Wedding week

Very nice, supplied with everything we needed. We were here for our sons wedding and it worked very well for us. The only thing negative i can think of is the tub is a little slick and the top plug of the outlets by the bed didn't seem to work. The bottom ones do? Overall it was a very nice stay.

Convenient and comfortable

The condo complex and pool was nice, right on the shoreline for great sunsets. Condo was clean with all the amenities expexted. Clean and comfortable, no complaints other than would prefer a keyless entry rather than having the lock box when you have your hands full.

Great Spot!

The room was great! Kitchen was well stocked and there were lots of supplies available for the beach! It was walking distance to a market and beach and sunsets watchable from next to the pool area. If you have young kids, just be aware that they do not like splashing, jumping or "excited play" in the pool area. There are a lot of full time residents there that don't like it Besides that, it was amazing!

Very nice and clean condo. Appreciate the beach amenities household items that made it very home like. The Tupperware full of different needed items was very thoughtful so we didn’t have to go buy those items (coffee and filters, storage bags, dish and laundry soap, etc).Convenient location in Kona and walking distance to downtown.

Great location

We loved being close to town and some great beaches. We walked to Green Flash for coffee and smoothies every morning. Magic sands beach was our favorite beach on the whole island, and it was just down the road. The property had everything we needed. Only one complaint—we were disappointed that the pool wasn’t very kid-friendly. There was a long list of rules including no horseplay or games like Marco Polo. The pool is way too small for laps so I’m not sure what anyone would do in it if not play.

Nice condo in a great location

We had a terrific stay at this condo. The location is great and provides easy access to Kailua-Kona and nearby beaches and attractions. This particular unit is located adjacent to the parking lot rather than the ocean, but we found this convenient for loading in and loading out since we used it primarily as a home base for day trips and activities. The condo was spacious enough to accommodate our group of 6 adults and had everything we needed, including a fully equipped kitchen and two full bathrooms. The bedrooms are large with plenty of closet space. The pool and hot tub area are nice, and the property opens up to a rocky shoreline where you can watch the waves and enjoy a peaceful sunset. The unit provides some beach chairs, towels and boogie boards, which was convenient. We enjoyed our time here and would stay again in a future visit to the island.

Great stay

We had a great stay on the island of Hawaii. I wish we could have stayed longer, as we were just there for a few days to visit family. The unit was very close to many restaurants and shops. The grounds were very nice, with lots of activities like a pool, ping pong table, and a beautiful sitting area to view the sunsets over the water. The unit was stocked full of everything you would need. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The condo was great for our group of 6. The pull out bed wasn’t very comfortable but that’s to be expected. Although the back lanai view wasn’t the greatest we still had views of all the beautiful flowers and plants. Loved that there were beach chairs, snorkel gear and even a couple coolers to take with us to the beach.
