Nice apartment in a good location, close to the pier, supermarkets, shops and restaurants. Condo complex well maintained and secure. Condo had all the amenities listed. Host was proactive and communication was excellent.
Our unit was very clean, well equipped, quiet and located steps away from many restaurants, shops and beaches.
Easy walking access to everywhere! Condo was well represented in listing and had everything we needed. Appreciated the corner work desk/chair, as I needed to work part-time during our stay. Great communication: We were made aware that the start knob on the dryer was broken ahead of our stay, but they provided a pair of plyers that enabled the dryer to be started, no problem. We would consider renting here again in the future.
Property was in good order upon arrival, Property manager communication was excellent, everything was smooth and the stay couldn't have been any more epic: centrally located, nice and quiet. Just what we needed. We are looking forward to our next trip and stay right here 😀👍
Overall very clean unit w/ nice location = quiet. Plus is fully equipped kitchen w/ all cookware / utensils. Living area is nice; TV connections a hassle. Bath is clean but toilet is ancient / stained - replace it ! Bed is NOT comfortable w/ ancient bedding. Boo! Replace ancient bed and bedding - Costco in Kailua ! Washer worked - Dryer did not. 4 days for temp fix. BBQ close to pool was great for grilling local fresh fish. Parking was close and convenient. Price reasonable compared to glitz hotels. Some minor upgrades will greatly help this property. Thanks.
We rented this "ocean view" condo through VRBO for our Big Island stay. There is minimal/no ocean view, only a "peek" of ocean occasionally, so technically correct. Good location near all the Kailua-Kona attractions, walkable to stores/restaurants/Farmers Market/Kailua Pier, etc. Reserved parking with many speed bumps! No check-in info through the VRBO app, but had been sent by direct e-mail from management company and went to spam, so had to request. I guess it would be helpful to use the app that is being used, maybe? Condo is older, worn but functional and reasonably comfortable. Bedroom doesn't get much from the split-unit A/C, even with the help of fans, so a portable A/C might be helpful. Bathroom was functional but stained toilet seat and tub; a small amount of work would turn this first impression "turn off" around! Thoughtful touches such as power strips in the bedroom and desk area. Bed was comfortable for both of us (a real feat!). Kitchen well-supplied with dishes and equipment. A non-functioning toaster oven, so no toaster for the first few days while we waited for a replacement; missed, as we do a lot of toast for breakfast and sandwiches. The dryer was in the process of being fixed but was unusable past one use early in our stay and no real fix or compensation for our wet laundry was offered (right before we left.). Help from prop. man. hampered by illness---get it---but no backup?
This condo is centrally located and is close to everything you might want. The biggest downside of this place is, the only air conditioning is a small split unit in the living room. There is a long hallway to the bedroom and bathroom. Even with 2 fans blowing down the hallway, the bedroom and bathroom are very hot. The knob on the dryer was broken off as well. The bathroom is very tired and the tub is permanently stained. I was going to just sleep on the pullout sofa, but there was a massive brown stain on the mattress. With some updates and some cool air in the bedroom, this could be an awesome place.
I absolutely loved this apartment! It was quiet, clean, and comfortable - everything I needed for my scuba diving vacation.
Good condition condo, full bathroom and kitchen, decorated nicely, no ac in bedroom, mostly quiet.
The property was as advertised. A convenient location from which to explore the Big Island.
Here is good location to go restaurants Ali drive or other places by car. Simple facilities are easy to stay, we will back here again. One problem is US television it’s has a lot of channel’s difficult to select.
It was a great little condo, suited my needs perfectly. Quick walk to downtown.
