Couldn't be happier with our stay and plan on returning. Right on the water with beautiful views. AC was a plus as the heat was intense. Comfy bed and well appointed kitchen. The 80” plus TV was nice too. Will def. be back.

The stay was 2 weeks long and not enough time!! The condo is easy to find, sits on an amazing bay filled with surfers and occasionally a few porpoises! The unit is spacious and filled with light. Exactly as pictured. The beds were very comfortable and the split air conditioning allowed for each person to customize their comfort zones. Kitchen was well stocked. The lanai was a bit narrow but was the perfect good morning and early evening place to hang out! Tracey was quick and friendly to respond to any questions we had . This was my first trip to Kona but I’d gladly rent this unit again.

I loved the view of the ocean, it's a hot spot for surfing which is fun to watch. We seen dolphins basically daily as we sat on the lanai enjoying our morning coffee. Location is great, everything is within minutes. Has all your needs for cooking which we did almost daily and bar b que was convenient as well. Any questions we had were promptly answered as well. We would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I stayed for 10 nights in March 2023. Unfortunately our flight was delayed and we lost a night at the beginning. Cancelation policies meant not getting reimbursed for the night. Nevertheless, my review is not because they wouldn't reimburse! Cons: We arrived at 930 pm and we were given the wrong code for the elevator, which is the only way to get up. We texted both managers and eventually one of them did text back with the correct code. But kinda frustrating sitting in the parking lot waiting for a response. There is no AC, which we knew. Don't be fooled, you need it. It is muggy and stuffy if you keep the windows and drapes closed to keep it cool from the afternoon sun. The back screen door was broken so we couldn't use it and get air flowing through. The place is very dated and small things could be done to improve it. Perhaps some new bedding and towels that aren't thin and stained would be a good start. There was a review about the knives in 2022 and how dull they were. Obviously no one read them, since the knives were very very dull so cleaning fruit like a pineapple was almost impossible. Needs a good cleaning throughout. Two of the 4 chairs on the deck were almost broken but there was only 2 of us so we made it work. Drawer in the kitchen is broken. These are simply things that could be done and make the difference. Pros: The view for the sunsets was amazing. Watching many surfers in front every morning was neat.

We loved watching the surfers and whales from our lanai every morning. The condo was well stocked, beds were comfortable and was in a great location.

This property was so wonderful to stay at. Convenient to town. The best part was listening to the waves and watching all the surfers! We could sit on the deck all day!

The location of this condo happens to be directly on one of the best surfing spots on the Big Island, check any surf map. It was fun to watch them out there on high tides and try a bit of boogie boarding myself. The condo complex was clean and nice and was what we expected when we booked it. The only complaint we had was that the internet modem died so we had no access to wifi or the TV for the first night, second day, and half of the 3rd day. I communicated this when we first got to the unit and the second day and felt the response was very slow for such a simple problem. I've had modems go out in the past that are from the internet company (Spectrum) and it's a very simple procedure to get a new one. That said, they did communicate well and responded politely and appropriately. The master bed was very comfortable and the waves right outside the bedroom was the best sound machine ever for good sleep. Overall, it was a great stay, just a little disconnected for the first couple days with the TV/wifi issue.

Very loud at night because need to keep sliders open due to no A/C. Best view of surfers and sunsets on island.

This place was an absolute dream place to stay! The views are exquisite with subsets and watching surfers morning and evening. It had everything we needed with a full kitchen and washer/ dryer. The mattress in the master was a dream to sleep in. Highly recommend and already looking to book another trip there!

The view is spectacular! This is the reason we selected this condo. It is not as outfitted as we would have liked but we enjoyed ourselves. Walmart and Costco are a short drive away. I don't understand the reviews that state the master bedroom has no separation. There is a large pocket door that provides privacy from the living room to the master. We tried taking a beach chair to the beach that was on the lanai and found out when we got to the beach it was terribly broken. I am not sure why someone put a broken chair back. The pool and hot tub overlooking the ocean is so fantastic! We would stay here again!

Cockroaches in the drawers and cupboards and running across the floor day and night. Oscillating fan was greasy and full of dust and dirt. I replaced 7 light bulbs that were burned out. Bed in the 2nd bedroom lumpy and needs to be replaced. TV in 2nd bedroom did not work! The sheet on the king bed smelled like pee. Towels were dirty. It's a good thing we brought our own towels and sheets. We had to wash everything before we could stay here. The ceiling in the kitchen had been repaired and was not sealed and painted right. The shower in the master bath leaked so bad that we put the dirty towels on the floor to prevent a flood. Main bath the shower leaked and NO water pressure. Furniture smelled like body odor. The dryer lint trap was plugged. The light fixtures were filled with bugs so bad we needed to clean them. The walls were dirty and scuffed with marks and the entire Condo needed repainting. Drapes did NOT fit the window and had the wrong type of hangers to hold them up and we had to constantly fix them. The view was excellent out the door walls. Management did refund 4 days stay for our problems and I did get my deposit back. If they ever fixed this place up and put some money in to it our stay would have been very nice. I would pass this one by! .
