About this property

Our fabulous condo at the Kona Reef overlooks Honl's Beach Park and the beautiful turquoise blues and greens of the crystal clear ocean. From the 3rd floor lanai complete with ceiling fan, you have a fantastic palm-dotted view of the sand and the surf. You can watch the surfers and boogie boarders perform in the waves or spot an occasional sea turtle near the shore. In the winter, you may even spot some whales breeching offshore.

Inside, the condo has been decorated with the natural elements of the island. Bamboo walls and tropical colors add to the ambiance of this unique spot on the Big Island and remind you of the paradise that awaits you outside. The bedroom comes complete with a romantic king-size bed. The living room has a sofa-sleeper for extra guests. The full kitchen is complete with all of the amenities of home. We have spared no expense to make sure that you temporary home in paradise is one that you will want to retun to year after year.

There are so many things to do on the Big Island and the Kona Reef is located within walking distance to many attractions including lots shops and restaurants. You can choose between water activities such as swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, surfing, and boogie boarding. You can kayak, fish, or just take a walk along the beach and explore the tidal pools. If you are more adventuous, you can try parasailing or take a look at the vocanoe by helicoptor or plane. There is also golf, dinner cruises and of course, just sitting on the beach with a good book.

Our condo is a perfect place to enjoy all that the activities that the Big Island has to offer.

Kona condo

Beautiful location off smaller beach, fun to watch surfers and visitors every morning. Smaller set up inside condo but perfect for a couple. Bed was comfortable but windows above bed had lights that were pretty bright at night. We ended up not having toilet paper or paper towels stoked so had to grab ourselves from the store. Close walking distance to several shopping area’s and restaurants. Overall we had a good stay.

Great location!

The Honl’s Beach next door was a real plus! You can see it from the lanai and they had “drop in” yoga there every morning at 8 am. Kathy has beach chairs for your use. The pool and hot tub were great also as I did my laps every day. Being able to walk around Kailua Kona was a plus for shopping and eating and I would definitely recommend Lava-Java and the historic Kona Inn for dinner! Kathy was very accommodating and easy to communicate with!

Location, location, location!

This unit overlooks a small but very popular beach, great to sip coffee in the morning and watch body boarders and surfers, people watch, then since is just on the south end of Kialua-Kona easy to walk all over town and hit restaurants, water activities. One afternoon we watched a pod of spinner dolphins for about 15 minutes. The sunsets were great and sometimes you can see the “green flash” that occurs in tropical areas just as the sun goes down. The owner responded within a couple of minutes to our few questions. The unit here has the best view with beach access of any place in Kialua-Kona. Other larger hotels look down on rocky surf but no good way to dip your toes in the ocean.

Well equipped in perfect location

We had an amazing stay at Kathy’s place in Kona Reef. The house is well taken care of and extremely well equipped - the beach equipment was our particular fave. The location is absolutely perfect and we spent many hours just sitting on the balcony watching whales jump in the ocean. Kathy was an extremely responsive and accommodating host. I’d recommend anyone book this place and we’ll definitely be back!

Just as pictured

Pros: Kathy’s property is well represented in her listing. The place was very clean and nicely maintained. We were very comfortable here. Kathy is very responsive and always willing to go the extra mile for your requests. The pool area is clean and comfortable with a nice view. You have the choice of sitting in the pool area or out front on the oceanfront. A lot of good conversations were had there. It’s an easy wall to the downtown Cons: The street noise can be heard from the unit. The walkway is right behind the bedroom and can be disturbing, although most of the guests were fairly quiet it could be a problem if you have disrespectful renters.

The owner has done a great job of decorating the condo and lots of amenities like beach chairs, boogie boards, etc. While a few drawbacks like no A/C in bedroom (we were fine with fan but imagine it is very hot in summer) and some difficulty with small and limited parking slots, overall a great place and great value.

Great place to stay in Kona!

This was a great unit to stay in. Literally, everything is provided. Shampoo and conditioner, body wash, bathroom spray, fridge condiments, chairs for the beach, etc. It wasn't missing a thing. The unit is exactly as shown. If you're into yoga, you can go down to the beach for an 8 am yoga class.The bed was even very comfy. Sunsets from the beach or pool area were beautiful. The pool area/hot tub were great. Many chairs available for sitting by the pool. The grill area was very nice although we did not use it. The unit is close enough to walk to some restaurants. If you are in good health, you could walk all the way to the shopping district. The biggest downfall is parking for shopping. The pay lots are expensive and trying to find free parking is not easy. Some restaurants that we enjoyed were LaVerne's, J's Fish and Grill and Quinn's Almost by the Sea. We did not have a good experience at Fish Hopper. There are stairs to get to this unit. If you take the elevator up, then you go down a small flight to get to the unit. That's the only disadvantage of it. The owner is great. We chatted many times before our stay. She was very helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we returned to the Big Island. Thanks Kathy for a great stay!

No power and no communication with the office

There was an unusually large storm while we stayed at this condo. The power went out for around five hours. The stove is electric so we couldn’t cook and we couldn’t see in the dark. There were two old candles sitting on a table but we had no lighter or matches. The office was closed. Many of us in the condos went to Safeway to buy a lighter. We got back and couldn’t light the old candles. Too much dust on the wick. We bought more candles and used them to see. Quite an adventure. There wasn’t any dishwasher detergent to run it. It’s the little things that you want to follow the directions at the end of our stay but really couldn’t follow because of supplies. I tried to call the cleaning people when we left, as per direction by the door. It was a number no longer in service. Otherwise we enjoyed ourselves. Unfortunately the storm lasted two days. Weather happens.

Ideal location to walk Kona-Kailua and explore Big Island

This was an incredible location to utilize as a home base to stay in Kailua Kona. Very easy walk to Huggos and Huggos on the Rocks and an easy walk to all the shops and other restaurants. The pool and hot tub and ocean view were very nice from the common areas and the private balcony overlooking the public beach was great to drink coffee or have late night drink. Everything works here and the owner is extremely accessible and easy to work with. Would definitely stay again.

Great Location. Clean, good AC, Perfect for a Couple

Very nice updated condo in a perfect location for Kona shore-side area. Good and plentiful parking. Short drive into town. You'll have a nice view of surfers sitting on the lanai with coffee in the morning or adult beverage in the afternoon. Pool area very nice, and great sunset views from there! Host was very responsive to questions and a minor glitch with a fan. Note that parking is expensive in Kona at the pay lots - as much as $15/hr. There are two free lots across from Kai's Restaurant - ask them for more info.
