We like this complex and have stayed here before. This unit has an amazing ocean view, a comfortable bed, and a decent kitchen. We really like the location of the complex. Comfortable furniture, a nice pool, friendly neighbors, and clear information are things we enjoy. This place has all. Although we didn't need them, they have a well stocked cupboard of beach stuff!

Our Condo was spacious with a beautiful view from the Lanai. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishware, utensils and spices galore! Laundry soap provided by past guests. The owner had a guestbook which provided a wealth of information from past guests. (We signed it too!) No A/C but plenty of ceiling fans kept us comfy. Nice pool and golf course on site. Highly recommend!

keep in mind most condos in Kona are older. This is no exception. But, It is well maintained. We had a pleasant stay except for road noise. It was hot and humid during early November 2023. We had to keep windows open all night for it to cool off. Road noise from Alii Highway was excessive in our mind. Great location to access Keauhou Bay.

Could not have imagined a more welcoming space to inhabit! The views were spectacular, the unit was spacious and clean, and the location was central to all our activities. We would happily stay again but found it is solidly booked for many months ahead! Understandable, but sadly not a well kept secret LOL

This was the first time my husband and I visited the Big Island. We were there for the Ironman World Championships. Our stay at Kona Vacay was wonderful!! We can't say enough about how great Damon and Eric were as our hosts. Most of our communication was with Damon since Eric was out of town with family. From the very start, Damon made us feel very welcome. He greeted us when we arrived and showed us around the place and how to use everything. The place itself was excellent and just as described. We liked the fact that it was a little bit away from all the hustle and bustle but close enough to get to everything in Kona. Damon was great with communication and was able to give us advice on places to eat and things to do. We highly recommend staying at Damon and Eric's place. If we are fortunate enough to return to the Big Island, we would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for welcoming us into your place!!

We chose this property because friends were staying in the same complex. Nice but expensive. Very comfortable for 2 people, relaxing, and well equipped. No A/C, Distant from everything in Kona, Birds chirp loud all night which didn't bother us, but others may want to avoid this problem.

But had lots of extras such as laundry soap for doing laundry. great communication with owner. good location. free parking. would be good to know where the actual unit is (park near the end othe parking lot by the poot, unit is in last building mauka side, up first set of stairs). very clean. a/c would help.

Everything about this property was perfect. The location was ideal - within walking distance to the beach, shopping area and free shuttle into Kona. The setting was perfect - beautiful view of the golf course and ocean, the amenities in the condo were great - from kitchen supplies and appliances, to washing machine/dryer and beach chairs/umbrellas for use as well as 3 pools. Comfortable beds with 2 bathrooms which was perfect for our group. We were here for the Kona ironman, and the everything exceeded our expectations - would definitely recommend this property to anyone else travelling to Kona. We were friends staying here, but would also be great for families with the 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and the pools on site.

Our second stay at this apartment, even better than the first time in 2019 as we stayed longer! Great communication with hosts, no fuss booking and check in. We LOVE this location, although best to have a car. Spacious apartment, everything you need, snorkelling gear and body boards, beach chairs, coolers, beach towels, the hosts even bought us a beach umbrella. We ate on the lanai for every meal. New Air Conditioning unit in the bedroom, although we did not use it as love the ceiling fans and open windows and doors throughout. The pool in this complex is the best...clean, clear, mostly quiet, warm shower and plenty of chairs, loungers and umbrellas. Even a book lending library at the pool! We don't mind the early starts from the golf course workers and golfers, as the views and privacy from the lanai are awesome. Walks around coast and golf course. Close to supermarket and shopping centre, and walking distance to harbour and twice weekly market. Easy drive to Kona, 25 minutes to airport. THANK YOU :)

One of the best locations on the island for snorkeling. 2Step is nearby. If you are lookin Goff a beach for the kids with sand, Magic Sands is also near. Shopping center with a grocery store is also nearby. The owner is extremely responsive. There are Beach chairs and other items needed for play. All in all a great time.

