About this property

Kona Reef A22 - Direct Ocean Front Condo - Private Lana - Next to Honl's Beach.

Welcome to our beautifully decorated ocean front condo in paradise - Kona Reef A-22.

Our condo is our home away from home, so we respectfully request a maximum of 2 adult guests and no children under 18.

Whether this is your first trip to Kailua-Kona or you are a frequent visitor to the island, our condo at Kona Reef Resort will definitely be your favorite place to stay.

Our condo is only 23 feet from the water and the 3rd floor views from the lanai are absolutely mesmerizing. You will find yourself drawn to the views from the lanai from dawn till dusk, and with the sounds of the surf, warm tropical breezes and the views of the ocean, you will soon find a soothing sense of calm begin to take over.

Our private lanai hosts a bar height table and chairs, plus 2 swivel chairs with ottomans and a side table. Most mornings while sitting on the lanai and drinking a steamy mug of incredible Kona coffee, a few of the local surfers will be out in front of the condo catching the morning waves, and by the time the sun comes over the volcano, more often than not a pod of spinner dolphins will pass through on their early morning trek.

Early on Wednesdays and Saturdays mornings, cruise ships will pass directly in front of the condo and dock in Kaulua- Kona for the day and then sail off to Lahaina, Maui as the sun begins to set. The humpback whales (na kohola) visit Hawaii every year from November until early May and some have even been spotted from the lanai.

Once your day begins to wind down, you will find yourself anxiously waiting for the stunning sunsets that Hawaii is famous for.

Please take a look at our website for additional photos and information on the condo and surrounding areas. Click on the owner info tab and scroll to the bottom of the page.

If this condo is not available, please take a look at our other condo Kona Reef D24 which is also a 3rd floor ocean front condo.

Amazing View Condo
Most amazing sunset and ocean activity views! We saw whales, dolphins, swimmers, surfers, outriggers turtles and birds right from the deck! Wonderfully appointed and amenities. Really enjoyed the filtered water spigot in the kitchen! Communication from owners was thorough and timely and clear. Definitely worth it!

Boogie Boarder Showtime
This condo checked all of the boxes for a vacation rental. The lanai is virtually on top of the waves breaking onto the shore. The surf was up so local surfers and boogie boarders were out in force and put on a show! As far as amenities, this rental had everything you could ask for and then some. We've never experienced a VRBO that had as many creature comforts as this one. Tons of silverware, cutlery, and dinnerware plus all the little things like first aid items and binoculars. There were plenty of restaurants a short walk away. The Safeway was a five-minute drive for food items. We've already booked another stay for next spring. Thank you KaCee and Kurt for a great vacation.

EXCELLENT!
Terrific location. Only a few easy walking blocks to downtown Kona. And a few nice restaurant options only 2 blocks away right on the ocean. The condo was clean and very functional. View from condo was tremendous. Sunsets every night, right in front of you from private Lanai. Waves crashing. Couldn't be any more spectacular. Will not be disappointed.

Location and View Are Amazing
First off cxl your dinner reservations at sunset. You won’t need them…..just have dinner on this amazing lanai at Sunset ….no restaurant can beat the view. Condo is in great location on Ali’i street, walkable to all restaurants, bars and shopping. Unit is well appointed and cozy. The sounds of the waves were so soothing they put us to sleep most nights. Host was responsive and helpful….checking in was a breeze. Close drive to nice beaches and airport. Definitely a do-over!

Kona Vacation
This is a great property right on the water. It is nicely updated, clean and the bed was really comfortable. The complex is kept clean and there is plenty of parking. One criticism would be about the couch and chair. They are not very comfortable and need to be updated. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing views! Amazing condo!
The hosts were so friendly and helpful from day one! The condo was absolutely wonderful. We appreciate a place where you can be on vacation but still be able to cook and make coffee and have a leisurely start to your day. The condo had everything we needed. Beach chairs, mats, towels, kitchen essentials and most importantly, stunning views and a beach right next door! It was magical. We will be back and hope we can still book this condo… hopefully the word won’t get out too much 😃

Relax and enjoy watching the ocean
We had a wonderful 5 days enjoying the condo and surrounding areas. The condo was exceptionally clean and very well equipped and felt like a home rather than just a place to stay. The large bed was very comfortable. We spent hours sitting on the lanai watching the waves and looking for the whales. It was lovely in the evening as the area in front of the lanai is lit so you can still watch the waves while enjoying a drink and dinner.

Wonderful Kona experience
The condo exceeded our expectations-lovely island decor and super clean. It is well-equipped and stocked with daily housekeeping necessities. The lanai is spectacular-we spent many hours gazing at the waves (huge!!) and surfers-no need to go to the beach to watch the sunset-we could see it while sitting at the hightop or in the comfy chairs. Nice galley kitchen. The bedroom (comfy bed) is located on the opposite side of the condo so it is quiet for sleeping and has great closet and dresser space for 2. There is ample parking and location is convenient to great restaurants and shopping. The hosts were very responsive, kind and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful unit
We spent 35 glorious days in this unit. We love the Kona Reef and this is a really great unit. It is well maintained and well stocked. We loved watching the surfers from the lanai. We also loved the sound of the crashing waves. The unit is well located within the complex. We find that the inner courtyard helps keep the temperature down in the bedroom. That, combined with the ceiling fan kept the bedroom cool. There was certainly no need to turn on the living room air conditioner during our stay. Our only complaint is that the whales were late this year, only turning up after we came home!

Great location and comfortable condo
We loved looking right out on the ocean and hearing the waves all night - it was warm inside, but comfortable with the breeze. The kitchen had some spices, vinegar, and rice left behind. We were fortunate that our friends staying in a different unit had some extra mayo, mustard and syrup left behind in their fridge to borrow! I would definitely book here again.

About the host

Hosted by KaCee & Kurt Nord

Host profile image
We are Kurt & KaCee from San Luis Obispo, California and have been coming to Hawaii every year, a few times a year, for over 15 years. Enjoying the combination of year round perfect weather and the Aloha spirit of Hawaii. We purchased this wonderful condo at Kona Reef Resort and welcome you to experience the Spirit of Aloha, hoping that you will continue to return and stay with us over the coming years.

Why they chose this property

Hawaii is a magical place. A place and a spirit that words can not describe. One must experience this feeling, called Aloha, to understand. Most people say they just 'feel' better, healthier, and more alive here in Paradise. We found the uncrowded beaches and small town atmosphere of Kona a relaxing family-style vacation destination to soak up the true Aloha. While the other Hawaiian islands all have their unique charm, The Big Island has spoken to us and we can now call it our second home.

What makes this property unique

Awesome Ocean Front Lanai Views!
Easy walking distance to historic Kailua Village along the quiet side street (Kahakai road) past the Royal Kona Resort, Don the Beachcomber and Huggo’s Restaurant, you'll find yourself strolling down Alii drive a sea wall apart from the crystal clear Pacific Ocean arriving in historic Kailua Village. Right next door, only a few steps away from the condo is sandy Honl's Beach a great spot for sunning, shade trees for napping and a favorite spot to watch local surfers and boogie boarders.
