Wonderful stay on the Big Island! Condo is beautiful with breathtaking views! Exactly as pictured! Easy check in! We will be back!
Outstanding views at a great location. We were able to prepare and eat our meals at the condo. We enjoyed much needed family time with our adult children.
Everything about our stay went well - communication with Bob was on time and very helpful. Condo was clean and very well equipped for travelers with items like beach towels and snorkel gear. Location was perfect - a few blocks away from all of the hustle and bustle of downtown Kona but minutes from boat launches for snorkeling. We loved the quietness and the views from the lanai were great - nothing beats breakfast watching local surfers and stunning sunsets!
This condo really is great. It has everything you could want. We tend to cook a lot when we stay in a rental and we found everything we needed in the well stocked kitchen. The bed was comfortable and I love the ceiling fans. We ate every meal on the lanai and that was our go to place in the mornings and evenings. The condo is exactly 2 miles from the Coconut Grove Market, and only a 1/2 mile from the Ali'i Marketplace. I ran and walked down Ali'i Road daily for one reason or another. On-site parking and laundry in the unit are also big pluses! Bob was wonderful to deal with and very responsive.
The only negative for me was the bathmats. Please invest in some new ones. I couldn't tell if they really hadn't been washed or are well used and stained. This is easily fixable though and would not preclude me from recommending this great place. We had an issue getting in (which apparently was user error on our part). We didn't realize that you turn the key and push the door open at the same time, so Bob came and rescued us so we could get in. Once that mystery was solved, everything was great. Hopefully that pro-tip saves you the call.
the unit showed a lack of normal maintenance and needed several repairs the unit was overvalued based on other upgraded units we've stayed in at Kona Bali kai
Loved our stay in this condo! It was very comfortable and well stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. The view from the lanai was awesome and I spent every morning enjoying it while eating my breakfast! You are right on top of the ocean! The location is fantastic with restaurants, grocery stores and shops nearby. It was centrally located on the island so all points of interest were never more the 2 hours away! Bob, the owner, was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions I had. I highly recommend this condo and would stay there again!
Bob's place was awesome. Close to town, great beach access, and beautiful sunsets!
Our family (including sons 16 and 20) spent a week here. It was close to everything and a really great base of operations (you can get anywhere on the big island within 2 hours). The view from the lanai was incredible - we spent a lot of time sitting out there, reading and watching the surfers. Loved the kitchen - better stocked than any others I have stayed in. Everything was clean and easily accessible. It was very quiet, even though there seemed to be plenty of people staying there. Bob is great - very timely in his response to email. Definitely recommend!
Fabulous view of the ocean. Could sit all day and watch surfers and the wildlife in the rock pools on the seashore.
Apt is well stocked with everything you’d need, from snorkeling gear, beach stuff and little things left over from other tourists like sunblock, after sun etc. There were family board games and an old binder full of info of places of interest to visit and good eateries.
The host was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions that I had.
Definitely recommend, would stay again if I were to come back to the Big Island.
New place and beautiful view of ocean and sunsets.
The lanai is the highlight of this property - wonderful sunsets and views. We were lucky to watch surfers several days. Bob is extremely responsive and helpful. Also enjoyed the beach chairs and convenient washer/dryer. Thank you.
Bob’s condo was wonderful, the location is fantastic, very easy to get to and the views… the views are breathtaking
Easy access to town and restaurants and a great place to relax at the end of a busy day of sightseeing! Included all the beach toys too big or too heavy to pack - towels, boogey boards, snorkel equipment, etc. We had fun just outside the door - walking around the tide pools, enjoying the sunsets and watching turtles and surfers. The information in the room from the owner took us to some wonderful snorkeling spots! Awesome vacation!

We had a great experience at Bob’s condo. He was very easy to communicate with. We had everything we needed and the view to the beach was stunning! We were visiting for the Ironman WC and the condo is on the run course which, was perfect for my family to cheer and stay comfortable.

the owner was very responsive. Great view and location. the kitchen has all you may need. the A/C worked great. The decor is a little dated and the bathrooms need to be updated.

Loved our stay in this unit. Communications with the owner were great. The condo is well equipped, comfortable and the view from the lanai is stunning especially at sunset.
Great place for a relaxing oceanfront stay. Very clean, kitchen well-appointed, bed very comfortable, internet very fast. The multiple ceiling fans were fine for all but the most hot/humid summer days and the AC, when needed, was quite welcome. Would definitely stay here again!
Great property!! The view is awesome and parking was always easy. Right near the main attractions. Communication was great, and check-in and out easy. Couldn't ask for a better vacation rental.
Great location, great communication with the owners and most of all the best sunsets I’ve seen yet. Even when overcast and cloudy we enjoyed the sunsets. Will stay here again if we come back to the big island. Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay at this condo and would definitely stay here again if we return to the island. As others have said, the views from the large lanai are amazing. We barely left the lanai the entire 10 days we were there. The best stocked kitchen we’ve ever had at a rental. I strongly recommend this property if visiting the area. Thank you, Bob, for a wonderful stay!

Amazing views from the Lanai in this comfortable nicely updated top floor condo. The condo is well cared for, and we had a wonderful stay. The kitchen was well equipped and the communal barbecues were great. A very special place! We would love to come back!
