The house is very modern with nice furnitures and clean decors. It has high ceilings and top to bottom glass door that looks over the Pacific Ocean and the forest. The view is just breathtaking from the living room and the lanai. The house is next to a highway but you can only hear traffic noise if you sit outside in the lanai. The location of the house is perfect to explore the big island. It’s in the middle between Kailua Kona and Captain cook with many good restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery stores nearby. We didn’t cook but the kitchen had everything you would need to cook a meal including basic condiments (oil, salt, pepper, seasoning, coffee). The house had all the amenities for our one week stay (soap, shampoo, body wash, plenty of towels, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent). We drove all over the island and stayed one night at the volcanoes NP because we wanted to explore Hilo. There was ants issue while we were there but the owner was responsive to address the problem
