Property was just like it was listed. Location was great. Watching the sunsets every night from the lanai was perfect. Everyone in the cove were friendly and we met a lot of people there. The pool area was very nice also. Paul was excellent at getting back to us when we contacted him.

We had a wonderful time during our four month stay at Ali'i Cove. The unit was in the perfect location with the best ocean view to enjoy the sunsets every night. The property manager Paul was outstanding and was very responsive to our requests. The Ali'i Cove grounds are kept to the highest standards and the pool area is very nice and clean. The location of the condo is perfect and a short walk to all the restaurants and bars in downtown Kona. We would stay at Ali'i Cove again during our next visit to Kona and would recommend it to our friends.
Alii Cove is a nice condo complex with a nice pool and is in a terrific location as it is within walking distance to Kona town. The unit, while close enough to Honl's beach to hear the surf break and watch the surfers, is very, very tired. We were the first renters after the islands opened up following the initial Covid lockdown. The property manager did a great job having carpets cleaned and unit prepped before our arrival, and was very responsive to a few requests we had. However, it quickly became clear that this was a unit that has been heavily rented for years and it is very, very tired. The beds were comfortable, thank heavens. The living room furniture was extremely uncomfortable due to sagging. We had plywood put under the cushions and had to turn the cushions upside down and backwards just to try and get some support - I even brought in a beach chair to sit in rather than the couches. The loft area has one newer couch/pull out bed but it is otherwise completely barren. Shag carpets in a tropical climate I would also not recommend for obvious reasons - and was full of cleaning spots. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes but utensils and other cookware were also very tired - I visited the Goodwill store for some items. Master bathroom needs to be overhauled. And that is the roof of the pumping station you see off the lanai - occasional wafts of unpleasant odors, so heads up.
Homey this unit was not. However, Kona is fabulous and we learned that we would like to return to Alii Cove but definitely not in this unit.
