A quiet place not very far from the beach and well furnished. The kitchen is well-equipped and the dryer-washer comes of great use when returning from the beach. Very close to the amazing market/restaurants at Kailua. Though to be honest, the kind of place Kona is, you would hardly spend any time inside the house but the little time we did spend, we ended up well rested.
Paying attention to small things like supplying an after sun-exposure lotion, tips to see places around all make it a great experience to stay here.
Eric himself is a great host and helped accommodate our last minute request. He was quick to respond and easily reachable over mail.
Would stay here again whenever we visit Kona.
PS: for people planning to visit Volcano national park, be prepared for a long 90 miles drive to Hilo.
