This place is worth the view! The lanai looks right over the ocean and has patio seating where you can enjoy a meal or just sit outside as the sun sets. If you're looking for a place to stay in Kailua-Kona with a beach front view, this place is great!A couple of notes to keep in mind—the condo has a nice, small kitchen where guests can cook their meals.We found parking to be easy—just have to be sure to follow the parking permit instructions.The host also provided us with some beach chairs and snorkel gear—lots of places to snorkel on the Big Island.The condo itself is older—there are signs that the space has been used well.There isn't AC. This condo, like many others in Hawaii, rely heavily on the trade winds. If you're coming during the warmer months, expect the condo to be warm, even at night. The host provided an upright fan for the bedroom, but the bedroom will still be hot during warmer evenings. You can keep the front screen door open along with the lanai door to help keep the temperature at bay, but we did get really hot during our stay—it's just a part of the Hawaii condo experience. If things get too warm, the complex has a pool area to cool off, or you can find a beach to cool off at.Where the condo is on Ali'i Drive, we really enjoyed the taco stand that's right down the stairs and a 30-second walk down the road. While we didn't get to enjoy the poke place in the complex, many people have said the place is good!

The deck and view were phenomenal. Open the sliders and the sea is right there in all its glory with binoculars included to help you watch for birds and whales. Also the interior space is quite large for the rate and did include a washer, dryer and dish washer. The downside is that the bedroom is on the street side of the condo and REALLY loud with traffic all night and lights shining into the space despite the mini blinds. Also hot and humid in May with no central air or dehumidifier. We wound up sleeping in the living room which was neither comfortable nor practical. Also the little things like toilet paper and body soap were missing. Toiletries and cooking supplies limited to what was left by other renters. So view, location, and cleanliness great but not so solid with creature comforts.

The view from the lanai was amazing. We enjoyed sitting outside and listening to the waves. We also saw whales, sharks and turtles while we were out there; the view was better than advertised, if that's possible. We also loved falling to sleep to the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks. The condo had everything we needed and was lovely.

Edgar is a wonderful host! The condo is an older condo, not far from Kona town. The view from the lanai is wonderful. Whales spotted most days. It’s a little schlep from the elevator to the condo, but once you’re in, it’s 3 flights for a shorter path from the garage.The bed is comfortable, and good fans throughout. Ali drive can be noisy in the evening, but earplugs help with that. Da Poke Shack is part of the complex. Best Poke and Kailua pork plates around.

The condo was very nice, lani was beautiful with great views and comfortable lounge chairs, although the unit was a little dated it was very clean. The main 2 reason for 4 stars are: 1) the bedroom is on the street side and there is quite a bit of traffic noise and 2) the notes should have included a facility map including directions from the elevator. We got there late due to a rental car snafu and did not know there was an elevator. Humping bags up 4 floors after flying all day was not fun only to find out in the morning there was an elevator.

The ocean waves crashing captivated as soon as we walked into the condo! We opened the sliding door to the lanai and I parked myself there for almost the entire stay. We had everything needed to fix meals and enjoyed all meals and coffe on the lanai… just a wonderful experience. I loved the HI decor and HI artwork in the condo and nice touches of aloe cucumber lotion was really appreciated. Parking and elevator was easy. My husband snorkeled almost every day, making use of our host’s recommendations. We went to the Standing Stone Church next door which was great! Enjoyed this relaxing vacation so much and hope we can return.

The ocean front view was amazing. Unfortunately, the overwhelming number of German roaches spoilt our stay. I did contact the owner, who never apologized. He was unwilling to get a professional out asap to treat the unit. My husband does pest control, and roach motels do nothing with German roaches. However, someone is scheduled to come out now we are leaving. There was no where available for us to move to on short notice. VRBO’s “guarantee” didn’t help either. I am disabled and we chose this location because of that. The unit itself has a great view, but the furniture is worn and the bathroom shower has rust spots and chips. The pool was supposed to be heated- it wasn’t. The washer dryer were very loud. The bed has seen better days, but so has the building. The location and view could not make up for my husband and I having to kill roaches every night. Pro tip leave the light on and less venture out from their holes. Wash everything in the kitchen before using. Because we found roaches in cupboards. If the owner had expressed any kind of apology, I’d have felt a little better about the situation. As it was it felt like we were held hostage, because all VRBO’s were sold out, and we’d have had to pay double for something last minute, and it would not have had the accessibility I need due to my mobility. We are so disappointed. And VRBO’s lack of care considering their “guarantee” means I will look elsewhere in future to find accommodation that I can rely on.
Roaches killed.

Communication with our host Edgar was excellent. The unit was clean and well stocked although there was a broken lamp. We enjoyed use of the beach chairs and cooler for beach days. We slept the first night in the bedroom but it was loud from street noises and bright from outside lights so we spent the rest of our stay sleeping on the fold out couch in the living room and enjoyed the sound of the waves every night. They were sand blasting in the parking garage so there was a lot of noise and dust at times there, and the one way entrance was being used as an exit as well, making it a dangerous exit. The location was great and close to shopping and numerous great beaches to swim, surf and snorkel.

Pros and Cons

We experienced a cleaning issue that resulted in us cancelling our stay after arriving. The on-island contact and owner were both very responsive and attempted to resolve the issue; the owner also provided a refund without contest. Based on the other positive reviews, and the communication, I'm willing to believe it was a one time problem rather than a pattern, so my review will focus on other elements.

You can't beat the view from the lanai! It's a great location for venturing with plenty of options nearby, or a good base for exploring the entire island. Everything in the unit was clean and worked. The property itself is showing its age and wear. Some reviews have mentioned the road noise, but that isn't a distraction if you're not trying to sleep in .... and there's too much to see and do on the island to spend time sleeping in. The host provided great instructions, details, and tips a few days before our arrival. The unit is stocked with a good assortment of beach gear for use by guests.
