About this property
We want you to have a wonderful stay at our condo; therefore, we’d like to let you know about some ongoing construction/maintenance work at the Kona Reef complex.
Kona Reef complex will undergo concrete structure and resurfacing repair from January 2026 through June 2027. These dates are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances (weather or other).
Construction will take place during normal daytime hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) Monday through Friday, with most public areas remaining accessible. While this construction is ongoing, you may hear construction noise from and/or see maintenance equipment (scaffolding, jack-hammers, saws, compressors, dumpsters, trucks), and workers on-site.
As of September 3, the construction on our Building (Building F) for concrete structure and resurfacing repairs is now complete.
Construction has started on the upper deck parking and lobby area (closest to Building F, which started September 14, 2026 and is expected to continue through September 29, 2026. The Upper and Lower garages (located under Building F) are also being worked on for exterior walls. Concrete structure and resurfacing repairs are expected to last on the garages through June 2027. These dates are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances (weather or other).
Therefore, we have reduced the nightly rate during this construction time to reflect the possibility of disruption from lobby and parking structures (located under building F) having work done.
Thank you for your understanding as our community makes these necessary improvements! Please reach out if you have any questions before booking.
Oceanfront Kona Paradise with Unobstructed Views
Wake up to the sound of the Pacific and enjoy unobstructed ocean views from your living room, kitchen, and private lanai at Kona Reef F14. This beautiful 1-bedroom, 1-bath oceanfront condo puts you just a short walk from downtown Kailua-Kona, while giving you a peaceful place to relax and enjoy spectacular sunsets.
Why guests love F14:
🌊 Unbeatable oceanfront location
F14 is located on the ocean side (Makai) of Aliʻi Drive, with a direct, unobstructed view of the Pacific. From the lanai, you can watch the waves, enjoy your morning coffee, and take in Kona's famous sunsets.
❄️ Full AC — including the bedroom
Stay cool and comfortable throughout your stay with quiet split-system air conditioning in both the living room and bedroom. This is a major advantage in Kona, where many condos have only a single wall-mounted unit in the living room—or no AC at all.
🛏️ Comfortable king bedroom
The bedroom features a King Sleep Number bed, allowing you to adjust the firmness to your preference. The living room has a queen sleeper sofa with a comfortable memory-foam mattress, making F14 a great choice for couples, families, or friends traveling together.
🏖️ Beach gear is ready for you
We've stocked the condo with vacation essentials so you can spend less time packing and more time enjoying the island. You'll have access to snorkel equipment, boogie boards, beach chairs, and coolers during your stay.
📍 Walkable Kona location
Enjoy the convenience of being just a short walk south of Kailua-Kona, with easy access to restaurants, shops, oceanfront dining, beaches, and the activities that make the Kona coast so special.
The Space
F14 is 650 square feet and offers everything you need for a comfortable Big Island getaway. The open living area and kitchen take advantage of the spectacular ocean view, while the private lanai gives you the perfect spot to slow down and enjoy Hawaii.
After a day of snorkeling, exploring the coast, or visiting one of the Big Island's many attractions, come home, enjoy the sound of the ocean, cool AC, and settle into the comfortable king bed.
Whether you're planning a romantic Hawaiian escape, an island adventure, or simply want a beautiful place to relax, Kona Reef F14 gives you the oceanfront location, views, comfort, and amenities to make your stay special.

The condo was perfect for the two of us. Beautiful view, walking to the village and excellent snorkeling gear. We plan to stay here the next time we visit Hawaii
This property is in an ideal location. It is within easy walking distance of numerous dining and shopping spots. There is a farmer's market within walking distance as well. It is a convenient base for excursions to any part of the island.Lori was an excellent host. She was very responsive and helpful. The information provided was extremely thorough and detailed. There was construction and renovation going on which did create some daytime noise. While the pool was open, the construction did create a bit of worker traffic around the pool. We were busy with many other activities and it did not effect us.The beach, adjacent to the south of the property is a gem. Overall, it was an amazing experience and if we visit Kona again we would stay here again.
All of it from excellent communivation to wonderful suite and ammenities.
Well appointed condo with a significant amount of extras that were appreciated (i.e. cooler, beach chairs, umbrella, yoga mats, etc.). Kitchen is well equipped from storage containers to appropriate pool vs. indoor dishware.
We loved our stay here! The location was excellent and the view was exceptional. I’ve never seen a property so well-stocked with anything anyone could possibly need. Highly recommend!
The unit was everything we needed and the location was perfect! The ocean view was amazing and the short walk to restaurants was just what we wanted. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot!
