My husband and I enjoyed our two-week visit to the Big Island in December. The accommodations were very nice and comfortable. The location was perfect. It's convenient to downtown Kailua (about 4 miles away, so not in the craziness), adjacent access to the ocean (unit has beach chairs) and 1/2 mile to the Keauhoe shopping center with full grocery store and several restaurants. We watched the most amazing sunsets each night on the beach. The owners provides beach chairs and many other amenities to enjoy your stay. The facility grounds were very nice and had great amenities. Great location, property and townhome.

Great location and perfect for getting together with adult children. Getting a couple condos in the same complex makes for the perfect blend of being together and having healthy personal space.

We enjoyed our stay. Loved the beach chairs, umbrella, towels, boogie boards, and more! Made our beach days even better! Kitchen was really well equipped! Would have liked a few basics like olive oil and salt and pepper but I get that stuff can be hard to keep track of in a rental. We did not use the amenities at all, too busy exploring the island, but the property was nice overall. Thanks for a great week!

We loved this condo, the complex, and the location. This was a fantastic value! There were 4 of us, my wife and two teenage daughters. They loved having their own room with two beds and having 2 bathrooms made getting ready a no-fuss ordeal. Air conditioning worked well for a great night's sleep. Another reviewer said 150 steps to the beach is a stretch, but I counted it off and it may even be a few less! (I guess it depends on your stride). There is a great grocery store just a half mile away that we frequented. Be sure to check out the beach at low tide. There are amazing crystal clear tide pools filled with beautiful fish and interesting sea creatures.

Great trip. Corner unit...no view of ocean but close to everything. Clean. A bit hot and humid. Especially downstairs either with ac or all windows doors open. Upstairs ac great! Would recommend it.

This is our 2nd time staying here and it was wonderful. We love everything about this place. Will be staying here again

Property suited our needs perfectly. Pool was nearby, and we were well located to get into Kona and around the island. The "150 yards to the beach" was a bit of a stretch, but not egregiously so.

Condo well appointed and good beds. Floors not clean however even though we didn't wear shoes inside. In case it's important to anyone, both bedrooms upstairs while one of the bathrooms is downstairs. Condo would benefit from grab bars in the showers.

We had a great stay at this unit. It is a comfortable & well stocked place for a family of four (2 adults and 2 kids), immaculately clean (except your feet turns black after walking for half hour barefooted on the floor. I highly recommend to bring indoor slippers with you) and a great location in Kona / Keauhou area - close to Kahaluu Beach, Keauhou Bay, Kona town, supermarket & golf course. Also, communication with host was extremely easy. I would book again.

The property was in an excellent location. It also had a decent beach for snorkelling while the other 1/2 played in the pool! The girls enjoyed the tennis courts as well! The townhouse was supplied with everything you would need from cooking a meal at home, to tennis, lawn chairs, picnic on the beach! The only thing I would recommend would be a hotel safe, as house keepers were in the place while we were gone. Other than that it was perfect! We enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to come back!

What a great unit, the layout of the condo was suburb for a family and hosting other guest during our stay. All the extra little things made our stay even more enjoyable. Having full gear to visit any beach was amazing. Having A/C was the best as well. I would highly recommend this unit. Thank you for making our holiday a great one.

The accomodation was perfect in size with 2 bedrooms and 3 beds total. It had everything needed to cook own meals. The resort had a great pool and is located on the shore line which was awesome for sunset photos. Definitely recommend this place!

The smell of cleaning solutions is never a good introduction, but the space is adequate. Given that they ask you to remove shoes, you'd expect a clean floor. But after an hour of walking around the downstairs, our feet were turning black. Other than a huge roach in the upstairs bath, everything else worked out fine. The beds are smaller than hoped, a bit flimsy, and the cable went out twice in our 4 days, but the A/C and all other appliances were good.

A great place to stay in Kona! Near beaches and sights and restaurants. Clean. Well-stocked townhome.

This unit is well appointed so definitely stop here before doing your shopping to see what you'll actually need first. I've stayed at places where you even had to bring your own slat and pepper because they clear out everything between visits but here they had spices and cleaning products and such available. The unit was clean and comfortable and we ate multiple meals on the lanai daily. Water pressure in at least the lower level shower was beyond impressive. The kids used the upstairs shower and had no complaints so I assume it was a similar experience. There were chairs, boogey boards, snorkel gear, tennis and ping pong equipment available as well. We did add 2 sets of snorkel gear as my youngest didnt have a set that fit her well and one of the fins my wife tried had a broken strap so we just got 2 more sets. Pretty much everything you are looking for in the unit and location. Pool, grills, tennis court, ping pong table were all in good shape and clean. The main beach to the right facing the ocean was great for tide pooling at lower tide, watch out for the urchins further down...they are abundant. Great location for sunsets as well. We saw turtles in the water pretty much every time we walked down there too. If you have one of those pocket hammocks, there are multiple locations along that beach to hang one or more, wish I'd grabbed mine. The park a half mile up the road was good for snorkeling and the kids did take surf lessons there as well. The KTA grocery store is just over a half mile up the hill at a decent sized shopping center and met all our needs there and had a nice Shave Ice shop next door. this location is on the south end of Kona outside the main hustle and bustle but its a short and scenic drive up Ali'i to even more parks/restaurants/shops. Not much more to say other than an all around great stay.

