My Hawaii Oceanfront 2 Bedroom Vacation Rental - Kona

Beautiful setting and wonderful amenities.

This was our second time staying at this location and it was every bit as great as the first! As everyone else says, the views are spectacular and we found the place to be clean and very nice. Location also makes it a very manageable walk into town. We look forward to staying here again when we visit Kona.

Photos and description do not match reality. It’s worn & tattered. So disappointing at 3k/week.Pros:-Great location-2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, laundry, 2 lanais-King in master, 2 twins in other-Full kitchen-Big TVs in master & downstairs-A/C in living room, master & 2nd room (not central A/C)-Wifi-Beach gearCons:-Not clean-Dead bugs in cabinets, lamps, windows, A/C units & floor-Pans, tools, etc. are decades old and should be trashed (most pans are so damaged they are unusable–peeling nonstick coating)-Cracked/chipped plates, bowls, glasses-Rusted out blender -Cracked pitchers-Lots of lids, no containers-Dirty kitchen chairs-Worn/torn/stained sheets & towels-Pillows worn/flat, some need covers-Torn up lanai furniture cushions-Cracked master tub -2nd bath showerhead doesn't work well-No hooks, shelves, or drawers in upstairs bathrooms-Host provides one roll of toilet paper per bathroom (He told us it wasn't a hotel & to buy our own--but did send some the next day.)-Living room slider door mostly stuck shutOne morning the kitchen table was covered with termite wings and bug parts. We noticed more everywhere. Never saw live termites, but they must be somewhere.We didn’t feel welcome, no hospitality when we reached out, and no aloha spirit.The saddest part is this place could be nice with a little care, a professional housecleaning (and termite inspection), replacing some cushions and most kitchen items, and some kind hospitality.

A great place to stay in Kailuna-Kona. The apartment is big and the view is simply breathtaking. Good location, easy to check in and perfect with a parking spot just outside

BEWARE: This property has a termite infestation. The owner casually mentioned that there are “occasionally insects,” but I doubt anyone would expect that to include termites. When we arrived, the small room with two twin beds was covered in termites—even on the bedcovers. We contacted the owner to complain, and he sent a cleaning lady who simply vacuumed them up and expected us to sleep in those same beds. Even the owner couldn't he would stay in that condition himself. For context, we booked the condo during the third week of May.

Great stay! Loved the constant sounds of the waves! There were more stairs than we thought. We had our elderly friend with us and the stairs to the apartment was unexpected. She had a hard time with them but she was able to do it. There were a ton of little ants on the counters even though we kept everything in ziplock bags. Not an issue at all though. We'd definitely go back!

The property was perfect for our trip. Right on the water. Sleep to the sound of waves. Close enough to walk to town. It is a walk but totally doable and saves on parking. Great coffee shop a 5 minute walk. Totally would recommend to anyone.

The property was in an excellent location, clean, spacious and well stocked with beach equipment. The sunset views were spectacular. The host was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Overall, a great place to call home when in Kona.

We loved spending time on the lanai in the morning and in the evening. The house itself met our needs and was equipped with snorkeling and beach equipment. The location was very convenient but parking was a bit tight.Cconvenient but parking was a bit

Loved everything about staying here, what you see online is what you get

Very nice. Dryer didn’t work but due to being there over Christmas they couldn’t get it fixed. Had someone there on the 26th.

What a great location with the downtown area a short walk away but but the highlight is you are able to hear and watch the waves crash onto the rocks at the base of the balconies (spectacular sunsets). Mornings, with your home brewed Kona coffee in your private beachfront shaded lani. All this with convenient parking! The inside was clean and appreciated having the washer/Dryer and detergent. Another big plus was the ample supply of towels (both beach and bathroom). Overall, we loved our stay here!

The views of the water from this house are amazing! We had a dolphin show one morning, right off the lanai! The location is terrific, very close to town. Highly recommend.

