This property is absolutely breathtaking — definite “wow” factor when you walk in!SUPPLIES: So many beach supplies — chairs, big sun umbrellas, beach towels, sun hats, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, kids’ floaties, and even tennis racquets with balls. Too many to list!KITCHEN: Super well stocked with everything you’d need to cook a gourmet meal.LANAI: Our favorite spot! It’s spacious with plenty of comfy furniture. We ate all our meals out there, relaxed on the loungers, and watched the stars at night while listening to the waves. Pure bliss.KNUTSON: Very attentive and responsive. I probably messaged them a few too many times with questions, but they were always kind and quick to reply.No doubt we’ll be booking this property again the next time we visit Kona.Thank you, Knutson!

The unit is nice and in a nice complex. Beautiful sunset view. There are gas grills in the common area which were very well maintained.

This place has water front and sunset views and they were amazing. It has everything you need for cooking and cleaning. They had beach chairs,Noodles, boogie boards, beach towels and ice chests. They had plenty of beds so nobody had to sleep on a sofa bed. The AC worked great. Outside is a beautifully manicured setting with Bbq areas, it was quiet, I just can’t say enough about this property. It was like being at home - they provided everything.

Great ocean view for watching sunset. Short drive to Magic Sands Beach. Everything you need for beach day was provided and nice little welcome package. Everything clean, fully stocked kitchen and washer and dryer. AC was great, with ceiling fans in all spaces including the lanai. Comfortable beds, plenty of space for 4 adults.

Excellent communication with owner. Excellent amenities-beach chairs, umbrella, snorkeling gear, beach shoes, kids sand toys etc The only negative is the mattress on both beds in the 2nd bedroom need replaced. There is an egg crate to mask both beds worn mattresses. When you are away and on vacation, the 2 most important factors are cleanliness and comfort of the beds, (linens, pillows, mattress). The owner really needs to replace the mattresses in this VRBO.

Absolutely incredible stay. Beautiful corner unit. Sunset Views are impeccable. Away from the Hussle and Hussle of the town but close enough to all shopping and restaurants. 10/10 recommend this property. Host is incredibly friendly and responsive.

Lovely condo in great location, panoramic ocean views. Only downside is that there is no AC & it did get quite warm a couple days without breezes. Fans in the unit are definitely helpful & not so bad when there is a nice breeze coming through. Morgan was prompt & helpful in answering questions & accommodating to needs.

Great setup for couple or small family. Waterfront, patio with ceiling fans, the AC and two bathrooms were highlights for us. Super helpful and easy to work with host. Will for sure keep this on the list for future visits.

The rental was absolutely amazing! My family and I loved our stay there. The place has everything you need for a lovely stay in Kona - beach items, a fully usable kitchen, grills outside, and recreational items. There’s even a patio area where you can take in all the beauty of the area and relax or even eat. The downside is that we eventually had to say goodbye to the place. The check in process was easy and the owner was so responsive with our inquiries. You won’t be disappointed with your stay here. Thank you so much for providing a home away from home!

The location is good, and it was easy to check in. We didn't have any problem with the AC upstairs, so it was comfortable despite the hot weather. But the interior is quite dated and felt a bit grimy. The sinks and other parts of the house had hard water stains and rust in places. The kitchen was somewhat run down, as well. None of these were big problems, but I'd probably look for a different place if we come back to the area.

The unit was clean but needs some updating. The garbage disposal didn’t work at all and some of the bath towels had holes and discolorations in them. We know Kona can be unusually warm but even with all the windows and fans running it was still hot for sleeping. I would suggest that the management consider some AC especially for the bedrooms upstairs.

There is not enough space to tell you everything - but 10 out of 10. The place was awesome - and the view - which you can see right as you come in the door - and from the living room - and from the bedroom - and from the lanai - is the best ever! I could have sat on the lanai the whole week - and done nothing else. The sunsets were so beautiful. Birds chirping and coming down and visiting - they are always in pairs - so cute. The condo had EVERYTHING! Anything you needed in the kitchen (even seasonings - dishwasher soap - coffee pot(s) - etc. etc.) And anything you would need to go to the beach - chairs, umbrella, water shoes, snorkle equipment, ice chests. The showers and bathrooms had everything you needed too. The AC was great! Fans are great! Wifi was great! My husband out of the 4 of us was the only one that watched some TV - and he said that was great! There's a guest book in the condo - that gives tips and suggestions - we did the all day trip they had suggested and it was the best day of our trip!! Everything is just beautiful in Hawaii - and this condo was amazing. There is a restaurant close by that is up on a hill by the condo - and it was delicious. There is a shaved ice place close by - yummy! I had one everyday!! There's a grocery store right there too. We just loved - Kona Hawaii - and loved this condo - and the host Christine was very responsive - before - during and after! I can't wait to go again.

We had a lovely stay at Tony's place. He was very communicative and friendly, made sure we were happy and had everything we needed. All the instructions for how to care for the place were very clear. The kitchen was well stocked. Everything was very comfortable and clean. The water pressure was good. The air conditioners were incredibly effective. We enjoyed sitting out on the Lanai as well. The pool was clean and a nice place to relax and read. There was a beautiful rocky overlook to the ocean within the complex where we watched the sunset. There's a shopping plaza nearby where you can get coffee, a local bookstore with kitties to pet, a grocery store and pharmacy, everything you could need. This was a perfect home away from home to stay in while in town for the Ironman. Would stay again!!

