Sunset in Paradise Oceanfront 1BR/1BA Condo at Kona Reef Fast WiFi & Central AC

Enjoy breathtaking sunset views every night from this beautifully updated condo steps from Downtown Kailua-Kona village with AC in both the living room and bedroom.

Sunset in Paradise is your private paradise with gorgeous ocean views straight from a postcard. Relax on the lanai listening to the crashing waves with a cocktail while you enjoy another sunset, or sip your morning coffee while you watch the cruise ship come in. Inside you can enjoy the updated kitchen to prepare your own gourmet meals, relax on the comfortable sofa in front of the large 4K TV.

In the evening you can enjoy the nightly conch ceremony at sunset from your lanai with the best seat in the house, or head down and grill up some fresh catch at the poolside BBQ.

At the end of the day drift off to sleep on the California King memory foam mattress in the air conditioned bedroom dreaming of what you will do tomorrow in paradise.

High speed WiFi (500 Mbps), 50 inch 4K TV with 100s of channels and access to all major streaming services (bring your own subscription), Blu-ray player, and Air Conditioning throughout. California King bed to fall asleep on after another day exploring paradise in air conditioned bedroom. Pull out queen bed in living room sofa.

We try to include everything you will need to enjoy your vacation. Beach towels, umbrella and beach mat, cooler, snorkel gear, even boogie boards. The only thing you need to bring is your swimsuit and sunscreen.

Right outside the condo is the oceanfront pool and spa, as well as the BBQ area (so close the WiFi works great from there!). If you venture out, you are just steps away from everything. Enjoy the sandy beach right next door to the condo and watch turtles relax when it's calm, or locals surf when the waves are up. Take a short walk (less than 5 minutes) to enjoy pupus at Don the Beachcomber or delicious meals at Huggos. A few minutes further walk and you can visit the many shops of Kailua, grab a local coffee or acai bowl, or shop at the local market for fresh fruits, flowers, crafts, or just about anything else you can imagine!

Common grounds are tropical and well maintained with cameras and nightly security patrols for your safety and wellbeing (no cameras are inside the unit for your privacy).

Condo is well equipped with everything you need, from cooking to playing at the beach (see amenities for details). The only hard part of your vacation will be leaving.

Note: Hawaii is currently considering a bill to raise the Transient Accommodations Tax (TAT) from 10.25% to 11% starting in 2026. For bookings after 01/01/2026 tax rates will be adjusted to reflect the change if passed.
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Beyond incredible property and stay

This unit looked great in photos, and was even better in person! The moment my husband walked thru the house and onto the lanai, he said "good job" (in picking the rental).I filtered listings that were oceanfront, ac, king bed, and the highest reviews. I cannot say how impressed I was with the home's cleanliness. After staying in many different vacation rentals, I notice the little things like dust in places that don't get used much. This home made me feel at home, and honestly inspired me to clean the little things at my own home after lol.The heated pool and spa are fantastic. Theres also lounge chairs outside the fenced in pool area you can watch the ocean or sunset.There is privacy inside the unit as well, where you can sit on the couch and watch the ocean. Steve and Amber make the stay easy. They give you the info you need, but make you feel completely comfortable to enjoy your vacation. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Steve and Amber. We hope to return.

Its the little things

Its the little things that matter! This rental was PERFECT for our stay. This owner cares about their property, the quality and the subtle small things to make our 12 night stay worth every penny is evident in their property. This owner understands service, and care, from the moment we walked into to our cute welcome basket to the quality of the towels, linens and utensils which all served our needs exactly as needed. The upgrades to the refrigerator, washer/dryer and electronics gave us the desired comfort to make the stay so enjoyable we didn't want to leave on day 13. The condo is perfectly positioned to enjoy a coffee overlooking the whales in the morning and sunset in the evening on the very comfortable lanai. The organization of the outside "toys" afforded us to be able to use them with ease. There wasn't a si gle thing we didn't know its exact intention on how to use. We have stayed on a lot of VRBOs, including on this complex and this one by far exceeded expectations!

