The condo was clean & well stocked, the bed was comfortable, and THE VIEW!!! Had a great stay, hope to come back some day.

Clean and comfortable condo. Bigger than we thought it would be. Great location for nearby beaches, snorkeling and visiting Kona. We could see the beautiful waves and fish right from our balcony. Amazing sunsets.

Bed very comfortable. Location is perfect near beaches and kona. Needs some repairs to lights in kitchen as makes difficult to use kitchen early and late in day. Lack of working roller shades is a negative.

This place is very spacious (being on the corner). It had everything we needed to visit the beach. Cooler, chairs, towels, etc. We only stayed a few nights, but the reserved parking space was very nice and the beach next door was perfect for afternoons. A major grocery store is just mins away via car. Lots of windows let you watch the ocean, and fish activity.

The condo was a fantastic place, loved that it was a corner unit so it had great views of the beach. As described in the listing, the condo was fully stocked with the necessities.

The condo was comfortable for us even with two teenagers. It is beautiful to watch the sunset every night. We were grateful to be able to use the cooler, beach chairs, and boogie board. We would have tried the snorkel gear but we were advised the surf was too high while we were there. Parking and location is easy. We ate at the onsite restaurant but also went into town for dinner a few nights. Even though the Magic Sand beach was “out,” it was stunningly beautiful. We drove south to Captain Cook, north to Kohala coast, over to the east side of the Island, and around Kona for adventures. We appreciated having this condo as our home base.

The view was stunning - ocean view on two sides. You might not want to leave the condo! It is bright and spacious. Plenty of storage. The bed is comfortable, but I chose the sofa bed to be next to the window to view the ocean. All the equipment you need to prepare breakfast or lunch (for dinner, better to plan leftovers, take-out or eat out - once the sun is down the cooking area is a bit dim for meal prep) The blue ice in the freezer was great for packing food and snacks when we went exploring. Beach equipment, Plenty of towels. No folding rack to hang suits & towels to dry, but I had an elastic clothesline. We enjoyed the pool too. We ate twice at the on-site restaurant. The Condo is also a short drive to other shops and places to eat. Overall, wonderful and relaxing.

Nice condo with great ocean view in a reasonable location. Unfortunately the Magic Sands were magically gone and the beach was rocky and gnarly. Kind of rough surf for my taste and ability. We could see lots of yellow tang fish and black ones from the window when the sun came out and the wind was not blowing. Saw the whales breaching from the window and a pod of dolphins. My main problem was with the mirrors on almost every surface. Confusing for me although I know it is to make the room seem larger. Needs another shade in the kitchen to keep the lights from the highway in front from reflecting off the mirrors and windows. You don’t hear the road much because the surf is roaring almost constantly like a train going by. I got used to it. It’s really close. About 20 feet away. Even though the pictures look like the condo has one, there is no balcony. It was curiously removed to make the rooms larger. Not a new building but mostly well maintained. A good stay all things considered.

Had a issue on first night with oven, because of time difference between Hawaii and Canada I was not able to get anyone that night. But in the morning owner did contact us and fixed issue. Great location, 5-star view, had everything anyone could need.

This condo is right next to the waves. Never thought id get tired of the waves but winter swells almost did it. But not quite. Waking up and seeing up and down the coast with the help of the mirrors was at first disconcerting but after i got used to it. It was awesome to see every direction all at once. A very great location and your own parking space was also a bonus. We arrived on a very late midnight flight and no worries about finding or getting into our condo. This is a corner apt, the view is incredible. And ted was quick and to the point in correspondences. There are coolers on site and found the chairs and boogie boards, along with other treasures on the last day. Right in the closet.

Very clean, comfortable, private, well-equipped and spacious condo! The floor to ceiling windows made you feel like you were right on the water! We watched humpback whales breaching offshore. The beach adjacent to the property was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the sun and water - seeing the sea turtle in the surf was a special bonus! Would definitely recommend and hope to return soon!

