A lovely week in Kona
This was our family’s second trip to Kona, and we had a lovely time. The property was entirely as described. The kitchen was well equipped for all manner of meal prep - ncluding a very capable ice crushing blender for daiquiris. :). The beds and furniture were all fine and the appliances all functioned as expected- including very fast Wi-Fi.This location was much further south than we were last time which meant that a car was essential for getting into town. However it also meant trivial access to some of the very best snorkeling on the island. As divers we somewhat missed the beautiful lanai wall ladder we’d been fortunate enough to have last time but we were able to easily make the lanai rail work well to hold wetsuit hangers on the lanai side and dry our various neoprene without hanging anything over the rail. The location is also great for hopping quickly up to RT 11 to get into town instead of the slow way up Alii Dr.
With white sand beach across the street and the two condo buildings facing each other it can get a bit loud during the day (especially on the weekend) so you’ll want to keep that in mind if you’re looking for a more tranquil/quiet place. But it never prevented a post-dive nap in the bedrooms with the doors closed. And hearing the little kids playing on the beach and in the pool brought nostalgic smiles to our now teenager-having selves. :)
We had no issues at all which required any intervention from the owner, and overall simply had a wonderful stay.
