Awesome location

The location of this unit was great. Next to a sandy beach and nice restaurant on one side, and park with rocky beach on the other side. Just down the street was an awesome place to snorkel with the sea turtles. It was not far from town and a couple of good surf spots. I just had to get over the pink walls and ceiling fans chains hanging all over the place. But heck, I’m in Hawaii:)

Lovely and Convenient

Literally on the ocean where you can watch the sunset over a classic Hawaiian scene. Very convenient location for both Kona and South coast exploration. Beaches on both sides if you are feeling lazy. The one on the south side has good snorkeling if the ocean is calm. Go and enjoy!

Amazing views, ocean lulls to sleep

A great oceanfront spot at affordable price. Expect some occasional noise from busy street, but mostly quiet and quiet nights. Could use a deeper cleaning, and fresh paint, and shower drain runs slow. But overall wonderful little place and nice older condo complex. Comfortable bed and couch. The remodeled units have higher rates, so I was glad to find a perfectly fine older unit at an affordable price.

Great location

The location was really nice. It’s on the water, about 20 minutes from the airport, and less than 10 minutes from the busy tourist area/shopping in Kailua-Kona. There’s a public beach next to the property, and crashing waves/tide pools right out front. The large sliding doors on the lanai were cool. The unit was a bit just big enough for our family of 4. We didn’t spend a ton of time there outside of sleeping and some meals. It’s an older building/unit, but well-maintained. My kids liked the pool… which seems weird with the beach right next door, but it was nice to be able to float without waves.

This unit is in a really nice spot. The good, we were able to check in early and check out late. The unit was clean. The bad, this place really needs updating the electrical is all over the place, out in the open. From the couch we counted 4 different light fixtures/ceiling fans. Furniture dated.

great location in the Big Island, near perfect ocean view but a bit worn

Gave it a 4 because of the mattress and the overall need for some appearance improvement. Location is fabulous Don't freak out too much when you pull into the parking lot and think OMG it is an old motel from the 50s. While it is definitely not the Ritz, it is clean and the ocean is right out your sliding doors. Shame you can't walk out your room right to it. Great beach right next door. Well furnished kitchen for cooking considering the other rentals I've stayed out. Even a rice cooker and coffee grinder was there. Pool was clean and just big enough. Outdoor grills a bit past their prime but I did get one to function. The bad - the mattress sucks big time and for a guy with a bad back it was brutal sleeping on it for 6 nights. Would I stay here again? Could be, but I'd look at other properties first.

Nice room

Building and furniture is quite warn but kept clean and was still nice. It's great being so close to ocean. Don't like that there is a permanently open window in bathroom and above door which is street side on a busy street so all that noise comes in as if sitting right there along the road. Doors and windows at least block out some noise but these openings have now windows. Luckily the road noise died down during the night.