Beautiful place, wonderful amenities! Just be aware, the place does not have any AC (it is listed as no central air, but be aware there is no ac unit whatsoever). Also, the property has very strict rules, and some residents were very unfriendly towards us over them. On our first night moving in, we had a neighbor yell at us for rolling our luggage in because we were being too loud. We additionally were given notes from the property about not being able to have a phone call on our lanai and backing in to the parking spot in which they threatened to contact our property manager. Overall, this place was beautiful, very clean, and had many things that helped our vacation go smoothly (coolers, chairs, towels, etc). We absolutely loved the place itself. However, the strictness of the rules and the unfriendliness of neighbors made us feel very unwelcome as paying guests.

Location is great. Quiet neighborhood and has a beautiful view of the coast from the lanai. We hear song birds all day. Lanai is nice for breakfast with a view. Having snorkel gears, boogie boards, and baby floatie are a plus. Those can use a little more cleaning, though. The house itself is generally clean and comfortable. we just ran into one issue, trash was not left under the sink and was not thrown out by the previous guests or the cleaners. The unit has lots of fans inside which really helped to keep the house cool. No A/C unit. Kitchen is complete with pots, pans, utensils, cups, plates, etc, which was such a big plus to our stay as we cooked our own breakfast everyday. I would suggest adding a jar of ground coffee, though. 3 flights of stairs to the unit so if you have big luggages it wouldnt be ideal. We had 2 hand-carry size luggage and a toddler, it wasn't too bad going up to the unit. The owner Bonnie is easy to communicate with for any questions. 50 minutes from Hapuna Beach, 1 hr 30 minutes from Black Sand Beach, a little over 2 hours from volcano. Overall, I would recommend this place. Very comfortable, beautiful view, quiet.

This condo is great if you are a slightly mobility impaired. There are no stairs, but you do have to walk around the building. The showers are easy to get into. There was a very comfortable queen size bed at a good height. Our friend slept on the Murphy bed and she said it was very comfortable also. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you will need to cook. There are a few extra spices which is great. I have rented in the complex five or six times over the years, different units and I will definitely come back to this condo again. Easy to communicate with the owners.

This place has all the essentials! We only stayed 2 days, but this place allows you to enjoy a beautiful sunset while having all the amenities for a relaxing vacation! From chairs to umbrellas to spices for cooking to a cooler, this place allows you not to have to worry about a thing and just go explore Big Island! Would definitely recommend!!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Communication with the manager and the entire check in process was excellent, and the property was very clean and well stocked with linens and supplies for cleaning, as well as resources for going to the beach and cooking. I wish we could have stayed longer and took advantage of the well stocked kitchen. Additionally it was only a few minutes away from the Fair Wind tours. There was a delightful artisan fair right down the road too. I definitely recommend this place and hope to stay again.

From breakfast on the balcony and dinner enjoying the sunsets, and everything in between. We needed nothing except food for the kitchen. Everything provided for beach days, right down to a cooler.

The lanai overlooked the golf course and ocean! We spent each morning watching golfers,/boats and drinking coffee. The Condo had a Polynesian vibe, warm and welcoming! Bed was beyond comfortable, kitchen well stocked, comfortable living room area! It was centrally located to travel the Kona Coast line! We will be back to share in this beautiful space!

Book this property you won’t be sorry!

April 2023

The location was perfect to everything we needed and chose to do. Great snorkeling tours one block away. Farmers Market 5 minutes away. Everything was clean, enough pillows and sheets. Enough kitchenware, pots and pans (could use an extra skillet), plates, cups, etc. The outside Lanai with the view of the ocean and sunset were perfect. Pool is great. Supplies for snorkeling for kids was a nice bonus. If I had to suggest anything, I would say be prepared for the quite atmosphere, it's not really a place for young children to be noisy, but there are plenty of places to take them for the day. We were okay with respecting quite time, others might not be. I brought ear plugs because I am a light sleeper, there are tropical birds and frogs. Also, we had an interesting neighbor below (I guess a visitor) that yawned loudly all night and morning, not the property owners' fault, but again, was glad I brought my ear plugs. Loved that there was an inside and outside table. Plenty of beds, and seating area. Loved that there was a washer and dryer in the condo. There were two showers, but only one got real warm water. I would recommend the place to friends and family. Owner was great about texting, calls and emails.

