Location was great, view off the balcony is great.I think it was the first time we’ve ever had to go purchase our own soap and shampoo has none was provided in the bathrooms. Not a big deal but interesting to know. Exterior of the building is in less than great condition and it looked like nobody cleaned the elevator in years parking the rental car was it very tight I was parking lot was very small, but then Land is expensive in Hawaii. Overall, I’d rate the condo four stars

This place is large, comfortable, clean, well equipped, but lanai is jaw droppingly good! Overall would not think twice about staying again, and again, on and on. Thank you

Relaxed stay in a well equipped 2 bedroom condo, on large room one smaller. The larger room had an en-suite bathroom with a walkin shower. The smaller bedroom had a tub/shower , great for children but not as easy for those of us in the 70's, a small square bath at was provided but a longer no skid nominally bathtub mat would be better. The condo was stocked with bath towels and beach towels and bath items that nearly lasted a week. The kitchen was well equipped and clean and well organized. A pizza pan would have been helpful. There were helpful guides and naturalists guides for reference.. the lanai had a beach locker with beach chairs and grill items. The washer/dryer was well stocked and easy to use, however it moves on place and is hard to reach the top dryer controls. Be sure to bring a tall family member with you! The 3rd floor was reached by an elevator which was essential to moving in and out and with groceries. The pool is a small dunking or lap pool. The area sandy beaches must be researched and walked or car transport to. The condo oceanfront is beautifully framed with coconut trees, frames subsets and full moons but is lava rocks in both directions. If you wish to walk a long sandy beach, you need to research Big Island beaches. If you like to watch for marine life and great sunsets and are a senior citizen ( not in need of a long sandy beach) this is a stunning, comfortable condo.Last,the parking space is fine for a full car but a tight squeeze for a van/suv.

The unit was great. The highlight was the terrace. the area lacked food options-restaurant or groceries.

This condo exceeded our expectations -- it was nicer than conveyed in photos, updated, clean, property management was responsive and had everything we needed for our vacation plus extras. Really enjoyed having the fans and air conditioning and the lanai. Location was also great with some amenities in walking distance and a short drive to the main part of Ali'i Drive. We had a relaxing vacation and would definitely stay here again.

This wonderful, well-furnished, unit and its expansive patio will captivate you with the sights and sounds of surfers, sunsets, and ocean waves. I loved falling asleep each night to the echo of the pounding surf. The only negatives were the opening and closing instructions. It took a while to figure out the living room TV, fan and lighting scheme. Even the property management staffer had a difficult time sorting it out when she came to assist. All that aside, I would definitely return.

The condo was really spacious and very clean. New appliances, Kitchen had everything that we needed. Gorgeous balcony with reclining chairs that you could listen to the ocean. We ate every meal on the balcony – the view was amazing!

The unit was very spacious and clean. The lanai was amazing and you can hear the ocean all night. They even supplied beach gear and towels. Easy parking! We’d for sure book again given the opportunity! Thanks you for sharing your unit with us.

We loved the condo, amenities and it worked great for our family of 4. Condo was very clean, well maintained and updated and lots of small extras for use in our stay. If or when we come back to Big Island we'll check here first to see if its available. Ocean right below the deck. Lots of room to spread out.

Only 15 units so nice and quiet. Pool almost all to ourselves. Shopping only 5 minutes by car. Parking a bit tight but manageable. Spacious unit, well equipped. Garbage disposal not working.

Great location, very clean and comfortable. Looks just like the pictures. Comfortable lanai furniture, spent a ton of time out there. Many amenities, chairs, snorkels, umbrella, boogie boards. Will be back!

The condo was very convenient to local shops and restaurants. Beautiful view from the lanai. We saw whales every day we were there. Beds were comfortable, peaceful and very quiet, just heard the waves hitting the shore. Very nice we had access to snorkeling equipment, water socks, bogey boards and pool noodles. The pool was very nice and clean. We had a great time. One of the best stays we had!

This condo is even nicer than the pictures show. It is spacious, very well located, and has an amazing ocean view. There was not a time that we went out there that we didn't see whales (this is peak season). It really exceeded expectations and I would highly recommend it.