Beautiful scenery. Comfortable bed and living room.
We loved staying at Jay and Lori's place. Everything was as described, and more. You can't lose on staying here! Lori was easy to communicate with, and we will definitely be back!
Everything from start to finish was perfect. Lori is a friendly and communicative property owner, her pride in ownership is reflected in every aspect of this condo. The. Condo is in a lovely area which is walkable to the main drag, it has a beautiful ocean view and it is absolutely spotless. We loved the pool area. We ran into a problem with our Hilo rental and Lori was wonderful in helping us with an early check in. Totally recommend this beautiful slice of paradise, w will definitely return since we visit Hawaii every year. Mahalo!
Everything was wonderful. Lori and Jay are excellent hosts. Their unit was clean and comfortable and they supplied everything you would need for a wonderful and relaxed vacation. It was located for an easy walk to town for shopping, eating and drinking. Parking included, we rented a car and went sight seeing and the unit felt like home after a long day of adventures. The bed was luxurious and we had no trouble adjusting to the time change. Thanks again for making our 30th anniversary a dream come true. Aloha
Best time ever staying at the Kona Reef ( Lori the host was the best ) Ocean View ( Condo was all set up for us ) quite , clean , would definitely stay at Lori’s condo again ( Rate 5 stars and much more like 10 stars )
Lori and Jay’s lovely unit is one of the best short term rentals we have ever stayed in! Spotlessly clean and equipped with absolutely anything you could need or want! Large spacious lanai with a gorgeous view. Split AC keeps both the bedroom and living room cool. Close walk to multiple restaurants and shops. Very responsive hosts. We loved the Big Island and would stay here again in a heartbeat!
We had a wonderful time. The condominium was one of the nicest I've ever rented!
Would absolutely stay here again! Great location, beautiful view, very clean and comfortable space, huge bed, a/c worked good, kitchen had everything you'd need and the beach equipment came in handy.
The location was perfect. It’s a short walk into town with plenty of restaurants and shops. Loved the view from the lanai and the sunsets. The condo felt just like home. The host provides everything you could possibly need and more! It was the perfect place for us to relax after all of our daily activities! Thank you for opening up your beautiful place for others to enjoy! Mahalo!
We had everything we needed and more for a wonderful week in Kona!
We had a lovely stay at the Kona Reef. The condo’s washer and dryer (and included soap) were helpful in keeping our suits and towels from getting musty. We had breakfast on the lanai every morning and loved watching the surfers and boogie borders. The location was perfect - far enough away to be quiet, close enough to Kona for easy access to restaurants and shopping. My only comment is that the paperwork you receive is pretty adamant about not getting sand in the condo. As a big beach goer, that part left me a little nervous. Sand in female swimsuits is an inevitability when you’re body surfing. There is a hose and shower at the pool to get visible sand, but there was this added layer of stress to get as much sand off as me as possible. In the end, I think we did okay, but it might be a hard thing to do with a child.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kona Reef. The unit had a great view right on the water. Liked sitting out on the Lanai and listening to the sound of the ocean. Unit was fully equipped with anything you could need. Lori was a gracious host and kept us advised of maintenance/management folks who might drop by. Location is very convenient to several good bars/restaurants. highly recommended. .
This is my second time here and now a permanent place to stay when I come to the big island. Gracious hosts and they place is absolutely perfect. The owners care about their place and keep it well maintained. The location and view are exceptional. You will be very happy here.
Lovely condo well equipped with everything we could possibly need. Location is great, view is amazing, and everything was easy. Would definitely stay here again.
Great stay very comfortable condo has everything you need Convenient to town for eats and drinks Easy communication with owners
Beautiful View
This property was perfect! Great location, clean and had everything needed for a relaxing stay. I can’t say enough about how thoughtful Lori and Jay were with their communication and concerns for a delightful stay. I hope we can make it back soon, I also feel at ease to highly recommend their property to anyone who’s considering it ! Thanks again, Bob and Roseann.
The unit was beautifully and comfortable furnished and had everything we needed and then some. The views from the balcony were amazing with whale sightings almost every day. The location was great. Just a few blocks from too many bars and restaurants to count. The beach chairs, cooler and boogie boards were perfect. The owners were great to deal with and we highly recommend this property!
Beautiful location on the water . Watch sunset every night. Pleasant walk to town. Stocked with everything you would need for an amazing stay. Responsive owners. Overall great experience.
This is a wonderful unit. Walking distance to town, beautiful setting, well appointed unit. We will stay again when on the Big Island.
