Great spot to stay with ocean views

We loved staying in this condo, owners were super helpful and responsive, you have everything you need (beach gear included), and it is close to everything. Plus you can listen the the ocean and watch the sunset right from the unit! The place is a little older, but the pictures are very accurate, and it was well taken care of. We'd stay again

Lovely location

The best review one can give is "we would come here again." The condo is small but perfect for a couple. The place could use some updating but who cares? It's a gorgeous view in a perfect location and all you need is supplied. Very much appreciated the excellent selection of Tupperware and the coffee maker. Just a few tips: one small flight of stairs to navigate. If you sleep with the window open you might be awakened by the birds or people throwing out trash. The bed is high and comfy with plenty of pillows. Not a lot of towels but they have an excellent washer and dryer. We rented a car and could always find a spot. Pantry had lots of random things like Pam and Salt and foil. Brita water pitcher in the fridge. No ice maker but ice trays provided. Great TV. AC will freeze you out and the ceiling fans are quiet. Bathroom gets hot (nonAC or fan) so shower with the door open. Hairdryer is good. Pool is lovely and the grilling area is great. Very glad we found C31!

Loved Kona Reef

Had a wonderful time at Kona Reef. The condo was lovely, well-appointment with gorgeous ocean views. We enjoyed breakfast every morning on the lanai. The complex is very nice and clean with a nice area for BBQing. The location could not be more perfect— beachfront with a beautiful grassy area to enjoy the beautiful sunsets, and best of all within walking distance to shops and restaurants at Kailua-Kona village. Great communication with our host, Conrad. We would definitely stay there again.

All That We Hoped For and More

My husband and I had never been to Hawaii before our trip to the Big Island. When I saw our condo at Kona Reef- I knew we had to stay there. The booking process was simple, Conrad answered all my questions within less than an hour, and all the instructions from how to get to the condo from the airport to accessing the condo, etc., were clear and easy to understand. Our stay was amazing. The condo had everything we needed. The kitchen has plenty of cookware, there is beach gear including an umbrella (very handy), and a large cooler and ice packs that were great for our daily outings. We like to grill so the area by the pool that offers a common area with grills and seating provided the perfect space for us to spend our evenings while watching the sun set. Ahhhh the sunsets- like nothing we’d ever seen. If you are considering this condo- do it! You won’t regret it. Great area, the property has a great feel, it’s within walking distance to the village which has great food, coffee shops, farmers markets, and shopping. We will 100% be back!

Kailua-Kona condo

Great property for our stay! Pool was lovely- refreshing in the heat. The condo had a fully stocked kitchen, complete with storage containers, so that we could cook (grill) at home when we wanted to. Quiet, except for the waves and local birds♡. Thank you!

June 11-21 2024. Great location in Kona

My husband and I came to the big island for the first time to visit our daughter who is currently living there. The location was perfect; close enough to downtown that we were able to walk there multiple times a day if we wanted. The unit was clean and had plenty of amenities, not to mention the view of the ocean from the lanai where we spent most of our time. Conrad was very helpful and answered our questions right away. We will definitely stay there when we come again for a visit!

Hawaiian Dreams do COME TRUE!

From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. Conrad and Denise provided written instructions for us, which were very useful. Their suggestions covered every question we had,from who to contact with questions about the condo and property, to recommending excursions, and shopping. Their condo looks exactly the as posted on VRBO, and was clean and comfortable. We did not want to leave! Our next trip to Kailua-Kona, to visit family we hope this condo is available.

Wonderful stay in Kona Reef condos!

My husband and I had a wonderful time staying in Kona Reef condos this past week. The weather was beautiful, the views from the room spectacular and the unit itself was comfortable and cozy. It was so easy to walk from the unit into town for dinner and shopping. The pool was clean and while busy, there was always seating available. The condo was well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We could keep the doors/windows open to hear the ocean and take in the breezes during the day. Road noise was minimal as the bedroom backs up toward the street side. Bed was super comfortable but bring an eye mask if you are sensitive to light because the condo complex keeps the outside lights on all night and it gets a little bright in the bedroom. We didn’t use the beach next to the condo because we preferred the white sand beaches on Kauna’oa Bay - about 50 minutes north of here. Highly recommend taking a ride up this way. Also, don’t miss the Volcanic National park. We were lucky enough to be there when Kilauea erupted! Stop and spend some time at Punalu’u Black sand beach if you head south. Great trip overall and pleased to use the condo as our home away from home. Will definitely stay here again in our next trip to the big island!

