Here's one I found this morning. This little house is located in a very remote section of the island with no good access to beaches. Yet here it is HIGHLIGHTED in the BEACHES category, tagged with Pohue Beach. Pohue Beach is not accessible except by 4WD and with the permission of neighboring property owners, whose land you have to cross. It's a tiny sand spit of beach. Probably not much bigger than "Beans Beach."
Are guests going to scream when they check in, realizing they are nowhere near any beach, let alone Pohue Bay? Leave a bad review, demand a refund? These geotags are literally giving the wrong information about where these places are located and what they have access to.
They should hire me to do a check on the Big Island listings' accuracies. Don't know a thing about IT like you do, but I do know where the beaches are and exactly where the properties are in relation to the beaches they are tagged to. (Except for "Beans beach," I have never heard of it! Yet it appears hundreds and hundreds of Kailua-Kona listings are now tagged to the infamous Beans Beach. Wonder if it was named after the now defunct sunset booze cruise called Captain Beans?)
