We really enjoyed our stay at the condo! The pool was the perfect temperature, the location was close to everything. Excellent view on the lanai of the ocean, pool and sunsets.The recommendations from the host were very helpful, thank you for all the info. The condo was well appointed with everything we needed, and it was easy to communicate with the owners. We would recommend this to anyone visiting the Big Island!

Loved the property. Everything was as described (or better), and the hosts were very helpful along the way. The location and views were amazing. Unit was well appointed, and clean, as was the overall complex. There is plenty of parking, and with the close proximity to shops and dining in Kona, you'll leave your car and walk to town. Definately a place I would recommend! Hated to leave Seaside Kona. but glad we stayed.

Great spot to stay with ocean views

We loved staying in this condo, owners were super helpful and responsive, you have everything you need (beach gear included), and it is close to everything. Plus you can listen the the ocean and watch the sunset right from the unit! The place is a little older, but the pictures are very accurate, and it was well taken care of. We'd stay again

Great Views and Location

This was the second year in a row that we've stayed in this condo. We love the location near shopping, restaurants and of course the view. Great spot to also venture out to any part of the island. Volcano National Park is a must see with lava flowing in the crater once again.

Loved Kona Reef

Had a wonderful time at Kona Reef. The condo was lovely, well-appointment with gorgeous ocean views. We enjoyed breakfast every morning on the lanai. The complex is very nice and clean with a nice area for BBQing. The location could not be more perfect— beachfront with a beautiful grassy area to enjoy the beautiful sunsets, and best of all within walking distance to shops and restaurants at Kailua-Kona village. Great communication with our host, Conrad. We would definitely stay there again.

Love Kona Reef and this unit

Get the best of both world with a spectacular ocean view as well as people watch over the pool (I also like to scope out the pool before going down so this was perfect). It’s the little things that matter and it’s obvious that the owners of this condo also use it for their pleasure as well. I had everything I needed for my stay and it was very clean and comfortable. Definitely will stay here again is available.

Solid beachfront condo with great grounds!

My spouse and I spent Labor Day weekend at Nancy's lovely condo in Kona. It's clean, quiet, comfortable and convenient. The location is perfect, right on the bay with a nice beach immediately to the south of the condo grounds. It's got plenty of parking and is just down the road from the restaurants on Ali'i Drive. The community areas are spotless and well tended -- the pool, cabana area and grills. I was pleased to see the effort and care that go into the keeping this older complex looking like new. The unit itself is a little dated, but it's nicely maintained and, as I said, was very comfortable. And the view in the picture attached is spot-on. We had a wonderful time -- it was as terrific value and we'd love to come back as soon as possible.

Lovely location

The best review one can give is "we would come here again." The condo is small but perfect for a couple. The place could use some updating but who cares? It's a gorgeous view in a perfect location and all you need is supplied. Very much appreciated the excellent selection of Tupperware and the coffee maker. Just a few tips: one small flight of stairs to navigate. If you sleep with the window open you might be awakened by the birds or people throwing out trash. The bed is high and comfy with plenty of pillows. Not a lot of towels but they have an excellent washer and dryer. We rented a car and could always find a spot. Pantry had lots of random things like Pam and Salt and foil. Brita water pitcher in the fridge. No ice maker but ice trays provided. Great TV. AC will freeze you out and the ceiling fans are quiet. Bathroom gets hot (nonAC or fan) so shower with the door open. Hairdryer is good. Pool is lovely and the grilling area is great. Very glad we found C31!

This was conveniently located 1 mile from the Ironman World Championships, an event I worked at this year. Communication before and during the trip was very easy. AC in the bedroom was great for sleeping and we only used the living room AC a couple times briefly. Fantastic view from the lanai. Easy to get groceries delivered from Walmart if you don’t have a car rental. Pool was lovely because it’s definitely toasty. Easy to walk to all kinds of restaurants and shops. Hard to swim from the shore at Honl beach due to the reef (or perhaps the time I tried tide conditions weren’t ideal) but it’s about a mile walk to a popular swim spot on the Ironman course and lots of other small beaches around. Quick Lyft from the airport. Could not find a toaster so keep that in mind for groceries but microwave and fridge available. Didn’t use the stove/oven. Traditional coffee maker (not Keurig) but we didn’t use that either. Very humid environment so the usual quirks associated with that are present in this rental. Overall met our needs for the week!

The view was breathtaking. Kept the sliders open to hear the waves every moment we were there. No need for the air conditioner except for the bedroom for sleeping at night (no cross winds there) Best stocked VRBO we’ve ever been in. Loved all the hangers too. Only drawback was not much in the way of storage-dressers for clothing. We made do..made good use of those hangers It’s an older unit but well kept. Would definitely book C31 again. Super convenient to walk to shops and restaurants along Ali’i drive.

First Big Island Experience

The location was excellent! The entire facility/grounds were very well maintained. The parking garage was monitored. We felt very safe. Communication with our host was flawless, as was access into the condo. Nice rules and regulations meant that while the facility was family-friendly, it was also quiet (such as no Bluetooth speakers, forcing others to listen to someone else’s choice of music)! Host provided everything we could possibly need, including beach chairs (which we used daily), and umbrella. We would definitely recommend this unit, and we ourselves would stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Conrad and Denise Hayden

My wife Denise and I are from Colorado. Owning in Kailua-Kona has been a dream of ours for over 16 years, but I first came to Hawaii as a child when it was still a territory. I grew up mostly in the Philippine Islands as my dad was Army/Air Force and my mom is Filipina. Denise is originally from the Garden State of New Jersey. We met in college, married and went on to be life-long educators. I have been bringing family here since 2004 and we still find tremendous magic in this tropical paradise called Hawai'i. We hope you will consider our condo as part of your vacation journey to the Aloha land of Big Island Hawaii.

Why they chose this property

This Kona Reef property appealed to my wife and me for many reasons, but most of all: Location, Location, Location! Other condos advertise a small window of a distant ocean view and then tell you that ocean is a 5 minute drive away and the nearest sandy beach is 3.6 miles away. Then they charge about the same per night as we do! Take a peek at the unique benefits of our Kona Reef condo.

What makes this property unique

* Oceanfront, you can see, smell and hear the roar of the Pacific Ocean surf!
* Spacious, private top floor lanai to take in those beautiful Hawaiian sunsets!
* Top floor corner condo gives the most privacy and best views!
*Honl Beach immediately(1 minute) next door (sandy Hawaii public beach) (rare in Kona)
* Great spot for sunbathers and surfers! Surf's Up! Not surfing? Go to our pool/ hot tub!
* Top floor, corner condo, lots of windows in every room for sea breeze ventilation!
*Sea Life viewing, shore birds, dolphins, whales (during winter),Green Sea Turtles.
*Short walking distance (1/4mi,) to historic Kailua-Village (coffeeshops, Great restaurants, tourist shops, farmers market).
* Downtown Kailua- Kona is 1 mile away. ( Food, Liquor, Drug Stores and more)
* BEST location on Hawaii to jump to multitudes of tourist destinations on Big Island! Hawaiian Luaus; active Kilauea Volcano; Gorgeous Waterfalls, Coffee Farms, Macadamian Nut Farms, Chocolate farms, Orchid nurseries: Wineries: Vanilla farm: Tropical Rainforests. Incredible Seaside Cliff views.
* Kona Beer Brewing CO. and Ola Brewing Co. Tours ( brewery and restaurant)
* Water Activities galore: Snorkeling, Diving, Surfing, ParaSailing; Beach Combing, Whale tours Manta Ray tours, Sea Turtle, Dolphin Tours; Submarine Tours, Glass Bottom Boats.
