Had a very pleasant stay at David's studio in the house that is (to my understanding) completely rental. The studio was very clean, cozy and had pretty much everything that I needed. There was a women's bike that David let me use which was great without a car. Magic sands beach with a lovely heaiu is very close and the Keauhou shopping center (&Farmer's market) is an easy & fast access by bike or car. Kailua-Kona is also within a reasonable biking but not too close if you like to have a little more of peace and quiet. David is a very helpful host although I didn't see him much during my stay. All in all, good value for money and a great place!
