Nice place and location. Met our needs.
We were very pleased with the stay. I never go into a rental with the highest expectations, so I won’t be disappointed. But there was nothing to disappoint here. It was outstanding and then some. I’d love to come back.
We have stayed in Kona many times. We chose this property based on the property photographs, price, and location within walking distance to Kona. Most everything anyone would need was available -- fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. We especially liked the PUR water filter in the refrigerator--did not need to purchase bottled water. The management company provided great communication and check in instructions. The unit was spacious and comfortable--cable TV, landline, and WIFI. We were aware from previous posts that parking was tight--it is. We stayed two weeks, November into December. The unit is north facing, and at this time of year, it was very dark inside, not at all like the bright photos. Also there is a lot of traffic noise from Kuakini Hwy behind the unit--at night we kept the bedroom slider closed and left the living room door opened to minimize noise. There is also AC, but we did not need it because of ample ceiling fans. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the "jungle foliage" view from the spacious lanai.

Everything you could need is here already. Clean, quiet, and lovely.
Great location. Walkable to restaurants and shopping. I know others complained about the parking spot being too narrow, but even though it is a bit small it is not as bad as others made it out to be. The unit was clean and well equipped. Communication was excellent.
Great condo, easy to walk to town. Very clean and had everything we needed for a great stay!
We did front-and-back bookend stays of our Hawaii trip here, with a week on the Hilo side in the middle. For sun and beach, Kona is definitely the side to visit! Unit is comfortable, although the parking spot is very tight - we had a Mustang and held our breaths every time we pulled in! Lanai is beautifully shady and private, and cool with two ceiling fans. Kailua-Kona waterfront is within easy walking distance. Property manager was quickly responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!
Great location, very quiet and clean condominium. The bed was VERY comfortable after a busy day of hiking, swimming, shopping and eating.
Recommendations: The Coffee Shack, On The Rocks, Cheeky Tiki (must try Mai Tai), Volcano National Park and the best shaved ice on island is in Hilo at KULA near the farmers market.
Beaches not to miss - 49 Black Sand Beach, snorkeling at Captain Cook Monument,
Green Sand Beach
We enjoyed our stay here. The unit was very clean and comfortable. Great shower, bed was comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked. Location was great. Almost across the street from Huggo's on the Rock so easy walk to the outdoor market and souvenir shops but because it faces the mountain, it was very private and quiet. Place is as shown in the photos except it has a new fridge. We didn't use the pool but it looked clean and lovely (as shown in the photos). Parking space is tight (we had a mid-sized car) but after a couple of days we got used to it. :) I would highly recommend this place for a couple.
This is a well appointed condo with everything one might need for a great stay n Kona. Its location is great, close to many restaurants and activities. We appreciated b the secure parking garage also.
