About this property

Oceanfront Penthouse, As Close As You Can Stay To Ocean, Stunning Views, A/C!

Banyan Tree Penthouse Condo 402 is a spacious, ocean front condo with an ocean view that will leave you breathless. Located on the quiet 4th floor, penthouse level yet so close to the water that you can actually look down and see tropical fish like the yellow tang! Sea turtles, spinner dolphins, humpback whales (when in season) and surfers often entertain you by day and the surf will lull you to sleep each night. The living room features floor to ceiling windows that look as though the ocean is coming inside! The private, tiled lanai is the perfect place to enjoy your coffee in the morning or to have a cocktail and watch a picture perfect sunset in the evening.

Inside you’ll find all the comforts of home. The oceanfront master bedroom has a comfy king bed and the second bedroom a queen and twin so the unit comfortably sleeps four. The fully stocked kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to make meals or prepare for the perfect "sunset happy hour"! Enjoy two flat screen TV’s with over 200 channels, a DVD library, Bluetooth speaker for your tunes and free WiFi. Beach towels, chairs, boogie boards, coolers and an umbrella are supplied for your beach days. Pack fewer clothes for your trip if you like because of the full size Maytag washer and dryer. Air conditioning is throughout the condo to keep you cool on those warmer Kona days!

The Banyan Tree is a small, well-kept complex with only 20 units so it never feels crowded. The property is located as close as you can get to the Pacific Ocean. In fact new construction is no longer allowed to be as close to the ocean as Banyan Tree. The ocean front pool has mesmerizing views and plenty of comfortable lounge chairs. Barbecue grills and a hot tub are also poolside. A spacious veranda on the second floor with amazing views is available to all Banyan Tree guests for entertaining. Directly next door is a small, sandy beach where the locals access the Banyan Surf site, a famed stretch of water in front of the condo known for fantastic surfing and boogie boarding.

Banyan Tree is centrally located on the sunny side of the Big Island in Kailua-Kona. Top rated restaurants like the Poke Shack and local farmers markets are minutes away. Downtown Kona, with galleries and shops is less than three miles. Historic Alii drive, which is great for ocean walks, is right out the back door. Ready for the beach? Magic Sands Beach is less than a mile away. Kahalu'u Beach is only two miles and has easy snorkeling where you can get up-close to beautiful reefs and abundant sea life. It's also a great place to learn to surf. Postcard perfect beaches such as Hapuna Beach and Kua Bay are to the north and Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park and Captain Cooks monument lie to the south. Also to the south is Two Step Beach, located near Pu’u Honua O Honaunau National Historic Park, which is a perfect snorkeling spot to explore the crystal clear waters of Kona’s coast. Since Banyan Tree is located about halfway up the Kona coast you can easily drive to either end of the island. When you're done just park in your designated parking stall and take the elevator to your penthouse retreat!
This is an ocean lover's dream, we hope you visit soon!

Perfect spring break

This place was amazing. The best view of the ocean from the lani. The condo was perfect. It was complete with extras like beach towels, chairs and umbrellas. The two bedroom was the right size for our family. The kitchen was supplied with everything we needed. The owners thought of the little things that made the stay perfect. We already looked Into booking for next year at spring break but it was already booked:(. We will be back.

Fantastic Ocean Views

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. The highlight, of course, were the ocean views, the fantastic sunsets, and the surfers riding the waves.The condo was spacious, the beds and furniture were comfortable, and the bathrooms/showers were well appointed. the kitchen had everything we needed and we appreciated the spices, tea, coffee, and other kitchen necessities that were needed.The condo even provided beach chairs, snorkeling gear, and boogie boards.Decorating tip: when it's time to paint, choose an off white rather than the sand brown to give the room a brighter feel. Also, I'd choose couches with a brighter tropical look rather than the cord brown.Bottom line: I felt I received value for my money and I believe the owners understood the adage "Be Your Guest.

Great Rest

Reality met pictures. When chatting on phone with son, asked if we were on a cruise, due to closeness of water. Quiet location, not really close to any shopping or restaurants, but walking distance to several beaches. Would stay here again.

A truly lovely condo. The attention to detail is unbelievable. And then there’s the view. We’ve stayed at a lot of condos up and down Ali'i Drive. This one is at the top of my list. Loved watching the surfers in the morning and the sunsets at night. Very comfortable and appreciate the easy communication. Location is also perfect. Already looking forward to my next stay!.

About the host

Hosted by Kim & Jon Bourgain

Host profile image
We are the Bourgain's from Littleton, Colorado and welcome to our "happy place"! We have been traveling to the Hawaiian islands for over 20 years. After spending time on all the islands we decided the Big Island was our favorite! It seems more laid back and to us more like we envision 'old Hawaii' When we take a beach vacation we always try to find properties where we can see the ocean from our condo and the pool. When we saw Banyan Tree it was the perfect fit!

Why they chose this property

We stayed at the Banyan Tree condos and were blown away by the views, the proximity to the ocean and how private it was. We also liked how it is centrally located on the Kona coast so it doesn't take long to go to the north or south end of the island. It's also right in the middle of many of the best restaurants, markets and shopping on the island. Now that we own Banyan Tree Penthouse #402 we can honestly say we are even more impressed by the attention to detail that is paid to maintain and improve the property for the benefit of the guests. We also love being on the top floor, the views are hard to believe and it's so quiet with no one above you.

What makes this property unique

Direct Ocean Front. You simply can't stay any closer to the ocean. You're on the quiet top floor but still so close to the beautiful water. You won't find a beautiful pool any closer to the ocean. This is an ocean lover's paradise!
