Amazing view

Beautiful way to start the morning with coffee and an incredible view from the wrap around lanai. Property management went above and beyond with any questions or needs. The condo grounds were beautiful. Having washer & dryer was a bonus. New cushions on lanai furniture would be appreciated.

Amazing views

My family and I including my 4 month old grandson had a great time at the condo. We saw pods of wales and dolphins from the lanai. The location was close to town and there was plenty of parking for our two cars. The only reason I gave it 4 starts instead of 5 is the coffee pot, it had the wrong carafe for the machine which made coffee collect in the filter causing the coffee to overflow, other than that we all had a great time!

My Hawaiian vacation

We stayed here for 10 wonderful days. We had everything we needed including coolers, beach chairs, boogie boards and a few sand toys. The views from the wrap around lanai were amazing and the place was very peaceful. If you come with kids the quiet times are quite strictly enforced as well as no jumping in the pool so just be aware of that and you will have a wonderful stay.

Excellent location, very comfortable condo with spectacular views!

Pros: Paul, our host, was incredible. He was very responsive & accommodating from start to finish. The location & views are 10/10, incredible. Well equipped & comfortable condo for our party of 5. Cons: Very strict rules, it seems as though many of the other condos are inhabited by older residents who frown on those of us renters enjoying our vacation (i.e. conversing “too loudly” at dinner on the lanai, no floaties or splashing/fun in the pool, etc.) feels almost like it should be a 55 property based on the very strict rules & how they’re enforced by the residents. Overall, would absolutely stay here again! Thank you, Paul, for a wonderful stay!

Celebrating birthdays!

We had a lovely time at this condo! It was laid out beautifully, and the view was stunning. The loft got a bit to warm at night, but it was manageable. We were very gratefully for the air conditioning. The only thing that was a little silly was amount of toilet paper provided for a condo that sleeps 6 people: 3 rolls for one week for 6 people. Then they wanted to charge us $35 to bring more. I thought that was a bit silly. Otherwise, the grounds were beautiful. The pool was lovely, and it was perfect distance to downtown Kona.

Convenient and quiet

Beautiful property, great view and location. Not necessarily good for families with small children because of all of the rules; ie, no pool toys, floaties etc, no food allowed at the pool. We couldn't use our phones on the lanai so working from the Condo wasn't ideal.

One month stay

The grounds and pool were amazing! Wish the condo would have had a decent broom and a mop. The lanai would get bird droppings on it and would have liked to have been able to mop it. More cleaning supplies would have been nice. The broom and vacuums were not great. Loose tiles on the lanai and the condo could maybe use a good updating. Other than that our stay was great.

While dated, the condo was comfortable and clean. Couldn’t ask for a better view of sunset. Wouldn’t recommend for anyone who has physical issues as there are three flights of stairs. Pool was wonderful, but walking to the beach wasn’t an option. Especially appreciated Paul, our contact, for his quick response and support. I would recommend this property for a positive experience.

Nice condo with an awesome view and Lanai. Paul the manager was very responsive in all my emails. They supply you with beach chairs, umbrella, beach toys and beach towels. I also saw snorkel supplies. It could use some updates but the pictures show the real deal. Also there is an air conditioner in all the rooms. I would stay again.

We loved this condo!! It was perfect for the 6 of us and had everything we needed! I especially enjoyed having my coffee and watching the ocean in the morning. So peaceful and beautiful! The beds are super comfy! The place was warm when we got in but after we got the ac going... what a difference!! Paul was helpful without hovering which I liked!! Everything was ready when we got there and easy to manage! Thank you Paul for an easy and beautiful stay!!

Beautiful view, disappointing accommodations

Some reviews say "tired". I say comatose. Kitchen cabinet doors stuck themselves shut repeatedly. The finish on one was rubbed off apparently from people trying to get it open. Door handles has "scuz" on the back side underneath, apparently decades of buildup. The bathroom door handle lopck stuck shut. Close the door from the outside and you aren't getting in. Did I forget the plugged kitchen sinks? Took me a hour and a half to clean up after the plumber after he had left, some from him, most because it hadn't been cleaned under the sink for ages. Check out the lani. Hasn't been painted for years, maybe ever. The walls are all spotted and faded. Furniture very uncomfortable with the exception of the living area couch. The place looks like it was furnished by Goodwill. The indoor dining table is a lani table complete with umbrella hole. Sits four. We had six. PLUS SIDE: The view was great. The pool needed replastering but is fully functional and very nice. The lounge chairs were quite comfortable. There is a great viewing area for sunsets and whale watching. Everything I could have expected from the common area. My contact, Paul, was quite accommodating. He got a plumber out ASAP on a Saturday, a small miracle in Hawaii! This was my first VRBO. Maybe I just expected too much. Don't think I'll do this again.

Great vacation!

This is a terrific place to use as home base when exploring the Big Island. Nearby snorkeling, easy access to beaches, walking distance to shopping, near large grocery stores. Having a car was very useful for travelling the island. My review stars tell it all - well supplied for cooking, cleaning, beach-visiting; relaxing; on-site pool and hot tub were well kept. We were in Hawaii at the beginning of the Coronavirus shutdowns - were able to eat out the first night before restaurants were closed to visiting, able to visit beaches before they were banned from use; able to drive around the Island several days to see all the sites - even though the Parks were shut down, they were not closed to walking around and learning about the Island and its volcanos; able to swim with the manta rays; able to buy groceries for cooking at our Kona Makai unit. Paul was very helpful when we asked for the location of items. There was no cover-up or skimming over the facility on the VRBO website and description of this property. I would recommend it to everyone.

Mixed feelings

Some of the residents of this complex are not happy to have renters there. My grandsons are 10 and 16 and their noisy fun in the pool- while supervised by parents - was frowned upon. Other vacationers said the same thing, and one resident left his suite to come to the pool and chastise some 60+ people who were listening to music and eating chips. No "fun, resort feel". However if you are a quiet couple, the condo itself is exactly as pictured....a bit dated, but all the conveniences, and a killer view of the ocean from the large lanai.
