Wedding night fiasco
We were going to stay here for our wedding night before an early flight out but noticed a cockroach outside and then found a large dead one under the bed. Since there’s no AC, the windows were open when we got there but it was hotter inside than outside. We did not stay the night and informed the host. She told us they sprayed for bugs but basically to suck it up because we were in the tropics. Could have just been a bad day for her but it was not a fun experience for us unfortunately.

Terrible Stay
This property was not at all the way it was represented in the listing. When we first arrived, we were disappointed in the rental, having just left a beautiful property on the other side of the island. The place is run down, and we found black mold and ants in the bathroom. The traffic noise at night is terrible with cars revving their engines right outside the bedroom. The last straw was when my daughter found ants in her breakfast cereal and we left. The host was very rude and defensive, instead of apologizing she denied our complaints, although we had pictures and have submitted them to VRBO. She refused to refund our remaining two nights, and told us that she would only refund the box of cereal. This property is not in good condition, and is certainly not what we expected. While many owners take pride in their rentals, this one is clearly all about making profit. I would not recommend this property and feel that it should not be listed on VRBO unless significant changes are made.
Flew in for a funeral in Hawi. Just needed a place to sleep overnight before flight. Got there late, around 9pm after the funeral and going to “Laverne’s”(bar) which was less than 20 minutes away. Upon arrival I wasn’t sure which entrance to use. Owner’s son, I believe, came out to assist me get into the lockbox and into the unit. Maybe a little a little more specific instructions would help…. like: upon entering carport, unit is on the left front of house… up the stairs. Nevertheless, bed was plush (I slept like a baby). Unit was clean, affordable and close to the airport. No AC but there was a ceiling fan and 2 portable pedestal fans, plus it was winter so it was cooler. Literally, I just slept and showered there…. that’s all I needed. Nice neighborhood, where I felt safe. Would I stay there again… definitely.
I loved walking in the neighborhood in the morning looking at pretty flowers

Cute and comfortable
We just had one night here but felt very at home and comfortable in this stay. The unit had everything we could need, and it was a great location not too far from the main strip in Kona. We would stay here again!

Comfortable spot for a quick stay
I was in Kona for a night. I had a busy schedule and knew I wasn’t going to spend a lot of time relaxing in a hotel room. I didn’t want to spend a bunch for a view and access to the beach. This was a comfortable place to stay. The host greeted me when I arrived. Everything was easy.

The property is cute. I understand their note said there could be critters roaches and mice. There was ant bait on the counter also. We never saw the roaches or mice but the first night we had a few ants. The second night we weren't able to sleep we kept getting bit all night. It wasn't until morning that we realized there were little red ants all over the bed and couch. I have had a hard time reaching out to the owner or getting a response except she cleaned the place herself.
Nice Hawaiiana feel to it. Away from the Ali’i Drive “hub-bub” but close enough to get to town in minutes. Nice place to relax and they provided beach trip essentials such as cooler bag, beach chairs, etc.
