Experience Kona

We wanted to experience this island as we have been to 2 others. Love the patio and the ocean view. The place needs some updating and a good DEEP clean, especially vents. Overall we would stay here again, good value.

Nice place. When we arrived we were told the A/C was not working but would be repaired the next day. The next day we received an email saying the a/c was still out. No communication after that on our 5 day stay. The views are great. Walking distance to restaurants and shopping.

Vacation in Kailua-Kona

Stunning location right on the ocean and just a stroll to amazing sights and restaurants. I wasn't expecting the condo to match the posted photos online, but if anything, they didn't do justice to the property. We would definitely stay here again. A delightful time in Hawaii.

Love the location!

We had a great stay! While enjoying early coffee on the lanai the view(3rd floor #305) contained an expansive view of waves, surfers, canoes rowing and a cruise ship anchored quite a ways straight out on one day. Several of our favorite restaurants just a very short walk away. We were a little put off because the pool closed shortly into our stay for lanai restorations on another wing of the property. The staff on site were kind and accommodating.The owners even left us a nice anniversary gift. Would definitely stay again

Aged property in need of maintenance

I really want to be fair because the condo had some good points, such as location to town, great view from lanai, and responsive management. However the reader should understand this is an aged property both inside and out, badly in need of refurbishing. When we checked in there was a stench that resembled urine. The a/c to the entire building was not working for two days. The bathroom did not seem sanitary. Fortunately the management took pity on us and refunded our last four days so we could move to a resort

Beautiful quiet location

The high point are the deck and the location (a short walk to many restaurants) which can’t be beat. Unit is middle aged but clean and adequately stocked. I’d stay here again for the deck and the view.. There really are turtles who hang out in the tide pools in front. And the water and sky are never the same twice,
