About this property

Alii Villas #332 On Ocean Fantastic View. Watch Dolphins, boats and canoes go by

Come enjoy a fabulous time in an ocean front property in Kailua-Kona Hawaii. This unit is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath home at a premier location at Ali'i Villas. The décor of this unit has been done in cool coastal and has just been remodeled top to bottom. Shoji screens can be drawn if you need additional privacy in Master. Most like to keep them open for that breezy open vibe.
Ocean surrounds this unit from every window, and you will be staying in the endcap unit directly on the ocean. Sit on your lanai sipping Kona coffee as the dolphin's frolic in the water almost daily.
All day long you will hear the sounds of the waves crashing on the rocks, see the ships come in, look down and see beautiful fish. The unit does not have air but, if you open the front door and lanai, you will enjoy our beautiful trade winds. Overhead fans are located in each room, beautifully appointed baths and a fabulous kitchen. I have put a nice built-in desk so you can work remotely in comfort, with usb connections for your electronics. The unit is supplied with everything you will need to enjoy a Blessed and Amazing Vacation. The condo is located on the 3rd floor, and we do not have elevators. Welcome to Kailua-Kona and my Ohana.

Beautiful condo with breathtaking view

Condo had everything we needed and the view from the large balcony was gorgeous. Condo was very tastefully updated as well. We spent a lot of time on the balcony and also enjoyed having Honl beach so close by (small beach but we sometimes had it to ourselves!). Wonderful location as well. We would definitely stay again.

Loved the view and location

This condo’s location is one of the best on property. The view and sounds from the balcony lulled us to sleep each night. Plenty of room and met all our needs as a family including beach stuff, kitchen supplies, and pool/cookout area on property. Kona is beautiful and the location was accessible to everything. Great parking situation as well. You do need to be able to climb stairs. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

I really enjoyed my morning walks to grab coffee. The neighborhood felt very safe and the parking spot is conveniently right in front of the unit.

Best condo in Alii Villas

We nicknamed this condo the "Penthouse" of Alii Villas. It's the last unit next to the ocean, on the third floor, and has unobstructed ocean views, cool ocean breezes, and amazing sunsets from the large lanai. If you love to hear the sound of waves crashing on the rocks this is the condo for you. It is comfortable and has everything you need, including beach chairs and towels to take with you on your outings. The kitchen is well equipped should you feel like cooking. It's a short mile walk to downtown Kona for shopping and restaurants. We highly recommend this condo.

This is THE best place we’ve ever stayed anywhere!

First of all, if we could have bought this place, we would have in a heartbeat. Everything about the condo and our experience was perfect. The ocean view is unmatched. Drifting off to sleep each evening listening to the sound of the ocean is pure bliss. The beachy decor is a perfect compliment to its location. The entire condo has been remolded and is just beautiful. I was worried at first about no air conditioning but my worries quickly faded with the trade winds and the awesome ceiling fans. If you open the windows and doors and have the fans on, it’s the perfect temperature night and day. The sunset views are breathtaking. I know for certain that when my family goes back to the Big Island, we will be contacting Betsy to book our accommodations. Thank you for helping make our stay perfect.

About the host

Hosted by Betsy Merritt

Host profile image
Aloha,

I recently purchased this ocean front condo in Alii Villas. I absolutely love the island blessings in Kailua-Kona. I call it my little "Funky Town". I have been coming to Kona since 2016 and decided this is where I want to call home, officially moving to the island in 2020. I love our guests and many have become dear friends that I see annually. You will love our little Paradise. I am a retired financial planner and current USCG Maritime Captain. You just might see on the water!

Why they chose this property

The views and almost daily sighting of dolphins from your lanai is spiritually and mentally so fulfilling. You will leave the hustle and bustle of every day life to a slow and tranquil stay.

What makes this property unique

You are in walking distance to town, swimming area and you will enjoy our friendly neighbors.
