Nanette's home is beautifully decorated and brighter and lighter than it looks in the photos. It had everything we needed. The lanai was dreamy. The neighborhood is peaceful and beautiful. If you want to be away from the mad crush of humanity in the Kailua-Kona area and don't mind driving a little (and if you're going to the Big Island, I'm sure you're planning to do a lot of driving), then this place is perfect. It's closer to Volcanoes National Park and the Hilo side of the island, and makes those drives more doable.
Pebbles Beach at the bottom of the hill has some pretty strong waves most of the time, but is lovely. The drive into the neighborhood is on a very steep grade, but don't be intimidated! We rented a tiny, Chevy Spark and it handled itself very well going up and down the hill with no problems. After getting used to it, driving up and down the hill became fun for us.
Nanette is a gracious, responsive, super nice and super helpful host. We used her list of free things to do around the island a lot. Her recommendations were more often a hit with us than the guidebook we used. We would highly recommend this home to anyone.
