A spectacular oceanfront setting awaits at this ground-level condo in Kailua-Kona, where it feels as though the waves are lapping up to your lanai. Take in incredible, 180-degree views of the ocean, windsurfers and boats below, and an unforgettable sunset each evening.

This peaceful condo enjoys a true oceanfront location, right in front of the surf break on the garden level of Kona Riviera Villa. Your front door opens directly to the oceanfront pool deck, where you can take refreshing dips in the afternoons, lounge in the sunshine, and barbecue on the gas grill. Leave your car in the free parking space and easily stroll to the farmers market across the street or into the heart of Kona town about a mile and a half up Ali'i Drive.

Greet each morning outside on the lanai, sipping a mug of Kona coffee, taking in the ocean breeze, and spotting turtles and schools of yellow tang in the waves below. There's also a table and chairs outside for alfresco breakfasts and memorable sunset dinners.

Floor-to-ceiling windows and a mirrored living room wall fill the condo with sunlight. The furnishings in the living room are all brand new (May 2022), creating a beautiful, air-conditioned space to recline with a good book, a newspaper, or a movie on the cable TV. Enjoy a comfortable bed and intricate furnishings in the bedroom and complimentary WiFi throughout.

Ocean front/view. Enjoyed our stay.

This unit is very well maintained. Extremely hard to keep properties on the water in good condition. Everything very well maintained and clean including walkways, pool, grills, washer/ dryers. We spent almost two weeks at this unit and enjoyed having coffee while the sun came up in the morning and sunsets at night. Bed very comfortable and if you need something, just look around and this unit probably has it. We have used VRBO all over the world and also other beach/ water front units. This was very good.

The location is wonderful--overlooking the ocean from the lanai. While the condo has all of the basics, there were several problems with the property: an unceasing whine from the pool motor which was a few feet from the bedroom (the shed could be insulated to muffle the sound); most of the outlets only worked some of the time; little bits of peeling paint throughout the unit; a keypad that doesn't work easily. Also, this is one of the Vacasa properties that doesn't allow you to check in before 4 p.m. Since many flights from the mainland arrive in the morning, this was inconvenient. And, following a Vacasa rule instituted during covid, there is no food in the condo, not even salt and pepper. But the location is great.

Enjoyed sitting on the patio and watching waves break over the rocks 30 feet away. We were surprised by how beautiful this place is.

My husband and I stayed in this vacation home for 5 nights. The placement on the water and right next to the pool makes it a prime location. We watched the tide pools, the winter waves and the surfers all day long from the lanai. The property was very clean. Having the extra sink in the bedroom was helpful for a one bathroom unit. We would absolutely stay here again.

I loved many things about this property, the view being number one. The condo is clean and was perfect for us. The update on the bathroom was nice. The bedroom is cozy and the air conditioner worked great. We never got tired of the view. Get ready for amazing sunsets! We also loved watching the eels and reef fish right off our lanai. We can't wait to come back!

This place is quite lovely situated next to the water. The sound of the surf is ever present and the lanai is a perfect place to watch a Hawaiian sunset.
