This was an exceptional place to stay in Kona. It was far enough out of town and away from the beach so there was no cars driving by all night, no loud music, no sirens, no horns honking --- just listening to the frogs sing. Easy to sleep all night with the windows open and cool breeze coming in. The full kitchen was well equipped and had all we needed. I would definitely stay here again and this will be the first place i check when i book my next trip to the Big Island.

We had a wonderful experience at this location. The apartment was clean and very comfortable. The location was very peaceful with superb views of the ocean (conveniently located close to the airport). Most major stores ie Walmart etc. are situated close by. We would highly recommend staying at this very comfortable and affordable apartment for short or long term stays.

The one bedroom studio is downstairs from the homeowners who were very attentive but also did not hover over me during our stay. It was private with my own stovetop, toaster oven and microwave in the kitchen, and bathroom with shampoo, conditioner and body wash already provided. Lots of beach gear to use like snorkel gear, a surfboard, and towels even if I didn’t need to use them. I was also greeted with apple bananas, papayas and lychee during my first stay, and when I returned for a second check in a week later I had a huge local pineapple waiting for me. I appreciated that very much. Overall it was a very peaceful stay. There is a friendly cat and a family dog that are both adorable. I also caught a wild chicken and a coqui frog roaming the yard which were pretty cool. At night the sound of coqui frogs were at first a little difficult to sleep through but after the 3rd night they were like a musical serenade that put me to bed right away. The views overlooking the rest of the city and the ocean sunset were gorgeous from the top of the hill. And the local vegetation, including mangoes, bananas and papayas, or the avocados and tomatoes made this stay extra special. This stay was just what I needed and I’ll definitely be back!

Room is big and clean, close to airport, 10 minutes drive to Costco. Trail and coffee farm nearby, also a food mart with 1 minute driving. Nice yard with fruit trees, bedroom facing sea, you can even watch sunset there. You can find everything you need in kitchen, and never feel hot inside the apartment, because it is in the mountain. Good place to spend 1 week there.

The good: property in a quiet neighborhood about 6 miles from the resort area of Kona; nice garden, birdsongs all around; host very generous with lending beach equipment, had beers and wine and bits of garden fruits available; very well equipped kitchen; bathroom supplies good.
The bad: No restaurants and one market nearby so some people might want to be closer to tourist centers; no place to put toiletries in bathroom; sitting room had uncomfortable sofa and no coffee table and cramped eating area; little or no sound-proofing between basement apartment and upstairs; when the upstairs tenant was there there was a lot of stomping around, even sounded like pounding and furniture moving, one night as late as 3 a.m.

Karen and Roberts place gives you a real sense of what it’s like to live in Hawaii. This is real family life, with a beautiful cat, Lucky who comes to visit every morning. You have everything you need for cooking, the neighborhood is wonderful for walking, and the view of the Pacific is breathtaking.

We enjoyed our stay in this 1 bedroom basement apartment. We were happy to find a place that accepted our 2 small dogs. The property is huge with lots of greenery and very secluded. Therefore it was great for our dogs! It’s at the 1500 foot level so much cooler and more cloudy/rainy than in town which we really enjoyed. Lots of great roads for evening walks. Our dogs LOVED all of the wild chickens and turkeys running free in the area. The owners were always very friendly and helpful. The unit was a comfortable size and had a full sized kitchen for cooking meals.

If you’re looking for somewhere to stay that feels like you’re staying with old friends, this is the place. The property itself is gorgeous-fruit trees, flowers, fire pit, amazing sunsets, all here. It was immaculately prepared for us with loads of extra towels and things to do, including beach gear. We never ever saw a bug inside and we were there for a month! Super convenient to be able to do your laundry on site and for free. They have a sweet little cat and an adorable dog who wears a different shirt everyday. The hosts were very communicative and fast acting when we needed something. Overall, the best home away from home we’ve ever experienced!
