Great location

Location in downtown Kona is a choice! Great restaurants and farmers market steps awayWell stocked kitchenware, towels, beach chairs though I think that equipment variesDated but in good repair (sliding doors are sticky but ALL beachfront properties only have smooth doors for the first 6 hours they are installedThe choice location is also its downfall— it’s not quiet, so if you aren’t into hearing town noises, trucks, kids playing soccer next door, it might not be ideal.Didn’t bother me one bit, we had a fabulous time.No a/c but fans work well and nice breeze on lanai (I never use a/c anyway but thought it might be useful info)Communication with managers was smoothEverything went smoothly

Great Location in Kona

The Kona Ali’i condo is perfectly located with sunset views and Hawaiian plumeria and BBQ aromas! We were able to walk to dinner each evening and parking was included in our stay! The building is aging a bit and the unit doesn’t have AC, so be aware if you’re traveling in the hotter months, but the location and responsiveness of the management makes up for those tiny concerns. We would certainly stay at this location again!

Great location but a dated property

Whilst the property was functional the furniture and general look was very dated. The mezzanine bedroom was good but no curtains of any note so prepare to not sleep well. The showers were fine but not f you’re 6ft then aren’t high enough on the wall. The pool was good and overall we had a great time on the island

Upstairs shower didn't work

It was perfectly fine, except the upstairs shower has some issue where the hot water is just a trickle, so it is unusable. Luckily, the second bathroom downstairs has a shower, but it is not as convenient.

Great location within walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops. There is one designated covered parking spot next to the building. There is no A/C, but several fans available. The washer and dryer are very small, but worked well. The property management company is not available by phone or text outside of business hours.

Kona comfort

We were very pleased with the condo. Great location - close to water, restaurants and shops. It was well outfitted with supplies - dishes, linens - even beach toys. The only slight negative was the the washer didn't not work well and the dryer left the contents damp. We were told these are being replaced. Management was responsive to inquiries and very helpful. Would highly recommend this VRBO.

Great location

This was a great location—plenty of restaurants and stores. Farmer's market was right down the street. Great view of the ocean and the mountains. There was a really good saltwater pool that we swam in every day. The maintenance guy kept a good eye on the property which made us feel safer because there are some homeless people in this area. There was snorkel equipment and boogie boards in the room which was a good treat. The only negative is that some of the electrical appliances such as the fans didn't work and also there was a leak in the shower door which got water all over the floor. Also, it should be noted that most condos in Hawaii do not have A/C and this condo is no exception. It's not a huge deal because the weather is always nice and the rooms are designed to maximize airflow. All in all, I would stay here again

Lovely Location!

We had a wonderful stay here, the location is great for downtown access and the property is kept very clean. I would recommend using the standing fans in the loft area as it can get quite warm, but the main floor master suite has a good breeze way through it so it’s comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, we even had a blender so I could make my infant son his own purées! We were also able to arrange with a company to drop off and pick up baby equipment, just use the one recommended by elite properties, it was very easy. The balcony offered beautiful views, perfect for coffee in the mornings and a glass of wine in the evenings. The railings in the loft are spaced wide apart, so for those with mobile young children just be aware if they are in the loft. Otherwise we would definitely stay here again!

Good location

If you are looking for staying near the beach, with great restaurants and shops, this is the place. However, the property is outdated. It has three tv's but only the one on the living room works. So, what's the point of having the rest. If you don't mind then this is the place but when your are traveling with children is a must. The pool is nice and it is a quiet condo community which is great. The kitchen is well equipped with cups, forks, pans, etc. But due to covid, we used disposables. You will also find beach umbrellas, pool noodles, cooler, snorkel gear, etc. That we didn't use it but it was nice to see that they provide them. One last comment, the bathrooms could be a little cleaner.
