Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in this apartment for 10 days and had an excellent experience. The location is outstanding—close to everything locally and conveniently equidistant from all the major attractions. The view from the apartment is a big plus.The apartment was spotless and very well stocked. It included beach chairs, an umbrella, and snorkeling gear, so we didn’t need to rent anything.The space is ideal for two people. It’s a corner, top-floor unit with great ventilation, and we never felt the need to use the AC.Knutson & Associates Property Management was excellent to work with. They were very responsive, followed up as soon as we landed, and answered all our questions promptly.We would definitely stay here again.

GREAT: this property has been recently renovated, so the interior is fresh and clean with updates. The balcony provides a nice overlook to the ocean (over a beautiful church). Had beach chairs, towels, and a cooler. Being able to park here and walk down to the main strip area was a big bonus. Easy key retrieval once we figured out the initial lockbox situation. Not so good: We didn’t get the impression that those who lived in the complex really like “guests.” Also the sheets are pilling badly and the (colored) towels need a refresh as several had rips or were discolored. If you are going to do laundry, be prepared to have to put 10 minimum to use in the app. Not a bad price for the convenience of onsite laundry, but we only needed to do 1 load. The overall complex property and grounds need serious cleaning (elevator, laundry area, walk ways, etc.).

Top floor of a 7 story condo in Kona. Great breezes coming from the ocean and blowing right through. End unit so only one shared wall. Very quiet neighbors. Walkable to the ocean and downtown Kona. Really liked it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our unit was all we hoped for! A fabulous view from the patio, impeccably clean and well appointed. It was also a very short walk to a number of fun and tasty restaurants. The provided floor fans made the lack of AC a non-issue and we remained comfy at all times. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Our host always responded back to us quickly with answers to questions we asked during our stay.

The Unit is situated within the Kona restaurant area, with all tastes catered for. I would happily recommend Knutsons and I would also stay there again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon entering the condo we were awed by the spectacular ocean view from our top floor balcony. The management's communication were very helpful on how to access our unit. The living space was very clean and well appointed, especially the kitchen that met all our needs. Love the sunlit energy of this space. The bed was quite comfortable. The bathroom had a removable shower wand that I appreciated. Also felt safe with the locked elevator system. There was some street noise but this is to be expected in a popular town. Beautiful balcony to have breakfast and enjoy sunset. Also, an easy walk down the hill to town and beach areas. We used both the snorkeling equipment and beach chairs that were provided. The information on locking the door and potential of being locked out was somewhat confusing. The glass corners on the the nightstands need some type type of beeline on protection to avoid injury. Otherwise we were extremely satisfied with our stay in your unit and are very likely to reccomend and come back for another stay. Thank you and Mahalo.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay in Unit 701 at Kailua Village. It was walking distance to many great shops and restaurants, close to the highway to get to other destinations, and close to the water with a beautiful view. The unit was clean and spacious for two people. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had everything you would need if you wanted to prepare meals instead of going out. Only residents with a key could access the elevator or stairs, which was a great feature for making us feel safe. We would definitely stay here again.

Great spot in the heart of downtown Kona with a great ocean view from the patio and short walk to Huggo’s and other restaurants/shops. We very much appreciated the fans since there is no air conditioning — not a deal breaker for us but something to consider in the hotter seasons. The place had beach gear also (towels, nice chairs, good umbrella) which was really nice. Overall really enjoyed our stay and we hope to return sometime soon!

I was a little concerned that there was no AC but with the ocean breeze and ceiling fans there was absolutely no need for it. Loved the view on the balcony and a short walk to lots of restaurants. Very relaxing and comfortable stay.

Amazing location to downtown and beach! Hot without AC, but doable with fans and breeze. Clean property and responsive host. Giving a 5 star on the app, but probably would say 4.6 for uncomfortable couch and bed, but we would recommend and we will stay again!