Comfortable, convenient, great location, amazing views. We had everything we needed for a wonderful stay, including a great beach next door and a restaurant on-site. We loved watching the sunsets and dolphins swimming by.

Ted's place is awesome and exactly as described. If it were any closer to the water you would be wet and right next to one of the best beaches on the island. The grill had decent not great food but was perfect after a 12 hour trip from Boston. We will absolutely stay on our next trip to Kona. Thanks for the memories Ted.....

The views from the condo were even better than we had dreamed. There's more than enough room for two, and everything was clean and functional. We loved the convenience to Magic Sands Beach & the fantastic Magic's Restaurant next door, and the central location was perfect for exploring more of the island. Mahalo for sharing this sweet spot!

We had a wonderful stay. The location is perfect and the waves crashing feet away from the property made it even better. We loved having Magic Sands beach right there to enjoy. While we were there they had some pretty big surf so the crashing waves were bit loud at night but that earplugs didn’t fix. The only issue we had was the unit wasn’t cleaned when we arrived at 7:30 pm. We called the management company and they were fantastic! They had someone there within minutes and she took care of everything while we stepped out to get a bite to eat. She even dropped off more supplies the next day. The condo was well stocked with everything we needed including items for a day at the beach. We will be back!

This is a beautiful place. The pictures undersell the property. The view is unbelievable and you can really see yellow tangs in the water from your room. The beach is right next to property and it was a fun beach with snorkeling. The room was clean and well stocked. There were a lot of beach toys also. Great place!

This place has lovely views of the ocean, a great location and good cooling systems. With fans everywhere ac units and 3 sliding glass doors. Overall would recommend. It did however have some issues. 1. The listing talks about bugs, what it doesn’t say is that there are 2 floor to ceiling gaps in the wall to the outside you can fit a finger through. So expect bugs, since nothing is keeping them out. We found a large dead cockroach in the space when we checked in. 2. If you have kids note that there are roach traps all over, and tools and traps in unlocked cabinets in the space. 3. There was a curtain that was stuck down, the exterior screen door handle fell off when you pulled it, potentially trapping you in, one section of glass was broken in place and could be picked up (sharp). nothing awful but want to call it out 4. The management company’s phone number was wrong in all the emails I got. Thankfully it was the in the building. Overall though the views make it all worthwhile

The exterior glass walls gave us a magnificent view of the ocean as well as the beautiful park to the north! The mirrors made it seem even larger with ocean views in every direction! The property was well stocked with everything imaginable for our extended stay. Hope to stay there again some day.

The location is good and with good view. But the condo is old. There are dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we got in the condo. There is only one blind in the kitchen and living area which facing the park lot. Feel lack of privacy. Two homelessness guys stayed in the corridor beside our front door for one night. The property is not well managed.

We stayed on a corner condo and it was amazing!! The condo was clean, perfect size for a couple and right by the beach. We loved hearing the waves crashing at night, slept amazing!

We love the ocean sounds and view.



June 2023
Nice unit with killer view. Floor to ceiling windows on west and north sides with ocean view. Older unit, but in good shape. Slept with all sliding doors open most nights to the roar of the surf. Used air conditioning a few times. Has pool and lawn area not accessible or visible to the public -- had it to ourselves most of the time. Corner parking spot right outside the unit with lots of room to open the car doors, but with 2 flights of stairs. Lots of yellow fish, black fish and eels visible in water from unit. Beach to the south and park to the north of the building.

With the ocean view and proximity to the beach and an in building restaurant , this listing has everything your looking for.

We usually stay at VRBO properties whenever traveling. If you are independent and would rather do everything yourself rather than having hotel staff looking after you then VRBO is for you. The property at Magic Sands ranks at the top of all places we have stayed. Location was excellent, with close proximity to local residents, and eating places. The restuarant on property is great. Just understand that everything in Hawaii is MUCH more expensive. Groceries included. We love this place and will return soon.

