Feast your palate with this ocean front condo in the heart of Kailua Kona's "surf city". Spectacular early morning + evening sunsets awaits.
HAWAII AT ITS BEST! From the privacy of the extra long lanai (exclusive to 3 units), you will enjoy the perfect vantage point for watching whales seasonally, spinning dolphins, turtles, surfers, sailboats, and listen to the crashing waves. The small Banyan Tree condo complex is located midway between Kailua Kona and Keauhou. The Banyan Tree is a small, well-kept complex with only 20 units so it never feels crowded. The property is located as close as you can get to the Pacific Ocean. In fact new construction is no longer allowed to be as close to the ocean as Banyan Tree. The heated, ocean front pool has mesmerizing views and plenty of comfortable lounge chairs. Barbecue grills and a hot tub are also poolside. A spacious veranda next to the unit offers amazing views and larger tables for entertaining. Directly next door is a small, sandy beach which is a perfect entry for surfing, boogie boarding and paddle boarding.

Banyan Tree is centrally located on the sunny side of the Big Island in Kailua-Kona. Top rated restaurants like the Poke Shack and local farmers markets are minutes away. Downtown Kona, with galleries and shops is less than three miles. Alii drive, which is great for ocean walks, is right out the back door. Ready for the beach? Magic Sands Beach is less than a mile away. Kahalu'u Beach is only two miles and has easy snorkeling where you can get up-close to beautiful reefs and abundant sea life. It's also a perfect place to learn to surf. Postcard perfect beaches such as Hapuna Beach and Kua Bay are to the north and Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park and Captain Cooks monument lie to the south. Since Banyan Tree is located about halfway up the coast you can drive to either end of the island in about 30 minutes. When you're done just park in your designated parking stall and take the elevator steps away to your retreat!
This is an ocean lover's dream, we hope you visit soon!

Remodeled kitchen, Full size washer/dryer, Free Wifi, beach chairs/boogie boards.

Easy walk from the car to front door - NO STAIRS to hassle with. Security keyed elevator for your convenience and safety. What more can you ask for.

2nd floor offers a wonderful ocean breeze + newly installed Solar blinds keeps the condo cooler during the summer months.

Best location, off Alii drive.
Convenience store across the street for extra ice/spirits/newspaper, etc.

The A/C unit is 36000 BTU (cools 1500 sq ft/condo is 1100 sq ft) it sits in the living room/master bedroom, the back bedroom door needs to be left open for A/C to flow into.

Lovely stay in Kona waking up to surfers and dolphins

We had a wonderful stay at this oceanfront condo. I really appreciated that the kitchen had some basic cooking essentials like salt/pepper, oil, etc. and that we were able to borrow snorkeling gear and a couple of beach chairs when visiting the beach. The description of the condo is accurate. The condo is clean and has a perfect view to watch the sunset. Communication with Dawn was easy, as was the check-in and check-out process. I would happily stay here the next time we visit the Big Island. Mahalo!

Whales, surfers, incredible sunsets and the beautiful roar of of the ocean.

We loved our two-month stay at Dawn and Ian's Banyon Tree condo. Dawn and Ian were perfect hosts and responsive to all of our needs, including Dawn taking our young guest, who stayed for a week, out for two runs and lunch!! The unit was nicely decorated and generously stocked with all the necessities and more. We slept really well on the comfortable bed, listening to the beautiful sounds of the ocean as it lulled us to sleep. We hope to return and stay there again.

The ocean front location of this property is excellent!!!! The best!!!! The pool was never crowded and the water was warm. The beds were good and the main bathroom was larger than some we have rented. There were not any bugs or issues we felt were deal breakers.

Wonderful property!

We spent four nights, zero issues! We loved that we were right on the ocean. We left the sliders open all nights for some great breezes and wonderful ocean wave sounds.the little beach right next to the condos was perfect for us. A short drive had us in to the town area. I’d definitely stay here again. Fantastic sunsets and evenings on the balcony.

The pictures really don’t lie-absolutely perfect view of the water. Condo is charming and has everything you need to step into a relaxing vacation. We loved just hanging out here, but it’s also a good location for exploring the island. Owners are known by the locals and highly regarded. Nice they know their place.

About the host

We live in Boulder Colorado- outdoor living is what we are all about. We bought Banyan Tree to surf right from the property plus watch other surfers and the whales right from our deck. We are so happy we can share our beautiful place with you.

Why they chose this property

Smaller complex only 20 units makes the pool and hot tub feel private- everything is easy assessible. Pool and Hot tub hours 9am-10pm

What makes this property unique

Palm trees plus the surfers right outside your double oceanfront deck. Also the large veranda which is just to the left of the unit.
