Located about 30 minutes' drive from the Kona airport (KOA), this special property is an updated home in the old Kona style, with tropical decor in a casual, comfortable setting, situated diagonally across the street from Honl's beach. You can walk into Kona town or stay home and dine on the private roof deck overlooking the blue Pacific, watching the sun set. The property has a spacious lawn, with lots of shade from large banyan and monkeypod trees on one end and a rubber tree on the other. This is not a luxury rental but is very comfortable, and the location can't be beat. Though the property is within easy walking distance to town, it offers a private setting, with a lovely lawn and large shade trees. The home offers an airy open floor plan, with a comfortable tropical decor throughout and features a well stocked kitchen with large dining counter, a living room with a flat screen TV, a bathroom with shower, and a guest room with full closet and a queen bed. Additionally there is a separate room which can be closed off, adjacent to the guest room, with a full bed, in case two singles wish to occupy the house (but 2 guests maximum, please.) There is a laundry alcove out behind the house, with washer and dryer, and a back deck with full Weber barbecue. From there, stairs lead up to the private roof deck with dining table and chairs to enjoy the panoramic ocean views across the street. You'll have access to the property and grounds including private parking. Steve and Diane, the owners, will be happy to respond to any phone, text or email queries about any issue or questions whatsoever. The location of this home is truly ideal if you're looking for a property that isn't a cookie cutter condo but still gives you easy access to Kona town and it's dining options and night life. It's a 10 to 15 minute walk to town, and Honl's beach is across the street to the right, about a minute away. The "KONA TROLLY " is a great way to take a relaxing tour of Kona Town, or a rest while walking around. You will park on the property, right next to your island home.
