Banyan Tree 304 - Oceanfront Kona Condo w/ Views, Pool & Lanai

Oceanfront Escape at Banyan Tree 304 – Stunning Kona Views

Welcome to Banyan Tree 304, your private oceanfront vacation rental in Kona on the beautiful Big Island of Hawaii. Located directly on scenic Aliʻi Drive, this spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath oceanfront condo offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, unforgettable Kona sunsets, and the perfect setting for your Kailua-Kona getaway.
This Kona Hawaii vacation rental features unobstructed ocean views from both the living room and primary bedroom, allowing guests to wake up to the sound of the waves and enjoy year-round tropical breezes. Watch humpback whales during the winter season, dolphins throughout the year, and surfers riding the famous surf break just below the property.

Situated on the third floor with secure elevator access, Banyan Tree 304 combines comfort, convenience, and one of the best oceanfront locations in Kailua-Kona.
Newly Updated Oceanfront Condo

In April 2026, the condo was upgraded with beautiful engineered wood flooring throughout, replacing the previous carpeting for a fresh and modern island feel. While this Kona condo rental does not have air conditioning, professionally installed UV film on the west-facing windows and sliding glass doors helps keep the condo cooler during the afternoon sun while preserving the incredible ocean views.
Combined with ceiling fans and refreshing Kona trade winds, the condo remains naturally cool, bright, and comfortable.

Loved this place! Perfect vacation.

We (4 adults) spent 2 weeks on the Big Island and this was the perfect place. Everyday all day entertainment just outside our balcony by the surfing regulars of Kona ; perfect sunsets, including one green flash ; convenient, dedicated parking space, appliances, scuba gear, and all kinds of amenities, great beds, beautiful hawaiian furniture and artwork on the walls ; fabulous uncrowded common area, also facing the sunset with a lovely pool, hot tub and barbeque setup.

Great ocean view place!

My friend and I stayed for a week here and the view is absolutely breathtaking. You get to see the sun set over the ocean every night. And usually lots of surfers are out as well. It's a bit of a drive to get to the prettiest beaches on the island, but other than that the location is close enough to town. We enjoyed our stay!

Everything we wanted

This VRBO could benefit from some cosmetic updating, but it’s obviously well cared for and immediately cleaned. The huge windows provide a great view of the Banyan surf spot which appears to be popular from sunrise to sunset. Speaking of sunsets, they were spectacular as well. We would definitely stay here again.

Banyan Tree Happiness

We loved staying at this very special oceanfront complex. The unit was a bit dated but the price was right for our 10 day stay! Kona Coffee on the Lanai is the best as the sun appears on the ocean. The view fantastic for sunsets, watching surfers, paddlers and ocean surprises …dolphins. Would have loved to see a whale or two, but our stay was a bit early for whale season. Yes, recommend this unit during winter months as there is no a/c.

The apartment is well furnished, comfortable, and had everything we needed for an extended stay. The grounds are magnificent and the pool area is perfect.

Great view, location and very comfortable

This condo has a great location on the oceanfront and not far from town. We found the recliner, swivel chairs to be very comfortable which is really important to us. The unit was very well equipped including two beach chairs, a beach umbrella and a boogie board. The unit was quiet except for the ocean waves which we enjoyed. There is no AC but the ocean breeze and fans kept us quite comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent vacation rental

Comfortable, well maintained unit in convenient location. Close to Kona while far enough away from tourist hubbub. Close to Kahaluu Beach for awesome snorkeling (get there early). Great view of the ocean and a nice pool to swim in and lounge around along side the inexorable and melodious waves. Frequent Spinner dolphin and occasional whale sitings from the lanai. Have stayed here before and hope to again. All in all, a marvelous place. Of note, the owner/property manager should be aware that window adjacent sliding glass door leaks from the top during windswept rain.

Kailua Ocean!

Fantastic location. Spent happy hours on the balcony quietly reading in the morning, watching surfers, sunsets, & just the beautiful ocean. Unit was clean and spacious. As one other person noted, it's exactly as in the photos. It could use a little update - new fan in guest bedroom (a/c there would be great), and quieter exhaust fan in main bathroom. On the whole it was great. Would certainly recommend it to others!

Nice warm getaway.

The pros of our stay were the location, oceanfront with a swimming pool and assigned covered parking. The cons were (for the street side bedroom) traffic and neighbor noise and the rooster crowing (and not just at Sun up). We have stayed at this location multiple times and enjoy the pros over other locations. Floor plans are generally very similar and not as busy as the larger buildings. The unit we were in was in need of some minor maintenance and upgrades, but was the best rate of all the rest of the units and our visit and memories more than made up for any minor inconveniences.

You are so close to the ocean you can see the fish from the unit

Our stay at the Banyan tree was exceptional. The furnishings were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you could need. The washer/dryer in the unit was also very nice. The pool area was very nice too. But the best thing was the location. From the unit we could watch the fish swimming right out our window. It was like snorkeling without getting wet! The unit had a small deck that we ate all our meals on. You can hear the waves all the time, we loved that. I would recommend this unit without any hesitation.

Quiet area and beautiful sunsets

We enjoyed staying at this condo. We took some wonderful sunset pictures, and we often had the pool to ourselves. It definitely was the best place for surfers since we were able to watch them sunrise to sunset from our lanai. We even saw dolphins! No air conditioning, and it was very warm when we arrived. It helped to keep the sliding doors open during the night, and then close up the windows and blinds in the morning. Another fan would have been appreciated since one of them didn't work. (I left a note for housekeeping.) Lots to see in the area.
