It Was The Perfect Hawaii Vacation-We'll Be Back!

We had the best vacation of our lives, because we had the best accommodations , the best customer service, and we were in the exclusive area right on Alii Drive !!! The home had absolutely everything we needed, everything we could want, and more. We had all the comforts of home, and a lot of things we don't have at home too. I don't have cloth napkins at my house. We were really able to totally relax, lay in the sun, swim in a beautiful pool, and we could walk to either the ocean course or the mountain course of Kona Country Club, with the restaurant and bar right there serving breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I forgot my hair dryer and there was one in each bathroom. Everything was new,and the kitchen was one I wished I had at my own home. Listening to the birds sing or the luau music was so soothing and it made me know that we were in paradise. I had never stayed at a place that had FREE nationwide long distance phone, so we could keep in touch with everyone, and I had never stayed at a place that had FREE high speed internet for my laptop. We were in heaven!!! We were close to everything, we could walk to Kahalu Beach to snorkel, swim, or surf. We could walk to Keauhou Bay to snorkel or swim. We always jog or walk each day at home and Alii Drive is famous for it's jogger friendlyness, as it's where the IronMan Race is held each year. We had ocean views from both bedrooms , the living room, the dining area, and the dining area on the beautiful tiled lanai, in addition to ample seating on the lanai and a great Gas BBQ for our use. We mostly had the pool to ourselves on a regular basis as there are only 48 units in the quiet stone complex and half of the owners seem to be snowbirds and that made for a totally uncrowed environment. We were close to everything on island, which made it perfect for day trips to the volcano's, the waterfalls, the beaches, & shopping.There is even a free trolly that goes up and down Alii Drive to take the kids places when we were relaxing. This is truly a home away from home and we will certainly come back next year, and will recommend it to all of our friends and relatives.Everything was clean, and the grounds were always manicured to match the country club grounds that it sits on. Sitting on the lanai watched the kids at the pool, watched the golfers tee off, & watched the most beautiful sunsets in the world or the waves at Keauhou Bay. We loved it so much we stayed an extra week, as we didn't want to go home.IT WAS PERFECT !!!
