Summary: Loved our stay! Down n dirty Wins Location , park like yard, en-suite, dishwasher, big main bath, so many extra outside beach gear, high end comfy bed, option for air (not needed, see below), privacy, labeled lights/remotes Opportunities Washer 10$/load, should be listed so renters don’t count on using it Updated toaster oven Labeling cupboards/drawers Cooler, ice packs 4 ⭐️ for cleaning, was fine but not up to our normal standards Hubby n I flew in to Kona so we had to drive across the island & hence We checked in very late in the dark but thankfully the car port was light up and made it easier to find (since Google stops you next door!). At first we were concerned that the air wasn’t on and everything was open but we soon found out air was not needed. The fresh air and cool breeze was perfect with the ceiling fan. The master bed n pillows were so comfy. The small porch off the master was great to sit on and enjoy coffee and the beautiful yard. We loved the beautiful vibrant colored geckos who came to visit us on the porch and we wanted to tape the frogs so we could play it all night at home! So peaceful. The place is definitely big enough for 2 couples or family of 4.n Plenty of seating and large bathroom n shower with good pressure. Neighborhood was quiet and it was perfect location for us because we wanted to see the volcano park and the Hilo attractions and it was smack in the middle. Gas n groceries nearby. Host very responsive n helpful.
