About this property
Spacious 1BR/1BA Condo - Ocean View, Above it All, Oceanside Pool and Zoned A/C
The Penthouse of Kona Shores awaits you! This spacious and luxurious 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom corner condo is the crown jewel of Kona Shores, offering the largest living space at 1,000 sq ft. in the complex, it offers a level of exclusivity like no other.
NOTE: the unit is the same as VRBO listing and host as https://www.vrbo.com/10605, with only the master bedroom and bathroom made available to the guests.
From the moment you step through the front door, you’ll be greeted by a beautiful wood entry hall, leading you past a newly remodeled kitchen. The kitchen boasts a full-size refrigerator, gas stove, and pantry, as well as a coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven, and all the necessary dishes, pots, and pans to make cooking a breeze.
Just a step down from the kitchen, you'll enter a light-filled, open-concept living area, featuring a new queen size hide-a-bed couch and Roku TV to stream your favorite apps. Two large glass double sliding doors open to a wrap-around lanai, where you're treated to breathtaking views of lush palms, vibrant gardens, and a partial ocean view.
For your ultimate comfort, the unit is equipped with multi-zone, mini-split air conditioning, allowing you to adjust the temperature in each room independently. The best part? The air conditioning is ultra-quiet, maintaining a peaceful atmosphere while keeping you cool—whether you’re relaxing in the living area or enjoying the privacy of the bedrooms.
For restful nights and relaxation, the Master Bedroom offers a plush King-size bed and new furnishings. A glass sliding door opens directly to the lanai, allowing you to enjoy the gentle island breezes or the fresh smell of an overnight rain shower. The newly remodeled Master Bath features a spacious walk-in shower, a modern vanity with double sinks, and a new toilet.
This top-floor unit offers peace and tranquility with no noise from above and new double-pane windows all around. Additionally, the condo comes with an assigned parking spot directly below the unit, eliminating the stress of searching for a spot. A commercial-style laundry area with pay-via-app capability is conveniently located downstairs.
Enjoy a BBQ and a swim at the oceanside pool, which offers arguably the best swimming spot along Ali’i Dr, complete with stunning views of breaking waves and unforgettable sunsets. The condo is situated in the northwest corner of the Kona Shores complex—farthest from the road and closest to the ocean—ensuring peace and privacy.
Please note that pets are not allowed, and smoking is prohibited in the unit or in the lanais. Your paradise awaits at 75-6008 Ali’i Dr., Kailua-Kona, HI 96740.

About the host
Hosted by Glen
Glen is a retired business executive of biopharmaceutical companies. He has a pharmacy degree and an MBA. Growing up he participated in several sports and later focused on water-skiing, snorkeling, and back-packing. Glen was born in Santa Cruz, CA and attended college at UC Berkeley and UCSF. Glen earned his MBA at Harvard. Glen's most favorite vacations are to the family cabin in the Yosemite area and to Kona.
Jon, Glen's son, took a similar path, graduating from UC Davis with a degree in physiology. He started his career as a Biologist for Roche Bioscience. After earning a Master's degree in Biomedical Science and and MBA, Jon founded his own biopharmaceutical marketing strategy company, Life Science Strategy Group, LLC, in 2007. He shares the same passion for the outdoors as his father, spending much of his time with his wife and family in the Sierra Nevada mountains or in Kona.

Why they chose this property
Over the years Glen traveled to Hawaii many times, mainly Oahu, Maui, and Kauai with his wife Ginny. Glen has traveled to several Hawaii islands and has owned a time-share in Waikiki, a lovely condo at Poipu Beach in Kauai, and several vacation and long-term condos on the Big Island. His favorite place to visit became Hawaii for the sports (e.g., snorkeling), sites all over the island, variety of scenery, birds, and the fact that this island is still largely undiscovered by mass tourism.
Jon, having traveled to Kona with Glen and family numerous times since childhood has also fallen in love with the Big Island too. It's only natural that he is continuing on to help manage and maintain the family condo in Kona.

What makes this property unique
Glen and Jon have stayed at Kona Shores annually since 1985 (now over 30 years). They love the privacy of the North wing of this complex. In 1998 the lovely northwest, first floor, corner unit became available. Glen had seen it while helping a renter fix screens. He was lucky enough to buy this unit. He loves the open, spacious, above it all, good partial ocean view impact of the unit and the very private location within the complex. (This unit was built by the original contractor for Kona Shores for himself; he also built the special corner unit below, reportedly for one of his relatives).
