We were in Kailua-Kona for the week, but took a day trip out to Kilauea. Since we wanted to see the volcano during both the day and night, it was great to stay at Mitch's and not have to drive back to Kona after midnight. It's a simple place, but clean, comfortable and convenient. The photos actually do not do justice to how quaint the interior is. And there is a lanai or wrap-around deck that overlooks the spacious, private backyard. Mitch also provided a variety of snacks, which was a nice treat. The only minor negative was a lack of Kleenex. All in all a terrific stay, and only a short 3-minute drive to Kilauea/VNP. Thank you, Mitch!
