With 1,166 square feet of living space, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom retreat comfortably accommodates up to four guests, making it an ideal choice for families or couples seeking a peaceful escape.

Beach gear: this unit comes equipped with beach chairs, towels, umbrella, and a small cooler for guests use. It may or may not have some snorkel gear that was left by previous guests. We do not provide snorkel gear. Ill-fitting snorkel gear takes all the fun out of snorkeling, so it is best to rent your equipment while you are here.

Oceanfront property disclaimer: We're thrilled to share that this stunning oceanfront unit offers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the sparkling ocean and the beautiful reef below. During the Hawaiian winter, you might notice vibrant ocean swells and refreshing winds that truly showcase the island's lively spirit. These natural elements can create a delightful saltwater mist on the glass, which may slightly alter your view but adds to the charm of the experience. As you relax on the lanai, the high swells, strong winds, and occasional rain can bring a splash of adventure to your stay! We encourage you to embrace these wonderful aspects of island life when making your booking.

Located just moments away from local attractions, guests can explore nearby marinas, museums, and beautiful waterfalls. For those seeking adventure, activities like whale watching, paddle boating, and eco-tourism are easily accessible.

Don't miss the opportunity to experience the beauty and tranquility of Banyan Tree 203. Book your stay today and create unforgettable memories in this Hawaiian paradise!

Banyan Tree is a smoke-free property. Smoking is allowed at the street, off property.

I just needed a place to stay while working for a few weeks. The place was clean and functional for the most part. The elevator was out of order for a few days on 2 separate occasions during my stay which caused some inconvenience because the stairwell requires a key for entry, of which, there is only 1. I had a coworker staying with me who worked a different shift. We had to continuously coordinate to ensure access to the building during those days. Other than that, there are no complaints. The view is great. The location is great. The beds are comfortable enough. The place is clean. Everything functioned well in the condo. I'm not sure what more you would ask for.

Our room overlooked the ocean. Fantastic views. Listing photos were 100% accurate. Loved watching the surfers from early morning till sunset from the lanai. Gorgeous sunsets! Hearing the waves crashing against the rocks was exactly what we wanted. The condo kitchen was very well equipped. Comfortable beds. Excellent location - grocery stores, restaurants & shopping nearby. The pool & hot tub were clean & also on the ocean - great views. Having a gas bbq by the pool area was perfect. No complaints. For us, a perfect Hawaiian getaway.

We stayed 3 nights. Our experience was a huge disappointment in the unit. The unit is moldy, mildewy, dirty and we had only 1 working shower for 2 of the 3 nights. The furniture is covered in vinyl and sagging. The washer worked but the dryer did not do a satisfactory job. The view was gorgeous as long as you were standing on the balcony. The windows are old and fogged. The linens are old and thin. The towels are frayed. The kitchen was relatively new and the refrigerator was clean. The bathrooms were extremely dirty.

No extra trash bags. Curtains do not cover windows completely, letting in a lot of light. Sliding main suite door had a defective panel. Sliding laundry machine door was broken upon arrival but then replaired. No lower level staircase key available in case elevator malfunctions. Charming place with great location.

We could've used some more paper products like at least one extra paper towel roll and more than one extra toilet paper roll, and more dishwasher detergent. We didn't find any beach towels and bath towels were limited. Otherwise I get not wasting a lot of soap etc. parking and check out was easy. We loved sitting on lanai and watching surfers. The cleaning smell was too strong on arrival.

We had 2 couples for our week long stay and we all had a great time! We especially loved the mornings on the lanai and watching surfers every morning and evening. There’s a little tiny beach right next door which took us a 4 days to discover. Wish we had found it sooner as it has nice shade trees and a beautiful view as well, and the lanai can get pretty hot in the afternoon sun. The condo is older, with corrosion from the salt air, but is clean. The ocean waves crash against the barrier wall in the mornings so it’s difficult to keep the big windows clean from the salty ocean spray, but you can’t beat that view! Both king beds were comfortable, which is my top priority. The condo had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again

Overall we really enjoyed our stay here. The location was great with access to shopping, restaurants and various beaches. The condo itself was pretty basic but it had everything we needed. The only downside for our group was that it's not a very kid friendly place and we had several kids in our group. They were excited to play in the pool but the rules about noise and activities are really strict. For that reason only, we probably wouldn't come back to this place unless it was only adults on the trip.

The property is just as described, right on the ocean! It was fun watching the surfers right out the window. The 3 separate A/C units were great to have although the LED lights from the panels were a bit annoying at night. The unit is bright and airy, clean and comfortable. We personally loved having no carpet anywhere in the condo, just nice tile and LPV flooring. Kitchen was well stocked, and bathrooms had plenty of towels. The condo actually seemed bigger than the photos showed. The beds were comfortable and we really liked all the ceiling fans which kept the A/C distributed nicely. Condo is easy access right from the elevator, and garbage chute is conveniently located right outside the front door. We would absolutely stay here again!

We absolutely loved this unit! The king size beds are SUPER comfortable in both bedrooms! The location is perfect! The living room furniture is dated but very cozy - the tv was perfect for all of our streaming needs. There are 3 split AC units and ceiling fans in every room! We were never hot. They provided some beach/water items like chairs, a cooler and an umbrella, which were nice perks! They have a few beach towels but they are thread bare and not absorbent at all. The kitchen is stocked pretty well - It would be nice if they would add BBQ tools, a muffin pan, and some sharp knives, but I’m kind of picky about kitchens since we cook so much. The washer and dryer are small and it takes a long time for clothes to dry but was thankful to have it. We would definitely stay in this unit again and again simply for the comfy beds and perfect AC. The complex was built in the 70’s - we were amazed at how well maintained this entire property is. The covered parking is well lit, the pool was refreshing , the hot tub was big and perfect for watching the sunset, the 2 grills worked perfectly, and the community lanai was a great place to play games. The complex is quiet too.

This condo is my dream condo!! What else can you ask for? It's very close to the water and the place has everything you can ask for! King bed is super comfy. We did nit want to leave. It is very spacious. It even has beach chairs and umbrella and cooler for your outings. I will want to stay here again. In fact I have recommended it to my friends . In the mornings I watch the surfers in front . You can grill your food downstairs and they have a heated pool. This unit is 10/10. Seriously . This is the condo to stay in Kona

The location was wonderful and we enjoyed being right on the ocean. The unit was well equipped with all kitchen needs and the management was very quick to replace a beach chair that was missing. Comfy beds and furniture too. We hope to stay here again!

The kitchen was well equipped which was so appreciated. The view of the ocean was fantastic. Tracy Leverone was very responsive to our requests on how to operate the washer/ dryer and she fixed the connections on the TV, etc., and later brought us a broom. Thank you Tracy, for your prompt replies and resolutions. We do feel it's important to convey to the owners that the bed in the master bedroom is collapsed on one side and the headboard rattles. The sofa cushions are also collapsed. The toilet in the master bath needs some help as the tank doesn't easily refill or flush properly. We were a little disappointed that the hot tub chemicals were out of whack for almost our entire visit and advised by the maintenance people not to use it. The pool solar system was not working so the pool was too cool to swim in. The living room windows were not washed on the outside. The upstairs landing area outside the elevator was clean and well-kept.
