Stunning Location, Pounding Waves, Cultural Presence

Aloha Condos was prompt and efficient in processing our reservation. The unit
was in good condition and the location was incomparable: you could get
splashed by the surf on the lava rocks just sitting on your lanai. It's a short
drive into Kona town and it was handy to have the shopping center, cinema,
and post office a short walk up the hill. Just a heads-up, the directions we
received from Aloha were backwards on the turn onto Alii; (should've said left,
not right). We ended up in the shopping center, but figured it out from there.
Also, we had no idea that lots of beach stuff was stored under the stairs (did
we miss a note somewhere?), so ended up buying some items we didn't need.
Right outside the door is a significant historical cultural site, a reminder of the
highly structured indigenous society which preceded corporate dominance of
the islands.
