Upon entering the unit for the first time we were overcome with a smell which was a combination of sewage and perfume. That evening we went to turn on the A/C (only small unit above the bed) and it did not work. Pulled the plug and saw it and the outlet were burnt from arcing. (Come to find out later there is a switch for the A/C by the door).Also found the plug by the sink in the master was broken (pulled off the gang adaptor which fell apart and started working) and plug by kitchen sink nor working. Also did not have anything to wash dishes *no sponge or rag and no dishwasher detergent. Reported issues and bought plugin air fresheners for the sewage smell. Within a couple days we were notified a handyman would come out. Long and short of it2 days before end got diswashing pods, day before we left the toilet was reset taking care of the smell, electrical was never addressed.
Loved the location. You could hear the waves and wonderful view of the ocean.

Love it here!
The condo is in great location a little south of the busiest area of Kailua Kona bay. Less commercial but still very convenient. It has a great ocean/pool view. The condo is spacious with a sink in master bedroom which provides additional convenience. Checkin and checkout very easy. We enjoyed it very much.
Great location . A small condo complex which makes a nice relaxing quiet setting no loud music or partying. Kitchen is well stocked thanks for having containers to store left overs Beach towels chairs and a cooler. Clean,bed was comfy loved the heavy blinds to block out light at night.Would recommend to my friends
Perfect place to stay. Thecsunsets were gorgeous, and we had the best spot to watch. The mornings were just about a good, seeing the sun come up and watching surfers out before it was light enough to see. Just perfect!
We enjoyed our stay in this property, wish it had a hot tub for late night stargazing.
Great location on the beach
This condo had everything we needed and more! It was well stocked, had a good location, and was so enjoyable. The sun sets were beautiful to watch every night!
The location can’t be beat - close to Kona and right in the ocean with an ocean view. The unit itself is fine, nothing great or special beyond the location. Not a lot of privacy as it’s situated right along common areas at ground floor. Good array of kitchen equipment. The pool is nice.
Downsides/minor irritations: property management never responded to texts and calls (about possible early check-in). Also for an 8-day stay, we were given 1 roll of toilet paper, 1 kitchen garbage bag, and 1 bathroom garbage bag.
The condo had everything we needed. The view is wonderful. We watched whales from our deck every day. The bed is very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay there again!
Very nice place, will stay there again
We loved having coffee and breakfast while looking at and listening to the ocean from the lanai. Also a perfect spot to watch the sunset with a glass of wine.
We really loved our stay here. Although not right on the ocean we were so close we could see and and hear the surf. We enjoyed the lovely garden outside the living room and the screen windows at the bottom of the wall made the room feel airy and connected to the outside. The property was very well maintained.
Our one complaint, and it is minor, is that there is no full length mirror.

Absolutely loved our view of the ocean every day. Enjoyed coffee on the llanai and the pool too. Thank you. I would recommend.

We stayed at this property for five days in September ‘23 and it is exactly as shown on the website. The location is on the main road through Kona, which was extremely convenient. The condo has extras such as ice chests, chairs, beach mats and includes a full kitchen with all the necessities. On-site washers/dryers. Easy check-in and out. I highly recommend it and would stay here again.

We loved that this was not a big resort. It’s a great location right on the ocean with a small oceanfront pool. The waves are breaking right outside your door. Beautiful sunsets. Parking is right there-steps from the condo and the condo is shielded from the the road noise. We would stay here again for sure. Being a second home owner and a frequent traveler to Hawaii we do have a few suggestions.
- There is barely any place to hang things like towels and wet bathing suits. It would be super easy for you to add ample hooks in shower. The shower is certainly big enough.
- Also need more hooks in bathroom and bedroom. There is definitely wall space to do so and it’s a simple add.
- 2 luggage racks would be good since there are usually 2 people and two suitcases.
- Clean sticky appliances-most all the appliances we used were sticky and I had to clean them before using.
- The black fan was disgusting and totally covered in a thick layer of dust. I had to clean it before using.
- Mattress is terrible-not a huge investment to get a decent mattress. Try a Casper!!
- Spots on door mat inside front door are gross, making a bad first impression.
- Need soap dish by sink in bedroom and towel bar.
- Chair cushions outside dirty. Had to sit on a towel.
- One of the rocking chairs in living room seems pretty unstable
Good things:
- Kitchen well stocked with all the essentials.
- Appreciate foil, ziplocks, salt/pepper, teabags, coolers, beach mats, maps and guide books, pool towels.
- On-site property manager very nice.
Mahalo for a great time in Kona. We stayed for 5 nights before moving on to the Volcano House for 2 nights and then Waikoloa for six nights.

Well located and maintained condo. Property is small but has all required amenities. Amazing sea views right from the porch/lanai. Good for couples or small families.
Great location and condo! The apartment was cleaned as well as the property (except some dead cockroaches around the paths - probably because of insecticide). Also very quiet place, you only hear the waves and not the traffic from the road. We had a great stay!
Quiet and peaceful location which is exactly what we were looking for. We listened to the sound of the ocean waves and enjoyed the view. Kitchen is well equipped and we appreciated that.
The view was amazing. Nice quiet complex with onsite manager who is very helpful and friendly. The grounds were well kept and the pool is small but pristine. About a 1.5 mile walk to Kona downtown.
