Great central Kona condo

My family including 2 kids, 3 adults used this condo as a home base in Kona. The decor may be a bit dated, but everything was functional and just what we needed. We appreciated the beach supplies including boogie boards, chair, towels, etc. We especially enjoyed having AC as it was quite hot during our stay

Great place, but downstairs neighbor is a jerk

We had a bit of trouble finding the rental unit when we arrived late at night. But once we found it, the keypad worked like a charm and the unit was clean and as described. The condo location is nice and convenient. The lanai looks out onto the golf course next door and we used the electric grill to prepare dinner a couple of evenings. We enjoyed the pool and morning walks to the nearby dock. The condo also had snorkels, fins, boogie board, beach chair, cooler, an umbrella that we borrowed for our trips to nearby beaches (King Kam beach was our family's favorite). We have nothing bad to say about the unit itself, but the downstairs neighbor was a bit of a nightmare. He screamed at us the first morning as we were leaving for breakfast, accusing us of being too loud and stomping on the floors the night before. When he thought we were making too much noise, he banged on his ceiling to express his displeasure. Most nights, when we returned from our daily activities, he would leer at us from behind the screen door. He even yelled at my son for playing with his plants. Admittedly, my kids can get a bit noisy and rambunctious at times. They did get a bit excited that first night when checking out our new place. But this jerk had seemingly zero tolerance for even a little bit of noise. It felt like we were walking on eggshells all week, and the dynamic definitely made our trip less enjoyable. Overall, it was a good place, but families should be warned about the jerk downstairs.

Location

We have rented this condo 3 times for 3 months because of location. Perfect for us as we paddle for a canoe club that we can walk to. Condo itself? The complex itself has a great manager, Jay, and grounds are meticulously maintained. The condo - inferior to others in complex. (We have rented in 3 others). However, Not renting again. Each year fees go up and upkeep of this unit goes down. We are told by owner what a “deal” we are getting. It is very tired. One example: Lanai furniture has never changed-plastic fold up table, sun bleached, discolored plastic chairs. Look around at other lanais in same complex. Amenities- scarce. Fry pans so scratched- unsanitary for use. Coffee pot bottom burned. Towels & sheets threadbare, one thin blanket, garbage disposal kept breaking-we reset each time.When we asked items were supplied. The question being? Why did we have to keep asking. If you have reasonable cleaning standards, they will not be met here. Incidentally, checked area cleaning fees—-highest in area. We have rented another, comparable, but very updated condo for less money. Regardless of what is said, they are available. If staying for a short stay/ doable. Longer? I’d look elsewhere.

Great place to stay on the Big Island

The property was clean, spacious, in a great location to Kona and amenities and very well furnished Our unit would be perfect for a family of 3/4. The lanai is large and we enjoyed breakfast outside every morning with a beautiful view. Overall very pleased with our choice and a special mention to Meredith and Scott for their assistance during our stay.

Got message while flying that the water heater was broken and could not be fixed for 3 days. After the 3 days, no one called or showed up. WE called and were told it would be another 2 days until it could be fixed We had to go to another unit to shower We canceled and went to an Air BNB where we could shower in our unit. Very unfortunate because the unit was nice

A wonderful and affordable rental.

This was a great rental in Kona for a family of 4...the air conditioning was wonderfully quiet. This condo was clean neat, an adequately stocked. The only issue was the two loads of laundry required was feasible for an early flight- only one wash was completed of the sheets.

Definitely Best Value as Advertised

Condo had everything needed for a family of four. Washer dryer was great, kitchen well stocked, outdoor grill worked great, nice spacious patio, a/c worked as promised. Some of the snorkeling gear and other beach gear needs replacing but we brought some of our own snorkel gear and found enough at the condo to add to it. Love Kona! Such a relaxing place for a family vacation!

Kona post Christmas 2021

Very nice condo, ocean view complex, ocean sounds at night! Right on golf course. It’s an older community but very clean and accessible. A/C was def appreciated! Beds were comfortable, easy check in& out process. Only complaint was the building mngr? Came knocking on door to tell us we had parked on grass and needed to move immediately and implied we may have damaged a sprinkler head. The assigned parking slot is very odd shape and angled from other spots. I was only a few inches on grass and def no where near a sprinkler head. His approach was rude and unprofessional- did he need to make a snide remark along the lines of “ where’d they get their drivers license/sho taught them to drive”. Really?! I’m a 24 year veteran truck driver, but I came in late, in an unfamiliar rental car, parking in a dark parking area that has many shadows bcuz of the upslope. Totally left a bad taste in my mouth. This unpleasant encounter was quickly followed up by a friendly text from the property manager about the same issue. I explained the situation, she was very nice and probably saved the rental. Overall- good locale, well stocked condo as advertised. Long term residents were very friendly with great activitity suggestions.

Great Value Great Location!

This is a well kept property with everything you need! Located on the golf course, gorgeous sunsets and sunrises (you are allowed walk down to lava beach on golf course after 5 p.m. to watch unobstructed sunset--locals do it daily). Pool is easy to find. Having the AC was great! The washer dryer was new and very useful! Shopping center right up the street with KTA grocery store, drug store, restaurants, etc. Very convenient. It is a very short drive to Kalauu Snorkel beach and a short drive to Magic Sands beach. We would stay here again in a a heartbeat! This is a top floor unit. The 2nd bedroom with two twins is really best for kids. Our 8 and 11 year olds were happy there. It would be a squeeze for adults, and one wall of the 2nd bedroom is an accordion divider from the living room that can open during the day. King in the master was comfortable and great. LOTS of pillows! The pull out couch would not be a comfortable option for someone's bed for a week. We tried it one night and it sleeps like an old pull out couch. But we didn't need it and were *very* happy with the accommodations overall. Excellent location, beautiful spot in Kona convenient to everything without being noisy and busy.

Great location and value for the price

We spent a week at this property in March 2021, on our first outing after getting fully vaxxed. The Big Island was a great place to start and this property was perfectly located. It is indeed a big island but this was just central enough to make our trips north and south work well, and far enough from the larger Kailua-Kona bustle. We didn't drive to the Hilo side, and that would have been a bit more of a challenge. The golf course made for a pleasant view from the lanai, and we played it a couple of times. The walk up to the local shopping center was easy although a number of shops were still closed or limited hours when we were there; perhaps better now. Walks down to the bay were very nice especially early in the day when cooler. The unit was very well equipped and we lacked for nothing during our stay. I will agree with another reviewer about the "second bedroom" being a little misleading with its accordion closure and bordering on the lanai, so not really a great deal of privacy. However we were just a couple and used it for sorting gear for our next outing etc so it was fine. Not sure where occupants 5 and 6 would sleep though, unless you sleep 4 on the king bed. But other than that, nothing negative to report at all.
