Rural Hawaii stay
We stayed at this property for 10 days in Oct and had a marvelous time.
Pros:
- very clean
- nice touches like good quality draperies, dishes and bedding, good appliances and well stocked kitchen. It is not fancy, but nice
- good communication with hosts; friendly people but not intrusive
- jaw dropping panorama views of the lush slope, with the ocean beyond and magical sunsets
- veranda is not pictured in the photos and it was better than expected: quite large with decent furniture including small dining table as well as coffee table and chairs, and 2 comfy lounge chairs.
- Even if it was 29 or 30 degrees celsius during the day, it cooled off nicely at night. In fact some nights we had to close the windows as it was a bit too cool for us. I wished I had brought a sweater for the evenings, but there were blankets in a trunk
- this is a rural area so you will hear frogs, neighborhood dogs, goats/ sheep bleating. With the dawn the roosters start to crow. What you won't hear is annoying people noise.
Cons:
- The road to Kona is a very curvy, but has reflectors which makes it doable in the dark. Arriving late in the dark it was a bit tricky finding the right door
-if you plan to see Volcano Park / S Point, as well as Kona this is a great halfway point. If you plan to do most of your activities in the Kona area or N, expect to drive that curvy road alot. Affordable groceries were an hour north. Our favorite beach was Kahalu'u, which was 45 min north.
