Hale O Tutu is a great place to stay in Kona. We found it convenient to popular beaches and the airport. The host was friendly and accommodating with a variety of beach gear and towels. Hale O Tutu was well stocked for everything a visitor needs, just to name a few (cooking supplies, coffee, tea, filtered water and driving maps). I would return if presented the opportunity. If you're visiting Kailua Kona, I would recommend staying with Clem and his ohana!
