Property was great and the view was awesome. Nice to have the AC in the evening. Plenty of beach stuff (which we added too), well stocked and comfortable. It's the furthest from the parking and the cable upstairs wouldn't work on the upstairs tv. Definitely worth the stay.

Breathtaking views of the ocean from the lanai, which has chairs to lounge and a outdoor dining table. My family loved watching the sunset over the ocean, and enjoyed waking up to the beautiful view of palm trees with a colorful sky during sunrise. The apartment was clean upon arrival. The host was very thoughtful in furnishing the condo and included beach towels, laundry detergent, various tour books, binoculars etc. The condo was spacious. It really felt like a home away from home.
The condo complex itself is beautiful and grounds well maintained.
We are recommending this specific condo to all our friends.

Super upscale furnishings (like solid Koa wood) and recent remodel (new paint, etc). You're just steps from the surf breaking on the rocks. Super comfortable. Great location. The upstairs A/C make buzzing sound, needs repair. The walls are paper-thin, neighbors complained of TV noise, which to us was normal level (we turned it WAY down - our hearing is very good).

Can't beat the view from the lanai. Loved relaxing out there and looking out over the water. Got better views of whales sitting on the lanai than on an actual whale watching boat tour.
Location is close enough to Kona to be convenient to town and the airport, yet just far enough out to be a quiet and calm escape.
The place was well maintained, spacious, and had just about everything we needed.

Generous size condo and nice, quiet private location. Could benefit from a closer bar b cue location. Plenty of beach equipment provided. Property was very clean and well maintained. Property manager was very prompt with any questions and addressing concerns. I would recommend this property to a friend or relative.

The views are fantastic and unit super clean and well fairly appointed. Blake ( host) responsive to TV and upper air conditioner issues..... although we did not want maintenance to work on the unit while we were there, the air conditioner in upper bedroom is quite loud. Lots of stairs in and getting to unit, thus not suggested for those that have walking difficulties. Stairs to upper bedroom quite steep and narrow with only partial handrail. Not a problem for us, though.

Great rental. Spacious. Beautiful view. Beds are comfortable. There is A/C which is not in all units at the condo complex. Kitchen is well equipped. Indoor and outdoor dining seating. Beach chairs, coolers, snorkel gear, beach towels included. Would recommend to friends! Only downsides were that the showers downstairs did not have adequate water flow and it was a bit of a drive from downtown Kona (however most attractions on the Big Island require driving.

You can't beat this lanai or the view of the ocean and the sunsets! It's very convenient to a shopping center and a short drive to Kona. There are so many things to do in the area.

Fantastic stay at KKSRC5303 as usual. I think this was our fifth stay in this unit. It was comfy. Had everything we needed. Lots of beach gear. And the sweetest little beach to go with it! The view of the ocean remains one of the most amazing aspects of this rental unit; it is like being on an ocean liner! We have seen whales, boats, tropical fish, and the Green Flash from our lanai. Beds are fine. Kitchen is good. We don't like AC so we use the open windows and the fans but a good AC system is available now if you prefer. There is a heavenly breeze coming from the ocean most of the time; we actually had to close off the sliders a couple of nights because it became too cool for our skimpy PJs. This condo always feels like we are coming home. Thanks to Blake and the Knutson team for their ongoing responsiveness... Mahalo!

We really enjoyed our stay. The condominium was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and furnished, and included plenty of clean and nearly new recreational equipment for the pool and ocean. They even included binoculars and the latest versions of two popular guidebooks for the Big Island. We also appreciated being within walking distance of stores and restaurants, and being just a short drive from Kona itself. And we had to drive no more than half an hour to visit the best snorkeling sites on the island.This was the best stay of our five trips to the Big Island. We will definitely return here.

Large lovely apartment that suited our family very well. However there was no air condition which I might have missed when making the reservation. They had a lot of fans and other cooling equipment but they weren’t really helping that much. Also one of the fans couldn’t be turned off so we had to call for a handyman. After some issues they fixed it and everything worked perfectly.
Private parking spot also made the stay easy and comfortable.
Loved the view from the big balcony where the sunsets were amazing. (Apartment is on third floor).
Closet full of swimming gear even if some broken boards were probably just put there by other guests not bothering to throw them.
But again, a great place!

We originally had booked prior to COVID and had to cancel. Knutson and Associates were most helpful and assistive in carrying over our vacation plans until this year. The property is very comfortable and very clean. All needed amenities to serve as a hub to explore the Big Island or just stay and do nothing. Only downside was lack of A/C but there were plenty of fans to move air at night to stay cool.

We had a wonderful time with a beautiful ocean view and plenty of room in the condo. Enjoyed the pool and tennis amenities along with close proximity to beaches, restaurants and sightseeing. The golf course was nice too.

This condo was the most gorgeous VRBO I’ve ever booked. It was luxuriously appointed and the top floor lanai was 25ft from the surf looking west for sunset. Lying in our King bed in the loft, I could literally see the ocean through the glass railing. There were lots of extras for snorkeling, tennis, a cooler, umbrellas and many other niceties that just make the stay better for those traveling light. The complex was lovely with tennis, pool, grass vball court and easy parking. Close to the grocery and access to everywhere! I want to come back some day and stay longer!

Rental was clean, well maintained and right on the ocean. The overall property was beautiful. This was our first stay in Kona. Very close to shopping and great restaurants. We utilized the pool and tennis courts. Rental was very spacious and quiet. They sent us new towels and pillows while we were there. We liked it so much, we just booked again for later this year!
