Amazing oceanfront condo with hot tub, pool, W/D, & grill - gorgeous ocean view

Great location, quiet, comfortable, amazing ocean front views, easy stroll to Kona town. Will definitely stay again.

Loved the spot, amenities plentiful, easy parking and or walking to town, the views and sunsets were to die for!

Very nice view

This unit is sublimely located. The view is everything one wants when planning a HI trip. Pool in complex is nice, with an adjacent hot tub and grill area. It is located a mile or so out of downtown Kona, so near to but not stuck in the middle of things. It is nice to have full kitchen and bathroom is decent. A couple or parents with 1-2 kids would have a fabulous time using this as a home base for exploring the big island.Some of my favorite memories of my whole trip at sitting on the lanai in the morning watching boats,outriggers, swimmers, etc go by in the distance. One day I even saw a a group of dolphins. Sunsets are magical too.

View and shower were amazing. TVs should not need pages in a binder to figure out. Also, what good are instructions in a binder for getting into the apartment if you can't get into the apartment and the company's preferred texting communication is worthless? Thank goodness for the phone representative AND the property manager. Place only 1 keypad or lockbox on door and make sure they work. Also, dust the closet and leave room for hanging. Clean your floor fans, dust TV areas and closet floor. The beds were amazingly UNCOMFORTABLE! But the view and shower helped distract the inconveniences with being locked out and dust.

We stayed 9 nights. Parking spots are narrow, but we managed. The condo was exactly as pictured and exceeded our expectations: clean, abundant linens, equipped with laundry and kitchen cleaning essentials. The pantry had some supplies; check in before going shopping. King bed was comfortable with additional bedding. AC units in bedroom and living room have their own thermostats and were quiet. Ceiling fans were helpful. Uninterrupted view of the ocean and sunset were breathtaking. Weird quirk: the front door lacks a door knob—awkward to open and close. We were glad we brought a bluetooth speaker to hook up to the TV so we could hear it.The Vacasa support was helpful when the pool key was not where the instructions said it would be, but they helped us find it fairly quickly. About Kona Reef and the immediate area around it are worth noting. The pool at Kona Reef was overall nice, though be careful about the slopes at the sides of the pool and especially on the seats in the jacuzzi. It is easy to slip and bonk your head on the side of the jacuzzi if you aren’t careful. BBQs are typically available. Also, next door is the foundation of what appears to be a dismantled condo complex that appears a bit sketchy. Kona Reef is also rather close to the shopping/bars/restaurants just up the road. Very convenient.For the price point, we were very happy with our experience and would highly recommend renting this condo. We would stay here again.

We had a wonderful time!!!

This condo sits right next to the ocean, and it’s lovely to sit on the lanai and have coffee or a meal and watch the waves and the sunrise—or look for whale spouts! We had trouble getting in because we were given the code for the door rather than for the lockbox attached to the screen. Had to call and ask for the lockbox code to lock up after our stay. But the people were helpful and easy to contact. The washing machine is very loud but it works well.

Great spot. Great location. Walking distance to everything. Also great location for runners. Beautiful view. Nice pool. Never had a problem finding loungers. Highly recommend.

We loved this place. The patio faces the ocean just feet away with a great view. Beaches and downtown are in walking distance. The condo has everything we needed. We would stay here again.

The property was as described and meet my expectations. The waterfront location was very nice, I enjoyed watching and listening to the ocean during my entire stay. I would stay here again. The combination for the lock provided was for the actual doorknob lock assembly.

Great location, lots of shops and restaurant around. Could use a little dusting, the headboard, and the curtain was so dusty.

As advertised. Ocean is only 25 yards from the ground floor porch. Though the unit is old it was very clean. Overhead light in living area pull chain was broken so no light. Location is great. I would stay again

Close to town

We loved our proximity to the ocean, but wish it was a bit safer to leave the sliders open at night so we could hear the ocean in the back bedroom better. A few homeless folks had a little too much access to the area just over our wall

Perfect location for sunset and water views as well as strolling into town for shopping and eateries. I hope to stay here again in future.

This condo was clean and the owner gave easy instructions to locate and how to check in. Loved the view from the patio. We watched the sun go down from there every evening. Would definitely stay here again.

Third visit to Kona and the Kona Reef property. By far this was our favorite unit. Super clean, thoughtful layout and ample supplies. Ground floor a super plus! Parking is easy, close walk to town. Appreciate the communication with Vacasa management on check-in process and checking in on how things are going. Thank you for everything We will return!

Great views from this nicely appointed condo. Quiet and safe area.

Just as described.

Older property but super location and well maintained. Great access to nearby beach and terrific views. Helpful in summer to be on the first floor in Hawaii in units without AC. Great place to stay.

We’ve stayed at Kona Reef before, but a different unit. Well stocked with all the main things you’d need. Beach towels, chairs w/umbrellas for the beach, boogie boards, pool noodles. Local guidebooks. Easy walk to the Kona bars and restaurants. My second stay overall with Vacasa. Both places have been done really well. Nothing sketchy or iffy about it. Only “negative” is there are no lounge chairs where you can kick back and take a nap. It’s really either the couch or the bed. The chair on the lanai have pull out foot rests, but you can’t lean your head back and nap to the sounds of the ocean. It is really a missed opportunity. Not downrating it, as it kind of seemed that way from the pictures and description. But swap out the rocker for a lounge chair and that probably nails it.

This is a true oceanfront property and the lanai is just steps away from the water. The place is clean and well kept. Within walking distance to everything in Kona, this makes things super convenient and hassle free.

I honestly cannot say enough about my stay at this property. The condo itself was very nice and clean and the property owner was very attentive and communicated everything well. Above all else though is the location as you really couldn’t ask for a better location with a perfect view of the sunset every night. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and I already cannot wait to come back!

This unit has such a great view and is walking distance to many restaurants and bars. The pool area is great and we found parking easy.

We absolutely loved being ON the water. We could hear the waves throughout the day and night. It was also walking distance to Kailua-Kona and all that it has to offer. Wonderful place to stay!

The view from the lanai is beautiful. Listening to the ocean waves was calming. The location was near food and shops.

Our second stay at Kona reef was great again! We loved the views and peaceful atmosphere. The unit is well stocked and comfortable with cozy bedding and exceptional cleanliness. An easy walk into the village. An excellent choice for those who just want to relax and enjoy the natural beauty.

Wonderful condo on the ocean. You fall asleep listening to the waves. Condo has everything you need: comfy beds, full kitchen, beautiful lanai to sit on. Did we mention the million dollar view? We saw whales a bunch of times in the distance. Great home base. Must do's: Volcanoes National Park; night snorkel with Manta Rays; Hawaii Botanical Gardens; Black Sand Beach. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We liked the location and the Kona Reef property. Relaxing, conveniently located in walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Beautiful ocean views. The bed in the unit was substandard…desperately in need of a mattress upgrade. Both tvs in the unit were small and very cheap with sound so poor it was difficult to hear clearly. We used our laptop when we wanted to watch news or a movie. These issues did not spoil our vacation but we did have higher expectations for the amount we paid.

Excellent