Couldn't be any closer to waves without getting wet. Priceless view. All needed for beach time included: beach chairs, umbrella , boogie boards, fins, cooler. Some condiments. Comfortable bed plus hideabed and futon. Plenty of towels, dishes. And did we say a fantastic view. AC works well but not needed now as great temperature in may. Would definitely stay here again. Close to great snorkeling, shops, restaurants.


James T.
May 2023
The third-floor corner unit was wonderful. We would open up all the sliding doors and enjoy the expansive views of the ocean. Kona trolley offered convenient transport into town. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. My only constructive criticism would be the bed… it is a Queen and a bit soft, resulting in sore morning-backs. I guess maybe some beach towels would be cool too. Other than that, the place was stellar! Way better in person than pics!

My family and I had a memorable 3-night stay. The reviews and owner's description are very accurate. You really can't get a more perfect location on the water, waves crashing, beautiful sunsets at dinner. Kitchen is well stocked with necessities for making your own meals. You're in a central location; a short drive from downtown but there's a large shopping center with KTA/Longs/Shave Ice, etc just a couple minutes away. My son and I were relegated to the fold-out couch and I gotta say it was the most comfortable I've ever slept on. There were drink coolers, a beach chair, and snorkel equipment. The silicon rings attaching the snorkels to the masks were all missing, but that's pretty minor. Pool was great, never crowded. Minor cleaning issue; the top of the refrigerator was very grimy. It was as if it had never been cleaned before which is surprising since it's a natural storage place next to the sink. (You wouldn't be able to see up there unless you're over 5'10") Otherwise, the whole place was very clean on arrival. Also, be prepared, the building is not bright, shiny new construction. It's more Motor Lodge than fancy Hotel, but that's to be expected at this price point. Overall the condo absolutely met our expectations and we would absolutely rent again. Strongly recommend.

Enjoyed our stay - would absolutely rent this unit again. Pros: 1) The view! Corner unit right on the ocean with a perfect view of the sunset. 2) On site restaurant surprisingly good. 3) Unit has everything you need to enjoy the big island, boogie boards, snorkel gear, beach towels, coolers. 4) Unlike some rentals, some basics are not cleaned out (coffee, coffee filters, sweeteners, laundry supplies). Much appreciated not having to buy some of these things. 5) sound of waves to put you to sleep 6) AC worked great 7) Remodeled unit - new tile floors and large modern bath Cons: 1) those waves can be really loud sometimes 2) the building itself doesn't look the most appealing from the road, and I'm still trying to figure out what's going with the patio area above the restaurant for those 2nd floor units. (we stayed here 15-ish years ago and I thought those units had nice patios? but now it looks like an abandoned construction project / eyesore) Also, beware the beach next door can be hit or miss depending on conditions and tides, etc. While we were there there was little to no beach to enter the water. Location is great too - short drive into Kona where you can find restaurants, shops, etc.

Spectacular waterfront property! We enjoyed watching the sun set and listening to the waves crash every night. Free shuttle to downtown and nice beach right next door. Great restaurant on site.

The unit was gorgeous, well equipped and with plenty of storage space. And the views were breathtaking. A winter storm removed the sand from the beach (hence, Magic Sand), but the huge waves gave a spectacular show. Parking was convenient and the stairs were on the corner, leading right up to the unit. The location is convenient for seeing the sights all around.

Checking in was easy and convenient. Checking out was very difficult........ Didn't Want To Leave.........Relaxing hassle-free awesomeness. We left the doors / windows open all night long, every night I slept on the hide a bed. Most comfortable hide a bed I've ever slept on. The minor imperfections that I have mentioned below are only for the owners benefit. We did not notify the maintenance crew while we were there or I'm sure they would have fixed it promptly. These minor details would definitely not keep us from renting there again. Loved it.. There are a couple repairs that need to be made on the interior. The only one that impacted our visit was the roller blind on the left side. We had to make shift clip it so that we could keep it raised in order to enjoy the entire West view. Beach/snorkel equipment needs to be replaced. Broken lawn chair, broken snorkel fins. We did not check out/use the beach umbrella, hard side cooler or snorkle masks.

