Jay's place was absolutely perfect. Although it is located south of Kona, anywhere you want to go is easily reached. Jay thinks of everything too - the home is loaded with every conceivable necessity! The bed was comfy, the internet was a little spotty but this gets your kids up and going! It was safe and Jay made us the best homemade lemon meringue pie (from his lemon tree). Jay was easily reached for answers and suggestions to the island adventures. The shower was great, there were plenty of luxurious cushy towels, and the closet was full of everything from snorkel gear to extra paper towels.
We highly recommend Jay and his place in Capt Cook! Oh, and don't forget to hit South Point, the neighboring green sand beach (4x4 is necessary) and of course Black Rock Pizza, a coffee tour with Greenwell Farms and just hanging with the local people.
