I have two big biases that color this review that I'll be upfront about: (1) We came in a day late as we adjusted our travel to avoid Seattle, which was a Covid-19 hotpot. Despite Airbnb announcing a policy regarding Coronavirus-related refunds, Mike did not refund our money for that first night. I was kind of salty going in as a result, but also understand people need to make money. (2) I did not enjoy Kona and think there are far superior places on Big Island.
Once we got there, Mike was also slow to respond to two problems we had, so it just wasn't a great experience overall.
With that said, his place is beautifully decorated, super clean and the location is fine if Kona is your thing. Road noise is definitely an issue, but it dies down at night.