This is one of our favorite places to stay on the Big Island. Thanks!

Our stay was amazing. Very clean and comfortable space. They had snorkeling stuff, beach chairs and boogie boards for your use. The property is located right net to a beach park, close to the shopping centers. Yoy can see tropical fish from the sliding doors it really is paradise!!

The top floor has amazing views and next to the beach and park. The corner unit is more spacious than other units in the building. It actually has a comfortable pull-out couch. There are beach/snorkel supplies and a cooler. The window viewing chairs were removed, probably due to previous negative comments but it would be nice to get more chairs in there. The linens were sparse as there was no blanket for the pull-out couch and only 4 bath towels. Otherwise, the condo was AMAZING.


Matt K.
January 2023
This was our 2nd time in this unit. We love it. 180 degree view, close to everything, stocked with everything you need for a week at the beach. If it became available for sale I'd buy it yesterday. We used the pool this time, met some nice folks who lived there. Watched a massive storm come in for a couple days...Unforgettable.

It was so hard to leave this condo with its unobstructed and infinite view of the ocean. The unit had everything we needed - beach towels and chairs, comfortable bed, great A/C for nighttime, and the location was convenient and great. We will be back!

Beautiful views every angles. Next to local park and beach. You see tropical fishes and dolphins right from the sliding doors. Great snorkeling spots right in front of condo. Everything you need for a Hawaii vacation including ice chests, umbrella, and boogie board. Ted is a great host and very accommodating. Definitely come back again if visiting big island.

This is a difficult review to write. The good first: The location is AMAZING! We even saw dolphins right out the windows of our condo. No road noise even tho you are conveniently right on Ali’i drive. Air conditioner worked great! Pool was nice, and we enjoyed using the BBQ and kitchen. Check in was easy and there was many more supplies than we thought there would be.There was salt /pepper soy sauce, oil, coffee grinder, coffee filters, dish soap, hand soap, dishcloths 1roll of paper towels, and 2 rolls of toilet paper. I brought things I didn’t need to bring. What I should have brought was garbage bags! (There was only 2 for 8 nights) Now why I feel I had to take off a star. The condo is in desperate need of an update. All the furnishings are worn out completely. Except the couch. It seemed newish. The sink was backed up. There are only 2 electrical outlets in kitchen and one was broken and dangerous and there was a giant dead cockroach when we got there. Also the fridge leaks water all over the top shelf. All of these could be very fixable and the place would be amazing 5 stars! We called management and never got a response. I was pretty worried that there were live bugs. We stayed anyway and we never saw live bugs. We also the pest control people come while we were there - so they are trying. I hope this is a fair review to help make a decision to rent or not. And I hope the condo gets its update bc it’s in a very cool location.

If you want direct oceanfront then this is the place for you. The space is comfortable and there’s lots of storage. The unit is a bit more worn than expected but has everything you need for studio condo living while on vacation. The sandy beach next door is wonderful!

This property had the most incredible view I have ever had in any location. You are right on top of the water with the crashing waves. Very close to a beach which is a rarity in most of the big island. The rooms inside were well set up.

We absolutely loved this property. The condo is a top floor corner unit with all the expected amenities and a few unexpected bonuses (boogie boards!). We’ve stayed at most of the premier properties in Kona, but this might be our new favorite. And special shout out to Magics Grill: nice to have a full service restaurant on property.

This apartment has a very nice view on the ocean and very cool to be so close to White sand beach. However, The air conditioning was not working when we arrived. We tried to communicate with the owner and he never answered. We never had any e-mail from him to help nor to apologize. It was so hot for our first night. Someone from the local contact finally called us back on the next day. She said it was repaired but it was not when we came back in the condo at the end of our second day and still so hot. We had to call her again. She was nice and came back to finally fix it. The condo is not for 5 since there is not any fitted sheet nor any cover sheet for the extra mattress so thin even for a kid. Air dryer was not working.

