spectacular ocean front studio condo, Magic sands, ideal view and location

The view, it’s was very relaxing and breathtaking. The condo was clean, and the location was over all pretty nice. Most definately would love to book there again!

Overall, we felt this place was rather shabby and way over priced. After the added VRBO and cleaning fees, the price was 378 a night. There is no elevator, so everything had to be carried up three flights of outdoor steps. The bathroom sink drain was slow, the shower is tiny, the bathroom screen allows tiny gnats through, so there are always bugs in the bathroom. There is no balcony. Magic Sands beach is rocks. We appreciated the beach chairs and towels. For a lower price, this place would be ok.

The property opens up directly on the ocean with a full view. The condo is well apportioned and right in Magic Sands beach. Bring your binoculars to watch whales.

We had a wonderful stay. The home had everything we needed. Daily whale watching. The onsite restaurant was a nice treat. Even though there was construction going on, the workers were very considerate. Homeowner, Sage was always available when a question arose.

This property offers a peaceful place to enjoy the majesty of the ocean, sunsets and Hawaiian beauty. The unit is clean, well-appointed and easy to find. The host was available, helpful and very communicative. This was a terrific stay and we will be back. A true favorite.

Easy access to a great, sandy beach and spectacular view of the ocean from the room. I will say the view from the room is a little bit affected by the residual of some old window treatments, but if you open the windows there it is. The host was very responsive to questions via text. The overall property itself is on the older-side and shows a little bit of wear, such as the pool area, but it is still comfortable and in a great location if you are coming to Hawaii for a beach and those lovely ocean sunsets.

The best part about the stay was that the property management is so courteous and replied quickly to all my correspondence. She also was kind to accommodate with an early check in but ended up getting to Kona late. Also, if we needed to extend, she was very helpful on working it out. The Condo is older than many oceanside, but they have a restaurant attached that made it really convenient with a late-night check in...There are lots of nice amenities I had no idea was available in the condo. Presentation was clean and the bed was so comfy. We weren't in the room except at sunset to early morning so being on the ocean the sea must make it hard to keep windows clean. Something is up with the sofa, but we didn't need to use, so no prob. Not sure about the pool. Overall we were grateful for a quiet comfortable stay, Mahalo!

Great location right by the beach with gorgeous views from the room and beautiful sunsets. Good spot to explore all parts of the Kona side of the island from. Only down side was the tiny water heater. We had to learn to take a 3-4 min shower each before the hot water ran out but certainly not a deal breaker.

My wife and I have been visiting Kona once or twice a year for many years and for the past six years, we've brought our child who has really taken a liking to Magic Sands Beach. We usually stay right in downtown Kona, but this time we decided to try a place closer to Magic Sands—and we weren't disappointed! The area was quieter and having the ocean waves crashing right outside was spectacular, especially with the stunning sunset views. With Magic’s Beach Grill/Shack nearby offering coffee and light breakfasts each morning, we were well-prepared for our days. Waking up, grabbing a coffee and a quick bite, and then walking over to the beach was incredibly convenient. As light travelers, the layout of the condo suited us well; my wife and I slept on the bed and our child used the fold-out sofa bed, with plenty of room for all. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this unit if you’re looking for a comfortable oceanside stay.

Condo has a great view of the ocean, literally just outside the door. All the accommodations you need and comfortable bed and really nice smart TV. Owner was very responsive to our needs and extremely personable.

so close to the waves! next to Magic Sand beach for boogie boarding and close to Kahalu’u for snorkling. beach stuff (chairs, snorkel stuff, boogie board), good towels, well equipped kitchen, good AC, laundry, great pool, nice set up!
