We absolutely loved our stay here, we were in town for the Ironman and it was the perfect location away from the more crowded downtown Kona area, but also just a short drive away. The view from the lanai was beautiful, we spent several hours out there every day watching the waves, surfers, sunrises and sunsets. The condo was very clean and had every amenity we needed as we ate out several times but also cooked as well. I would highly recommend staying here during your visit to Kona.

would think the owner was your next door neighbor. Quick response before and during our stay. Our small family enjoyed the two baths. and found beds to be comfortable. Kitchen was great for morning coffee and night refreshments. We dined out daily but kitchen would be great for cooking meals. The evening sunsets and morning views reminded us, how blessed we are.

The condo was as described. Lovely view of the ocean and pool. As noted by others the fan in the bedroom blows extremely hard (no AC back there). Would be nice to be able to turn it down. Kitchen was stocked well and having a blender to make drinks was nice. Easy walk downtown for food and shopping.

Well-managed condo building, delightful-in-all-ways condo unit. Our favorite activity is to sit on the lanai and watch the surfers right below, but when we got down to the perfect pool/hot tub at the ocean's edge, it was entirely comfortable and fun.

This unit has it all- amazing view, spacious, full kitchen, washer and dryer, nicely furnished and renovated. The condo also had so many ‘extras’ that made our stay with 2 young kids easier- there were kids books and games, a small cooler, boogie boards and a beach umbrella, pool noodles and a few sand toys, a first aid cabinet stocked with items, lots of cooking essentials like spices and oil, a rice cooker, as well as cable tv- in my experience non of these items are expected in a rental but all of them were appreciated! We loved our stay and will certainly be back!

Very nice view and very convenient to town. While there was AC in the master bedroom, it did not cool the whole condo. The second bedroom was too hot/humid to sleep in. The refrigerator was rusty on the outside so it looked dirty.

My wife and I spent two weeks watching the ocean and the surf borders from our unit. It was wonderful. Have been to the big island many times but never this close to the water. Would stay there again.

First time to the big island and we could not have picked a better spot!! Condo is well appointed with everything you need. The view will not disappoint……I promise. Could not be closer to the ocean. Condo complex is close to everything. Renting a car is a must though!! Lots to see on this beautiful island. We will definitely book with Dana again!! We had a fantastic time.

The property was a little worn down. The unit needs some repairs to floors and paint. The location is beautiful and the homeless think so too. There is public beach access right next to the property. The homeless congregate there at night drinking alcohol and smoking. I expected the property to be enclosed but it was not. Parking was not secure. The view is incredible just like the listing.

Amazing view! Entire “front” of unit is windows. Being able to open areas between the master bedroom and living area made the space to feel very roomy. Air conditioning was very comfortable. Need a new coffee maker and blender. Loved the sunsets. Great location!

I have rented condos in different cities 8 times. This condo is the best of them all. Very roomy, laid out very nicely. Covered parking and Kona Trolley stops across the street to take to downtown Kona. So much better than the pictures show. Definitely highly recommend and Dana is easy to work with. Thank you, Dana, for sharing your home with us.

This condo is beautiful - the best view EVER!!! And Dana the host is the most amazing host! We always book VRBO and Dana by far has been our favorite. You can't go wrong with this condo! Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean, plenty of room for a family of four! Perfectly clean! Just all around amazing! We will definitely look to book here again on our next visit to Kona! Thanks for the wonderful stay!

This condo was well stocked, super clean and just what we were after for our family trip. Being right on the ocean was incredible, being able to watch super talented surfers all day and sunsets in the evening. The complex is quiet, clean, and only about 5 minutes from the nearest grocery store. There’s also a super convenient cash only convenience store across the street and a few restaurants and and open air market all within a short walk or drive. We’d love to stay here again at some point.

