Nanette's property is absolutely phenominal in every way, if you have an opportunity to book this place, jump on it! The location is a very short drive from the airport, and a short drive to down-town Kona as well. There is ample parking space for free, which is all well lit at night. Laundry and clean linens are available and located downstairs.
The room itself was very spacious, clean, and well-made for us when we arrived. There was a microwave, hot water kettle, coffee machine, rice cooker, griddle, refrigerator, any plates/silverware/mugs/cooking utensils you could require, and some coffee grounds and tea bags available upon arrival as well. All of these small additions to the room truly enhanced our experience while visiting Kona, and I can say without a doubt that our entire trip was improved significantly due to Nanette's care as a host.
Nanette even offered and took the time to set up one of the futon's in the living room as a bed for us before we arrived. She had fruit juices in the refrigerator for us upon arrival too, it was truly a first-class place to stay, and I haven't even mentioned the sunset view yet!
Making breakfast in the morning on the lanai and watching the geckos crawl around the porch, listening to the frogs at night after watching some of the most beautiful sunsets I've seen from one of the best places around Kona, this place cannot be beat...
If you are debating staying here or a place in/near downtown Kona, I would pick here 20 times out of 10.
