Beautiful condo! Well appointed Kitchen. Amazingly responsive hosts. Felt at home immediately. Beach chairs, boogie boards and things to play on the beach with! Loved eating on the Lanai. Magic sands beach is beautiful! Close to Walmart, Costco and delicious restaurants! However we mostly ate at the condo since the kitchen was beautiful and had everything in it you needed to cook! Used it as our home base and traveled all over the island! We will definitely come back!!

Excellent, updated condo in great location

It was perfect. Very comfortable for me, wife and 2 teenagers. Great ocean view from the balcony; nice small swimming pool; pool table provided hours of fun for the kids. Great location, short drive to Kona and grocery/drug stores. Magic Sands Beach right across the street is delightful.

Fantastic place to stay

We loved this property and it's location. The kitchen was well equipped with new appliances. The rooms were both comfortable, especially the one with the balcony. The pool was great and there are numerous BBQs to use. There were 4 boogie boards, though two were cracked, but still functional. They was also some snorkel gear, enough for a couple people, plenty of beach towels, beach chairs, and coolers. There is a beach right across the street, it is small and crowded and is not for very young kids but fun for boogie boarding. Lots of places to eat near by as well as a very nice grocery store. We loved our stay! We drove all over the island and found this to be a great base station!

Clean condo and quiet

The condo is very clean and quiet. There are a few things that need to be addressed by owner/property manager. I sent my concerns to them first as I believe they should know ahead of others. These are MY concerns: There are only 2 washcloths and towels per bathroom- needs more. AC only goes to 74. Mismatched coffee mugs - all novelty mugs = cheap. No ironing board. Towel bar fell off wall twice. Refrigerator smelled bad. We had to buy baking soda to combat smell. Good location To magic sands beach. A few miles to town.

This is a really lovely unit. Redone well, beautiful view, solid internet, beach easy. The premises are very easy to navigate. Parking was simple and instructions were clear. It’s clearly someone’s home. I would have given 5 stars but it needs a more vacationer friendly vibe. A few examples, the bathroom for the secondary room has a broken toilet paper holder and towel holder. There were only 4 beach towels. In the kitchen there was only one dish towel and no dish rack for non dishwasher safe items like pots and pans. The coffee maker leaks. There isn’t a welcome package with details on the rules or small coffee for the first am. I will note that while a welcome package isn’t necessary, we came in very late and couldn’t have stopped for groceries, so no coffee for am would have been welcome and we come to white sands a lot most of the units have a small bag of coffee and some snack for arrival. Towels were scarce in both bathrooms there was literally one roll of toilet paper. Happy to purchase but 1 seems skimpy. There were no extra linens, we stayed for two weeks and spent a lot of time washing linens. Lastly, the code provided did not work upon arrival. As I said it was late, so we waited 40 minutes for someone to get to us. And it happened in the middle of our stay also. The code suddenly stopped working, this time the response was faster but it was during business hours, so only 20 minutes, but not ideal. Anyway, it really is a nice unit.

Hawaii Trip including Pearl Harbor

We really enjoyed the property, cleanliness and location. However, our interaction with the property host was not good. We were sent a text on our check in day that the washer wasn't working and would be repaired the next day. I subsequently tried to reach the host (various ways) and only got one text response saying they thought that they had responded and that they were trying to get a repair part. This was the 3rd day of our stay and we didn't hear back the rest of the stay regarding the broken washer. We were there for 8 days. This lack of communication was disappointing. If not for this, I would definitely book this location again.

Just as advertised

Condo was exactly as pictured on the website. Everything one would need to cook and eat was available. Chairs in living room were comfortable. Mattress was great. Slept good on it. AC was real handy; especially after coming in from the beach. Beach couldn't have been much easier to get to. Umbrella and beach chairs were great for the beach trips. Good view of the ocean from the lanai. Covered parking was nice for keeping the rental car cool. Short drive to town and grocery stores.

Great Family Vacation

The condo was exactly as listed and even better in person. The furniture and finishes were clean and modern. The location, while not beach front, was just a short walk down the drive way to Magic Sands beach. The view from the lanai was lovely and a surprising plus was the beautiful plumeria tree right in front of the lanai. We would absolutely book again if available for our next visit.

Relaxing Stay

Unit is very close to the elevator and on the second floor. The lanai is set up as an extra living area and is totally private because of its location. Beds were comfortable but watch out for toes on the bed legs. Kitchen was nicely set up. There are beach items for your use. The beach is down at the bottom of the steep entrance to the complex. Great restaurant on the beach

Great spot

We chose this condo because it had two king beds and two bathroom's. It looked just like the pictures. It is right across the street from magic sands beach,which we loved, and had all the beach accessories you could need. If we return to the big island we will definitely stay here again. 1 thing to be aware of is the bathroom doors are slated and not solid so not much in the sense of privacy. You can't see in, but you can hear everything. A little awkward if you're traveling with friends.