A perfect condo in the well-designed, well-kept Banyan Tree. Watch the surfers at Lyman's or Banyan's, or join them. Don't plan to be gone from this home at sunset, because there is no better place from which to view the dramatic beauty . Kitchen/baths/bedding/pool/hot tub all just the best. And quiet. Get to know the sea a little better because it is right there to look down upon from your lanai.

My spouse and I spend our 4th year anniversary here, a beautiful location! The apartment is huge, you can see the ocean from almost everywhere. It was so relaxing to just stay in and either have dinner on the balcony or just have a drink looking at the ocean. It also has the perfect sunset location, it feels like you're over the ocean. I honestly don't think you can get a better location than this one in Kona. The owner is super responsive and accommodating, and the place is fully equipped (kitchen utensils, soap, towels, spices, etc.). We would definitely stay here again! SCUBA DIVERS: If you are a diver, there are showers downstairs by the pool where you can rinse off your equipment. It's a short drive to all the dive shops (3-4 minutes). There are several shore-diving spots around the apartment (2-10 minutes).

The unit is lovely and the king bed is very comfortable. The kitchen was very nice and essential items were on hand. The parking was a little challenging due to the pillars. Lots of homeless people around the area.

Very clean , needs updating , no dishwasher , and narrow kitchen. Balcony great to watch surfers and sunsets . On a main-street.. neighbors above seemed like they were clogging and moving furniture . Pool was small but clean . We enjoyed our stay and wished there was a dishwasher other than us .

The location is great! You have a wonderful view of the ocean because it's right there outside your balcony! Listening to the waves at night put us both into a relaxing sleep. The bed is very comfortable along with the living room furniture. Communication with the host Dana was accommodating and she was quick to reply. There is a little market right across the street which is very handy. When we come back to the big island, this is where we will stay. We loved this place!!!

It was our first time in Hawaii and we absolutely loved it! It was heaven on earth. Beautiful views and very quiet. Dana was very easy to get in contact with which made things so easy when we had questions. I would recommend this place to anyone. We definitely hated to leave but we will be back!

This was my third time staying at the Banyan Tree complex, love the view and sound of the waves, watching surfers and dolphins from the balcony with a coffee in the morning. It was my first time staying in this unit, and I have no complaints at all. It was spotless when we arrived and Dana has everything you need in there. Bed in the master bedroom was so comfy it cost me a couple hours on a couple mornings of not wanting to get up!! Lol Look forward to visiting the Big Island and Banyan again in the future.

Beautiful views! Excellent accommodations and fully stocked kitchen with all utensils and small appliances you need to enjoy any meal on the lanai. As a person with mobility issues, the bathrooms were easily navigated as well as the property itself. The air conditioning is a plus. The Owner, Dana, was very quick to respond to any of our questions. Highly recommend this unit for your stay in Kona.

Wonderful location, and terrific host. Dana was very responsive and easy to work with in difficult times. The condo is close to Kailua-Kona town and not far from Kona Airport. The complex has covered parking and a pool that faces the sunset. A perfect way to end a day of exploring. There is also a small surfing spot next to the complex, which is fun to see in an otherwise quiet and secluded area. We would definitely recommend this property. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Although some minor maintenance needs to be done at this condo, the overall stay was excellent. Dana was excellent to work with. We look forward to our next stay here.

Loved staying in Dana's property - very conveniently located (esp. for diving the Kona coast), comfortable apartment, located right on the beach with with beautiful ocean views. We enjoyed watching the surfers every morning and the sunset in the evenings. Dana was also amazingly communicative and responsive when someone parked in our assigned parking spot - she replied within seconds despite being in a different time zone. Highly recommend this apartment; we look forward to staying again!

We really enjoyed our September 2021 visit. Everything described in the listing was accurate and the property was clean. We really liked the location being ocean front but not directly in town so a bit quieter. We loved the covered parking, air conditioning and washer/dryer. To be fair with just two of us, we closed off the second bedroom and bathroom and just cooled the necessary space a bit. The balcony overlooking the ocean would be a bit snug for more than two people but worked well for us for morning breakfast and watching the surfers. Would stay here again.

