Given the purpose of your trip, I have to wonder as to your hotel justification process. When my wife and I did our research trips, we spent very little time in the hotels. We'd be gone early in the AM, gone all day, back in time for a shower and a few hours sleep. We surely didn't live there- it was strictly a place to perform some basic functions - the 3 S's. Just to be funny, I tell my wife what it was costing us per hour.
I'd also agree, staying in Kona and researching the eastside is not really feasible. A 2 1/2 hour (or 100 mile) drive on BI is far more fatiguing than same trip on the east coast mainland.
