Coqui!
Lived in Kona for three years while working at that beautiful airport - all outdoors!
Went back in 2014 for a two week vacation and rented a beautiful vrbo house near Holualoa as we were celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary and my parent’s 60th.
While driving back to the house after going out to dinner on our first night there, noticed an ear piercing noise coming from a small stream in the area... yes it was the nuisance coqui frogs. Yikes!! They come out at dusk and are as loud as a jet engine.
Read up efforts to eradicate these devils but seems like they are there to stay, as they have no known predators on da big island. First thought was how this will really hurt real estate values and what it will do to the visitor industry. What a shame, as people go to Hawaii to relax, which is not possible with these frogs around.
Good decision to sell while you can, but I hear it’s now required to disclose the presence of coqui when you list property.
Good luck. I loved living in Kona (Palisades) and the Big Island in the late 1990’s and exploring all the uniqueness it has to offer.

Kona is wonderful if you can do without the big city. It is still very much a small town feel here, but we have a wonderful, uncrowded international airport! The medical choices are Kaiser, HMSA, Medicaid and ACA. My experience with Kaiser in Kona has been stellar. Good luck!
