“Ali’s home is a refuge and a delight. He has imbued the house with light and convenience for weary travelers. Ali and his team were incredibly responsive and gracious. The house is a wonderful outpost ideally located between old and new Kona and across the mellow street from one of the best beaches on the BI. Our family of four ended every day body surfing at the beach and enjoying the sunsets...long story short, this home and the hosts are a gem. Pro tip, get to know the surf shop folks next door, they are amazing!”
