Firstly we usually are not Airbnb users, occasionally in the past, with mixed feelings.
However, Valerie was so easy to deal with and her house was everything we expected.
We arrived Dec 27th, out January 3rd.
So we were there for the "fireworks extravaganza" on New year's eve. Every bit as described by previous clients.
The house was very user friendly, 6 adults and 4 children from 7 to 15.
Even though they have pools at home the pool was a highlight, very compact and plenty of pool toys for all.
Beds were more than acceptable with nice linen and towels, including beach and pool towels.
We used the camp/beach chairs all the time.
Neighbours seem guarded as it's a residential street, but we found them perfectly nice.
We would recommend Valerie's home in Kona for a relaxing, "view for miles" holiday to anyone.
