Excellent access to restaurants, shops, easy walk. 4th floor with elevator. Good pool. No WiFi, so use hotspot. Some ends of walls are scuffed & marked. Refrigerator outside rusted, inside fine. Microwave small, works ok. Washer/dryer very handy. Size of unit is fine, just needs some TLC.

This was a fantastic place to stay in Kona, right in the heart of old Kona village. It had everything we needed, including plenty of swimming gear like snorkels, masks, fins, and towels. The kitchen was well-equipped with various cooking pans and utensils. We enjoyed a lovely view of the street and the ocean below. There’s also a covered garage for parking if needed. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. I will definitely seek out this place for my next trip to Kona!

Great location in Kona to walk to restaurants and shops. Property has everything you need and more - nicely appointed kitchen, comfy beds, and large balcony/lanai with dining and seating areas. Garage parking and the pool are a plus too. Great communication with host and easy check out instructions. Thank you!!

Towels were thin and only 1 per person available. Lighting was bad, furniture is old and too low to the floor for seniors. Dining table was so large that it was hard to move around. The patio door didn’t lock. Was not what I expected.

I adored this condo! I spent almost every minute on the balcony. It was truly a home away from home.

The property is right in the heart of downtown Kona and surrounded by shops & restaurants, the beach and much more! The condo was perfect for me and my husband. We will definitely stay here again during our next Kona trip!

Beautifully appointed unit. Very nice location for walking to restaurants and activities. Unit was listed for up to 8 people, but really is only comfortable for 4-5 at most. There is no lani or space other than the main room and two beds are also in that room. There were also only chairs to seat 6 and silverware for 6. The bathrooms are nicely done, but very tiny. great supply of snorkel stuff! This is a very nice place but 8 is too many.

Bars and restaurants all within easy walking distance. Nice clean apartment. Only downside was the noise of the leaf blowers every morning from 7am. It’s seems a bit excessive but if they have to do it everyday it would be nice if they started after 08.30am. We didn’t sit out on the Lanai until they finished!

Centrally located in the heart of Kona. Great walking distances to coffee shops/restaurants. The primus key helps(with all doors to get into complex) from Alii drive without having to walk all the way around the complex. The kitchen is great to have if you’re going to cook. If we had binoculars we would be able to see the fire dancers at the luau across the bay from the lanai. I would love to stay here again when we come back to Hawai’i Island.

Nice touch to have beach towels, snorkeling equipment. Sad to say; charging 100 for lost piece of laminated blue paper doesn't seem right.

Location was excellent - close walk to the main shops and restaurants. Inside was clean and comfortable with plenty of space for the 7 of us! Loved that there are two bedrooms and two bathrooms along with washer and dryer. Air conditioning worked perfectly. Appliances and various supplies was well appreciated. Thank you so much! We will absolutely book again next time we’re on the island!

Everything was great. We liked being right downtown close to shopping and restaurants. The sinks in the bathrooms are very slow draining. Loved the daybed on the lanai it got a lot of use.

This unit is located in downtown Kona with an easy walk to many restaurants and many boutique shops. However, the street behind the condo is very noisy with many vehicles blasting terrible music and often without mufflers. Doesn't Kona have a noise ordinance? Also, the building across the street has a very rusty, deteriorating roof that detracts from the ocean view.Even mornings were noisy with trash trucks beeping and someone grinding metal.The condo is cozy, clean, and well-equipped. The bed and pillows were very comfy.The non-working clock was a distraction. The picture of the woman in the bedroom was spooky, with her looking at us.For handicapped people, there was plenty of room to navigate. The toilet was low and difficult to get up from and I needed help. The bath tub has a low wall and a nice skid-free surface. However, there were no grab rails, so I did not use the tub. Too scary.Note: One of the lanai chairs was wobbly and we did not use that.

Can't get a better location in the heart of downtown Kailua-Kona and interactions with the host were timely and thorough. The condo was clean, new appliances, everything worked as it should. The place is loaded.....towels, beach gear, just about anything and everything a couple or family would want. The kitchen is incredible...Everything is stocked and labeled. We absolutely will go back.

Located near downtown, the balcony view is partially obstructed by the building in front. Close to restaurants and stores. The place was clean, and everything, including the air conditioning, cable, and TV, was functioning well. Communication with the host was excellent.

Great location. Loved having my coffee on the lanai every morning. Communication from the property manager was a little much for my taste, but I suppose that’s better than too little communication. This is a great place to stay if you’d rather not rent a car. Occasional uber rides were very affordable (at least when I was there). There are lots of restaurants and shops in walking distance. I stayed here for a wedding, so I had family members who could give me a ride to further out locations such as the national park

Well stocked in every way! Linens, kitchen, food, beach chairs, beach towels, beach wagon, boogie boards, toys. The lanai was perfect for sleeping and lounging in the nice quiet neighborhood. You can’t find a better location in Kona: it’s a short walk to the beach, good restaurants and shopping. We will be back!!

The property is located in a great spot with many shops and restaurants within quick walking distance. The view is ok and the nearby beach isn’t anything great. The property was super clean which was appreciated. The check in process was overly complicated and annoying though with info required on each guest and multiple forms that has to be filled out. Overall was a good experience but if we come back we will stay at Hilo as we didn’t find Kona to be impressive at all.

Loved the location to restaurants and walking about down town. Complex is in need of some updating. Parking garage is a bit scary. Our unit was sufficient for our needs but could use a bit of updating as it is a bit worn looking.

We found Kona Plaza just fine but finding the parking garage was a little more difficult. Check in was easy and it was a nice clean condo meeting all our needs. They didn’t have a cooler but the management took care of it promptly. It’s in a great location to travel to both the south and north shore and close to the airport! There are some nice beaches close and fun shopping centers right outside the condo! We were very happy with how comfortable our unit was. We would go again and enjoy the beautiful sunsets!

I wanted a place I could walk from into the center of Kona and this is the place. Clean and many extras made available for me and my friends to use. Owners are very responsive and their description is very accurate. If you want to experience all that Kona has to offer you can’t go wrong with this condo. Thank you.

Great location! Unit was clean. Loved the spacious lanai. Bath supplies were a little on the light side. Daycare at the church with screaming children was annoying during the week if you were in the unit during daycare hours. One of the beds made loud noises every time you moved but we were able to use the other bedroom which was nice

It was comfortable, clean, and a great location. The two beds in the living room were perfect for my grandsons. It was nicely supplied, including beach chairs and other equipment for enjoying the ocean. The balcony view was of the swimming pool. But there’s a lovely upstairs patio on the fourth floor for viewing the sunset and barbecuing.
