Perched just above the shoreline, this property offers an unforgettable immersion into the natural poetry of Hawaii. The rhythmic crash of surf marks Hawaain time--slowly replenishing the spirit. Each day, rain or shine, ends in a blaze of color as the sun sinks into the Pacific, gilding the sea in molten gold. Rainbows appear with near-daily regularity, arcing across the sky like whispered promises, while sea turtles drift below and fishing boats hum up and down the coast, “mowing the lawn” in slow, meditative lines. Traditional waʻa glide past, paddles slicing in synchronized grace — a living tribute to Hawaiian heritage.The air is rich with salt and the heady sweetness of plumeria, a sensory balm that lingers long after sunset. Some great snorkeling coves and swimming beaches are a short commute away, plus a lively collection of shops and shave ice stands where flavors bloom like tropical flowers.What truly elevates the stay is Jim, the owner — a host of uncommon generosity and warmth. He is attentive without intrusion, always ready with insightful recommendations or fascinating island lore, should you ask. His care is evident in every detail. Make sure you ask him about island trivia.This is not simply a place to stay, but one to feel, to breathe in, and to remember. A rare haven where land, sea, and spirit converge in quiet harmony.

Five stars on everything. This property has perfect views and great breezes on the lanai. Beautiful sunset views. They don’t have the cheap plastic wicker furniture that other units I’ve stayed in at the Kona Reef have switched to. I can sit for hours and just enjoy the views without needing a chiropractor. The hosts are so helpful if you have any problems. We didn’t have any problems, just a few questions that they were quick to answer. I hope I get to go many more times

The four of us had a wonderful 6 night stay. Jim was a great communicator and easy to reach with our questions. The condo had everything we needed and more. The views are absolutely amazing. The condo is just a little dated but it’s clean, comfortable and very affordable for what you get. We’ve stayed at several units in Kona and this is for sure our new favorite.

My family of four stayed at this Kona property during Christmas week, 2024. This condo is a wonderful two bedroom unit, facing the ocean. We spent many hours on the lanai, enjoying incredibile views of the ocean. The complex is quiet and peaceful, even though it is a short walk from shops and restaurants in downtown Kailua-Kona. The complex also has a pool (facing the ocean) and ample parking. The unit was well stocked with essentials, and the owner provided beach towels, chairs, toys, etc that we could use during our stay. I have stayed at many Vrbo properties in past. This unit was definitely one of my favorites. It is the first one where I thought the unit was actually nicer than the pictures. And by far, this unit has the best and most involved owner. He sent us all the information we needed for check-in and parking before we arrived, he answered every email or text promptly, and provided a wealth of information on local attractions Hawaii trivia. We loved our stay, and highly recommend this unit.

Great property! The condo was well taken care of and had amazing views out every window. James and Nancy are terrific hosts and were very responsive. Would be my first choice if I needed a 2 bedroom again.

The view from the lanai was so beautiful, we never wanted to leave! We really appreciated the comfy lounge chairs and made good use of them watching the dolphins and surfers all day long. Beds were extremely comfortable and the unit has all you would need for a trip to the beach to preparing meals in the fully stocked kitchen. Yes, the unit has not been updated but everything was in excellent repair and very clean and and comfortable and that is all that mattered to us! As amazing as this unit was the best part of this rental were the owners Jim and Nancy. Their communication with us was the best we have ever encountered in all our years of renting. Their obvious dedication to ensuring our stay was perfect was so appreciated and we loved the mid stay information email we received from them-so fun! Thank you for an awesome stay, we will be back!

Communication with the host was excellent. He provided email information about the unit, things to do, restaurants, etc. He provided up-to-date information about the property on the day we arrived. The location was wonderful. Every morning we were greeted by at least half a dozen surfers and a yoga class. Check in process was good, but the instructions indicate to look for blue roof property. We were arriving at night; ( informed host of this) and the street lights are not bright enough to see to color of the roof, or the Kona Reef sign. The condo, a corner unit had nice windows. The interior is not updated. The kitchen cabinets were worn and missing a handle (above the fridge). The kitchen sink faucet was glued permanently to the left side of the sink, making the rinsing of dishes and glasses on the right side almost impossible. The spray button on the faucet was missing. The refrigerator had items left by the prior guest. The refrigerator was not cleaned and empty prior to our arrival. There were food and drink items left in the fridge; including open butter, jam and condiments. We have rented at least 10 properties in the past and there was never any items left in the fridge. We did not remove them. The bathroom cabinets were also quite dated and there was no place to hang the hand-towel in the primary. The box on the balcony deflected the air conditioner hot air from condenser onto us.

We had a wonderful time at this condo. It was the best place, great views and proximity to everything was perfect. Everything you need is there, just unpack and start relaxing. Thanks Jim and Nancy for sharing A-31 with us, we will definitely be back!!

Great location right on the water. Tremendous views up and down the coast and of small next door beach. Walking distance to downtown shops, bars and restaurants. Plenty to do on the island if you rent a car to get to beaches, hiking and much more. Stayed here two years in a row. A place to make memories.

We absolutely loved the condo, and as so many others - the lanai, where we spent hours watching the waves, surfers, spotting fish and turtles. It is very well equipped (including the kitchen, beach towels, beach equipment) and the location is excellent, within walking distance to numerous restaurants and shops. Jim has been an amazing host, offering accommodations if needed and sharing extensive guidance to local attractions and restaurants. All of that has been very helpful and we truly enjoyed our stay in Kona!

Perfect location with stunning view of Heeia Bay (Honl's Beach) and magical Kona Sunsets. Mornings, afternoons, evenings on the lanai watching body boarders, surfers, paddlers, and even spinner dolphins. Walk into town. Comfortable furnishings and beds. Easy peasy check-in.
Wonderful communication with delightful owner-manager. Why would you not choose this place? I know we will be back! Mahalo!

We absolutely loved our stay in the condo! The lanai was exceptional, and we spent many hours lounging, watching the ocean and enjoying the surfers and wildlife. The unit had plenty of room with all the extras needed to make our vacation comfortable and fun. Air conditioning was quiet and worked well. Best of all was the wonderful communication and information from the hosts. They really went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of and had a great vacation. Thanks for being such great hosts and providing such a wonderful place! We hope to come back soon.
