We did not wear ear plugs but they are provided in case it gets too bad. The roosters start early but that was fine. We did not want to sleep late anyway so it worked out great. If you do, just wear ear plugs. Great house. Big bedroom and plenty of space for luggage. Two bathrooms. It was perfect for a couple. Ray was awesome too, available for help if needed. We will be back!
