This unit is designed and set up for TWO ADULTS.
We are sure that you will enjoy the new furnishings that make this unit light, airy and comfortable. Cool new A/C, direct oceanfront studio unit on the top floor (third floor) of this small complex, with popular Magic Sands Beach on one side, and a peaceful park on the other. A popular restaurant, Magics Beach Grill, is open right downstairs!
Private Queen sized bed/mattress, right next to the sliding doors allows you to fall asleep and wake up to the sounds of the ocean! The kitchen has been stocked with all the necessities, and then some!
Lots of cabinetry for all your storage needs, and an updated bath and kitchen make this unit a great place to enjoy your Big Island adventure!

We also provide snorkel gear, over-sized beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, picnic blanket, umbrellas and coolers for your day trips.

A beautiful spot

The property overlooks the beach - I will miss the waves crashing. It was also very functional as a base for day trips around the island. The beach is pretty but can be rough. The pool is a huge advantage when the beach is not so user friendly. The restaurant By the beach was great too. Everything at your fingertips if you wanted it. I loved how the owners had made the property feel like a holiday home. A bonus having the beach chairs and cooler bags. Would thoroughly recommend.

Can’t beat the view

My husband and I find ourselves going back to Magic Sands every visit because you just can’t beat the view. Watching the beautiful sunsets from across the ocean and listening to the lullaby of waves as we fall asleep has become our favorite past time. This particular unit has air conditioning and is well maintained. We would definitely book again in the future!

Absolutely Wonderful

Convenient, very clean, and well furnished. Owners provide everything you need for comfortable lodging. It appears the condo has been updated with new appliances, bathroom, and bed. The owners also provide quality beach chairs, towels, snorkeling equipment, and an umbrella so you can enjoy the nearby beaches. The western wall of the unit is all glass and the ocean sunsets are outstanding and perfectly framed by palms. We would definitely recommend this Vrbo listing. (Just so you know, you do not have access to the ocean at the adjacent "Magic Sands Beach" in Winter months when the trade winds scour the sand away from the shore. However, there is still a sandy shelf for sunbathing and other activities. The sandy beach "magicallly" return in the Spring when the winds shift. There are other wonderful beaches north and south of Kona for snorkeling and swimming in the Winter months.)

Our week in paradise

We loved this place and this location. We came here for our 25th wedding anniversary and I can't imagine a better place. We toured around to other beaches on the island, but our favourite beach was the one right next door to the condo -- Magic Sands Beach -- what a sweet spot! The restaurant attached to the building -- Magic Sands Grill -- is also fantastic, as are the people who work there -- from Brooke who manages the restaurant, to Anthony the sous-chef, to Paul who washes dishes in the back -- wonderful people and great food made with pride. Our week at Kona Magic Sands was a dream -- I only wish we were still there. Beautiful unit, amazing location!

Overall great stay!

Although there were a couple of minor cleanliness issues this time around such as an old pizza being left in oven, sticky cabinets, and a dusty fridge it wouldn’t prevent me from staying here time and time again. Great location, amazing sunset views and easy access to water. Can’t ask for more!

Amazing view, the owner went above and beyond by providing everything you need to enjoy your stay. snorkelling equipment, chairs ect!!! Great job. Only thing I would say is that I would move the furniture so you can enjoy the view. Get rid of the pub style table (not comfortable) and put in a set you can sit and enjoy your coffee and meals at.

About the host

Hosted by Jan and Glenn Vacca

Host profile image
My husband Glenn and I purchased our first unit in this building in May 2014. I have had such a great time managing it and sharing it with our cherished guests, so when the opportunity arose to get a second unit here, we couldn't resist!!!
We have been traveling to Hawaii for the past thirty years, and consider it our second home. Please come and enjoy the Aloha Spirit with us!
Our home base is Southern California, and we travel to the Islands 3-4 times a year for down time, and to ensure the condos are well stocked and always up to date.

Why they chose this property

We love Kona Magic Sands because of its unique oceanfront location and close proximity to all the shops and restaurants in Kona just a few miles away.

What makes this property unique

Having a studio unit that is direct oceanfront, and actual A/C makes this spot ideal for everyone!
