The place was clean and spotless when we arrived, and the hosts, Juyla and Fred, were able to great us and show us around.
This was an excellent location for a rental as it allowed us to easily get to the beaches to the south of Kona (where usually the weather is less windy and more pleasant in the winter months). The rental was also very close to a shopping center with a grocery store, a drug store, a weekly farmer's market, and a weekly hula show.
The indoor and outdoor space is tastefully decorated. The covered lanai is spacious and has comfortable furniture and perfect for breakfast and dinner, and wonderful for watching sunsets. The kitchen has modern appliances and the hosts provide all the usual utensils, pots/pans, dinnerware, and small appliances like blenders and a coffee maker.
The hosts, provided plenty of clean linens and towels and even made suggestions on which beaches were best for our toddler.
