This condo is right on the water so fabulous views of the surf, surfers, tide pools. Great lanai for morning coffee, breakfast, evening drinks. There are lots of beach chairs, kids toys, and beach towels.The unit was very clean, and had everything we needed in the kitchen and bath. I was impressed with the staff cleaning the grills (which are by the water with picnic tables) every morning.The pool is in the middle of the buildings so not very picturesque. It is clean, and there is a small hot tub. The pool is very deep, it goes to 6 -7 feet deep right after the entrance steps, so might be difficult with young children.There is a poke shack right on the property, and a great taco stand a short walk down the street.The air conditioner was sufficient, but it has a 4 hour timer so you have to turn it back on in the night as it got stuffy without it. The unit has 4 ceiling fans which were great at keeping it comfortable.

Dream trip to Kona!

We stayed here for the Ironman World Championship, and it couldn’t have been any better! It was the perfect location and setting, any questions I had were answered immediately, and I was able to listen to the waves and relax. I would highly recommend this location for the Hawaiian vacation you dream of.

The most stunning feature of the unit is the view overlooking the tidal pool and the ocean, which is perfect for watching sunsets. The unit was very comfortable for two couples. It is very well maintained and clean and the kitchen is very well equipped. A bonus was all the beach equipment in the storage box on the balcony, which included beach chairs, umbrellas, buggy boards, snorkeling equipment, etc. I highly recommend the host Big Island Stays and the unit.

Big Island Paradise

Could not have asked for a better location and the setting was beautiful. Kitchen was well stocked and equiped. Place was very quiet at night and we were lucky enough to be there during a full moon. Spent lots of hours on the lanai watching the sunsets and moon setting. Probably would rank within the top 5 of my vacations.

Fabulous views of the ocean!

We had a really wonderful time, the views of the ocean, beautiful sounds of the waves 24/7 and watching sunset from the patio was just an awesome experience. Amenities were great, A/C was a relief on one of the hotter days. Lots of beach toys, chairs, umbrella etc. was great for beach visits. Safeway and restaurants were are 10 mins. Overall a great vacation, we will book again!

The condo is quite nice with stunning sunset views. It is fully equipped with absolutely everything you could possibly need. Check-in was very easy and the management company very attentive to making sure everything was in perfect order. We loved having our breakfast on the balcony as we watched surfers catching waves. In the evenings the sunsets were amazing! Like most places on the island you definitely need a car to get around...a few places were walking distance but not much. Our only disappointment was the swimming pool and outside area of the complex...it definitely needs some upgrades and maintenance

This unit was everything it was supposed to be. It was the most completely furnished place we have ever stayed at. Everything we needed was there. There was an issue with the grill, but it was addressed and handled quickly. The linens were wonderful, the dishwasher top quality and quiet, as were the wonderful washer and dryer. This one was a great pick! Very well maintained property!

Great place to stay with family!

My family and I enjoyed our stay here. Location is central to Kona and there was ample parking. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. It was quiet at night and we had no trouble falling asleep. The AC was on a 4-hr timer, which is no big deal. We only used the AC to cool the condo down before going to sleep. Furniture was outdated, but it adds to the island feel. The couch wasn’t very comfortable to sit on but we didn’t spend much time inside. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend!

Perfect in every way!

Wow, wow, wow, we miss it already! The lanai was enormous and had two separate sliding doors to the living room and master bedroom. We fell asleep to the waves each night with the screen door and had every breakfast and dinner out on the lanai with the stunning sea and sunset views. We also saw sea turtles from the lanai and used this as the perfect home base for each separate day trip. The two bed/two bath setup with in suite laundry and full, well-stocked kitchen made for the perfect setting with the perfect view in the perfect location! We certainly hope to be back one day!
