It was perfect, we spent so much time sitting on the lanai just watching the waves and the sunset. Loved the easy access to the bay for snorkeling, it was perfect for beginners. The pool was really nice and relaxing. Just loved it and definitely would stay again.

Great view, location, and pool area. Plenty of recreation equipment available in the unit. A/C worked well as did all of the appliances, although the fridge is an older model without an ice maker.

What a perfect place to stay in Kona! We absolutely loved the location and the view! The best part other than enjoying my morning coffee on the lanai was having all the beach and snorkel gear there and loading it into the wagon for a very short walk to the beach! We would definitely stay here again!

Terrific owners who clearly take pride in offering a wonderful property. The property was generously stocked with household necessities and outdoor toys. Duane stayed in close contact to ensure all went well especially considering the storm that hit the Big Island during our stay. Fortunately, Kailua-Kona was spared the worst of hurricane Lala.As advertised, the location is excellent with the beach across the street and Kona just a few minutes away. Mahalo Duane & Cheri

We all had an excellent stay and the view was just gorgeous. Everything we needed and more. The pool was great also. It was so nice being right across from snorkel beach. The snorkeling was amazing here, for real and we have been a lot of places. We would definitely stay here again when we come back to Kona. Thank you again for being such great hosts!

The view of Kahalu'u Bay from the deck is phenomenal. Life just doesn't get any better than when you are just a few steps from some of the best snorkeling on the whole island. The condo is spacious and has everything you could possibly think of needing. It was absolutely clean. The steps to the third floor will help burn the calories you are going to find at the amazing restaurants in town. We had one issue and the owners were immediately responsive. They treated us very well. It was paradise.

Amazing location! We walked to Kahalu’u and snorkeled/surfed. This was exactly as photographed and described. There were multiple boogie boards, chairs, a surf board, and a cooler. We cooked many meals - it was easy thanks to how well stocked the kitchen was! We also enjoyed the gorgeous pool area. Many thanks!

We had a fantastic time and wish we would have booked more days here. The hosts Duane and Cherie were so helpful and accomadating to our needs.We love that the kitchen was so well stocked, including spices and ziploc bags. The view was so beautiful and watching surfers was very entertaining. Our breakfast routine included watching dolphins and we even saw a late season whale spout. The condo was beautifully decorated and it felt like a home, so relaxing! Don't bother bringing snorkel gear or beach gear, its all there! The pool area and BBQ was lovely, sunsets are not to be missed!
