Inside, the open-concept living area frames the sea view, with a well-equipped kitchen featuring full-size appliances and all the essentials for island-inspired meals. The bedroom offers a king bed and air conditioning, while the living area provides cozy seating and a TV for unwinding after a day in the sun.

The condo was very clean, very nice decor, and quiet. The ceiling fans kept the unit cool and the AC in the bedroom worked well, too. We liked having a corner unit to enjoy the ocean and the landscaping. It was fantastic to be right on the ocean to hear and watch the waves. Beautiful view! We will definitely return. One thing is that they called the complex Holualoa Village. But it is really Kona Riviera Villas.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful ocean views, the peaceful setting, and the comfort of the condo — hearing and watching the waves is really something special. We also appreciate you pointing out the naming confusion — thank you for that - we’ll make sure everything is clear moving forward.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The suite is dated. AC only in bedroom. Description is misleading. Great view. Great location. Just really, really, really expensive. Also, I know how much Americans hate Canadians, so I didn’t feel safe on several occasions. Will probably never go back to Hawaii or America for that matter.

Great location and condo! The apartment was cleaned as well as the property (except some dead cockroaches around the paths - probably because of insecticide). Also very quiet place, you only hear the waves and not the traffic from the road. We had a great stay!

The condo is in great location a little south of the busiest area of Kailua Kona bay. Less commercial but still very convenient. It has a great ocean/pool view. The condo is spacious with a sink in master bedroom which provides additional convenience. Checkin and checkout very easy. We enjoyed it very much.

Great Condo/Location!

We stayed at this property for five days in September ‘23 and it is exactly as shown on the website. The location is on the main road through Kona, which was extremely convenient. The condo has extras such as ice chests, chairs, beach mats and includes a full kitchen with all the necessities. On-site washers/dryers. Easy check-in and out. I highly recommend it and would stay here again.

sound of the surf

We really loved our stay here. Although not right on the ocean we were so close we could see and and hear the surf. We enjoyed the lovely garden outside the living room and the screen windows at the bottom of the wall made the room feel airy and connected to the outside. The property was very well maintained. Our one complaint, and it is minor, is that there is no full length mirror.

A million dollar view !

This was a truly luxurious condo in a quiet setting. All the amenities you need and then some. The manager on site is a great guy also. We only had a small issue of a screen door not working properly and that was taken care of promptly by Steve the handyman. The best part was watching the sunset and the waves breaking at the same time !
