This property was a little hard to find, partly because we arrived at night. Kona was very hot and humid during our visit, and we think AC would make a big difference in this rental. In addition, the neighborhood music and noise made sleeping difficult at times. It is a rental with a lot of character and we appreciated that aspect.

This was an amazing property. Penny was fantastic, and she met us out front to make sure we got in OK. The rooms were great. The set up was ideal for what we had for four people. It would comfortably sleep 6 no problem. The morning outside on the deck was perfect. This was such an ideal stay for us. I would highly recommend.

The property was spacious and well equipped for our vacation. We especially appreciated the snorkels and other beach gear offered during the stay. The place has a laid back, beachy, hippie vibe that was inviting. You do share the carport with whoever is staying in the room beneath this rental, so it's first come first serve.
