Conveniently located, walking distance to restaurants, markets, and shops. Also walking to small sandy beach right next door. Great balcony to watch surfers, boats, sunset, eating and lounging. We also enjoyed trying out the snorkel gear provided!
Great stay at the property! Everything was as expected per the listing. I wasn't sure how walkable it would be to restaurants/shops, but it was very easy - less than 1/2 mile walk. Traffic and parking in town are a bit of a hassle, so we appreciated being able to walk there. I was a bit surprised by the additional insurance fee they charged upon booking, as I have not encountered that with other property managers. And the contract we had to sign was ridiculously long! I felt we were treated with the expectation that we would ruin their property with all the rules and signatures required in the contract. That said, we had a great stay and enjoyed the accommodation.
We had a great 5 day stay at this condo. The location of the property was walking distance to all sorts of restaurants. We also snuck in a couple of 4 mile runs. We will definitely be back.
We had a great stay. Worked a couple of hours from the Lani and then called it a day. Staying in the unit helped us envision a future on the island. Unit was clean, well stocked, and a great location. Within walking distance of local shops and restaurants. Great space for a couple..glad we did not invite a kid or two!
We wanted to do a mix of nature/outdoor stuff and relaxing reading a book/playing a video game, and this place was in the perfect location. Close enough to town to walk anywhere/eat anywhere. Far enough away that you're not hearing the bars from your own balcony. Super private balcony that is RIGHT on the ocean for the perfect white noise. I also dried a lot of my laundry out there and nothing was blown at all. We took advantage of the stocked water sports cupboard and the blender! We love having a place to cook and everything was easy to use and worked very well.
This was a return stay at a lovely property. Our primary goal in booking a condo is ocean access and this property has a wonderful beach within walking distance. Second goal is a condo that is clean and comfortable. This condo is spotless! Incredible view, very quiet, easy parking, easy walk to town. And we VERY MUCH appreciated the beach chairs! Thank you for a lovely weekend!
I love it when you book something through Monday, but they only except the booking until Sunday and then donât tell you. And then theyâre so lovely that they kick you out on the day before your flight. And itâs so much fun having no place to stay for one night. And then when you call and contact them, nobody calls you back or tells you when they do give you a short text to find a hotel. So I donât know if itâs the property manager that accepted it only for their dates and not telling us that they were a day short. Or if it was VBRO. But one of them made a boo-boo and didnât tell us and it was not a fun experience . The worst part is the property manager made no attempt to make it right they just kick us out kind of rude actually so thanks for that. when I did find out, I had a place at a hotel. The hotel manager did tell me that thatâs a very common thing with the property managers in Hawaii where at least in Kona. so if youâre in Kona, you better stick with a hotel they can at least be trusted.
Condo was perfect for 2 people. It was stocked with everything we needed. Didn't do any cooking but did enjoy morning coffee and evening wine on lanai. Good location - very walkable to all shops and restaurants. Property management accessible for the one issue we had. Would definitely rent that unit again.
The location of this condo is great! We could easily walk to town and several restaurants. The lanai was perfect with amazing views. The only issue we had was the toaster-it wouldnât engage down. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Would recommend this condo for a quiet relaxing vacation!
Nice unit. Clean except some ants around sink. Manager responded promptly and advised spray and traps located under sink which I could use. Also I arrived after dark and security lighting not working outside entrance so couldnât see keypad buttons to enter until I retrieved flashlight. Being on vacation Iâm not use to having to follow checkout instructions that lessen the housekeeperâs duties. Iâm a neat person but and travel a lot but seemed more than average for the price. Otherwise quite comfortable with walking distance < 1 mile to shops and Restaurants. Lots of beach gear available to use along with a lending library. Probably would look toward other options if I was to return as price comparable to some hotels.
Loved the 3rd floor view of the ocean. It was a perfect location just 4 minute walk into town. Nothing to complain about at all. I would definitely stay here again.
The little condo is ocean front, and we saw whales jumping everythime we enjoyed the lanai. Even though we had a car, we were able to walk to Kailua Kona for dinner every night in about 12 minutes. I recommend.
This was a beautiful place to stay! Loved going to sleep every night listening to ocean waves crash. The property was stocked with every necessary item we needed! We would definitely stay again! Mahalo
Loved it! Comfortable condo! Beautiful view!! Loved having my breakfast on the patio watching the fish in the waves, and the sun coming up in the morning! Of course evenings watching the sunset each night was amazing too!
Lovely property, stunning view from patio. Check in process was simple, host was fantastic in ensuring everything was perfect. I would definitely return to this property.
We were very pleased with our stay at this property. It was a great location to start our day from and centrally located for the type of activities we enjoy.
Overall, a comfortable stay. We read reviews and understood there were ants. But when we arrived at the condo to take stock of what we needed, there were ants all over the kitchen counter and bar area. Hadnt even brought in food yet. These are tiny suger ants. Use cutting board and plates to prepare and cut food. Eating at the bar was bothersome do to the ants. Otherwise a fun stay. Beautiful views from lanai. At sunset there was a man blowing the conch shell. Very little noise from neighbors, just crashing waves. The sliding door is difficult to unlock and close. Break a nail flipping the lock, and need to slam door into place cuz the frame is off. Place is older and they tried to upgrade where possible and make repairs. Bar stools wobble, bed creaks, closet not on track. Kitchen is equipped with most everything. We wanted to make a salad but needed a big bowl. Looks like there is one on the very top shelf, but even with the little step stool i couldnt reach it. There is a closet full of beach items to borrow. Chairs, boards, soft cooler, etc. If you're a gal and need to shave, the shower is not women friendly! No bench and the toilet seat is the flimsy type that you cant sit on. So it makes shaving challenging. Fans, a/c, lights, wifi, and tv worked great. A little confusing on how to operate with little to no instructions. Small stackable laundry unit in hallway came in handy after our hikes with dusty clothes.
Wonderful waterviews and sunset views. Condo was well equipped and nicely furnished. Parking was scarce at times as construction equipment took up half the spaces in front of our building even though the equipment went unused on multiple days.
This is a great property located directly on the ocean and within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and other activities. It was great to enjoy the sound and sight of the ocean each day and itâs a prime location for the amazing Big Island sunsets! Mahalo!