This was our first experience with vrbo and it was perfect for us. Diane, the Host was very helpful with directions, and instructions about the condo so it was very easy to locate the condo and get inside. It was exactly as described on the website. Everything was clean and ready to move in, all we had to do was unpack and go to the store for food. It is a very quiet place and friendly neighbors. Even though there was no AC there was usually a nice breeze and the ceiling fans kept it cool. The pool is near the unit, clean and very inviting. If we ever make it back to Kona we would for sure stay here again. Thanks again Diane for sharing your condo with our family and making our trip that much more special. Aloha, Willi and family

We truly enjoyed our time here. Very nice, quiet property. Used it as our home base for the first part of our stay, then stayed closer to Volcano NP at the end. There were no issues at all during our stay. The hosts thought of everything. Great to have a cooler, beach chairs, etc. The propane BBQ on the balcony was perfect for burgers. The pool is small, but close to the unit and was great to cool off. As others have mentioned, the outside noise (birds, yard crew, etc) starts really early. All of the windows are slats to allow airflow, but also allows in sound. We didn’t mind at all. It was actually nice to get the day started early. But if that bothers you, bring earplugs or reconsider. We would definitely stay again!

Our family had a great stay in this condo. Eric and Damon were very welcoming and on top of communication.

Very clean space, comfortable beds, and we loved the open concept to the lanai.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed this top floor condo and its large lanai. The stairs are a good reminder to be mindful, to not overpack (there's laundry in the unit), and to be grateful you can still do the stairs! The condo had what we needed to cook our meals, eat them comfortably, and do the dishes. the owners have thoughtfully provided A/C which wasn't necessarily needed every night - but was sure appreciated when needed. Comfortable beds - including the murphy bed with handy screens for making a private space at night. Clean, comfortable and easy to be there. You cannot beat the ocean view. It's so lovely to watch it, and the golfers on the 9th hole of the Kona Country Club teeing off. Friendly, quiet place. Nice pool. Easy to walk down to several beaches and to the boat harbor. There's a fun weekly farmers market with food, crafts and music at the Outrigger down the road. Easy access to shopping, groceries, restaurants, and to golf. We really enjoyed the place. Thanks so much. Mahalo.

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: This was the third unit at Keauhou Akahi that we have stayed in, and it was by far our favourite. Out of the four buildings at Akahi, this building sits further back, giving this particular top floor unit the best view of the entire complex. Yes, there are lots of stairs, but it didn't bother us. It is very tastefully decorated with a blend of modern and traditional Hawaiian décor. It was super clean. It didn’t come with any spices or supplies in the kitchen but was otherwise very well equipped. They supply a roll of toilet paper and some hotel sized toiletries in each bathroom, but if you are staying for any length of time, you will need to bring your own. The management company sent us the odd text to check in on us which was convenient since we had a small issue with the toilet in one of the bathrooms. They promptly sent a repairman over to fix it. The location isn’t in town and about a mile walk to the closest shopping centre. I knew this and personally like the location of this complex, as it is conveniently located between Historic Kailua town, coffee country and the wonderful snorkeling at Honaunau. We will be visiting Kona again next year and will try to book this same condo.

Diane was a great host, and was available for any questions. The condo was clean and very well equipped, all the beach toys and towels we could have needed. The master bedroom/bath was large and comfortable. The only thing I wish I had realized when booking was that the 2nd bedroom, is only separated from the kitchen by a vertical blind. And the livingroom by sliding doors. My teenagers would have liked a little more privacy.....I would highly recommend the condo and would definitely Italy rent it again.

This attractively-decorated ground-floor condo had plenty of space for us two Senior couples, a fully-equipped and well-stocked kitchen, plus a pleasant lanai. The location near Ali'i Drive is convenient for driving to stores, beaches, and attractions but also makes night traffic noise inevitable. Unusually hot & humid weather during our stay made us wish for air conditioning, not just the ample ceiling fans, until we figured out the improvement made by closing windows and lowering lanai blinds during the day. We also appreciated the owner's recommendations on activities and shopping.

