It’s perfectly located near the beach park for some good snorkeling, surfing or paddle boarding . The place itself doesn’t have a view but is steps away from the beach. We saw a lot of colorful fish but no turtles . Walking distance from a grocery store. Plenty of dining options for breakfast and dinner. Also very close to downtown Kailua-Kona which had a lot of restaurants, some nightlife, and shops. McKenna was a great host and answered all of our questions quickly. Would DEFINITELY stay again .
