We had great time here. This condo is beautifully situated, comfortable and quiet and naturally results in one reducing the speed of life . It is well known that there are unique experiences to be had on Hawaii Big Island when your open for it. High points for us were to watch the stars on a moonless night on the mountain and the early mornings snorkling on the coral reef at Two Step, which is a mere 20 minute drive away. The nearby beaches are also nice. To get the most of it, you do need need car, as is the case for anywhere on this island, but rental rates are extremely affordable. Even without a car, the condo is at walking distance from the Sheraton and the bay from where a lot of excursions go, including unique experiences as nighttime snorkling with manta rays and morning swins with spinner dolphins.
