PROS:
Beach house with towels and safe locks and comfy bed and air conditioning for the price per day. Can’t beat that in Kona.
CONS:
Surrounded by other air bnb/vacation rentals, aka it’s loud. The house behind is doing major construction starting at 7am. There were cockroaches. Roommates ate my food. I didn’t feel comfortable with the house manager. The vibe was off.
Overall I wouldn’t stay here again. No laundry access. Parking and using kitchen can be tricky when all rooms are full and people have their own cars.
The owner is very nice and paid for my stolen food and refunded a day (I stayed here 11 days.
For a short 3-5 day stay it’s perfect. Any longer…I would just pay extra and get your own space with laundry and no house manager and maids that clean well.
Overall I gave 4 stars instead of 2 because house owner refunded me a little bit of money to make up for feeling uncomfortable and waking up to all the noise outside house early in the AM.
