(Please note there is a 7 night minimum at Christmas time. )
We are the newest complex on Alii Drive in Kona. Our location can't be beat. NOTE: LOTS OF UPGRADES added. We just added all New stainless steel appliances, a new central air conditioning system, and beautiful wood flooring.
Our wonderful location is full of rich cultural and historical history and has a legendary past. Our ideal location is directly adjacent to Kahalu'u Beach Park. Many of our guests love it so much they come back year after year. ) and this is the newest condo complexes in the last several years. We have been with VRBO from the time they first went online. I really enjoy what I do and have a tremendous passion for The Big Island. Our location is perfect for couples or families. There is so much to do. A surf shop is a block away. You can take paddle board or surf lessons, rent gear including boards and canoes. We now have bikes to rent right in front of the complex.
In our condo, I like to pay attention to detailing when decorating our unit.
Also note, this condo could accommodate up to 5- 6 people, as we do have 2 fold away beds or blow up beds available. :) We own 2 side by side units in the building, so if this one is booked just message me and we may have the other one available. If you have any questions I am Gail Gartner Eddy on fb and you can ask me direct there if you would like. It is a great way to have many questions answered.
Ahhhhhh…… Paradise. ALOHA, You have found the perfect Hawaiian Vacation Spot. We are located right at the BEST snorkeling beach on the Big Island, even the lifeguards were talking about it when we were there in Oct. It can't be beat. If you love to snorkel, this is the condo you want. The snorkeling is absolutely incredible and since you are right there, you have the opportunity to go morning, noon and early evening. There are so many species of colorful fish and they are so friendly. When recently and I felt like I was in 'Fish Heaven,' they were that beautiful. Also, this is a Bay where many sea turtles hang out. They love swimming along with you. I will be happy to share some of our pics or You-tube video with you. As for the beach, it is perfect for little ones too. Our generally gentle beach is only steps from the condo. I have some pictures on this site and have more if you want to see them. During the Winter months the surf to the North part of the bay kicks up making it a great surfing spot. Just walk a block North to the local Surf Shop and rent snorkeling gear, take surf lessons or rent a paddle board. Went with our Grandsons (ages 8 and 10 this Summer and they loved the surf lessons given by Ben, who by the way is Great with kids) It was definitely the highlight of their Summer. Also note, the Bay area is pretty much protected and great to snorkel any time. AND, don’t forget to try the shaved at the beach from the food truck that comes daily.
From the condo OCEAN Views are yours! Our New Designer Decorated Condo can be your oasis away from home. Walk in the door to the sound of Hawaiian music from our google dot welcoming you. The view of the Ocean as you open the door is breath-taking, I am sure you will agree. :) We are the newest construction on Alii Drive in the last 20 years! The condo has all you will need for your home away from home. I love all the colors of Hawaii, so we incorporated that throughout the condo. Open the triple sliding French door and cross over the teak threshold onto the lanai, take in the beautiful ocean view, smell the air and listen to the native birds while watching the palms gently sway in the tropical breeze. ' Mornings and evenings are a real treat. In the morning you will enjoy your views of the coastline and beach. You will see and hear an array of brightly colored songbirds singing their morning songs. Early Wed. morning you will see luxury cruise ships sailing into port. In the evenings, while enjoying your dinner, you will be treated to one of those unforgettable Kona sunsets where the colors of the sky and sea are beyond description and quite possibly your imagination. you might be fortunate enough to get a glimpse of the famous 'green flash'. )
Our condo is large, luxurious, and has all the amenities you need. The condo features state of the art design from the granite counter tops to the glass door cherry wood cabinets completely stocked with colorful dishes. The bathrooms have glass block showers and art glass sinks, just to name a few. All of the rooms as well as the lanai have tropical ceiling fans and tray ceilings. There is a large flat screen TV in the living room with Disc player and a TV in each bedroom with disc player. S. and Canada.

Great location, condo is well maintained, contact with owner, allowed earlier check in, didn’t incur any issues at rental during our visit. Already discussing another family vacation. Would highly recommend this unit to other family and friends.

The condo was great, spacious enough for 2 couples to move around without being on top of each other. Location is literally right across the street from beach park with great snorkeling. There is a great view from the lanai! Nice amenities like beach chairs, umbrellas. People should know that once you are south of Kona, Alii drive is adjacent to the ocean so you will have a road between homes and the beach. We were aware and had no issue with this because the view was still epic and the price very reasonable for Big island lodging but someone in our party was surprised by this from the photos. Also right down the road from a shopping center with a grocery store and drug store, dining options, coffee shops and even a farmers market, which proved very useful and let us experience the area like locals, which is how we like to go. Hosts were actually staying in the condo next door, were very nice but entirely unobtrusive. Oh, nice pool too.

