Valerie's and Larry's condo was quiet, comfortable, clean and well equipped. They truly have thought of everything to make the stay more enjoyable. If you don't have a car there is a free trolley stop several blocks away that comes every hour (check schedule for Route 201 Hele-On). We finally rented a car to explore the island which was costly but worth it. The walk to the restaurants and resorts on Aliʻi Drive is about 30 minutes from the condo and not very pleasant in the rain. LOTS of traffic. The pool area and sunsets at Kona Shores are spectacular! If you are planning to BBQ, be sure to get charcoal and sign up for the recreational area. The laundry was nearby and very convenient using a prepaid App. I would highly recommend this condo if you like to prepare some of your own meals, want a little more space, and like getting away from the crowds. During the week, it's extremely quiet and peaceful.
