Pleasant and affordable stay on the Kona side of the Big Island. The space is attached to the rest of the house, but is still sanctioned off and private; the only shared space is some of the outdoor space. We were able to cook, store things in the fridge, and use their cooler for our travels throughout the western side of the island. Though distance-wise it's not super close to town, traffic isn't an issue and getting to town took 15 min and most of the beaches worth going to are 15-20 min away. Basically one of the closest places you could get at this price range as most of the development close to the beaches are resorts. Location is also a straight shot to Mauna Kea, Waimea, and the northern part of the island.