The condo was beautiful and the lanai had breathtaking views of the ocean and mountains. The common area had a grill and infinity pool, which was an amazing place to watch the sunset. Across the street was a great snorkeling beach. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

The stay was very nice. The property manager was very responsive. We had a small issue with one of the smoke detectors kept beeping like a low battery. Reached out to the property manager and they came and replaced it.

Nice apartment. Can look at beach from bedroom or lanai and see water conditions for snorkeling. Also, surfboard training.. Walk across street to get to beach. Fantastic place for starting snorkeling but also interesting for experienced snorkelers. A few turtles were in cove. Beach gear and a Pack and Play in closet, if you have little one.Quiet area at night, need to drive a short distance for shopping or restaurants

This place is magical. My 3 sons, husband and I had the best time here. It was exactly as the listing says. We loved watching the sunset and then star gazing from the lanai. Walking down to the beach for the most amazing snorkeling in the morning. It was clean and had everything we needed. Felt like our own private oasis. We would come back here in a heartbeat.

From the first time we corresponded, Gail was enthusiastic and quick to respond to questions. Overall, communication was excellent. The condo is located in a great spot, right across the street from some of the most readily accessible snorkeling on the island and just down the road from the town center with lots to see and enjoy. We did easy day trips from the condo to the North and South tips of the island. The condo itself was very clean, had everything we needed, and even a King size bed for the adults. We did not pay extra for air conditioning so it did get warm at times, but with the fans, we had no trouble sleeping. We also enjoyed the pool that’s within the condo complex. Overall, this is a great place for a family and was perfect for our first stay on the Big Island.

Everything was wonderful, from the condo with pool and hot tub, to the best snorkeling right across the street! We took the cot. Cook snorkeling adventure; while we had a lot of fun, we thought the snorkeling off our beach (as we came to call it) was much better! So much to do on the Big Island; Gail had a wonderful ‘fun things to do list’. We thought the condo was very comfortable, great beds, lovely well equipped kitchen and the lanai was beautiful, we lived watching the sun set from there! Thank you, Gail!

My family (two adults, two kids ages 8 and 10) stayed here the second week of June. When we entered the condo both my kids and husband just about lost their minds over how nice and luxurious it was. The condo is very nicely laid out, with the kids' room (two twin beds) across the living room from the primary bedroom. The beds and pillows were so comfortable (better than I sleep in hotels!) and well stocked with beach and pool toys. The ceiling fans were very much appreciated to keep the air moving and the balcony is pleasantly shaded most of the day.
The location of the condo is amazing - across the street from Kahalu'u Beach Park with excellent snorkeling and a coral reef. The complex includes a pool (with clear view of the beach) and hot tub. Finding parking in the complex lot was very easy.
Gail, the owner, sent an email with lots of info and recommendations for the area. This was a fantastic rental choice for our family.

We enjoyed our week at this condo. We were traveling with our adult children and the location worked out well for us. The snorkeling at Kahalu’u across the street was fabulous. Everyone also enjoyed boogie boarding at Magic Sand Beach which is walkable from the condo. Gail had wonderful suggestions and we took many of them. The condo had a wonderful view and the pool view was the best! We would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our 3 days here and wished it could be more! The location of the condo is perfect, far enough from Kona to be quiet and just across the street from a wonderful beach.
We were a family of six and the condo accommodated us well (if a little tightly at times). The kitchen was easy to work in and the decor was very nice. We especially appreciated the lanai where we could sit and watch the ocean and the beach. The children loved the pool and we all loved being able to just walk across the street to some great snorkeling. (Having beach towels, etc. in the condo was a big help.)
We had no problems while we were there, and Gail was extremely helpful with all the questions that we had before our arrival, plus suggestions of what we might do in the area and in the time between our arrival and when we could access the unit. A most attentive host!
Should we be fortunate enough to visit Kona in the future, we would definitely hope to stay in "Gail's condo" again!

Gail’s condo is situated across a snorkeling beach, which was pretty cool! All we had to do was walk a few steps to get there. The pool was nice, beds were comfortable, nice and clean bathrooms and kitchen. My favorite part was doing my work on my laptop while having the ocean view right there. Gail gives great tips for where to go and her property manager is very responsive. Overall, I was happy with my stay.

I had a problem checking in due to another random family checked in before me.The Door code was the same as another property and there was an unexpected error.The property manager took awhile to fix the problem and we sat in the car for about an hour.When the property manager finally fixed the problem it was smooth sailing from there.
