The location, cleanliness, and communication were all excellent. It was a cozy place to stay and we will keep this on our list of places when we go again!
You cannot get much closer to the wild surf than at Kona Surf. The pool and BarBQ area are a special feature. The condo has everything you'll need for a good time in Kailua Kona Town. The hosts are most accommodating as well.
Clean! New furniture and A/C . Everything works good
Just outside of Kona Village but walkable distance. Beautiful property with all the accommodations you may need. Superb patio area facing west for those unbeatable sunsets 🌅. Nice pool overlooking the ocean; no (sand) beach bordering the lot however - lava rocks only (this is Big Island).
Property was clean, well equipped with everything we could have wanted. (Kitchen was superb, towels, toiletries, snorkel gear, coolers). It was perfect location, perfect in size for a two person stay. 10/10 would book again on my next big island trip!
My husband and I had an amazing time during our stay everything was easy to access, very well cleaned, and the location of the rental was perfect!
we loved the home like feeling coming back after adventuring for the day, would visit again in the future.
We enjoyed our time at Kona Shores. The unit is cosy and well stocked with dishes , spices and condiments. There was a small issue with a noise from condos water heater but no issues with water itself. Owners are great to deal with .
Arriving at the property had us a bit worried as the condo complex is on the main street going into Kona Village and the condo is a corner unit on the first floor. But we were pleasantly surprised by how quiet it was. The unit is small but very functional: The kitchen is well stocked with basic cooking supplies; the bed very comfortable; ample bathroom supplies; and beach gear, including snorkeling and boogie board. The pool is lovely overlooking the ocean. From the patio, you can see the ocean and get a view of the sunset. The owners gave good entry directions and were quick to respond. We recommend this property.
The condo was nice, the value for the cost was good, had a fully equipped kitchen with condiments and basic spices in the kitchen which was a bonus. Additional seating in the living room such as an upholstered chair or loveseat would be nice, only a hideabed/couch was not enough seating and not that comfortable. The only other seating was a high kitchen stool. The lanai was ok, looked over a high hedge over the parking lot. The pool area was wonderful, overlooking the ocean. There was only one briquette bbq in the common area near the pool which was disappointing. Not easy to bbq, had to bring your own briquettes and starter. No one used it in the entire stay we were there. The complex has gas, gas barbecues would be much easier. The owners were great to deal with, arranged for us to get new beach chairs as there was only one broken one, and they provided good information on the area. The walk to town was further than we expected, 20 plus minutes, but the free trolley was great, but be warned it is often full when cruise ships were in port. There is no other bus service on Ali’i Drive, only the trolley. One an hour. Overall we were very happy with our stay here.
