Kona Ocean View Home - Downtown, Fruit Trees, Sunset views

The host was very welcoming and the house was great.

Great space! Easy check-in/check-check out. We really enjoyed our stay.

We were a bit surprised to arrive and find the doors wide open, but I guess they were just letting in some cooler air! The place was comfortable and we enjoyed our stay! There were lots of amenities there if we had planned to go to the beach, but it was just a resting place for adventures around the island before we went on a cruise. The washer and dryer were nice to have, but the dryer was very loud!

Pros: Good location to avoid Kona traffic and be near the Kohala coast. Washer, dryer, oven, and stove work. Plenty of hot water and water pressure. Minor Cons: Upon arrival, there were no trash bags and all of the bath towels were folded but wet. Kitchen knives are extremely dull; kitchen could use a colander and larger draining rack. Pillow cases, outdoor chair cushions, and sofa cushions are stained.Larger concerns: Smoke detector is missing. Master pocket door bathroom lock is broken such that my child got stuck because the inside handle would not engage the lock but just spun in place; had to lift the pocket door up to disengage the lock. Curtains in bedroom, bedroom window blinds, and bedroom fans have black mold. In the kitchen, 2 cabinets fell off hinges when we opened them. Sofa bed and rugs need deep cleanings. We had planned to use the sofa bed but had to use a small rollaway twin bed in master bedroom because no a/c in living room. We anticipated this and had planned to open windows at night. However, every screen is full of holes and mosquitoes and flies immediately entered the house when windows opened. A broken appliance in the living room made constant chirping sound that the host did not know how to stop. Luckily, the bedroom a/c units drowned out the sound at night. I notified the host of all of these issues before we left and she said she would tend to them.
