The photos and written description of the home are perfectly accurate.
From the photos I had a feeling this home would be very clean and that feeling turned out to be 100% spot on. I can not think of another Airbnb we’ve stayed at that’s been this fresh. It seemed as if we were the first people to have used the bed and bath linens. The bright white sheets, pillowcases and duvet didn’t have a spot of dust let alone signs of use.
In Hawaii, where it is warm and wet all year around, it’s common for homes to develop a damp smell. You find this most often in bathrooms and kitchens. Not at this home. Not at all. Again, everything was spotless and fresh in all areas of the home.
You may notice tiny bug traps/detractors around but don’t let that worry you. They are there to keep the home bug free. We didn’t see anything creepy crawly the week we stayed.
The communication was spectacular. Responses were instant and all messages were clearly put, easy to understand, and helpful. Most communication was in anticipation of what we may ask. As example: Directions, both written and photographs the day before we were to arrive.
Check-in and check-out was flawless.
For us it was a self check-in/out process where you receive instructions from the host prior to arrival.
We had zero difficulties and found it to be straightforward.
If you are a coffee enthusiast you will be thrilled with this location. Holualoa is located in the heart of the Kona Coffee Belt. You could visit dozens and dozens of coffee farms within minutes of this home.
Another thing we really liked about this location was the mountain temperatures. Still warm during the day, but not as humid as down on the beach. We were glad to have lightweight pants and sweaters for evening.
No need for ac or heat, the temperature is just right.
We felt this home provided a great value for the money.
When we travel we appreciate all the comforts of home you just don’t get at a resort or hotel.
While this is a duplex we never heard or saw the occupants of the other home. We felt like we were in our own private oasis overlooking the ocean.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and didn’t want to leave.
