We loved our stay at South Kona studio! The photos don’t do it justice. We LOVED the location. It is tucked away from the tourist scene of town and yet perfectly central to explore all the Big Island has to offer, literally on a beach but also driving distance to the volcanos. Can we say PRIVATE BEACH!?! The beach is about 1min by car or scenic short walk and has to be the best snorkeling and swimming on the island. We were literally the only people at the beach.
The studio has spectacular, jaw-dropping ocean views and front row seats to the world's most amazing sunsets. We were even able to watch humpback whales breaching! The studio itself is extremely well equipped with everything you need for a perfect Hawaiian holiday. We found it to be spotlessly clean and colorfully decorated with vintage furnishings and Hawaii-eqsue items. The patio is very private with BBQ and outdoor furnishing. I can't stress how quiet and tranquil the setting is, you can even hear the whales making noise, splashing, and spouting.
The host, Kristina, obviously really cares about her guests and has the best insider tips and goes out of her way to ensure we were happy, well informed and comfortable. I wish we had more time here. Way better than advertised. Five stars. We will be back!