Overall my partner and I had a great stay. The room was stocked with some essentials such as towels, cleaning supplies, toilet paper, etc. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, silverware, pots and pans. There were even some beach equipment included for us. The location is right on the beach. It was easy to just hang out in the water without bringing anything and just walk back up to the room to clean up. The room being directly adjacent to the beach does have some downside though such as noise from the street and all the traffic going to the beach. It's to be expected with a location like this, but something to be aware of. The only real complaint I have is that the kitchen area only had one set of blinds. The sun shines into the kitchen in the morning and heats up the room. The AC does help to combat this, but it can only do so much. There is also a park area adjacent to the kitchen side so at some angles, people can see into the room.

This unit is a top floor corner waterfront studio facing the south and west. Just right for a couple. Great views and sunsets and convenient to beaches and Kona town. The restaurant in the complex is nice and the staff friendly. We would recommend for a couple looking for a less expensive waterfront place to stay.

Beautiful, clean, full of light oceanfront condo. Everything you need for a stay: kitchen well-equipped (ice trays in freezer, thermos, coffee maker, foil), lots of storage, great beach gear (snorkeling masks and fins, umbrella, chairs, boogie boards, cooler). Pool was very nice. Had everything you might need for a perfect vacation. Owner communicated well. We would love to come back for a longer vacation and enjoy this beautiful condo!

First time to Kona. Had no idea what to expect and were pretty happy. The unit is a little worn but perfectly fine. The star is the wrap around view. And we loved the the on site restaurant. Too bad Magic Beach was not totally usable for us since the sand was out bc of the weather. The AC was good, the unit was well stocked, the bed was ok. Good value for the price.

Cute studio, right on the water so close you can see the fish in the waves! Plenty of towels and sheets, has dishwashing soap, etc. Bad part was when we got here and called to get the code for the door, no one picked up the phone. We called for 45 minutes. Finally texted the emergency number and got a person to call us back. that was annoying. Instructions said to call...

This was an amazing propery with a sea of windows--literly feet from the ocean's edge. Super clean and the host was very friendly and took great care/pride in his unit. The only (what could have been a downside) was that we thought we were renting a one-bedroom condo as we were continplating bringing my mother with us, this unit is more a studio than a one bedroom and sleeping with a guest would have been uncomfortable. I loved the art work and the all glass corner! The only thing that, in my opinion only, would have made the place look/feel classier would be to update the bedspread (felt a little dated/Motel 6ish). Overall a great stay! Thank you! Kristin

Being right on the ocean was amazing. Location to different beaches is just right. The only issue is the sound of the waves. The waves are very loud. If this is not a concern be sure to book this location. We did not use the pool. The beach chairs and towels was a great addition.

Simply walking in and seeing nothing but ocean! That did it. It’s the first place I've ever stayed that was greater than my expectations. I'm ALWAYS let down, but not THIS time! Beyond the view and sound of ocean, it had everything we needed for a pleasant stay, and the location was great too.

The 180 degree of the Pacific ocean was amazing. The building has a very good restaurant on site which was great. The condo was a bit dated and definitely needs much of the upholstery cleaned or replaced. We had a few issues that the property management addressed quickly.

There is a reason why in four trips to Hawaii we always stay at this unit, Magic Sands Unit 314. It has everything we need: right next to an amazing beach, you do need to be confident in water and pay attention to the life guard flags. Beach chairs, beach umbrella, boogie boards and snorkle gear and great towels for the beach. We ended almost every evening with "beverages" on the beach in comfy sand chairs provided by the condo owners watching the amazing sunsets and then just a quick across the parking lot to our unit. With two walls of floor to celing windows and sliders its like you are living in an aquarium. The location, while on a busy street, you never take notice because the sound of the waves. Lulled me to sleep every night. We also like the location more so than the resorts up North. Within 10 - 30 minutes you are in prime snorkling territory one way or into town the other or up into the hills to the coffee growers. Very conveniently located to grocery shopping and essentials and many great farmer's markets. The unit was very clean and tidy with attention to detail by the cleaners. Thank you Ted for another great stay!

