Beautiful view loved leaving windows open at. Night to here the waves and the beach was just steps away!

You can’t get closer to the water than this clean, lovely townhouse. We loved the lanai for breakfast and afternoon readings sessions. The kitchen is full equipped and the air conditioning was powerful for the 90-degree days in the middle of our stay.

Start to finish our stay was exactly what we hoped for during our first visit to the big island. The rental process, check-in & check-out went smoothly. The townhouse was centrally located to all the venues we wanted to visit. Plenty of recommendations on the rental app. Plenty of room for our party of four. Comfortable beds and bedding. All the amenities we needed. Common areas were great with the pool, tennis/pickle ball courts, covered eating and ping pong table. Reserved parking spot and easy access to the ocean to search tidal pools in the morning. Definitely recommend if you want to be close to Kona without being in the middle of congestion/traffic. Made for a very relaxing stay.

We rent homes and condos a couple of times every year for the past 20 years or more, so experiences have been extensive from iffy to wonderful. This condo was up in the upper level for sure! Best in ocean views from the Lani and the MBR. Many little niceties were furnished as well, such as beach chairs and towels, an ice cooler with a large ice pack in the freezer to use. Everything was clean, operable and appeared well maintained. My cudo’s to the owners and the management and my thanks. We stayed with another couple in this unit and two other couples rented a similar condo a few doors away. Their comments was that they were going to return here again, but wanted me to give them the rental info for our condo for their next visit. That says it all there. My only less than positive comment is that the kitchen is not always as important to some renters as me, but I prefer preparing meals in to always eating out. While it was well stocked with cooking and serving utensils, it lacked in simple things like salt/pepper, spices and some basic condiments. A little stale coffee (Folgers, yuk) was there when we arrived. Possibly some starter packs of a nice Kona Coffee section to kick off the settle in period for later arrivals would be nice.

The location is great. Ocean front with beautiful view out master bedroom.
Wildlife right outside your door. From the lanai we saw several kinds of birds, an otter, several mongooses, sea turtles, and yellow tangs swimming in the surf. Now I know why Hawaii is called The Golden Coast. Add unbelievable sunsets and a cozy townhouse with all of the amenities and you have your vacation getaway.

Keauhou Kona Surf & Racquet is an excellent location from which to explore the Big Island. The townhome is walking distance from one of the best snorkeling beaches on the island as well as a restaurants and shopping. Great two bedroom town home with direct view of the ocean and beach. Townhome has everything you need for your beach days (chairs, umbrella, etc.) and the community offers a great pool and outdoor grills. The community is beautiful, and very well cared for. Check in and out was easy and management was very responsive. Made for a great stay!
Stunning ocean view from the master bedroom upstairs. Was really happy to find 3 boogie boards, an umbrella and chairs, and games, and a cooler! Well stocked kitchen. We could cut through the bushes and the ocean was right there (otherwise just walk around the end of the building)!! Wonderful sound of the ocean each night. Plenty of fans. This unit does not have AC. It was fine without it while we were there (May 24th to June 2nd). The unit is close enough to town, though you will need to have a car. We used the pool, ping pong table and barbecue grills. Make sure to do the night snorkel with manta rays. My second time doing it, and it was incredible as the first time. We used Sea Paradise. My 6 year granddaughter did the snorkel with the manta rays!! The crew was very kind to her.
I truly can’t think of anything that was missing!

Arrival is easy, communication by the property manager is excellent. Unit is in a great, oceanfront location with a nice beach just steps away. The unit is fully outfitted including beach chairs and cooler! Appliances are newer, but the unit is very dated and a bit shabby. There are broken floor tiles and grout in the upstairs bathroom. The kitchen counter tile grout is stained so looks dirty. All the wood trim on the counters needs to be refinished. We like the convenience of the nearby shopping center and town in a quick 15 minute drive. Overall we would recommend with caveats.

Sweet townhouse is just steps from the surf. Wonderful views from the big slider in main living area and out to the lanai, and from master bedroom. Management is tops - sent repairman within 30 minutes when refrigerator went down. Complex has clean pool area and nice tennis courts. This side of the complex is quiet. Kitchen has been thoughtfully outfitted for casual cooking. (though could use some new glassware)Enjoyed our stay very much!

This was our first visit to Kona after a brief stop on a cruise ship years ago. What a delightful perfectly located unit! Steps from one of the best snorkeling spots in the area. Amazing marine life along a quiet beach. The club amenities were nice and we BBQ’d several times. Quiet with the roaring surf right there!!! We will be back.

I stayed in another unit in the building next door last year. This surf club location is excellent, away from the noise of town but easy access to Kailua and all parts of Kona side.
This unit was in good shape except perhaps for the floor. The orange tiles in the kitchen/patio were slick in parts and sticky in others. I mostly wore socks while there and they did not wash clean, stained with dots of reddish orange. The carpet is also in need of a professional clean or replace. That aside, everything else was SPOTLESS.
We stayed in the maser bedroom with the gorgeous view of the water. The King bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room. Surf was high when we were there and thus a bit noisy at night but not enough to make us move to the back bedroom. Ocean was why we were there.
The kitchen was well stocked with good quality items and everything we needed. Abundant towels (we washed the extra we used) were nice including beach towels. Having a beach umbrella and boogie boards was awesome - although one board was broken in the middle it was still useful for surf"play". (past guest must not have noted).
Bugs (normal for the area) were happily minimal and seemed to be upstairs - away from kitchen. Regular maintenance was scheduled for after our stay so management does well in this regard.
Highly recommend this and the other Knutson units in these buildings facing the water from such a wonderful, close location.
Maholo.

This place is in a great location with excellent views. The only problems were the no a/c, which we knew in advance, and we could never get the wifi to work. The tv went out the last day, but you're not there to watch tv.
