Breezy Lodging on Second Floor
Our host was very friendly, checked us in personally and showed us all the beach toys we could use--towels, cooler, umbrella, chairs, boogie boards, masks/snorkels. A lot of useful gear. He also suggested good snorkeling spots. The upstairs rooms had plenty of fans, was well-stocked for our stay, and we had so much room--three queen beds for just the two of us. The screened-in lanai was a cool spot for taking evening refreshments after sunset. Grocery shopping and "downtown" were just a short walk away. We enjoyed this spot as home base, but we were out playing day and night while we finished up our Kona stay. Thank you Marc for hosting us!

Don’t miss it!
My two teen kids and I LOVED this place. It is beautiful and has a ton of character, we were so sad we o Lu got to stay for one night and really hope we can return someday. Hosts are exceptionally kind and interesting people, don’t miss a chance to chat with them a bit. I stayed at six places on my trip and this was definitely my favorite. Location is great too for walking into Kona town or getting to most other places n the island.

Comfortable stay with a retro vibe
The Flying Honu is a nice laid-back option for couples who aren’t into the resort scene. We appreciated the kitchen with a small stove where we could make a simple dinner before walking less than a mile down to Ali’i Drive. The location is a densely packed residential area, so there were some barking dogs and some traffic noise (not too close, but audible from the major roads nearby), so a head’s up for light sleepers. Mahalos to Marc for providing a convenient and comfortable stay.

Perfect on a budget
The place is clean and well equipped. It's a convenient location although there are some noisy dogs in the neighborhood. Hawaii has become so probatively expensive, it was nice to find a place where a family can stay comfortably and have a host who is so generous with towels and snorkel equipment and other necessities.

What a fantastic experience. Host was entirely accommodating and friendly. Property was convenient and quaint. It was a perfect experience for three friends topping off their island visit.
