This condo is right on the water & the views are stunning. We couldnt get enough of them. Comfortable sofa & comfortable bed. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, glasses & all sorts of utensils. All we had to buy was food. Several restaurants & stores are within walking distance. The only negative was a hiccup with the AC which was addressed immediately. If you want a relaxing place to stay in PARADISE with incredible views, Dans condo is your ticket.
Superb rental. Have been to HI multiple times and a frequent VRBO user. Property was as advertised... excellent unencumbered view and the sound waves below. Beach equipment was excellent which we don’t typically find. Communications were pleasant and the owner was very accommodating. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great Big Island experience!
The codo is right on the water. Excellent views and location. Everything you need is in the condo. We have stayed here in the past and plan to do so again.
Absolutely amazing property. Location and view was incredible. Location to shops was wonderful. Easy to walk to shops and restaurants.
Neat & clean, oceanfront, nice pool & hot tub available, public beach next door, covered parking, and walking distance to numerous restaurants; what’s not to love about this place? The owners and handyman are extremely responsive and the neighbors are quiet.
We stayed here twice in 2 weeks. It was a perfect small condo with everything provided even a welcome basket our second visit! The VIEW is STUNNING! Watching the waves, maybe a few surfers in the mornings on the lanai is a great way to enjoy breakfast with a cup of coffee - Hawaii at the best. Honyl Beach is next door and where Wake boarding was invented. Everything was in the condo and the little things like nail polish remover was in cabinets. So thoughtful. Great beach supplies: 2 new chairs, umbrella and wake boards!! We would stay here again.
This was our 8th trip to Hawaii, but our first trip to the Big Island and we loved it. Kailua - Kona definitely had the Lahaina vibe to it which we had been missing. Being able to easily walk to Huggos for a nice dinner, Huggos on the Beach for happy hour drinks and casual dining, shopping and a nice little beach was super convenient. The view from the lanai overlooking the black lava rock coastline was amazing. It was perfect for relaxing mornings watching sunlit waves and gorgeous sunsets in the evening. We explored, snorkeled, shop and ate all over the island and were lucky to make it over to the Kilaeau while it was erupting which was a super rare/special experience. We will return to the Big Island and this unit for sure. Thanks Dan and Jana for sharing your piece of paradise.
The view will grab your attention as you walk in. The ocean is right there! Next you realize how wonderful the Hawaiian furniture is and how clean the condo is. I’ve rented plenty of Vrbo condos and this was the cleanest ever. We love to cook and were quite pleased with the kitchen. The bed is comfortable and the walk in shower is nice. One week wasn’t enough.
It had everything we could ask for! Amazing ocean view, walking to town, well maintained, comfortable bed. Nice pool, and bar b que area. This place won’t disappoint!
Property was perfect for two people. The view from the lanai was stunning for our morning coffee and evening relaxing. The water is tiffany blue as it breaks against the lava rocks. The condo had everything you need. We did not find it lacking in any way. The location was convenient also..clean and comfortable. We would not hesitate to rebook if we come back to the Big Island.
Could have used better instructions for the television. Everything else was excellent
We had a wonderful week here. We found the condo clean and well stocked. The balcony is a great spot to enjoy the ocean and listen to the roar of the waves. Downtown Kona is a short walk away, so it’s easy to get to shops and restaurants. We really appreciated that the bed is one of the most comfortable we’ve found in a vacation rental. The comfort of the living furniture was alright, but not great - but I’m picky due to my back issues. The owner, Dan, was very easy to communicate with. Overall, I recommend this condo and would stay again.
A great amenity is the sun shade on the lanai. It extends the amount of time to comfortably enjoy the afternoon and enjoy sound of the ocean waves.

Loved the roar of the ocean! Great location near restaurants and shops. Condo super clean and has everything required for a great stay—whether cooking a nice meal or heading to the beach.
We have stayed here the last few years and this did not disappoint. Great views of the ocean and a short walk into town.
Condo was spotless when we arrived. Kitchen was well equipped, had everything we needed. Less than a block from downtown Kona shopping and restaurant area. No worries about parking, just walk to town. Already reserved this unit for Dec 2025.
There are many places to stay in Kailua, but time after time, we have chosen this one. To us, it is just perfect. Dan, our host is easy to reach and is very kind.. There is new furniture in the living room! There is a lovely walk in shower with grab bars, and the bed is very comfortable. the whole unit is exceptionally clean and perfectly stocked.It's easy to be up early if you are on coast time, and there is nothing that we would rather do than sit outside in the comfortable chairs that are high enough to see over the rail, sip coffee, and watch the dawn come over the ocean,. Unless of coarse its sitting with something cold and delicious while the sun sets into the ocean right out in front.
Lovely view and good location.
This was a great location and the condo was just as advertised. The owner and property manager were very responsive to any questions we had.
This is a lovely oceanfront condo located within easy walking distance to town. It is very nicely decorated and comfortable, with brand-new furniture in the living room. The most amazing feature, though, is the large lanai, with a spectacular and expansive view of the ocean. Watching the beautiful sunsets each night with a glass of wine was wonderful and relaxing. We also really appreciated the ceiling fan and pull-down screen on the lanai, which made it very enjoyable even though it was quite warm out.
The condo also has a nice kitchen with everything you need for preparing meals. We really enjoyed the Kona coffee provided by the hosts, which was a very nice touch.
We would definitely stay here again, and really appreciated Dan's hospitality. Mahalo!
This unit is amazing. Lots of special touches. A gorgeous view. A very quiet clean building. It’s a short walk to shopping and restaurants too. We will definitely stay here again if we ever get to come back.
Beautiful setting walking distance to town and to great restaurant Huggo’s Sunsets were amazing
Condo was absolutely clean and everything you would need was there including onolicious coffee in the morning with breathtaking views off the balcony especially the magnificent sunsets daily setting into the ocean. Will definitely be staying there again. Aloha from Maui!!
The condo was even better than the pictures. Very spacious with all new furniture. Our host thought of every detail to make sure we had all that we needed. A beautiful location.Easy to get around to shops, dining and historical areas.
We loved every minute!

We were very impressed with this condo. Very clean, everything we need was available, the view is fantastic. We plan to stay again.
Love our stays at Kona Reef. The location is perfect for access to all Kona has to offer. This unit has been recently updated and the view can’t be beat. Great host! Fruit basket and coffee are a very nice touch!
The stay here exceeded our expectations. This was our first time visiting HI. The condo was very well taken care of, clean, and had the most amazing sunset views from the patio. We were welcomed with a treat of macadamia nut chocolates and Kona coffee. The unit had extra beach towels to use and the washer and dryer was put to good use. The grounds are well taken care of and they had tenets cooking on the grills in the pool area nightly. The location is a short walk into town with access to plenty of shops, restaurants, and bars. We were close enough to even walk to Kona Brewery. Loved the location and stay. The contact person was easy to get ahold of on exit to let them know we were checking out. I would highly recommend this stay to anyone looking at the Kona area.
This was a wonderful stay. The unit was everything i had hoped for and exactly like advertised. The location was perfect. Waking up and going out to the balcony with sunshine and crashing waves was such a treat. The grounds are very well maintained and everyone was so friendly. Loved the shower and the amenities were a plus, really soft water very nice...A big thank you to the owners for the gift basket and birthday card how very thoughtful. I highly recommend this condo. 10 stars if there is such an acknowledgement.
