About this property
Rare BEACH FRONT Home at Kona Surf and Racquet Club. Accessible beach 🏖️
Our "Hale Honu" (turtle house) is a rare find in Kona. There are many ocean view homes in Kona but very few beach front properties. You can walk out the back door to your own semi-private beach and drop yourself in the sand. Watch the whales, dolphins and manta rays. Turtles find this beach a quiet and peaceful resting place so enjoy them from a distance as they sleep on the sand. A few minutes down the beach you will see native Hawaiian Petroglyphs and Heiau's. You will not have to leave the property to enjoy all the amazing culture.
Look out over the grassy lawn from your lanai that previews the tropical shrubbery where your own path to the beach only a few steps away. The beach is an oasis to put on reef walker shoes and explore the home of Hawaiian sea turtles or to spread out beach chairs or mats and share some first-class beach time with those you love. All sorts of tropical birds are attracted to the lush tropical growth in our location and will often wait for a treat just off the lanai.
Enjoy your oceanfront location with seating for four at a dining table with glass top in the shade of your covered lanai with overhead ceiling fan. Stretch out on the lounge if you are trying to add to that summer tan. Have a morning cup of Kona coffee with your breakfast that can be handed via a pass through window from the kitchen or in the evening; have a BBQ or your own prepared gourmet dinner with an incredible sunset for your backdrop. There is no better location in any restaurant in Kona.
Located on world-famous Ali'i Drive the Keauhou Kona Surf and Racquet Club is a 4-star Oceanfront Resort located 4.5 miles south of Kailua-Kona town.

Great location, quiet at night. Out on the lanai every night to watch the sunsets. Made good use of the grill across from the townhouse. Well stocked, good Henkel pans for cooking. Clean and nicely decorated. Appreciated Nancy’s recommendations for food and activities. Highly recommended, we had a great trip.
Great spot. Beautiful sunsets. The activities that we booked were nearby like the night manta ray snorkel where we met them near the outrigger and the surf lesson was at Kahaluu Beach. We made full use of the washer and dryer and the kitchen. The AC was necessary in late May/early June. It was nice to have the chairs and umbrella and snorkels available for use. We would recommend to friends and come back in the future.
Great place to stay, close to everything. Loved having access to the water. We had a couple small issues with TV and AC which were resolved quickly! Would recommend this property and would definitely stay again!
Amazing location, right on the ocean. Small beach and water access straight out of the door. Close to Kahalu’u Beach Park. Very thoughtfully prepared for guests and comfortable. Keauhou Surf and Racket Club was quiet, family friendly, with a great pool. Townhouse and grounds were beautiful.
Location was amazing! So beautiful! Townhome was well stocked with things you might need. Met many wonderful people who live at the complex year round. Everyone was so friendly!

Loved having you. Please come back again for return guest discounts . We love sharing turtle house and whale house with others . If your looking for a longer more discounted stay look at whale house as it will be ready this summer . Nancy
We had a great 10 day stay on our first trip to Hawaii. Great location and beautiful views. Very relaxing, and just a short drive to anything you would need.
The place was a bit on the dusty side, ie front door ledges, lights in master bathroom. Air conditioning was welcome, but should have been informed of the additional 30 a day cost up front at time of booking. Trash and recycling was a bit confusing.
Great views from lanai and master bedroom, AC could’ve worked better as I woke up multiple nights covered in sweat. Easy check in and out

Thanks for your stay. I wish you would have called me to get the maintenance out to look at ac. It’s important to let owners know if you have problems so they can correct the before we get a bad review. Mahalo
What a pleasure to be able to walk out of the condo and be on the beach and relax. Lots of beach paraphernalia comes with this rental. Very comfortable inside too. We really enjoyed our stay.

Mahalo for your stay. Come back again anytime . Nancy
Great experience in an excellent location. The beach with snorkeling right outside provides lots of options close by, with racquet courts, pool, and bbq. The in-unit views and ocean wave sound scape added to the relaxation. Would recommend!
Our stay was wonderful. We appreciated the details like having beach equipment and a cooler available and night lights in the condo. The well equipped kitchen and washer dryer really helped our family for the logistics of life. We loved the beach access for the kiddos to play in the sand (not a swimming beach) and watch sunsets. The location was perfect and access to groceries and restaurants as well island activities. Mahalo for a great stay!
This area is truely wonderful. It about a ten minute walk to the best snorkeling and turtles ever. This property is also a reasonable walk to shopping and cafes that were excellent. This property has exceptional views and is perfectly set up and equipped for an excellent stay. I would highly recommend this property and would love to visit again.
All the rooms were very clean and comfortable. The kitchen light didn’t work(which we were told about) so we brought the lamp into the kitchen.

Thank you for staying. We are sorry about the fan in the kitchen with the light. The last guest did not tell us about the fan and it’s a special order because of size. We didn’t have enough time to get it in before your stay. We are working if to replace it now .
There was a light over the stove and under the counters . Please let me know if something when wrong with those? We want to make everyone’s stay special and even add robs for special touch z mahalo , Nancy
They call us the "adventure" couple. We love to travel and have fun. This island is perfect for those looking for an amazing life experience. We started coming to the Island over 25 years ago and continued to come back. This island stole our hearts and continues to give us amazing stories to tell each time we visit. We love the surfing, boogie boarding, hiking, kayaking, music and all the island has to offer. Out of all the condos we stayed in KKKS was the best and we love our community. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It’s a magical experience as you can see from our reviews.
Why they chose this property
We have spent a lot of time designing this home to make your experience special. We did not spare any expense in transforming this home into a romantic hide away for you and your family. We know you will return year after year. We are one of the few units with full mini split AC. As the weather changes you will appreciate its use.
What makes this property unique
This property is on a semi-private pepper sand beach with views from all the windows. You will love the property and updated atmosphere. Only a few properties in Kona with this type of view and detail. You will enjoy the waves crashing at night as you slumber after a hard day of play.
