The property was just what we wanted & hoped for. Great views across the ocean & beautiful sunsets.The aoartment was great with fans in each room, it was spacious and didnt get too warm during the day. There were extensive cooking facilities and lots of little extras that you would have at home.The bed was super comfy (a black out curtain would help though), bathroom was good with a nice large shower.Plenty of parking & the location wise was about 20min walk to the pier area.All in all we had a great stay and love this placed. If we could, we'd definitely want to teturn here.

The place was a great size and a great location with a beautiful view. However the place is outdated with a couple upgrades. The tv is not a smart tv, so no Netflix, YouTube or steaming of any kind even with mobile device. The place is clean in common places, but is dirty up above, in oven and under chair in living room. They give only 1 ply toilet paper and the bedroom never gets dark. I took pics of everything. This was the third time to the island and have stayed in the same place the last couple times. With this place you are paying for the view. Cleanliness is not a priority which is a deal for me.

Overall, a fantastic spot if what you’re looking for is an oceanfront and great access to town with shops and restaurants a short walk away. It’s a modest property that could use a little updating but it has everything you’ll need (including a room fan to help the cooler living room air reach the warm bedroom) for a beautiful Kona vacation. Mahalo!

Our 10 day stay @ Kona Reef D-37 was wonderful. We loved being here. Comfortable unit with everything we needed. Beautiful… amazing view. Good A/C in the living room. Great ceiling fan in the bedroom. Washer and dryer in the unit makes arriving home so much easier. No laundry to do after a long trip. Location was perfect. Close to everything. Check-in was easy. Parking was great. So appreciative of the owners making this available. We loved it here!!

The lanai is wonderful and is where we spent our time when in the condo during our 8 night stay. King bed comfortable. Plenty of fluffy white towels and 4 beach towels for 2 people. Essentials in the kitchen and we grilled fresh fish several evenings (recommend KTA grocery stores for fish). Some dishes in the kitchen were dirty and had to bleach the coffee mugs because they were so crusted. The condo was clean but needs a deep clean (very dusty behind furniture, top of drapes in bedroom, pantry shelves). Really appreciated the portable chairs, umbrellas, binoculars and The Big Island Revealed book. A must have for driving around the island. Plenty of parking. Pool area clean and lots of chairs. We would stay again. Mahalo!

The place was nice. The view is great. I would make a suggestion to the owner to maybe purchase some plastic plates or something so you can have dinner down at the bbq area since they don’t allow glass. The main bed and the fold out bed are horrible and should be replaced. The runner carpets in hallway and kitchen are in desperate need of cleaning. Only other suggestion would be some nice beach chairs and a usable ice chest would be nice. For the cost of rental I think they could afford more than a styrofoam ice chest. Overall a great place to stay.

The location of the property was amazing! Right on the waterfront with loud waves crashing and great ocean sound. It was easily walkable to all restaurants, stores and downtown. The pool area was great for grilling and having dinner out by the pool. The air conditioner really cooled the place down when needed. The kitchen was stocked with all things needed to cook.