The location, view, condo amenities were outstanding. There was a slight issue with the air conditioning and we had immediate response from the owner to rectify the issue. Highly recommend and will be booking this unit for our next trip

Can't Beat the Ambience

This is my third time staying at Kona Reef, first time in this unit. The condo is well-appointed, organized and has the most amazing view of the pool and ocean. I'd be putting groceries away and have to marvel at the sight of rolling waves. The village-like Kona Town is close by with lots of shopping and restaurants. Beaches and activities are within close proximity. The vibe is always a good one with people easy to talk to around the pool/Jacuzzi.

Top rate all the way

Everything about this unit was 5 star. From the welcome basket, robes, high quality furnishings and appliances, tasteful decor, location to pool, ocean parking garage and garbage, air conditioning in living AND bedroom. The hide a bed was very comfortable. All bath products provided plus blow dryer and straightener. There was an iron and a steamer which came in clutch got bridesmaids and wedding dress. The property maintenance is also 5 star. Just like a high end resort, the lawn chairs are put back into their places, the entire pool area is hosed down each morning, the bbq area including the grills are cleaned, the pool bath room is cleaned throughout the day, the landscaping around the pool is meticulously manicured. The owner, Steve is nice and so responsive. (Of course he’s an Oregonian) I come to Kona annually and this is by far the nicest stay (since 2010). I will definitely return!!

Our family couldn’t have had a better experience at this condo in Kona Reef. The view from the lanai is incredible for watching waves or looking over the pool. The staff on site were very friendly and hardworking in keeping the property in beautiful shape. There are shared BBQ grills that work very well and made for some wonderful at home meals. The condo had wonderful AC that allowed us to escape the humidity when we needed a break. The appliances were wonderful and the space felt well kept. We will be looking at rebooking in the future if it’s still available.

Wonderful Getaway

This property delivered as expected. Beautiful location, excellent amenities, everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway. All utensils for a well stocked kitchen were there. We grilled steaks one night and found that Steve and Amber had a thermometer for checking temps, which I found very surprising. We only had to purchase groceries. The location is perfect to wake up to each day. The pool is always clean and waiting for travelers to enjoy. Kailua-Kona is easy and safe walking distance to shops and restaurants, even at night. Several days we had cruise ships docked off the coast when we woke up, which was a nice touch. One downside (not the property owners fault of course) is that there is no swimmable beach within walking distance. The beaches around the property and the general vicinity, are covered in lava rock, so you need water shoes to access the water. Overall, this was the nicest VRBO property we’ve stayed in, and would not hesitate to rebook if we travel to again to Kona.

A Renter’s Dream

We thoroughly enjoyed our 9-day stay at this condominium couldn’t have asked for more from the experience! The owners have tastefully and thoughtfully furnished the unit, making it the best of the many VRBO rentals we’ve had! It was immaculately clean and had everything we needed (generous supply of paper products, coffee for a couple mornings, shampoo/conditioner, beach towels, etc.) — and more (beautiful robes, a welcome basket of goodies…). They have thought of and supplied everything one might need during a stay (batteries, cleaning supplies, flashlights, extra lightbulbs…) and have them stored neatly so that they are readily available, without the unit feeling cluttered. Kitchen appliances were aplenty and of excellent quality, as were all the furnishings. The view from the condo is beautiful, looking directly across the pool area to the ocean. Although not quite as private as the oceanfront unit we rented on a previous stay at this complex, we actually enjoyed this view more. It was more interesting/fun and sunset viewings were perfect! Access to the lovely pool area was also quick and easy. The property location (among other things!) is what brings us back to the complex. We love being able to leave the car in the handy covered garage and walk into town for meals/activities; it is also easy to get to other areas of the island from there. We would highly recommend Steve and Amber’s condo and thank them for making it such a welcoming, wonderful vacation get-away spot!
