This place was special. Great location and views for the best nightly sunsets (and whales), huge lanai for all of us to relax on and enjoy meals and drinks, next to the pool/jacuzzi, restaurant/bar, and nightly soft live music playing. The restaurant was great for lunch and dinners when not wanting to venture out. The accommodations were clean and comfortable for us (2 couples). Monday nights there is a small hula show right below and we had the best view. The property management staff was very responsive and accommodating to a couple of our requests which fantastic. We are planning to stay here again next year and bringing family. It was an awesome, relaxing vacation and this place was great!
The units have a great ocean view. They are wonderful and modern with great amenities. The pool and hot tub are right downstairs and quite enjoyable. Do bring USB adapters with you as there are no modern outlets or places for charging items. We can’t recommend this place enough.
This property is well-maintained and clean. It didn't have that "run-down" feel some properties can have. My husband and I were in the bigger unit and our friends in the smaller one. The bed was very comfortable, and there were plenty of towels available (for showering AND the beach). I loved having air conditioning and a washer/dryer in the unit. I also loved having two separate units so each couple could have some privacy. The lanai was our "common room". When we weren't out exploring the island, we could be found on the lanai. The views are spectacular! There are beach accessories available (chairs, towels, a cooler, etc) which was very much appreciated.The location was great and the hosts were amazing. Wayne and Corrina were easy to reach by phone and always pleasant and helpful. Check in/check out was easy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again the next time we visit the Big Island.
Great location, steps from the pool. Really enjoyed having our meals on the lanai overlooking the golf course and ocean. Nice shopping center up the hill-about a 10 minute walk to restaurants, grocery store & shops. Condos were clean, beds comfortable & were as presented online. The AC wasn’t working in the smaller unit upon arrival, but resolved in a timely manner.
When I was considering this property, before committing, I was totally focused on the room amenities - all of which were great. I missed several key features which added to our stay:- On-site restaurant serving breakfast, lunch & dinner. Live music several nights.- A shopping center within a 10 minute walk, including grocery and several restaurants.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This was our second visit to this comfortable and beautiful spot and I'm happy to say that it was just as wonderful as the first visit last fall. I think the lanai in this unit is one of the best outdoor spaces I've ever stayed at; large enough to enjoy with a group of friends, well designed with both sun and shade areas, very private (no units above, below, or adjoining) and boasting a lovely view across a gulf course to the ocean. The beds were quite comfortable, with squishy down pillows, the kitchens were well stocked, and the furnishings very adequate. The location is excellent with the town about a 15 minute drive and a beach within a very short drive. We enjoyed two great meals at Kenichi, a Japanese restaurant just up the hill at the Keahou shopping center. The condo is a "private unit" within the Kona Coast resort and while you have access to all the resort's offerings (pool, restaurant, etc.), checking in and out and maintenance are handled by the unit's owner, who made sure we received excellent info (directions, entry procedure, etc.) and was quick to respond to the two minor maintenance problems we encountered.
Lovely sunset views off the balcony. Convenient bar/restaurant and pool location. Very comfortable bed- a huge plus in my opinion. this place is a winner and I would definitely book again.

Found this place after a lot of searching around and it was perfect for my family - my older dad and younger siblings and I in our twenties. Close to magic sands, next to a farmers market, and generally close to every attraction not super touristy. We didn’t realize that the penthouse was sort of set apart from the rest of the resort, but having that privacy was great. We were out on the lanai every day - it was wonderful and is a memory my dad cherishes every day. He’s one that pinches pennies but even he complimented me on this find. There was a minor issue, but the someone from the rental agency came same day to take a look. Highly recommend to any family.
We stayed with our two children. The two suites are married by a private entryway allowing the kids to be in one suite and you in another. The views of the sunsets are incredible you’re immediately adjacent to the pool which makes taking kids easy (and leaving them behind while you grab a cocktail and a swim). My favorite stay ever.

We had a great stay at this penthouse/side by side. The rooms were nicely kept, great air condition when needed and full glass views of the ocean, palm trees, lava beach and green golf course. It does have stairs to navigate (2 flights)_ but well worth the trip. The lanai view is absolutely beautiful. We had great stay and were completely satisfied. Owner/manager is very responsive and communicative. Would give it absolutely our next booking to Kona.
Units were as advertised and the nicest in the entire resort. Everything was perfect for our needs.

Our stay at this resort was amazing. It was perfect for our family vacation. It is two separate units with a huge shared lanai, providing privacy and ample space to relax together.
The master bedroom had doors that opened to lanais on both sides, allowing cool night breezes to fill the room.
The resort is well located with nice amenities. We enjoyed the restaurant at the pool for a quick bite. I would definitely stay here again.

This was our second time staying at this property.... and we have already booked it for a third. The unit set up is great for a family, especially with older or adult children.The lanai is where we spend the majority of our time while staying at this property. We love watching the golfers, listening to the birds, and taking in the beauty of the ocean. On multiple days, we saw the spray from the whales in the distance. One evening there was a band and group of children who performed Hawaiian music and talked about the history of the islands. We love this spot for the peace and relaxation we experience while being on the BI. We cannot wait for our next adventure that is already booked for next year.
Overall our stay was wonderful. We had a couple small issues upon arriving but the response was immediate and issues resolve. Thank you Wayne! Such a great set up for our group. We were there with some friends. One couple in the smaller condo and my husband and I in the larger condo however we cooked, dined and spent our time together in the larger unit. We spent every morning and evening on the lanai looking over the pool, golf course and ocean. The view is amazing. We couldn’t believe how beautiful it was. The pictures don’t do it justice. Couldn’t ask for a better place! We hope to come again soon and have already recommended it to other friends and relatives!
