This is a great budget stay in a convenient location. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the waterfront/Kona town. Onsite parking is a huge plus, you won’t find free parking at most of the hotels and almost all of the parking in Kona town is paid parking now so the quick walk to town is nice. There are grocery stores within walking distance, so you can easily make use of the full kitchen in this place. Photos in listing are a good representation of the property. There is a sliver of an ocean view from the lanai. We were here in March and it was definitely cold enough at night to use a blanket with just the windows open. Ample fans. Host had excellently communication. I would stay here again!

This is an amazing place. The location is perfect. So close to so much. It was like stepping back in time to traditional Hawaii. We appreciated the spotless and welcoming atmosphere. We loved that there was no TV and we got to listen to nature. The small touches with having beach towels for guests, beach amenities like snorkels and boogie boards, washer and dryer to use and well kept yard. We will come stay again. Thank you so much.

This is a totally comfortable apartment on the same property as the owners house. There's one bedroom with a queen bed and two double beds on a screened in porch. Everything is a bit on the worn and comfortable side. It's a great location, has a little kitchen and plenty of space. We would definitely stay again in Kona.
