Hale Kona Studio was a great vacation launch pad for our week on the Big Island. It was clean and close to the excitement of Kona, but also offered a quiet break with a lovely ocean and sunset view from the lanai. Great restaurants nearby and Ed was very responsive to any questions, but also hands off offering privacy during our stay. We made many day trips from this location and loved returning to our Airbnb to fall asleep to the sounds of frogs and woke up daily laughing and crowing like roosters inspired by the feathered residents. We'd definitely stay again!
