We stayed at the King Kamehameha in Kona. There are actually tikis there. It's right at the end of Alii Dr. so you can walk to the farmers market, shops, bars, etc. They also have a sand beach and a great dive shop where we booked our Manta night dive (amazing!!!!) We could watch the triathletes go by from our balcony and their luau was fun. Prices are reasonable.
The second best sandwich in the world is right across the street! I forget the name of the place something..."almost by the sea" Wierd unc knows the name. You'll take several drives around the island but Kona is the perfect home base.
