Could not have been happier! Cozy, comfortable, and in a quiet neighborhood. Roll out of bed and make yourself a cup of Kona coffee while you decide how to enjoy your day. A coffee maker, microwave and mini fridge, beach chairs, towels, and a cooler for venturing out are all there. Joan has extensive knowledge of where to explore in the area and beyond. I loved this location, as you are 10 miles from the beaches of the Kohala Coast on one side, and about 20 miles from Honokaa on the other. Rent a bike in town to explore the area by road or mtn bike, or head down to Waipio to hike the valley, or explore Kalopa forest on foot or mtn bike. Tons of good places to eat nearby, and all the amenities you need in a small town away from the bustle of Kona.
