AC was really good. There’s a few shops down the road from you as well, really nice market that’s 5 minute walk. A small beach in the opposite direction. Most importantly, we enjoyed how close it’s to town and mutiple beaches

Disliked: Cleanliness
Tiffany was very cheerful and welcoming when we call on the way from the airport. We appreciated having two beach chairs and a beach umbrella, air conditioning to lessen the heat and humidity and to disguise the sound of traffic (the door is 25’ from the highway), nice beach-themed art on the walls, a big quiet fan over the bed, comfortable bed and pillows, the clean pool with umbrella tables right next to the waves. Overall, it could use some more cleaning and maintenance, and the outside of the fridge is rusty, but Tiffany was responsive to our needs, such as when the sliding screen door fell off its track or the kitchen lights were too dim. The cost of our stay was quite low compared to most properties in Kona, we slept well and enjoyed a beach-side pool, so seems like a good value.

This was a great place to stay. The bed and the living quarters were very comfortable. The sunsets from the pool were the most special experience. Beach chairs and towels were convenient. All in all this was more affordable and close to everything one may need in a visit.

Nice location in Kona. The unit itself is close to the road but it was quiet enough not to be bothersome. Beautiful oceanfront pool. We appreciated the owner/manager accommodating us with an early check in. The unit itself could use some refreshing in terms of decor and lighting, such as bedside lamps on both sides of the bed and something besides the ceiling light in the main area.

Perfect Stay for Our Quick Trip

Our trip to the Big Island was short this time around but the vacation rental was amazing. It was exactly what we needed for the few days we were there and the location was very convenient. The whole process from check in to check out was easy and was communicated with us well!

Old and dated

Unit is very dated. There is one bed and a sofa sleeper. I can’t imagine how 4 people could stay here. There is only one little sofa inside which seats 2. Also one small 5 drawer dresser so you couldn’t unpack more than two. The fridge is very rusty and stained in outside. The lids to the pots are greasy. After taking off my shoes and walking on the floor my feet were dirty. Unit is right on the main road so very noisy at night with cars, motorcycles and trucks. Porch light is burned out so difficult to operate lock box in the dark.

The property was awesome! I had one small issue with a spider, could happen anywhere! Make sure that the Raid is stocked lol. Location was very nice, close to the coffee shop. Hostess was very helpful. Make sure to take in the view of the pool. Also, a step stool for the microwave would be nice. We are shortl!

OK spot in Kona (Read On)

The advertisement is a bit misleading. The complex has a small rocky beach that is oceanfront in the very back. This unit is in the front of the complex and on the main road, so there is alot of traffic noise and you could feel the big subwoofers when they drove by. The unit is old and in need of updating. Refridgerator is rusty. Really, it has a bunch of rust on it. On the positives, it is a short 1 mile walk to the downtown area close to everyting, the bed was comfy and the ac worked well.

Great rental for 2 people. Pool was beautiful! Less tha 1/2 mile to magic sands and wave pool. Coffee shop is next door. We could hear the road, but we’re just not the types that bothers. Disabled mother had no issues accessing the unit from parking. Contact person was wonderful and made check in so easy!

Disappointing

Lovely pool and commons area, but the condo is dark, dank and musty. It is 20 feet from busy Ali’i Drive, so it is quite noisy. Not what we expected from a VRBO rental, ie: rusty fridge, smelly rug and no bar of soap in the bathroom.
