You can’t ask for anything more than a view from the living room and lanai of the pool and ocean beyond, with the sound of crashing waves and beautiful bird chirping! The location is perfection for everything we wanted to do: walk to restaurants, do morning yoga just to the left of the property, short distance to snorkeling, etc. It was a great homebase! Super clean and we had everything we needed. Rheee was construction going on, which we were made aware of but it wasn’t bad except for one day. Many thanks to our host who ensured all was well. We hope it’s available again when we come back to BI.
Kal is an amazing host with a very well appointed condo. He communicates very well and helps you feel tight at home. The condo has EVERYTHING you would need, except your clothes and swimsuit. We lived it so much, we booked it again already!!
Great apartment and view!
Great stay. Nice unit - good view
Delightful place to stay for our 1st visit to Kona. Everything was clean and worked fine, including kitchen appliances (we did cook a bit), AC units, overhead fans, & washer/dryer. Bed was very comfortable. Outstanding views from the large lanai, even in stormy weather. Below, the pool and hot tub area are well maintained and available until 10 pm. We walked into town often and a large Safeway is just 1 mile away. Highly recommend!
Great view and location within walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants
Yes, everything was easy and the place was clean and comfortable
The host, kal, was so helpful and informative. When I had a problem seeing my information he immediately identified the problem, on my end, and helped me. The condo itself is excellent. While we did not prepare meals, everything needed was available-and high end stuff. The unit was perfectly cleaned and we loved the bed and bedding.
Beautiful ocean view unit, walkable to the Village. Host was very responsive and helpful.
We really enjoyed our stay at Kona Reef condos. We slept like a rock the bed was so comfortable. Quiet neighborhood. Great view of the ocean & sunsets. We enjoyed the ability to save money by making breakfast at the condo and doing our laundry. The pool and area were kept up daily. Whenever we had a question Kal was quick to respond.