Love Kona Reef and this unit

Get the best of both world with a spectacular ocean view as well as people watch over the pool (I also like to scope out the pool before going down so this was perfect). It’s the little things that matter and it’s obvious that the owners of this condo also use it for their pleasure as well. I had everything I needed for my stay and it was very clean and comfortable. Definitely will stay here again is available.

Great Place!

Well-appointed condo was exactly as advertised, with view of pool, ocean, and surfers from the lanai. Wi-Fi worked, check-in and check-out were easy. Property very well maintained, lots of workers daily. Very convenient, easy walk to downtown for meals, though kitchen was well-equipped. Pre-visit information provided by owner was extensive and helpful. He was very responsive to questions and concerns. Altogether, a great place to stay and take advantage of the remarkable diversity of the Big Island!

Ideal Kona stay

This is an excellent choice for a Kona stay. The listing has everything you need. Easy parking, location on the ocean side of the road, view of the sea, nice pool, hot tub, and barbecue, comfortable bed, kitchen that can actually be used and easy communication with the host. One great thing is how easy it is to walk into the town. There is literally no good parking in Kailua-Kona unless you are willing to pay a ton. So being able to walk in was wonderful. I would highly recommend this condo if you are looking in this price range.

This was the second year in a row that we've stayed in this condo. We love the location near shopping, restaurants and of course the view. Great spot to also venture out to any part of the island. Volcano National Park is a must see with lava flowing in the crater once again.

About the host

Hosted by Conrad and Denise Hayden

Host profile image
My wife Denise and I are from Colorado. Owning in Kailua-Kona has been a dream of ours for over 16 years, but I first came to Hawaii as a child when it was still a territory. I grew up mostly in the Philippine Islands as my dad was Army/Air Force and my mom is Filipina. Denise is originally from the Garden State of New Jersey. We met in college, married and went on to be life-long educators. I have been bringing family here since 2004 and we still find tremendous magic in this tropical paradise called Hawai'i. We hope you will consider our condo as part of your vacation journey to the Aloha land of Big Island Hawaii.

Why they chose this property

This Kona Reef property appealed to my wife and me for many reasons, but most of all: Location, Location, Location! Other condos advertise a small window of a distant ocean view and then tell you that ocean is a 5 minute drive away and the nearest sandy beach is 3.6 miles away. Then they charge about the same per night as we do! Take a peek at the unique benefits of our Kona Reef condo.

What makes this property unique

* Oceanfront, you can see, smell and hear the roar of the Pacific Ocean surf!
* Spacious, private top floor lanai to take in those beautiful Hawaiian sunsets!
* Top floor corner condo gives the most privacy and best views!
*Honl Beach immediately(1 minute) next door (sandy Hawaii public beach) (rare in Kona)
* Great spot for sunbathers and surfers! Surf's Up! Not surfing? Go to our pool/ hot tub!
* Top floor, corner condo, lots of windows in every room for sea breeze ventilation!
*Sea Life viewing, shore birds, dolphins, whales (during winter),Green Sea Turtles.
*Short walking distance (1/4mi,) to historic Kailua-Village (coffeeshops, Great restaurants, tourist shops, farmers market).
* Downtown Kailua- Kona is 1 mile away. ( Food, Liquor, Drug Stores and more)
* BEST location on Hawaii to jump to multitudes of tourist destinations on Big Island! Hawaiian Luaus; active Kilauea Volcano; Gorgeous Waterfalls, Coffee Farms, Macadamian Nut Farms, Chocolate farms, Orchid nurseries: Wineries: Vanilla farm: Tropical Rainforests. Incredible Seaside Cliff views.
