This was a perfect location for a group of enthusiastic freedivers on the island for Martin Stepanek’s annual Kona Freediving camp. Perfectly located between Kona town (about 15 min.) and Two-step (about 30 min.) for the best freediving spot in the country. The airport is 30 minutes. Great beach a couple minutes’ walk away with beautiful Hawaii ocean conditions.
Seven adults on this trip and we all fit in the four bedrooms. (one bed was cushions on the floor, but he was comfortable.) The two-sink, full fridge/freezer, clean, roomy kitchen allowed us to make most of our meals there. And the clothes washer/dryer even had nice smelling laundry detergent. The lanai has lounging furniture and a dining table and overlooks the pool and the ocean. We ate every meal out there. We didn’t see whales spouting this trip, but in-season I bet you do. The pool is awesome too. Good size for hanging out in the deep or shallow. Keauhou shopping center is close by for take-away poke, groceries, restaurants and other stores.
No one in our group reported a single mosquito bite and there are no coqui frogs in the neighborhood to keep you up at night.
Sandra was responsive to all questions we had during our stay.
The only problem I have is that this review might result in huge demand and a price increase that I won’t be able to afford in the future. If that doesn’t happen, I’m coming back.
