Nice!!!

The condo was clean, neat, and well stocked with necessary utensils. we were met by the owners daughter, who was very nice and polite. The location was pretty close to necessary needs and activities. You do need a car to get around, but be prepared to pay excessive parking fees for visits to downtown Kailua unless you go very early. the area was fun to be active by the ocean and a lovely island. I would highly recommend this condo for small groups, especially for a quiet stay.

Best Ever!!

Lori is THE BEST host we have EVER had! When I communicated to Lori about our flight troubles and we wouldn't arrive until night-time, she offered to pick up a few groceries for us. After I declined her very nice offer, Lori put some homemade papaya bread and orange juice in our refrigerator so that we could have something for breakfast when we woke up. That along with a cup of coffee, compliments of Lori, on our beautiful lanai was the perfect way to destress after a bad airport experience. Obviously, Lori truly cares about her guests. And her place is amazing! The bed was so comfortable, as was the hammock! Everything was spotless and in perfect condition. If we go back to the Big Island, we will definitely stay there again. Very highly recommend!

Great home base

Stayed with older teenager, close to a variety of beaches and a short drive to town for supplies The unit came with everything you need to hit the beach. Lori was an excellent host, even ensuring a first great morning with supplies after a late night flight arrival. We loved to use the lanai for grilling and socializing in the evening.

Wonderful Stay in Kona

We had a lovely stay and appreciated both the spacious apartment, beautiful lanai and view along with. Lori's gracious hosting. The apartment was well stocked with all that we needed for beach outings and we were greeted with delicious home made papaya bread. When I left a few items at the house, Lori made sure that I got them back. Mahalo!

About the host

Hosted by Lori Porter

I retired to the Big Island after almost 24 years working as a Foreign Service Officer, assigned to various Embassies and Consulates overseas. I love to travel and I enjoy meeting new people and learning about new cultures. I feel a strong connection to the ocean, I love beaches, swimming with sea turtles, snorkeling, sailing...Hawaii is the perfect place for all water sports! I volunteer at the Marine Mammal Center (Ke Kai Ola) in Kailua-Kona where I am part of the response and rescue team protecting the endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal. I am also a practicing glass artist with a small home glass studio. I enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle and feel extremely fortunate to have made Hawaii my home.

Why they chose this property

I chose this house because it offers the best of indoor-outdoor living. The large lanai nearly doubles the living space and I love the beautiful ocean views. It is also at the perfect elevation for gorgeous sunsets and for catching the trade winds. With a clear night sky, and very little surrounding ambient light, the stargazing from my property is amazing. I've known for many years that I wanted to retire to Hawaii, so finding this home and starting a new life on the Big Island has been a dream come true. I'm looking forward to sharing my little paradise with you!

What makes this property unique

The Big Island has so much to offer with many wonderful adventures waiting for you. I look forward to meeting you and am happy to answer any questions you may have to help make your visit to the Big Island an unforgettable experience. Aloha!
