GREAT view/Great location

The condo has the potential to be beautiful. The view is absolutely AMAZING. The grounds of the resort are well kept. However, there were several things that needed fixing...the deck chairs, an upstairs window, the faucet, we had to ask for toilet paper because there was only one partial roll in the master bathroom, the fire alarm needed a new battery and let us know at about 2am one day. The pool was drained for two days of our stay which was unfortunate but scheduled by the facility. We had a great visit to the island but I most likely would not rent this particular condo again just because with the amount of money it brings in these small things mentioned should all have been long addressed before new renters came in. The best thing about the condo was the view.

Needs to be cleaned

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was perfect. Older building that could use updates and replace outside wicker furniture in the living room. The house was dirty! Hair in bathroom drains. The towels smelled so bad I washed them 4 times, still couldn’t get the smell out so I went out and bought towels. The washing machine has mold all through it.. no cleaning supplies to clean it ourselves so had to purchase that too. For the cost charged to clean, I expected better.

Big Disappointment

The view was amazing, but the condo is in desperate need of repairs. The patio furniture was horrible. All of the cushions were shredded, the wood on the table & chairs was peeling, the lounge furniture was rusted and worn. In fact, my husband fell through one of the chairs when he sat down. The living room furniture was clean but terribly uncomfortable with very thin cushions. The air conditioning didn't work because the sliding doors to the patio wouldn't close completely so the sensors didn't connect so the only time it cooled off was at night. The carpets were so dirty we wouldn't walk around without our flipflops on because our feet would get so filthy. The washing machine had mold on the rim. There were power outlets in the kitchen & living room that were falling out of the walls and could cause a fire. I have photos of all these issues. I emailed Wayne, the property manager, so he sent his assistant, Corrina, to come by. She ended up buying new cushions & lounge chairs for the patio and acknowledged all the other issues. The window in the loft was broken so she forced it open to get air flowing through. She had someone come try to fix the sliding glass doors but they couldn't fix them. Wayne was rude to me when I emailed him and said I was just looking for things to complain about. He was more concerned about trying to justify the poor quality of the condo. I've stayed at this complex many times and this is the worst unit I've seen.

Great views

The property is a bit on the older side, and with the vaulted ceilings, it can take a while for the rooms to be comfortable, especially when humid. The views fro the living room and master bedroom is beautiful, but the place itself is a bit outdated. Short stays would probably benefit from this place.

Absolutely would rent again. Few things to know…you have to carry any luggage up to third floor - no elevators! The condo has quirks - fans provided do a great job in cooling down the upper third bedroom, the main doors to the balcony are sticky so we used the other doors to enter/exit the balcony, the AC unit puts out a LOT of heat on the balcony. That out of the way, the location is priceless! Safe, convenient, quiet neighbors, enough parking, good internet, amazing sunsets, vast ocean views! Downstairs bedrooms are big and comfy, upstairs one is somewhat crowded with two single beds. Kitchen is well equipped. Most of all, prompt communication with manager picking up the phone and answering our questions! Thank you for a great stay.

perfect views

Pics are accurate, views were amazing! The complex itself is nice, pool was great, and it's in a good quiet location. The place could use some updating and fixes (doors sticking, some outlets almost falling out of the walls, fridge door would NOT stay closed, washer had mold on the door seal, etc) and the central air was not working very well. The upstairs loft area was HOT. We tried opening all the windows & letting the cross breeze cool things down but that only worked for a day or two. Our poor family members who were sleeping upstairs were sweaty & pretty over it by the end of the week. But we made do, we were in paradise, and we weren't spending a ton of time in the unit anyway - too much to see on the island!

Great place to stay!

I’m writing this review as I sit on the beautiful lanai of this property watching the waves gently crash on the rocks directly below my view. What a dream vacation. Kona has lots to offer travelers, and we took full advantage of the Big Island and all its virtues. As for the property, it was wonderful. Do not believe all the negative reviews. This condo is worn and well-loved, but it was not filthy or unusable. The hard floors were dirty when we arrived, but there is a stocked cleaning closet, so guess what; I did a quick mop and we were good to go. The appliances are old, but functional. Bed linens and bathrooms were clean and carpets were vacuumed. There is air-conditioning, which was a blessing in this humidity, but when it’s running, the lanai gets too hot to use, so that was a balance-act. All in all, it was a perfect setting for our vacation, and would definitely rent at the Surf and Racquet Club again.

Very dirty old condo—excellent location and grounds!

Rundown very dirty condo. Needs lots of cleaning and updating. Carpet was horrible and deck furniture was unusable! Towels old and ragged and pans in kitchen unusable. We purchased new glasses and pans to use during our 2 week stay! We stay at the Surf and Racquet Club every year, it is exceptionally beautiful, but never rented this condo and would not again.

Great View -well worn

The condo has a great view and had plenty of space for 4 of us. We enjoyed our stay . Just know going in (as we did) that this place has a lot miles on it. We had no major problems, but a handyman could spend a week or so tweaking sliding doors on the closets and master shower, the vertical blinds, electrical outlets, tv remotes, deck chairs … well you get the picture. On the plus side, the bed mattresses are decent, there are lots of beach toys in the closet and the top floor ocean view location is priceless.
