About this property

A/C and Ocean front pool, 1bedroom Condo on Ali’i drive in the heart of Kona ❤️

Relax at the Oceanfront Pool while you plan your adventure in Hawaii. Beautiful 1 bedroom ground floor condo on the scenic Ali'i Drive less than a mile from town. Full kitchen, brand new Queen Novaform 14 inch gel memory foam mattress in the bedroom and a queen sofa sleeper in the living room. Condo complex pool on the ocean with a BBQ pavilion. Private lanai, Air conditioning, assigned parking spot, 32 inch TV, WiFi, and beach gear. Everything you need for a great Hawaii vacation!

The Space:
Come enjoy our relaxing 1 bedroom, newly remolded, fully stocked condo in Kona Shores, a cute older condo complex on the scenic Ali'i Drive less than a mile from town. 1 brand new Queen memory foam bed, 1 Queen sofa sleeper, and kitchen table all comfortably accommodate 4 people. New air conditioning unit in living room quickly cools the whole place now that we opened up the wall to the bedroom for a spacious feeling. Ground floor unit on Ali'i drive gives you easy access to the assigned parking spot to make coming and going a breeze. Our condo is fully stocked in the kitchen and bathrooms for 4 people with everything you will need. We also provide beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler for you to use while you enjoy your stay with us. The oceanfront pool is amazing to sit and watch the sunset. Green flash coffee is located next door and town is less than a mile walking distance.

Guest access:
While staying at our condo you have access to the shared ocean front condo pool, BBQ area which is shared but can also be reserved, and a coin operated laundry facility. The keys are in a lock box and one assigned parking space is provided conveniently located outside back lanai door. Kona Shores is as older complex but well maintained. Please no smoking inside the condo.

Interaction with guests:
We want you to feel at home during your stay at our condo and the lock box for keys allows you to come and go without the worry of losing keys. We live about 15 minutes up the hill. We are a phone call away for any questions, recommendations, or maintenance needs.

The property was awesome! I had one small issue with a spider, could happen anywhere! Make sure that the Raid is stocked lol. Location was very nice, close to the coffee shop. Hostess was very helpful. Make sure to take in the view of the pool. Also, a step stool for the microwave would be nice. We are shortl!

Old and dated

Unit is very dated. There is one bed and a sofa sleeper. I can’t imagine how 4 people could stay here. There is only one little sofa inside which seats 2. Also one small 5 drawer dresser so you couldn’t unpack more than two. The fridge is very rusty and stained in outside. The lids to the pots are greasy. After taking off my shoes and walking on the floor my feet were dirty. Unit is right on the main road so very noisy at night with cars, motorcycles and trucks. Porch light is burned out so difficult to operate lock box in the dark.

Great rental for 2 people. Pool was beautiful! Less tha 1/2 mile to magic sands and wave pool. Coffee shop is next door. We could hear the road, but we’re just not the types that bothers. Disabled mother had no issues accessing the unit from parking. Contact person was wonderful and made check in so easy!

OK spot in Kona (Read On)

The advertisement is a bit misleading. The complex has a small rocky beach that is oceanfront in the very back. This unit is in the front of the complex and on the main road, so there is alot of traffic noise and you could feel the big subwoofers when they drove by. The unit is old and in need of updating. Refridgerator is rusty. Really, it has a bunch of rust on it. On the positives, it is a short 1 mile walk to the downtown area close to everyting, the bed was comfy and the ac worked well.

The apartment was very well equipped. There was beach/pool/snorkel equipment as well as pool towels. The kitchen had enough room for everything and a table that was just perfect for the four of us. Our child really enjoyed the toys and books.We had enough room for our suitcases and even with the couch bed it never seemed to crowded. The pool was awesome and had some shade to sit and watch the kids. The street could be a little noisy at times but at night it was just fine.

Kona Shores

Older property with very thin walls. Wasn’t clear that unit barely 10 feet from the 24/7 traffic on major road. That was disappointing. Adequate place but like most places here, overpriced for what you get. Bed is very comfortable and owner is so very responsive!!

Disappointing

Lovely pool and commons area, but the condo is dark, dank and musty. It is 20 feet from busy Ali’i Drive, so it is quite noisy. Not what we expected from a VRBO rental, ie: rusty fridge, smelly rug and no bar of soap in the bathroom.

Perfect Stay for Our Quick Trip

Our trip to the Big Island was short this time around but the vacation rental was amazing. It was exactly what we needed for the few days we were there and the location was very convenient. The whole process from check in to check out was easy and was communicated with us well!

Ideal for our Stay

We only stayed 1 night; so for our purposes - the unit was ideal. A short walk from the unit was the oceanfront pool. This was pretty impressive. The entire complex was well maintained and secure. The unit itself was well stocked and roomy enough for the 4 of us for the night. Make sure you book an excursion to see the Manta Rays at night. It was the highlight of our 3 week Hawaiian vacation.

About the host

Host profile image
I love the beach, I am a wife, and a busy mother of three girls. I met my husband at this exact condo complex and we raised our first born there. We love the beach, shell hunting, surfing, fishing, tanning, relaxing! We live a busy life with 3 kids but still enjoy each day and make sure to enjoy our island every weekend. I am a stay at home mom and my husband is a commercial fisherman. We are excited to host you at this special place that we met. We hope you enjoy the home, pool, and shoreline sunsets as much as we did living there!

Why they chose this property

Kona shores is located on the scenic Ali'i drive less that a mile from town. The complex is an old but well maintained property. Beautiful ocean front pool to watch the sunset and BBQ grills for use to end your day relaxing in paradise.

What makes this property unique

Located right on Ali'i drive walking distance to town!
