Welcome to White Sands Village, # 216! Enjoy this two-bedroom, two-bathroom, fully air-conditioned condo. Located just across the street from Magic Sands beach, along the iconic Alii Drive, this new, completely remodeled condo has all the amenities you could need! Smart TVs, high-speed internet, workstation, ocean and beach views, and more!

Conveniently located across the street from Magics Beach Grill, you are a short stroll away from some of the best food and drink on the Kona coast. Whether you are looking for a morning cup of Kona coffee at Magics Beach Shack, or an inspired meal made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients for lunch or dinner, there is something for everybody moments away from your doorstep.

Upon entering unit 216, you will see the bedrooms on each side. To the right, the guest bedroom with brand new twin beds (can be made into a king bed, upon request), smart tv, and plenty of room to unwind. The master bedroom features a stunning ensuite, a brand-new king bed, smart tv, and a tranquil bathroom and shower. From the bedrooms to the communal area, you will love the beach-chic serenity. After the guest bathroom in the hallway, you will reach the open floorplan of the kitchen, dining room, and living room.

The kitchen is fully equipped with brand new appliances, dishes, and cookware. It opens to a breakfast nook and the dining area. Unwind while on the couch after a long day or run your business remotely from the workstation. You will want to spend your evenings watching the sunset on the private lanai. Watch the waves crash on the beach and enjoy the shade after a long day of adventures.

Please note: There are a few steps up to the elevator to take you up from the ground floor. There is also a set of steps to take you from the elevator to the unit making it not fully accessible for those with disabilities. While we also welcome children, the lanai is not childproof. This home has central AC.

As of 6/4/23 air conditioning is under maintenance for approximately 6-8 weeks as we are awaiting parts.

***At this time the tennis courts located within the complex are not usable as they were undergoing renovation and the work had to be stopped to research possible archeological impacts of the project. We are sorry for any inconvenience.***

**The Hawai'i County Department of Parks and Recreation closed La'aloa Beach Park (the closed parking lot including the cultural sites along the water that are across from the Keauhou Bldg driveway). The south end of Magic Sands Beach Park is also closed for construction improvements. Both projects will run concurrently and are expected to be completed in approximately 7-8 months. The beach portion of the park remains open and Water Safety Officers of the Hawai'i Fire Department continue their oversight of ocean activities there.

While we strive to keep all photos up to date, there may be new and updated pieces of furniture or décor that are different than in the original pictures. The functionality, available seating and sleeping space will remain the same or may improve.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 1. AWESOME location - right across from the most beautiful beach, 12 mins from Walmart, 20 mins from Costco, walking distance to Magics grill, 10 mins to downtown Kona - the most happening place2. GREAT views - the view is even better than the pictures. You will thank yourself for picking this place. This is my main criteria and I was so glad I chose this place3. BEAUTIFUL condo - very clean, well furnished, neatly kept with all the essentials3. WONDERFUL host - CB was great to work with. We had an initial minot hiccup with the washer not working (not under their control). They apologized, compensated and still serviced it within 3 days. Very responsive with all the questions.Overall, a wonderful experience for our first time in Hawaii. Will definitely pick a CB property again in a heartbeat! Thanks CB team for making this a wonderful memory for our family of 4 (2 adult kids).

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Despite the A/C being out (more on that later), we had a very nice stay in White Sands #216. The location is close to Ali'i drive and the beach, and it has a nice ocean view from the large back deck. The building layout is a bit odd, with stairs required when using the elevator. The inside is nicely updated, and very well equipped for cooking, bathing, laundry, and going to the beach. Beach gear includes plenty of chairs, a nice umbrella, small and large coolers, two snorkel masks, and more. The beds are decently comfortable and there are many fans available. The pool/hot tub area is very nice. The complex is very peaceful and quiet, which we loved.We were notified a few days before our stay that the A/C would be out for our entire stay. There was some time-consuming haggling about the discount we would get, but we agreed to stay here and it was a pleasant stay. With working A/C, I'd give it 5 stars.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed in White Sands Village with our two young children and the rental was perfect for our needs. So nice to have a kitchen well-stocked with cookware and utensils and to have a washer and dryer available. Was so happy to find a reasonable supply of dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent. We enjoyed walking to the beach across the street (although the surf is quite rough for little ones there so make sure you check out the keiki beaches) and loved using the pool. It was a great home base for our exploration of the Big Island.

We booked this condo for a relaxing couple's vacation. We arrived to find that there were no curtains or drapes in both bedrooms, which face the walkway outside. Instead, there were broken vertical blinds that left big gaps and no privacy. We ended up hanging a sheet over the window - not a great way to start your romantic beach vacation! The next morning, we woke up to the sound of jackhammers and construction equipment. Upon further investigation, we found out that Magic Beach Park across the street is under construction for the next several months. Huge bummer, as we chose this condo due to the proximity to Magic Beach - it currently looks nothing like the photos are posted on VRBO. The VRBO add mentioned that the White Sands tennis courts were under construction - there was no notice that the "beautiful beach" across the street would be a construction site. Construction noise could be heard on the lanai and at the pool, along with a lot of road noise from Alii Drive. We ended up staying in a hotel for a few nights during the week to get away from the noise. The redeeming quality of this unit is the spacious lanai, which could be enjoyed at night and on the weekends when there was no active construction. Big disappointment!

It's everything we had hoped for and more! Great location with beach access right across the street, close to restaurants and shopping area. Love the keypad for entry so you don't have to worry about keys when going to the beach. They had everything we need in the kitchen for cooking and eating, provided shampoo/conditioner, etc, beach amenities like beach chairs, cooler, snorkeling kits, beach mats and beach towels, and laundry soap! We also loved the welcome goodies they left in the fridge and printed instructions. Robyn from CBI Vacations was absolutely amazing. She checked in on us to make sure we are good to go. Thanks again for having us stay in your beautiful condo. Can't wait to return already!!

Really nice condo, comfortable and well appointed. Stocked with initial necessities (soap, garbage bags, detergent, etc). Great location, Magic Sands beach is across the street, the condo has boogie boards, chairs, noodles, etc. Teenagers enjoyed being able to just pop down to the beach at any time. 7 min drive to Kailua village, so close to things but not surrounded by crowds. Nice quiet location. Clean pool. Had a package sent to me here and the property manager was great about coordinating the delivery. Would recommend a stay here and would not hesitate to return. Great experience.

Location was very near stores and restaurants and right across from very nice public beach. There's Walmart, Target, big box stores and many local business as well w/in 5-10mins. The driveway to parking is narrow and can be easily missed from beach front road.

The patio is perfect for having everyone together at the end of the day and palms that give just a little privacy. Inside is clean and recently remodeled with everything you need for a day on the beach waiting for you. Would highly recommend this second floor unit and location.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 4 had a great time at this condo! We live on Oahu so it was more of a staycation and it was the perfect place for us to relax. Everything was as cute as the pictures. The location was very convenient to shopping and restaurants. Next to the beach right outside of the condo is a cute outdoor cafe with tastes breaks fast items and delicious coffee called the Beach Shack. Just a heads up, at the time we stayed due to covid we had to sign up for pool use. Only 4 guests at a time or one family. The only negative was there were some pretty dirty dishes so we just threw them in the dishwasher before using. I would definitely recommend this condo.
