This is our second time in Kona and we enjoyed staying with Vanessa. From communication prior to our arrival to the welcome touch of local fruits and treats, Vanessa did a good job making us feel at home. While there was no A/C in the unit and it can get really hot when we cooked in the evenings, the room is in a shaded area, and the evening air is fresh and cool. Compared to the other place we stayed before, Vanessa’s area doesn’t seem to have too many chatty frogs, which was a surprise delight. Great location and value overall.