Oceanfront Property, located right next to Magic Sands Beach. Sleep with the sound of waves crashing, wake up to the sights of fishes and surfers in front of you, and watch amazing sunsets in the evening. 2 Split ACs keep the room cool. Basic amenities provided - towels, beach chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, steam iron, utensils and basic cooking supplies.. Very comfortable stay.

Just a perfect place to stay. Great location. The ocean is key here. You open up and you are right on the water. Listened to the waves crash all night. It was clean and had what we needed. Made the first few nights of our vacation ocean magical.

My wife and I stayed in this same condo complex 18 years ago for our honeymoon. We came back with our now 11 year old son. We were not disappointed. The location is perfect. Amazing views (and sounds) of the ocean and great views of the mountains and waterfalls. My entire family loves golf at Princeville Makai and it may be one of the most scenic golf courses in the world. Hideaway Beach was tough to get to compared to 18 years ago. It is not for the weak of heart. But it is a private beach great for laying out and getting a tan and for enjoying some snorkeling. The only issue is road construction. Be sure to check out construction on the island. There are few roads on the island and any construction can lead to delays for your plans. Overall, of the 3 times I have been to Hawaii, Kauai is by far my favorite island and Princeville is the place to be. This condominium's owner is awesome and responsive. I would definitely stay here again.

This place has the best views I've ever seen! I would definitely rent from here again. It was very hard to leave. Being surrounded my The views and sounds are hard to describe. I would definitely recommend.

Perfect for two people. Conveniently located right next to magic sands beach with bar and restaurant on location. Beautiful five star view. Only wish it had a balcony, but would stay there again for the view and location.

As soon as we walked in the door, we knew we made the perfect choice. The view is amazing! This is NOT within easy walking distance of the town or restaraunts, so plan to bike or drive. However, having the beach next door was perfect!

There was 2 downfalls we made numerous attempts to contact property manager via phone call and text and there was no reply. As far as the tv, we could not find a DVD player as it mentions that there is one and the Spectrum Service was not great, it kept saying no signal

Beautiful sunsets, sliding doors open to breaking waves below where you can see tangs and other fish, and lots of light. We had a great stay here.

The view is astounding, and the close proximity to Magic Sands Beach is quite nice. For two days, we grabbed the provided beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, boogie boards, cooler, and snorkel gear and lounged at this small but pretty beach. The kitchen was reasonably well equipped. In an effort to aid anyone in determining what to bring, I will list what was present for us: pots, pans, utensils, aluminum foil, plates, cups, wine opener, corn oil, salt, pepper, soy sauce, sesame oil, balsamic.

In addition to a beautiful studio with sunset views that are breathtaking, the location was perfect! Beach, restaurant, pool, snorkeling and turtles all two steps from the place.

We enjoyed looking at the fish out the front windows. Water was a little rough for swimming or snorkeling while we were there. We had a great time and would visit again

We loved staying at this condo. So close to the ocean that you can see the fish and turtles on the reef below. Really well equipped with heaps of clothes storage and fridge space. We didn't need to use the aircon because there are 3 ceiling fans.

This condo is all about the killer view and the prime location. There is a peaceful park to the right and White Sands Beach to the left.What more can you ask for -to be able to walk a Hundred yards to swim on a beautiful beach is a huge draw plus there is a small pool behind the condo that is very clean and peaceful.There are a few repair issues such as no refrigerator handle,a screen door handle that falls off every single time you go in or out--and I do mean every time.Also kitchen faucet is about ready to fall off and is very hard to use to wash dishes with as it is way too big for the tiny sink,But---that being said,they are minor. This location is a GEM and we were very h appy with it and the price, I would recommend it to any couple staying in the Kona area.

The views were amazing and the condo had everything we needed for a great vacation. It was just my wife and I and there were beach chairs, snorkels, boogie boards, and more to make for a great trip. We were supposed to go right during the hurricane, but Ted was very flexible and easy to work with because of our delays. I wish I could stay in placelike this everywhere I go.
