"staff response quickly and the service is great"

"Avi and his wife Orna have truly been amazing hosts! We could have not been more grateful to stay at their place. When we arrived in Kona, unfortunately we had some mishaps with getting dinner before check in as we landed late and the place we chose was closing early. Upon knowing this, Avi and Orna were so kind to make us a simple, yet fulfilling plate of avocado toast and fruit/snacks. Second, when we had to pick up our rental car the next day, Avi kindly offered to drive us to enterprise. I appreciate that he would also invite us for morning coffee inside his house. Location wise, it was the perfect spot near downtown and other areas to visit in the big island. The views of our place were especially beautiful. For the price, it was definitely more affordable than hotels and parking was easy for our rental car. Avi also provided stuff that we could use for beach activities such as boogie boards, ice cooler, beach chairs, towels, and even bug spray/sun care spray/first aid if needed. Although we shared their guest house, we still felt like it was our own private home. Avi also had great communication in the app, especially when he updated us that a wildfire could affect a highway going home when we were in Hilo. It was our first time using Vrbo, and I surely will look again for any future travel accommodations. If I ever come back to the big island, I will definitely book with Avi again! I highly recommend their hospitality as they made our Hawaii trip super memorable. "

"Nice little studio in a good location. I mostly wanted easy access to the airport for an early morning flight and this worked great. But there also a lot of good things to do in the area. I would stay here again."

"We had a great time and Duane was a great and responsive host! Great views, so close to the bay and snorkeling and surfing! The parking spot was a little small for our big rental but worked!Would return and recommend this spot!"

"This home was a great location to beaches and restaurants. The front porch was awesome!"

"We had a WONDERFUL stay, rooms were comfortable and super clean!! You cannot see the ocean from the surfer room, but there is a wonderful outdoor kitchen/Lanai just up the stairs where we could see a mildly obstructed view of the ocean. We will def be back! "

"This was truly a gorgeous property, with a lovely balcony sitting directly over a beautiful shoreline. The house was clean and well stocked. Highly recommend. "

"The property exceeded all of our expectations. Everything was spotless and the decor was great. The Host provided everything we needed to enjoy our trip. Host was very responsive to all communications. We will be returning and hopefully able to stay again."