For our 25th Wedding Anniversary, we were looking for something special and Hawaii fit the bill. We booked in April for a September trip, reasoning that if COVID were to roar back we could cancel. Thankfully we were able to visit and are SO glad that we did. Communications with Dana about the property were absolutely perfect and we asked for a couple of recommendations that proved to be spot on. Right before traveling we got all the information needed to get from the Airport (a short 30 mins) along with parking instructions (you get your own spot under-cover), and how to enter and exit the property. The location is fantastic. Ali'i drive is smack on the shoreline and the condo overlooks the Ocean. We thoroughly enjoyed eating our breakfast on the Lanai, watching the surfers. The place itself is well appointed with SUPER fast Internet and Smart TVs for evenings when you are tired from a day of fun, so you can sign in to your Netflix/Apple/Amazon account and stream movies and TV. The bed in the main area is comfy and you could sleep with the Windows and curtains open on cooler nights. With the Windows closed, the sea is muted but still provides lovely "white noise". Plenty of bowls/plates/cups/cutlery/glasses plus a working range and decent Microwave and a good Fridge/Freezer. Provided Beach Towels were very welcome and also a few beach chairs, beach umbrella, and even a couple of boogie boards. Nearby are a couple of small stores for simple things (water, beer, Ice, etc.) and ten minutes North on Ali'i drive is Kailua Bay with a lot of good restaurants, fantastic sunset views and a few good shops. If catering in is your choice, there is a Safeway less than 15 mins from the Condo and a Walmart. Ten mins South is Kahalu'u Beach Park which is a great place for Snorkeling in a reef area with loads of Fish and a solid chance to see a Turtle or two. If you want to skip the Ocean for a day, there is a small pool, and hot tub on the premises plus a general Lanai area for everyone to use to take in the Sunset. We stayed for a whole week and it is a truly wonderful place to stay and we would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone.

Supreme oceanfront location and a spacious, super clean condo! The ocean view doesn’t get better than this. 2 bdrm 2 bathroom was perfect for our family of 4. It was nice to have a laundry area inside the condo but the dryer heat wasn’t venting outside so it could get warm inside. Beware of small ants on the countertop so keep food tightly sealed in pantry or in fridge. Sink faucet had a leak but Dana was able to get a plumber to fix it quickly. Designated parking spot in the covered lot is great to have. Would love to stay here again.

This condo is awesome. We loved out stay. It's super close to everything and views off the balcony are amazing. Being able to listen to the ocean when relaxing in the balcony or falling asleep in the master bedroom were exactly what we were looking for. The property recently became a 'no drone zone' (you can fly from a public beach 3minute walk away). The management on property that made that decision to ban drones did not let the condo owner know so it was not posted in the listing. This was unfortunate but the condo owner was very great at communicating with us when trying to figure out where I could fly out from. Definitely glad we booked and were able to stay here.



July 2021
This place was wonderful! The view alone was amazing. Beautiful sunsets from the Lanai every evening were the best. The condo was very clean and very well stocked. Located across the street from a market was great for last minute items. Very close driving distance to many beaches/activites. Owner was super responsive if I had a question. Great Trip!!

We loved everything about this place. The location is very convenient and close to town. The little beach right next to the property seems small but is super fun to explore. The rooms were clean and the kitchen was well stocked. There were games for kids to play, and watching surfers in the morning at in the evenings was just awesome. The one thing we regret is that next to main bed is a small slatted window which we didn't notice till our last day. You can crack it open to get the sounds of the waves while not affecting the cooling of the room too much. Wish we had discovered is earlier. Also, you might notice that the place seems a bit smaller than it looks in the photos, especially the balcony but that is only a first impression. Once you settle in, open the curtains, get the amazing views of the water fill the entire living area, you (likely) won't think about that at all. All in all a great experience and we're looking forward to being back sometime.
