We loved Kathie's place. The patio is great for feeding the eels, watching the sea turtle feed just 20' from the patio, and seeing the schools of Yellow Tangs playing in the surf. The pool is great for cooling off after a busy day. The location is perfect. Our favorite restaurants were Huggo's & the Kona Inn Restaurant - open air seating with great views. Our favorite Hawaiian activities were; the Manta Ray Night Dive (a must), the full island helicopter tour (& the river of lava), and the snorkeling, Two Step was our favorite. Taking the Deluxe Kona Coast Snorkel & BBQ Cruise
Hula Kai Vessel 5-hr Cruise was a blast - try the SNUBA, it was a kick. Kathie was a very gracious host and responded quickly to all of our questions. Everything was great.
