Aloha, I just stayed at Paniolo Greens, a 3 * 1 BR condo in Waikoloa for $79 per night, it was great! The room was spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The grounds were well maintained with friendly wait staff. Waikoloa is about 45 min from Kona and 2 hours from Volcano. It all depends what your plans are for your vacation. I hope this helps you! Aloha
