Rental Details

Property Overview

***POOL CLOSURE Aug 17-Sep 7th, 2026. Prices have been adjusted accordingly***

Accessible and modern ground-floor, 2 bedroom/2 bath unit with spectacular ocean front views on a 200 sq ft lanai. Only one small step from a parking spot directly in front of your unit separates you from your Hawaii Island home (walk around to the right for step-less entry). No other stairs! Granite counter tops and a fully stocked kitchen await, along with an extra-large washer & dryer, step in showers in both bathrooms, a king-size tempurpedic bed, and queen-sized Murphy bed in the guest room. Check-in anytime with our PIN-based door lock.

We are also sticklers for health and cleanliness. We follow VRHP/VRMA (Vacation Rental Housekeeping Professionals/Management Association) guidelines and protocols for cleaning, including blocking at least one day between rentals, having our cleaners wait at least three hours prior to entry to protect their health, and using a comprehensive disinfection process with a focus on high-touch surfaces. Linens and bedding are washed using the highest possible temperatures, and everything that was out for use will be washed as well, regardless if it was used.

Concrete construction, ground floor location, and ceiling fans in all rooms keep the unit cool. However, to accommodate those unaccustomed to tropical climates, there are two air conditioners: a 10,000 BTU unit in the master bedroom/living room and an 8,000 BTU unit in the guest bedroom. But feel free to keep all the windows open at night since you're set so far back from Alii Drive! Nearly 200 meters/yards separate you from the roar of traffic, leaving only the sound of crashing waves to lull you to sleep at night. Our building is the closest one to the ocean in the complex. Don't forget to catch the fiery sunsets from April - September from the privacy of your lanai, and from the viewing area the rest of the year.

Feel like getting a little work done? There's a portable desk, networked laser printer, high-speed internet access, and 5G router. In case you need a break from vacationing, Netflix and other Roku apps are available on our 55" LG 4KTV. Our unit comes with beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and coolers as well, along with boogie boards and assorted beach toys for the kids. These supplies are stored in the outdoor closet, next to your parking spot. Heated pool and BBQ facilities are close by for those relax-at-home days.

This is our home for part of the year, and it shows. Artwork from well-renowned local artists and our own photography grace our walls, and furnishings/bedding are high end. Kitchen cupboards are completely stocked with china, glassware, cutlery, and nearly every appliance imaginable. We also make updates every time we visit. And don't forget about the heated pool and BBQ facilities just steps from the unit. If you're daring (and a really advanced snorkeler/swimmer), there is good snorkeling right outside the unit. *Warning* Tides can be very rough and unpredictable. Enter at your own risk! Seriously!

For full disclosure, there are two Google Nest cameras- one on the lanai above the love seat, focused on the space between the lanai and our neighbors, as well as the doorbell. The lanai camera will be disabled at check-in.

Important: If you plan on bringing a pet, PLEASE INQUIRE WITH US FIRST. All pets need to be approved by the Board, with an application submitted by the renter. If this is your first time traveling to Hawaii with a pet, please know that there are very strict rules/regulations governing bringing a pet into the state.

Finally, whatever you choose to do, our Kona Town Condo is the perfect unit in the perfect location for you and your ohana. Mahalo and e komo mai!

Great location! The lanai has a beautiful view of the ocean. Jason is super responsive.

We absolutely loved this location. Being right on the ocean was such a highlight. We watched a cruise ship come in on one of the mornings. We also saw a pod of dolphins one morning. The beds were comfortable and the apartment had all we needed. If I gave any complaints it would be just the temperature. We are mainlanders coming from no humidity. The A/C units and fans never cooled the place down cooler than 77 degrees. It was a bit warm for what we are used to sleeping in. The location was great for us to visit all over the island. We even enjoyed the pool on one of our days.

Very pleased with this condo! Jason was so great regarding communication. Really nice location, we walked into town a few times, a bit of a walk but definitely doable! Very clean, loved how we could hear the ocean from the bedroomy to fall as

Was very easy to feel right at home as soon as you walked in. Place has everything you need. The host had excellent communication with everything. Place is perfectly located in the town of Kona. My husband and I loved it! Quiet community, great views- we gathered every night to watch the sunset. Kona is simply magical and we never wanted to leave. Would absolutely stay here again!!

We were in town for 2.5 weeks leading up to the 2024 Ironman world championship. Jason and Emme‘s apartment has a great location, is super convenient, well equipped and very well maintained. We enjoyed it from start to finish. Also, Jason has done a great job as a host, sharing lots of valuable information. We would love to stay in this condo again, if we get a chance to return to this beautiful island one day. Mahalo!

The host was very thorough, including communication before and during the stay. The unit was equipped with everything you could need for a vacation at the beach. Views are outstanding and location was great! Miss hearing those waves crashing on the rocks while going to sleep or waking up. Great stay and hosts! Thank you for sharing your home.

Condo is convenient to town, great ocean views…. good sized for 4 adults.. and amazingly equipped! Everything you need in kitchen, pantry etc.. and the “beach closet” is a treasure trove!! Multiple Chairs, boogie boards, coolers… snorkel sets! Owner VERY helpful and responsive. Neighbors gather for sunset, lots of helpful tips. Really NOTHING negative to say! Pool for condo next door right next to our lanai, so need to close curtains if dressing in MBR.

Beautiful condo with all the comforts of home. Owner thought of everything. Jason was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions. Small foot note...i visited in late July. The big island is extremely humid in July. The aur conditioning unit in the living room is not sufficient to cool off the living room and master bedroom. Other than that, perfect stay. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend this unit.

Condo is well equipped with a great lanai for watching the waves, cruise ships, Para sailers and fishermen! AC was a welcome break from the humidity. Jason was very responsive prior to arrival and during our stay.