The unit has incredible views! Parking is a little tight, but sufficient. Plenty of room for a family. More than enough for my wife and I. I would definitely recommend!

We have stayed here multiple times and love it. Every trip is a little different and this one we were able to watch pre-Ironman events. First was a 5k run on Ali'i Dr from our front lanai, and the next day a swim race from our back lanais. As a bonus, continually saw lots of fish (yellow tangs, blue lined surgeon fish, others) in the surf and on multiple days saw spinner dolphins! This place is amazing. It is well represent in its on-line description, so no surprise with all the stairs and no elevator for my 82 year old parents. The host was very prompt and responsive to any communications we had. He is very nice to work with. We love this place and, my parents health willing, look forward to a return visit next year.

The view from the lanai was amazing! Great location! Easy walk to restaurants and beach. Worked well for our family of 4. Stocked with everything we needed. Including coolers and items to bring to the beach.

This was a good place to stay for a short visit. The condo has some bug issues and could use some updates but has amazing views and is a good value. The owner was very helpful and responsive to our concerns.

Everything worked out well. Loved listening to the waves. We think we've actually stayed there before some 20 years ago. We're returning again in October and would have stayed again but it's taken. Thanks

This little 2 BR/2.5BA was perfect for our week long stay. It’s a quiet area and you can’t hear much from the street other than a few vehicles that are unnecessarily loud. It has all of the basic essentials that you’ll need as far as toiletries and kitchen appliances and utensils. It’s a mile walk to an area with restaurants and gift shops (either bring one or purchase a bag with handles, they give out paper sacks). The area restaurants were great. You can sit on either balcony and watch the sunset. There are plenty of fish and black crabs to watch in the water. You can leave just the screen door closed at night to hear the waves crashing in. There are a couple of small beaches close by and 2 others south within a couple of miles. The neighbor is really friendly and helpful if you have any questions. Overall, it was a perfect place to rest our heads at the end of each day.

Awesome views, plenty of amenities, comfortable furnishings

Everything was perfect for our family of three. Beautiful view off the balconies. Waves crashing on the black rocks. The place is well kept and all amenities provided. Especially convenient to have the available coolers, beach chairs, umbrella and boogie board. Would highly recommend.

No better place at sunset than this deck.

We had a wonderful stay. This unit was clean and right next to the water. We all enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the waves. We were able to walk down to all the restaurants easily as well.

Super location. Parking is tight but we had an oversized SUV. Perfect spot for us!!

I booked this property for our week's stay and did not regret it! It was so nice to have space vs a 1 bedroom hotel for an entire week. I LOVED the view, which is why I booked it. I wanted an unobstructed view of the ocean, which I got! We even got to see whales off our balcony! I would stay here again!

fantastic location in Kona. Close to all the touristy things one would like to do.Right on the ocean. We were able to see whales from the deck. Two decks, which is where we spent most of our time Close to a lot of good restaraunts. Would stay here again.

Stunning location, we had a great time. easy access to restaurants and groceries.

Pros -Loved the view and sounds of the ocean from the balconies. This is the greatest asset of this property! We spent many hours sitting there and loved every minute! -Great location close to downtown attractions, shopping, restaurants. -Wonderful master bedroom mattress. -Appreciated the beach chairs, umbrellas, etc in the closet. (Although one umbrella was broken beyond usefulness-FYI) -Deposit promptly returned. Cons -The unit seems dated. Windows, building exterior, furniture, and appliances a bit worn and tired looking. -It may be normal for the area, but the insect problem made it uncomfortable for my family. I will say that the manager was responsive in getting the house treated within 24 hours. -Air Conditioning upstairs is inadequate. It was hot and humid during our stay (even in the evenings), and the AC upstairs did not keep up. The second bedroom was miserably hot. -The shared parking area for the two rentals is very small. It might help to have a stripe painted on the ground so the guests know how far over to park. A couple of times, the other person parked so far to the center, we could hardly park and still get out of our minivan. Do not rent a large SUV and expect to park on site.
