This house was a fabulous place to stay. We arrived from the Midwest at 10 pm and had the owners directions to the house from Kona airport. We had no difficulty finding the house at all. Due to the lateness of our arrival we were blown away by the incredible view from the lanai when we got up our first morning there. We found the house to be well stocked and the owners labeled cupboards that made it very easy to find everything. The bathrooms were well stocked in case we forgot toiletries. We pretty much lived on the lanaii soaking up the view and relaxing with a glass of wine before using the gas grill to make some wonderful meals. The geckos were fun to watch while out on the lanai. We did lots of day trips to the local beaches, south point, black sand beach, volcano park, macadamia nut factory, coffee plantation, hilo harbor and charter fishing. The house was well located in Kona Paradise which was about 20 miles south of Kona. The drives everywhere we went were so scenic and picture taking was plentiful. We went to Kona to celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary and the trip was everything we hoped for and more. We would definitely recommend this house. The owners have thought of everything and supplied information and directions to all of the area attractions. They were very accommodating and you can't stay in a hotel and have the pleasure of cooking local fare and enjoy an amazing view for the price of this house. We hope to return to the big island and if this house is available we would definitely stay here again. Aloha!
