Cute place but disappointed in the TV since it stopped working on day 1. Day 3 we fixed ourselves. Communication was slow about a solution for TV and was via email and never received a call. Sitting is on bed was needed since its a studio but the bed kept moving away from wall. Coffee maker requires pods so I donated a reusable pod so hawaiian ground coffee can used and less trash for environment.

We were sad to see this was not what it said on the booking. There is no ocean views from the room. The AC barely gave any cool air so the room was always hot. They only gave a half a roll of TP for the week. People on site were not friendly. Parking is horrible. It is in a central spot for walking. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Cross the highway is the ocean, but mostly private. Very little beach area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Good location, clean, comfortable bed. Only needed counter stools or some form of chairs to sit inside, other than on the bed. It was fine for the few days we needed.

The place was nice but there were a few problems. The shower hot water was only luke warm. There was hot water in the sinks but the shower control knob would not fully turn on. We reported the problem, but the maintenance person never followed up as it was not fixed. The front door and screen door was hard to open. The patio screen door and door was very hard to open. There is no dining table inside and the outdoor table was very hard to get to because of the sticking door. There was no bath soap in the shower.

This was a great little unit conveniently located across the street from the beach and walking distance from all the shops of Kailua. Parking in the complex was limited and we used street parking along the road. Nice home base for exploring the Kona side of the island.
