Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Originally, we did not book this location we moved by property management due to issues at another location. Not gonna lie I was really hesitant about going to this location because it didn’t have AC but it ended up being OK without it. My family including two young children stayed here and they loved it. This location had great left behind items for use such as umbrellas, body boards, chairs etc. The property was extremely clean and supplied all the things to maintain it during our 10 day stay. There were a couple of items that were damaged that property management was aware of one being the railing on one of the balconies ideally with kids I would’ve liked to had that fixed prior but it did not impact our stay. The property is older and has shutter windows, which could use some maintenance but overall we had a great time at this location and would stay there again in a heartbeat even without AC and I never thought I could say that. The property offered plenty of fans to keep air circulating wherever we were along with all the ceiling fans. Overall the stay was great and we’d be happy to rent this location with Knutson & Associates.

We had a truly great stay and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The home was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, easily accommodating our family of four without ever feeling crowded. Everyone had plenty of room to relax and enjoy our time together, which made the trip even more enjoyable. Although there was no air conditioning, the fans in the home were enough to keep us comfortable.We also appreciated how responsive and attentive the owner was.Overall, we would absolutely consider coming back again in the future. Highly recommended!

I stayed at this property for three weeks. The property is in an excellent area - central to many activities, with access to restaurants, grocery stores, and other amenities. The unit is clean, well appointed, and has everything you need to be a true home away from home. I hope to stay t here again next time I am on the Big Island.

We absolutely loved our stay. Perfect for our family and so close to all the restaurants and shopping. They provided us coolers, snorkeling gear, chairs and everything we needed for our activities. We would highly recommend

Still really enjoyed our stay, been to the big island many times before, just wish the unit had air conditioning. It definitely needs it. We were here in late August and wouldn't get even to 80 degrees until after 11 pm.
