We had a wonderful time and would go back and stay at Jim’s condo again in a heartbeat! The condo is in a gated community, centrally located near beaches, shopping, and places to eat so we could leave the car and walk on days we weren’t planning to explore other parts of the island. It was very easy getting around the island from the resort due to its close and easy access to the highway.
The condo is beautifully appointed, very clean, and comfortable for our family of 4. Being on the top floor, we had great views out over the pool, grounds, and could see through the tops of palm trees out into the distant mountains from the living room and private laina - where we enjoyed coffee every morning. The condo has everything you need for a vacation on the Big Island, including a fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms.
Both Jim and Barbara were fantastic hosts. When we merely inquired if there was a kettle at the condo (because we didn’t see one) they responded right away by ordering one to be delivered a few days later. They are kind, generous, and very responsive hosts. We hope to visit again!
