Amazing beach condo

You cannot get a better location than this condo. Sleep to the sound of the ocean. Very close to town and other beaches. Quiet condo complex. The tide pooling was amazing right out in front of the condo. Sandy beach strip which is hard to find on the Kona side

Review of our two weeks in condo

Outstanding view. Great facilities. Convenient parking. Safe. Large lanai with nice furniture. Comfortable beds. Very modern washer/dryer set. Watched surfers and big waves all day long. Da Poke Shack restaurant was wonderful and on-site. Banyan Market across the street had nice assortment of food and beverages. Two miles from Kailua Kona center, so car necessary. Bus was available. Farmers market and taco stand short walking distance. Magic Sands Bar and Grill is one mile south.

Beautiful ocean front condo

This was the perfect place for our ladies’ trip! Watching the surfers and the sunset from the lanai was so awesome ! The condo had everything we needed, and we loved the little beach and the pool! Parking was easy ( not to be taken for granted!) and another big plus was that “Da Poke Shack” is in the same complex! Can’t wait to stay there again on our next trip to Hawaii!

Paradise on the ocean

We had 3 generations here for an absolutely amazing vacation in paradise. Sleeping at night with the doors open and falling asleep to the sound of the waves crashing just feet away.... it just doesn't get any better. We had a wonderful vacation with our son, daughter in law and granddaughter who live far from us. Thank you for the memories!!!
