Absolutely awesome place to stay -- thank you to the hosts! Description and pictures were true to the property, everything was clean and well cared for, lanai was beautiful (amazing view!), sofa bed was much appreciated (the property sleeps six people in three beds w/ the sofa bed included). Excellent shower, nice place to park. Less than 15 minutes driving to the center of Kona and 10 minutes to the airport. Host was responsive to any inquiries. No excessive cleaning expectations on check-out unlike some properties. Really well furnished kitchen -- even an electric kettle for hot water. This is the upper level of a two-story duplex type house with an exterior wooden staircase up to the door. Loved hearing the roosters in the yard in the morning and the frogs at night (even though I know they're invasive). Ceiling fans and abundant windows were enough to keep us comfortable. Would not hesitate to stay here again and recommend to others.
View straight out from the lanai (porch), looking down the mountain to the ocean.

Fabulous property

Property is amazing. Great location and amazing neighborhood. While convenient to everything, it is outside of the crazy business of the kona tourist area. Lots of snacks upon arrival with well equipped kitchen. Great beds to sleep on and a television in all rooms. Very easy to communicate with the owner as well. Would not hesitate to stay here again Thank you Charlotte for a great experience.

We had a fantastic stay at this charming apartment! The location was perfect for exploring the town and the apartment itself was clean and homely. It’s part of what I believe to be 4 apartments. We didn’t encounter any issues with others living there or surrounding homes. Make note that if you are planning on visiting in the warmer months that with the windows being open you will be hearing the Kokee frogs throughout the night and the roosters early in the morning. Only problem was a WiFi problem and it was easily resolved the following morning. But all in all we’d absolutely recommend her place to anyone visiting Kona.

Beautiful views and a comfortable stay

We really enjoyed the views from the Lanai and the comfortable accommodations. The beds were soft and comfortable. The kitchen was great and it was nice to be able to cook a few meals. We also used the beach chairs and beach toys that were provided which was a great perk.

Avoid at all cost

When we arrived at the property, it was pouring rain. Every window and sliding door was wide open with all fans on high speed. Aside from the security issues of walking into an unsecured residence, there was a very poignant chemical smell (scent machine and mold combo) throughout the apartment. We were there 15 minutes and all immediately got headaches. The smell would not disipate. We contacted the host and she suggested we open the windows. Again, every window was open before we ever arrived. It was concerning that she was unaware of this. We shared our concerns about the safety of the property and she stopped communicating. Rather than continuing to get sick, we put our safety first and left within 20 min of our arrival. We immediately informed the host of this. As it was late in the evening, we had no where to stay. As a result, we had to rebook airfare and shorten our vacation. The host denies any safety issue and refuses to refund anything. She even continues to insist on charging the cleaning fee when the property was never used. We stayed at two other properites on the island and had no issues whatsoever. This property does not represent what the island has to offer, AVOID IT!! We had a great vacation up till this point and are disappointed in this host & property.

Excellent, responsive hosts - well appointed home

Host/managers were quick to respond and fix some minor issues that cropped up at the start of our 10 day stay. House is well-appointed and we made use of washer/dryer. I actually looked forward to hearing the frogs each night, and the roosters crowing in the morning. The covered deck was really nice since we had a lot of rain. Plenty of towels. Full size fridge. Large bed is very comfy and soft.