Well, nothing to complain. Contact with the owner quite quick and easy. Checkin instruction provided in advance and good enough. With polish climate we were afraid about missing Air-co, but in the end it was not needed - we were beg of Oct and open windows and fans were good enough. Location pretty good, but car recommended, nearest shoping centre ar 1km. Beach (white sand) around 4km. Kailua, nearest city centre ar 15' by car. Summarising, if we will visit Kona we to stay int this place again.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Nice open floor plan and the two bathrooms were handy. Unique pull down bed in living room area worked out just fine for our needs and we were surprised by how well equipped the unit was with everything we needed for our stay. Towels, beach towels, laundry soap and dryer sheets, tissues, tp, kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes and all sorts of utensils. We were really surprised about how well stocked it was. The only one potential negative was that although the unit was well equipped with many floor and ceiling fans it was still very hot. The pool was so nice to cool off in and is just across from the unit.

We enjoyed this unit for 19 days in a seasonally unusual heat wave. The heat was uncomfortable but all else was great! Kitchen was well stocked, bathroom shower was really nice and the lanai made for pleasant sunsets! If you have mobility issues this is not for you, read property description carefully. Third floor view is beautiful and worth the climb! If you have difficulty the property management company is responsive.

Diane, your condo and its location is everything that you say it is. This was our 2nd time renting your place as it is so comfortable and located in an area that we also love, Keauhou Bay. Here we can be active as we want whether it be on the water or in it, running, walking or just plain observing the wildlife, flowers and sunsets. Thank you for sharing your happy place.

This is truly paradise. Quiet and relaxing. This condo has everything you need and is perfect. This is our second visit and we have booked our third for next year. Great hosts and gorgeous view. The absolute perfect escape from the stressful life.

Bugs! There was a huge issue with bugs in this condo. The first night a cockroach crawled out from under the pillow onto my arm. The pest control was scheduled to come the following day but did not help. Lots of flying cockroaches and gnats, the entire week of our stay! We have stayed in Hawaii many times and have never experienced this kind of discomfort. The owner was apologetic and sent a $100 gift card as a credit for our uncomfortable stay. While this was nice, I much rather would have had an accurate description of the condo before. This was the absolute worst part of our Hawaiian vacation.

Great spot and it was very fun staying here we did have a problem with checking with the key missing but it was sorted out. I wish they had ac but there is plenty of fans. Over all 8.5 out of 10

I simply love this quiet, small condo complex. I’ve stayed in this complex many times. Such a lovely unit with great views. There’s a very private swimming pool, and you’re close to a Wednesday farmers’ market, grocery and drug store. I highly recommend breakfast nearby at the Kona Country Club. Just a perfect location!

We enjoyed our stay at this stylish, well appointed condo. It is located south of the busy Kona downtown area and is very close to a supermarket and other amenities. The swimming pool is just across the parking lot, and the view is wonderful. The temperature was pretty warm while we were there, but the ceiling and floor fans and the new sun shade on the balcony helped to keep the unit comfortable. The owner responded quickly when we had a questiion.

Actually, my husband and I are resident in this community and I rented this condo for my family. My adopted daughter had a wedding last Aug. 29 and they really like the place as it is just a short walk to my condo and they had a wonderful time with us. Stan, the owner, was a really very accommodating. My adopted daughter and her husband enjoyed every minute ofcit. The view of the ocean from the lanai during sunrise and sunset was awesome. They just left yesterday bringing the wonderful memories of Hawaii. Thank you.

We really enjoyed our stay here! It was perfect for four people (2 couples), having a parking space was very handy, and the view was beautiful! We loved watching the sunset on the lanai. The location was fantastic - we did day trips to the north and south parts of Big Island and this was a perfect home base location.

Overlooks famous golf course and a bit of ocean, well furnished and well equipped, renovated and very comfortable vintage condo. Upscale area. Great sunset views. Pool in the complex was clean, inviting, and uncrowded. Great restaurants nearby, beaches. Six miles to center of Kona. Walking distance to manta ray viewing sites and Keauhoe shopping center. Excellently managed.

The location is good with beautiful views of the sunset. Unfortunately, there is no air conditioning. I wish that had been stated in the listing because it was very hot and humid. There were also quite a few dead roaches and worms and a few live roaches we disposed of. Also, there were no beach chairs or snorkel gear as stated in the listing. We couldn't take the heat. We ended up staying only 2 nights and completed our vacation at the Outrigger resort right next door.