Absolutely beautiful location and condo! It was so spacious! I loved the location and the balcony was a beautiful place to watch the sunset over the rocky ocean coastline. We also enjoyed that this location was about a mile away from a shopping center that had many restaurant options, so we didn't have to go far after a day of exploring the island. Management texted every day to check in and make sure we had what we needed and that the condo met all our needs. Would absolutely come back!

October 2025
the pros: enjoyed the lanai. the coolers, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, the many beach towels and beach chairs was a huge plus! pantry also had oil, salt, pepper, even a rice cooker as we ended up cooking half of the time here since there wasn't much restaurants nearby and everything closes so early. glad to have a sofa bed that actually works and the beds were comfy. had Tupperware so we could pack a beach lunch too. I also didn't see a single cockroach! did find a baby gecko in the bathroom that we released back outside. mosquitos also kept coming in somehow despite having closed screens. now the cons: had trouble finding the place, for those reading this review, upon entering the gate, turn left until you hit building 6. no AC but portable AC units would've been nice. I thought the heat was tolerable, but my family said it was too hot even with all the fans blowing. the bath towels were extremely worn and stained. we did tell mgmt they need new ones, so hopefully the next guests will have some new towels. more toilet paper, paper towels, and laundry detergent would be nice. although it was stated in the agreement, if this is a place for 8 people, 4 rolls of toilet paper will barely last 2 days. at least there was enough soap and shampoo. for those who like to sleep in, birds start chirping pretty loudly at exactly 6am, and we couldn't fall back asleep afterwards.overall, I would return to stay again. enjoyed our stay. mahalo.

You cant beat the view. Extra amenities like the beach chairs and cooler was really nice to have. But the unit could use a really good deep clean. The dining room table has not been cleaned in a very long time. Layers of dust visible on the walls. Other splatter stains visible on the walls. Soap scum build up in the showers.

The condo was perfect. A/C and ceiling fans in each room, beautiful view, washer & dryer, parking was pretty close. Other than no elevator, the property is perfect (and honestly, the stairs were only an inconvenience carrying our luggage up the first day). The property and condo were pristine. The entire condo was stocked with everything we needed, as a lot of items were left behind by others, which was fabulous! I would definitely stay here again. Mahalo Dennis for responding promptly and for a beautiful stay!

The unit was well equipped, clean and perfect for two couples. The location is central to everything. It got a little warm at times, so grateful for the abundance of fans. The ocean view is very peaceful and hearing the waves crashing or rain falling was soothing. Love the Big Island!

We come to Kona almost every year. This condo was one of the nicest we've stayed in. The ocean waves kept us very relaxed. The kitchen was well equipped and the living room furniture very comfortable. There was also a good supply of beach equipment. Even though there is no AC, we were very comfortable with the ceiling fans and ocean breeze. I highly recommend this unit.

Kitchen and bathrooms were clean as were the linens but the condo needs a deep cleaning, i.e., top of fridge, under beds and inside drawers and cupboards. Some dishes are chipped and many kitchen cabinet doors don't close properly. Host was excellent. The location, the grounds and buildings, and the pool were all excellent. Blake Kessner was always quick to respond to our questions. Check-in was easy. We would choose this property in the future and recommend it to friends.

We loved it here. It was absolutely gorgeous and a perfect location. Only thing that really bothered me was we asked for early check-in and even offered to pay, they told us no because the cleaners had to clean it. We had all of our luggage after a long travel day and so we didn’t want to leave our car we Were at the property and there was no cleaners inside. We text them asking if we could pay for early check-in and they said no the cleaners were still there which they weren’t. We text again asking and they said no. Just frustrating when we offered to pay money

Great location within easy walking distance to local snorkel beach, shopping and private-like black sand tide pool beach next door to complex. Kitchen was well equipped to cook at home. Owners closet had beach chairs, pool toys and other items to use. Grounds are beautiful, well maintained and home to many types of birds. Unit could use some maintenance to drywall around washer and dryer but both were clean and usable. Be aware that you will need to sign a contract with rental company and pay extra for insurance for this unit. The master bedroom is open to the living area with only a sliding screen for privacy which wasn't an issue for us as we had no other guest. Second bedroom had twin beds with a door. Management was accessible by phone if needed and provided a nice welcome treats. We enjoyed our stay here and would consider staying here again.

Great location and beautiful view. Smaller than appeared online but gorgeous. Could use some decluttering with the faux plants and grandma's dishes filling the cabinets. Beds are wonderfully comfortable. Lots of extras with beach towels, gear, coolers, ect. Loved the shopping center close by. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets every night. Rocky beach for nice picnics right outside the door. Great tidepools with LOTS of sea urchins. Wouldn't have small children here. Perfect for our group of 4. I'd use the term "air conditioning" loosely. The livingroom unit didnt work, there were also electrical problems with the lights and fans in the main living space. Great check in book with lots of recommendations. Overall, we had a great time. Our biggest recommendation would be to address all the rude cardboard sloppy notes left all over the unit. Several sharpie cardboad notes left in every room telling you not to turn on a/c, dont use pullout sofa, fines if you touch this, ect. Very off putting for a beautiful space. Consider putting all these demands in your check in letter and not all over the condo.
