The view was amazing, but it is next to a very busy and LOUD road. Difficult to get in and out of the locked front door.

Coldwell Bankers are the BEST property managers I've encountered in 15 years of visiting Kona. Mahalo!

Views were beautiful! Couch and chairs may need an upgrade, but we were outside most of the time anyways. Great location, kitchen was well stocked, bathrooms were perfect. Overall, wonderful VRBO!

Lisa is a gracious, outstanding host--fast response, great advice, and unbelievably thoughtful. It felt more like I was staying at a friend-of-a-friend's place and not a rental at all. The condo is also incredibly well kitted out--plenty of beach needs (several snorkel kits w/fins, 2 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and several boogie boards, as well as plenty of beach towels), a very, *very* well-appointed kitchen, and astoundingly comfortable beds with high thread count Egyptian cotton linens. We definitely noticed the details and appreciated them. I could go on for a lot longer, but you should stop reading my comments and simply book this unit if it suits your needs and dates. You won't be disappointed with the location, the unit, or the hosts.

We had a wonderful stay! Highlights included stunning ocean views, well equipped & clean property, very comfortable king sized beds, and location was unbeatable with restaurants and shops right outside the door. Lots of high tech touches.

Location, location, location. and Mark & Mary - were very responsive and accommodating, great hosts. We were walking distance all restaurants on Alii Drive. We were there for 14 days and never ate in the same restaurant twice and the food was great. The condo unit is very well supplied with everything you need. Alii is noisy but quiets down in the evening and worth it for the location. Beaches nearby. The beach at the Pier is great for just a relaxing time and has decent, easy snorkling and is an easy walk. Magic Sands is walking distance and there is a free shuttle to take you to other places. Just minutes away from golf and other beaches.

This property is awesome.and the view is unmatched. We enjoyed just sitting on the Lanai and hearing the waves, watchin people go by, and of course the sunset. Loved that it was right in the middle of town and could walk to everything.

They were kind enough to allow us a very early check in when requested even though they had a guest leave just before. Loved the views. The one thing we did not like is the bedroom had glass slots instead of a real window which made the bedroom pretty noisy.

Wow! The view is amazing!! The location is great as we could walk to shops, restaurants, the beach, and the pier. The condo is comfortable but we spent most of our time either out and about or on the lanai.

Very nice condo in good condition, excellent central location, convenient parking. AC works well, but note that it is necessary to keep the bedroom door open at night for cool air to circulate. A few small things short of a 5-star review, but I would definitely stay here again. Well-equipped and a good value.

What a wonderful and exceptional place to stay. I live in Keaau and one of my dearest friend was visiting from North Carolina. I wanted for her to experience The west side of the island for a few days during her visit. This condo is perfectly located downtown Kona near lots of restaurants and stores. The condo itself is beautifully decorated, and well equipped with anything you may need on your vacation and well maintained. Every detail of our stay was fabulous. I would highly recommend this condo for any occasion when visiting Kona. Will definitely book again in the future.

What a location ! Super close to some great restaurants and shops. The space was really nice - lots of nice touches. We really enjoyed the spotting scope - it was perfect for watching the school of dolphins that came to play one morning.

This is a beautiful unit in an older condo building with an amazing ocean view. It’s only 2 blocks from the farmers market, restaurants and shops in the heart of Kona. There were many amenities and supplies left by former tenants.,The ocean breeze and many fans kept the unit cool even in the heat of the day. The Murphy bed came in handy even for just the two of us. It was nice to have 2 full bathrooms. Check-in was easy even after dark, due to flight delays. Management was very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend this unit and this company.

Everything was nice. Beautiful view. Nice condo. We have stayed at several at Kona Alii. We do have 2 complaints. The door entering for the first time was very difficult till you get the hang of it. The unit also had quite a bit of cockaroaches. Could have used those black roach houses that most units have in them.

Our Kona Alii condo was wonderful. Just as described. Beautiful views. A/C would have made it perfect, but the fans helped a great deal. Location was perfect for us. So close to many restaurants and shopping. We walked everywhere. Will stay here again.

The beach view and parking were ok. The condo was not real clean - kitchen floor, hall bathroom floor, light switches were dirty, and every knife I tried to use from the butcher block was dirty. I attribute this to the cleaning staff. The hall bath shower door doesn't stay closed, and the pumps on most of the shampoos, conditioners, body washes and lotions did not pump. Just as a heads up - we had to call EMS for one of our guests, and the fire department said they didn't have a key to the lobby to get in to help people. My husband had to go let them in. This could be a real problem for anyone that is alone there that needs emergency services. And the upstairs smoke alarm atarted chirping so we removed the battery, which will need to be replaced.

The location was excellent! Enjoyed people watching while we were in the condo. So well appointed. W didn't need for anything. The security of the building and close parking was a big bonus. The pool was amazing. We had a friend over for a visit who lives on the Island and she absolutely loved the place. Great time!

This unit is amazing! We've stayed in 20 vrbos and this was, by far, the best stocked rental we've ever had. The location is so convenient to restaurants and the pier. The building is very secure. We enjoyed the Smart TV, too, as we could hook into our streaming service. We enjoyed coffee on the lanai every morning. What a view! I'd give this 10 stars if I could.

Property location was fine, the area is really loud with excessive noise. The unit and host were fantastic, I wish we could say the same for the building manager. He likes to read into the exiting rules to his interpretations. If your staying for a week or less and going to be taking in the sites during the day it's fine. We stayed 29 days for leisure vacation wanting to utilize the pool and accommodations but unfortunately that didn't transpire. The manager lives above the pool so be aware of how much noise (excessive) your kids make having fun in the pool. I wish we had a better review, but in the 25 yrs of coming to Kona renting condo's this was our worst experience.

This was the worst unit we've ever rented through VRBO! The unit was filthy, mildew/mold in showers, floors were filthy black dirty, unit was hotter than hell, the noise from the basketball/soccer court right outside the unit, the little tiny broken box that she called an AC unit was 8 x 8 and didn't cool ANYTHING! VRBO WAS NO HELP! People like this should be fined! I would never recommend this place or VRBO SERVICES! I stayed with family and refused to stay there. My friend stayed by himself most of the days because he paid for it! We used my sisters AC unit in the living room only, which kept the room at 80 to 85 degrees the whole time! Which was way too hot to stay in! The most disgusting unit EVER!!!!
