Beautifully cleverly decorated clean condo. Pretty view. Quiet. Nice pool! Fabulous location w easy walk along garden path to water and eateries. Fantastic host! So friendly and helpful with detailed info.
Great location and exactly what I was looking for.
The condo was in a great location for us - close to Kona village. It was clean and attractive. There’s only a small area for food prep, so outside of a continental breakfast, plan on eating out. The room was more than adequate for our stay, and we enjoyed our two days there.
Nice, clean room. Easy to check in/out. Thanks.
Very relaxing and clean! Location is ideal
Beautifully, tastefully decorated! Also. Well equipped wirh anything needed. Even a little cooler. Lovely location. Close but not noisely so to restaurants, shopping via little path. From rhe 3rd floor, private lanai we were in the treetops with the birds. Just above a large pink plumeria. Could glimpse the top of a cruise ship between the palms. The pool and hot tub are open until 10pm. Sweet bonus after a day of aloha. Miss it already
We loved our stay here. Accommodations were pleasant and exactly what we needed. Thank you for such a great vacation in the center of Kona.
Small but perfect for our needs, it is a good spot.
We only stayed for one night, but we loved the location and how close it was to nightlife and shops. The room was as described and clean. There are no elevators, in case someone is expecting that as this is on the 3rd floor. The neighbor greeted us when we got to the apartment. Everyone was friendly! Thank you!
Great property amazing access to everything!
This was the perfect place to stay! The location can’t be beat, was walking distance to Kona shops and restaurants. Bed was comfortable and I really enjoyed the balcony. Check in and check out was easy. Thanks for a great stay!
Perfect location, close to restaurants, shops and beach. We walked everywhere. The condo was sparkling clean with all needed amenities. The condo was beautifully decorated and air conditioning worked well. We loved the overall feel of the Kona Islander. We hope to return soon! The cat in the lobby was adorable and so sweet!
Check in was a breeze, clear & easy instructions. Condo was perfect size. Great air conditioner ( a must for the summer), and amazingly close to restaurants/the beach. Had a great stay and would highly recommend to anyone. Cute decor too! Felt safe as a solo female traveler. Loved the cats around the property too (:
Right next to the Farmer’s market, a breezy walk along the breakwater from my kids’ hotel, this apartment was cool and inviting. I especially enjoyed the decor and original art.
Condo was decorated great and amenities were as advertised
Our stay was very nice. We enjoyed the accommodations. And the location was everything for us.The mattress was a bit fun for us, but no complaint.
Provided a great stay! Everything we needed, nothing we didn't. Thanks!
I wanted to be close to center of town and close to beach. I loved this place. The beach is just a block away. And it’s not far to walk to the pier, beaches, restaurants, shops. It’s quiet here and lush trees surround you. The geckos and birds came to visit daily on the balcony. Perfect for my weeklong getaway over the Fourth of July. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a relaxing place that is still close to fun activities.
The place was clean. The property grounds were cute, with a lot of nature surrounding. It was also a nice surprise that it was next door to a Catholic Church. There were lots of restaurants within walking distance. I have no real complaints, but I don't think I would stay here again. It was close to the water, but not any beach that we actually would want to relax at. We would stay more north next time because that's where the beautiful beaches are. Another random quirk was that the kitchen sink & bathroom sink were the same. It was kind of awkward to have my toiletries right there as I was making sandwiches for the beach. Counter space was lacking for it being a shared spot. All in all, the place served its purpose - aka a quiet, safe place to sleep at night. I'd recommend having a rental car if you plan to stay here. My husband and I prefer to just walk places, though, so we didn't have a rental. We ended up ubering to the beach every day. Also, the weather was always sunnier more north. Communication with the owner was spot on, which was a positive!
Host was the best communicator of any Vrbo we’ve been to! Clear and helpful instructions and information!
Perfect tucked away quiet location. Clean and quirky but worked well for our stay
The Kona Islander Inn is the perfect location to stay in Kona, and this place was nice. Would rent again!
Everything was nice and clean. Could use an AC upgrade. A little noisy next to the bed
We loved our stay. So close to the ocean and just steps away from all the restaurants, convenience stores and specialty shops. We enjoyed coffee on the lanai every morning, seeing and hearing the birds in the flowering trees, and watching cruise ships come and go.The air conditioner worked well and there was also a floor fan which we used at night. We could have our choice of sun and shade as we lounged at the pool which was clean and the perfect temperature to cool down in.For those with mobility issues, there are stairs to climb, as the room is on the third floor.
Constant soothing sounds of the ocean, the doves & other birds, the geckos, & Cokie frogs. The smell of plumeria, palms, and all the beautiful flora that surrounds the Doves nest. The human part: beautiful, tropical, beautiful paintings by owner, room to move around, and just enough in the kitchenette to prepare uncomplicated meals & spend more time just enjoying the Island or Chillaxing.
Great condo with central location. Stayed two nights and didn’t use our car. Everything is walking distance from this condo. Nice lanai and sitting area for morning coffee. We would stay again!
This is a great place to stay if you are into the touristy type of things. My trip was a little different than that. But the highlight of the trip were the hosts. They were very responsive and helped me to feel settled as I waited in the 1.5 hour line to pick up the rental car, which delayed my arrival. They gave me some excellent dinner recommendations, and were so helpful. Mahalo!!
My husband and I stayed 2 weeks in the KONA DOVE , , and had the most relaxing little holiday ever . This is a superb location !!! Located smack dab in the middle of everything …. Shops , eateries , food stores all within easy walking distance . Comfy bed , everything clean and maintained . Loved the decor !
Really enjoyed staying here! Walking distance to Kona; lots to do all within a few minutes. The room itself was very nice and super clean. Highly recommend!
After being in a small hotel room on Honolulu, we had great joy walking into this large space with a sweet kitchen area, and everything you need. It was nice to be able to walk to eat just around the corner, and I was grateful for a laundry room on sight. Everything was explained. by our host prior to arrival which was so helpful
