This spacious 2-bdrm condo was perfect for our 10-day trip to Kona. It was clean, well-appointed and well maintained. And its location! To be any closer to the water, we'd have to be on a boat! The large furnished balcony was like an extra room, from which we could enjoy morning coffee and stunning sunsets. Although not air conditioned, there were multiple ceiling fans and a massive floor fan that kept things cool.Overall this is a fantastic home base for a trip to Kailua-Kona.
The owners were super helpful snd the property was great! Beautiful views of the ocean, and the sound of the waves put us to sleep each night. I highly recommend staying at this property. You’ll love it!
This condo is on the rocks right over the water, with big glass doors with screens so you can have an ocean breeze and listen to the waves all night. Everything was clean and well-maintained, and the kitchen was stocked with spices and oils, so it was easy to cook without purchasing too many items. There are moray eels in the tide pools on the rocks. We loved it!
We had a lovely stay! Beautiful lanai to spend hours on in the early morning waiting for everyone else to wake up (4 hour time difference). Had everything we needed. The pool was wonderful and the location was perfect for us as we like being far enough away from the main area's hustle and bustle but close enough for quick trips when needed. Would definitely stay again!
Beautiful place, loved the view and cleanliness!
Cannot beat location, right on the ocean. Condo has everything you need. Thoughtful owners, highly recommend
Oceanfront condo that is well taken care of! Enjoyed listening to the waves and being right by the ocean. This year we didn’t make it to the pool but enjoyed the lanai for reading and whale watching! Mahalo!!
We loved our stay in Joseph and Monika's condo. 2 weeks in Kona and everything was as advertised, a true 5 star experience. Can'r wait to come back.
I still can’t believe the view from this condo is real. We were lucky to stay there during winter swells, watching the waves pounding the rocks. The place is neat and tidy. There’s some swim and beach materials (umbrella, cooler, boards) and the location is close to town.
Being "right on the ocean" was amazing. The sound of the waves and being able to see whales from the deck is surreal. We will book again!
My family and I just enjoyed a 9 night stay at this property.Everything was just as advertised, the place was immaculate well stocked excellent communication from the owners as well as beautiful views from the Lanai! We took full advantage of the beach supplies that were provided for our days at the beach.We have visited all of the islands and hands down this was the best condo we have stayed at when looking at overall cost ,accommodations and location. We Will definitely be back !
It was a great condo for a 2 week vacation. The view on the balcony was amazing! Thank you again
We were very happy with the property! Great layout and location. We loved the ocean breeze and sleeping to the sound of the waves. The owner had great communication and kept us updated on anything that may have impacted our stay (normal unit and property maintenance). I highly recommend booking this property!
Fourth of July in Kona!
Another visit to the Big Island and another perfect stay here at this exceptional property! I spent 8 amazing nights here and it was spectacular.
The property itself is perfect.
It’s on the third floor and right on the beach. Listening to the waves all day and feeling the breeze is magical. I have stayed here before. And I always arrive and it is spotless and welcoming and I feel at home. Even the parking spot is perfect!!!
I hope to return AGAIN I would never stay anywhere else!
This place was perfect for my family. Great location, clean, comfortable, and as good of a view from the lanai as one could ask for. Stayed the perfect temperature day and night. Would recommend to just about anyone.

This is the cleanest condo we have rented and we have been visiting Hawaii for decades. The maintenance is kept up and the remodeling is current. The condo is well stocked with more than we could have imagined.
We enjoyed all of the tourist attractions years ago so we visit to relax at the oceans edge and this condo is right at the edge. We listened to the ocean during the day and fell asleep by it at night. Our stay was from April 22 - May 6, 2024, which is the end of whale season. We were fortunate to see a young whale swim right in front of the condo.
The owners were always available to speak too. They are good listeners, they are honest, and they have integrity. We could not have asked for better owners and a more beautiful and comfortable condo. It felt like home.
I read every review before we rented and every single review is positive. There is not one negative remark and we understand why after staying at Joseph and Monikas Condo.
This was the cleanest rental that we have ever stayed in - great location and great views
Beautiful location! The lanai is quite large and is a lovely place to sit watching the waves. The kitchen had everything we needed and is updated - the unit overall is very light and bright. It was nice to have access to beach towels, cooler, chairs and umbrella. We’ve always loved the Alii Villas complex - many of the units are resident-occupied so it has a home-like feel. It has a good pool, well-maintained gardens, and ocean-front access to climb on the rocks or just watch the sunset. We would not hesitate to return!
Very nice place with a great view of the ocean. Did see whales from the balcony. Vert well appointed - chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, coolers, as well as a well-stocked kitchen. Clean and comfortable. No air conditioning but cools off with the windows open. Close to all the restaurants and shops. Highly recommend this condo.
The view lanai is easily the most fabulous element of this condo! It was spectacular. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen which included condiments and spices. A great lodging option.
This condo is just as advertised. We enjoyed a great week in Kona right on the ocean. 15 minute walk into town. Everything was perfect.
Stayed at this condo for 12 days with my daughter and my best friend. Location was great. Lovely view out of the lanai, especially for sunset. Could see whales from the lanai as well. Loved the convenience of the reserved parking spot. Condo was very comfortable and well stocked for the kitchen and for the beach. (Was there a pizza pan somewhere we couldn't find?) Only thing we had to buy was more TP. There were very few washclothes for showering, but we always bring extra in case of this. It's made very clear in the listing that there is no elevator and no AC. The breezes keep the place cool and the no elevator wasn't an issue (except when bringing our luggage up on arrival.) :) We would definitely stay here again.
We enjoyed our 5-night stay in Ali'i Villas. The location provides easy driving or walking access to Kona and it's a great location for traveling south. The complex is quiet and the unit had a well-equipped kitchen and loads of water toys (snorkel sets, pool noodles, coolers, boogie boards, beach towels, and chairs). The lanai was a relaxing place for meals or watching the tide. The washer/dryer worked great. The bedroom with twin beds has louvered glass windows, so it was not as quiet as the main bedroom, but the only sound was the crashing waves.
The snorkeling was great next to the Pu'uhonua o Honanaunau Park and at Kahalu'u Beach Park; there was a wide variety of fish at both locations. The surf was too rough to snorkel off Napo'apo'o Beach, but the drive there was gorgeous.
I love Alii Villas and have stayed at more than one condo over the years. This was a well appointed condo with a fantastic lanai right on the waters edge. I stayed there by myself for 2-3 weeks and was very comfortable and content and had everything I needed nearby. In addition, they had great supplies for the kitchen, cleaning and laundry and it was very convenient. My husband and teenage daughter joined for 2 weeks and had a blast. The boogie boards and snorkeling equipment in their "activity closet" went a long way for the teenager and my husband loved the place. Very clean and nicely decorated. High recommendation! Very gracious and accommodating host. Thank you!
