I highly recommend staying at Katya's listing. The house is in a great area, close to Safeway, Walmart, Kona Brewing, many beautiful beaches and the airport. It is a nice, quiet area/street. The house was exceptionally clean and beautiful inside and out. The landscaping on the property is beautiful, and it made it feel private. The beds were comfortable, and we had everything we needed including shampoo and conditioner. We forgot to bring sunscreen and were very happy to find plenty of sunscreen, aloe and lotions in the cabinet. It was so nice to have laundry, a grill, and a dishwasher. The lanai is private and has wonderful sunset views! We enjoyed spending evenings there watching the sunset and grilling our dinner. We were also very happy to find Tommy Bahama beach chairs and plenty of towels (beach and bath) available. Boogie boards and snorkel gear were also available. There was even a cooler which we loved. Katya was so hospitable. She opened up the windows and doors prior to our arrival to cool the house down, and there was fresh papaya and avocados in the kitchen. She responded to my questions almost immediately. This is a great option if you are looking for a nice place to stay in Kailua-Kona!