We love the surf and racquet club for our family because of the convenience and the pool. This is our third time staying there!

We loved staying in this unit. The air conditioning was fantastic, the unit was immaculate, the complex grounds are well manicured, the pool was very very nice, and the tennis courts very enjoyable. We love that within a five minute drive was a great little beach park with fantastic coral reefs and very nearby was a shopping plaza complete with a grocery store. Our only concern is there is a bit of an ant situation going on both in the Kitchen and in the master bedroom. When we called the management company they did immediately send somebody out with some ant traps and I appreciated them addressing our concerns but I do think a bit more effective job of exterior extermination would be beneficial. Well at all though we would definitely consider staying at this location again if our travels ever find us back on the Big Island.

Beautiful setting of the condo, like a botanical with pool and tennis courts. Great location, walking distance from one of the best snorkeling beaches on the island, or surfing for begginers. Nice condo, spacious rooms. Kitchen is fully equipped and there is some beach gear available as well.

Gracious and caring hosts. Their rental is comfortable. The garden is lovely and relaxing. We would rate this 10 if possible.

The condo was nice. It was equipped well enough for cooking. We appreciated all the outdoor stuff that was there for us to use when going to the beaches. The only thing that was convient & bothersome was having the trash and recycle right outside the patio....it could be a bit noisy. We understate your need for constant maintenance of the grounds but that can be a bit noisy too. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would come again. We didn't communicate with the property manager once we we there, but before arrival communications were good.

We were very pleased with our stay at #52. The townhouse is well equipped and has many amenities available. We appreciated having AC available. Beach chairs, boogie boards, an an ice chest were very nice bonus items available for our use during our stay. The Kitchen is well equipped and functional. Suggestions for the owner would be additional blankets available for each bed. The master/queen bed did have a blanket, but none available for the twin beds. Beds are made with a sheet and light sheet coverlets which felt like you only had a sheet on and nothing else. Even though it’s plenty warm in Hawai’i, it’s more of a comfort issue when sleeping. We loved having a washer and dryer available, but would recommend a small laundry basket for carrying laundry down and up the stairs. We would recommend this townhouse in general. It has a nice patio for outdoor dining which we used daily.

There was a problem at check-in about a delayed cleaning of the condo. But the renting agency took care of the situation rapidly. The condo and the resort were very nice. Excellent place to stay in Kona.

The upstairs bathroom leaked after first use. It was inaccessible to us for the rest of our stay. Totally inconvenient. But other than that, the place itself is nice, very well equipped & is at a great location

If you are looking for something outside of downtown Kona that's still convenient to a lot, this is a great choice. It is also well-stocked with dishes, extra blankets, beach chairs, even snorkeling stuff and books for the beach! Everyone I was in contact with regarding our stay was helpful and friendly.

The location was great. The place was comfortable but the unit could have been cleaner. Not sure if the floors were swept and mopped and the tables dusted. Overall the stay was pleasant.

Although a little outside Kailua town, I didn't mind at all. The addition of Keauhou shopping center is helpful. The condo was just perfect for the 3 of us. Another group that came up with us was in a similar condo with 5 adults and 1 child and fit fine. We will definitely check out this property when we return.

We were doing a work-cation and this place was perfect for our group. Comfortable place with all needed amenities. Internet connection was a bit slow, but we were also taking a lot of work video calls etc. would recommend having a car to get around as the main street with all the restaurants and beachfront is not walkable from here. We had a great stay, would recommend!

This property served our family of four (two teenage boys) very well. The grounds were beautiful, safe, well cared for, and convenient. The unit had all the things we needed to self cater. Enough towels for everyone, including beach towels. Beach chairs and a cooler, which was very handy. The pool and tennis courts were very nice. Parking right outside the front door. The beach, which truly is 150 steps away, is uncrowded, clean, and great spot for enjoying the sunset. The price was very reasonable for the island of Hawaii. I have no complaints, but two minor suggestions: exhaust fans in the bathrooms would be appreciated and perhaps a surge protector in the master bedroom for an extra outlet. I would highly recommend this property and would happily stay here again.

This was a great location that was clean and very comfortable. Older construction but it had all the modern amenities and was a great price. Dave, the Concierge was fantastic pre-stay and during our stay. We would definetely book there again and have no reservations about recommending this property.
