Property Description
This air-conditioned direct oceanfront unit on the 3rd floor (with elevator) overlooks a large lava tide pool that is frequented by turtles and colorful Hawaiian reef fish. The warm Kona surf laps directly below the lanai. While you lounge on the lanai, watch surfers tackle the blue waves of Banyans Beach, one of Kona’s most popular surfing spots. This beautifully remodeled and furnished condo features an oceanfront living room and master bedroom with unparalleled 180 degree ocean views and access to spectacular Kona sea life and sunsets. Your cares dissolve away as warm sun and soothing surf caress your mind and body in your comfortable chairs. Enjoy the brilliant blue skies, green sea turtles, Humpback whales, spinner dolphins and surfers right from your lanai. In the quiet evening, relax on your lanai and experience the amazing reds and oranges of a spectacular Kona sunset as the huge orb descends into the sea through the softly waving palm fronds. Luxuriate in the master bathroom and shower with multiple shower heads, double sinks and contemporary tile work. The beautiful wood grain floor tile, well stocked kitchen with granite countertops and contemporary cabinets and upscale Hawaiian-themed furnishings will make you wish you never had to leave. During the day, slide the 12’-wide doors between the master bedroom and living room aside to enjoy an unrestricted panoramic ocean view from throughout the living area. At night, leave the lanai doors open in the oceanfront master bedroom and living room and be lulled to sleep by the ceaseless caress of the waves on the worn lava rocks below. Gentle ocean breezes keep you cool day and night whether snoozing on the lanai, entertaining friends in your oceanfront paradise or sleeping soundly in your king-size bed.

We are frequent visitors of the islands and this was one of our favorite stays. Well stocked with basic needs, very clean, and the VIEW! 10/10. We had no issues and instructions were very clear and easy understand. Look forward to coming back and staying!

It was a lovely stay. The addition of ac was nice. I missed the parking pass attachment before we left, but we got it figured out…but be sure to print your parking pass ahead of time. The location was fairly central for exploring that side of the island.

This property was everything we wanted and much more! Our family of 5 loved this condo. The highlight was definitely the view and falling asleep to the waves at night. Absolutely wonderful. From the porch we spotted whales and saw a sea turtle in the tide pools. We were pleasantly surprised to find coolers, chairs, an umbrella, boogie boards, snorkel gear, beach bags. All of these things made our beach days perfect! They also had sunscreen and bug spray available. I highly recommend staying here!?

This was the perfect spot for our first trip to the big island. We wanted to be oceanfront and the lanai of this property made it hard to tear ourselves away from the waves and surfers. Easy access to downtown Kailua-Kona, the great snorkeling spots down south (Captain Cook and 2-Step) and a reasonable drive (45 min) to the best sand beaches up north. Nicely updated and fully furnished unit, including AC (though we never needed it). The owner was easy to contact and very responsive. Highly recommend this condo.

Goodness. What a lovely stay we had. Would stay again. Everything we could possibly need was there. Picked up groceries. Did some meals there. Played board games at the table. Went to sleep with the sound of the waves. Da Poke Shack is on property and offered a great local lunch option and better pork than what we had at the luau. Plenty of parking spaces and ease of getting to other tourist attractions.

Great views! Nothing between the condo and ocean but a little grass. We saw whales, dolphins, monk seal, turtles, eels plus able to watch surfers all from the unit. One reason we choose the unit was the AC however we never turned it on. Leaving the screens open and having the ceiling fans provided all the cooling we needed. Unit is well stocked if you stay a week, staying longer may require you buy consumables. Street noise can be a problem for those staying in the front bedroom which is a bit small for two adults. Unit was clean but floors could have used a little more cleaning. This unit will be on our list for future visits.

The property was very clean, in a good location close to Kona-Kailua, and had an amazing view. A very comfortable overall stay for 6 days. The bed was very comfortable and the waves right outside the slider lulled us to sleep each night. We would definitely recommend this property again for anyone who's looking for several nights in Kona, but doesn't want to pay the exorbitant cost for a resort. The immediate area is generally quiet and located close to several public beaches. There are other really nice beaches within easy driving distance. We had a great time here and would definitely recommend again. The owner gave great instructions from appliance workings to places to see, & places to eat. Definitely a great place to stay for 2 or 4 people looking for a restful retreat on the big island.

Lovely place to stay while on vacation in Kona with the sound of the ocean waves and sunsets to share with loved ones. Mahalo to Mike and Nicklyn.

We love having the space and ability to cook, so hotel is not our choice. The condo was spacious with large patio with GREAT view. We watched the surfers, sunsets almost everyday. We ended but not cooking dinner, just breakfast on the lanai. Great location to explore that side of the island. Close to everything. Mike was great with info and communication. Check in process was easy.Few things need improvement: inside the drawers needs cleaning, bathroom needs new shower head. And extra bath mat will be nice, since it gets wet and if we forget to hang outside, it smells. Pool is ok - nice option for a late night swim.

This apartment has amazing ocean view! We had all our meals at the balcony to enjoy the view. The apartment is clean with all the appliances we needed for the stay. Enough parking spaces with cover. With elevator, easy to move our luggages. Definitely will come back if I visit big island again!

Can’t say enough good about our stay

We stayed for 8 nights and the property was beautiful. The condo had a great floorplan with the primary bedroom open to the ocean and a second bedroom/bathroom conveniently off the kitchen. The kitchen was very well equipped with appliances and spices, even some lovely unopened leftovers in the fridge when we arrived. Instructions from Mike prior to our visit were very helpful, and he was very responsive when we contacted him about a minor issue. The property is gorgeous, right on the ocean, and we could even watch green sea turtles from our lanai feeding in the tide pools just yards away. I highly recommend this condo for a stay in Kona!!!
