Before we arrived we were greeted with information and tips that made our trip easier and better. Our questions were answered promptly... all foreshadowing a great experience. When we arrived all went as planned; instructions led us in without any challenges. The condo was just as described and met our expectations- was clean and comfortable. the balcony is a great place to enjoy happy hour sunsets and daybreak breakfast. Though we didn't need help it was reassuring to have a local person to contact if need be. Jeff and Britt were very accommodating. It was nice to be able to use the beach chairs, beach umbrella, cooler and boogie boards for our family. We left another boogie board at the condo too. The snorkelling and surfing across the street is wonderful to have. The snorkelling was good and it was well protected for kids. The beach is rocky and not a "sand castle beach". The pool was good - though not family friendly - no toys/floats allowed. That's understandable though- its hard to please all. About the only minor "niggle" was that the air conditioning had a 4 hr timer - which meant waking up warm at night and going to turn on the timer. I suspect that many would not have been bothered by this though.

The location is great- busy Kona is easily accessible by trolley or car, yet the quietness of the neighborhood of the condo was a special treat for us. Kona and the big island have so much to offer, great weather, beaches snorkelling, adventure hikes... All in all - terrific - hope to be back soon and will stay here again. Many thanks.
