This was our third trip to big island and we knew we wanted to be in Captain cook for great snorkelling. Just know you will be 30 to 40 minutes from Kona stores and restaurants. Otherwise this house has great location and set up. We had 7 adults and the house was perfect size. 4th bedroom is add on bedroom behind garage with 2 single beds, so i can see it being issue if you have 4 couples, deciding who stays there. We had a single, so it worked out well. Kitchen is well appointed. There are plenty of towels, and washer & dryer to keep them clean if you do the beach most days like us. We kayaked right out the front of the house almost every day. 2 double and 1 single kayak while we were there. Other gear icludes 2 bikes, 3 boogie boards, 2 beach chairs and 2 nice fishing poles. Snorkeling gear and beach shoes for 5 or 6. No hesitation in recommending this house.
