Beautifully remodled property. The second bedroom is a little warm but the rest of the house is well air conditioned. Drank my coffee and watched the sunrise over the ocean every morning from the deck. Within walking distance of downtown tourist shopping area. We listened to a band play one night. Love that they provide snorkeling gear, boogie boards, and beach towels from what others have left behind. Perfect location for people on a budget. And don't have to pay for parking!!

We used to own a property in Kona, so we know the island well. We picked this property because of the views and proximity to town. It did not disappoint! We were able to walk everywhere, and having coffee on lanai looking at the ocean was great. Parking is super convenient, and the unit was spotless and well-stocked. Walua Social is pretty much across the street, and it's a great restaurant for a nice meal. We would absolutely stay here again! Thanks!

The positive energy was felt the minute we opened the door, this unit was so clean, so organized and it has given my family and I the most rewarding memories anyone could have. We highly recomend booking with Knutson vacation rentals at Kona mansions as your top pick when visiting the sunny side of the big island Kailua, Kona!!! Thank you so much for having us, see you next year!!! Aloha!

This place was great. It's a quiet community (other than the coqui frogs). From the balcony you had a great view of the ocean and you could watch the cruise ships come in while you had breakfast. Most of the house is air conditioned except for the room with 2 twin beds. They provided some boogie boards, snorkels and other beach toys. I would definitely stay again, especially if they get a/c in the 2nd bedroom.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kona Mansions! The space had everything we needed, including lots of convenient extras like beach toys, beach chairs, even a cooler bag for lunches on the go. Very convenient to have a key code and not worry about keeping keys on us as we visited all around the island! Parking was so convenient and easy walking to everything around town. Laundry in the unit was a huge perk for us as well! The property manager was very communicative and checked in on the phone to make sure everything was going well.

This was a great location for our family of four. The property was walking distance to many attractions, the property managment company was very responsive and was there for anything we needed. The property itself was great, we loved that we had access to a washer and dryer there in the property.

43 steps to get your suitcases from the parking area to the bedroom. Not fun if you are a senior!! Balcony is off the bedroom so not convenient to eat there to watch the ocean.Within walking distance to most things. No dishwasher.

We were very happy with this unit. It was well-stocked with what we needed. We did not cook much, so I cannot comment much on that, but plenty of towels, tp, washer/dryer. The unit was VERY clean. Our property contact was very attentive and even answered a couple of texts I sent outside of regular hours.

The place was great. They had a nice welcome basket and stayed in touch for the entire stay to make sure everything was going well. It is a short walk to down town Kona. We could see the ocean from the living room which was really cool.

The property was well kept. Two bedrooms were perfect for our family. At first no a/c in second bedroom worried me, but we all adjusted to the Hawaii temps and didn't even use the a/c much after day 3. Parking spot was close to the unit. Unit was clean and we were greeted in person at check in. The pool was a huge hit since the kids were timid of the ocean waves. We would definitely stay here again. Walking distance to restaurants and beach. We explored a bit more outside of Kona on this trip and found the condo a perfect hub to come back to everyday. Linens and pillows could be updated, and washer has a loud spin cycle. However, it was critical to have a washer and dryer since we packed light. The kitchen was fully stocked with any sort of cooking utensil you may need and the welcome gifts were a nice touch. There was also beach towels, some flotas, pool noodles, and beach chairs and umbrellas. The sunscreen they had was not reef friendly, so I'd suggest against using that at the beach and invest in a bottle of reef friendly sunscreen. The ocean life is incredible and we brought our own snorkels on this trip. The kids loved the chocolate covered macadamia nuts. This would be a great place to book if you're looking for a mix of local activities and day trips out of Kona.

Everything was exactly as stated.
The only problem we had was that there wasn’t central air and the upstairs a/c unit wasn’t working when we arrived so our first night was rather miserable sleeping with only open windows and fans. It was fixed the next day but the unit really only cools the main bedroom, not the entire upstairs floor.
Well supplied, great location. Walking distance to a lot of places. Would recommend!

This property is excellent! The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was nicely stocked. They could upgrade a few of the pots and pans and maybe add an electric tea kettle but we had everything we needed and they left a nice goodie bag.
The walk to downtown Kona is very easy and convenient. Gorgeous view from the master bedroom deck as well.
Property management was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Thank you Knutson and Associates!

Not bad, not great, but it did the trick for our stay! We had ample room, all utensils and necessities in the kitchen and the washer/dryer was a plus.
The starter package of 4 rolls of toilet paper and 1 roll of paper towel for 11 days is a little cheap in my opinion. Just supply what a guests needs, why nickle and dime?
This stay was nice. It had what we needed, it was nothing extravagant or boujie, but for the price I felt that was fair. Bring your binocs to watch the whales from the master patio!

Clean, quiet conveniently located in Kona to food, shoreline, shopping. Second bedroom really could use A.X unit as it was hot for sleeping. Pillows were flat, bought some at local store so we could sleep better. Towels were plentiful, beach towels also. Kitchen stocked with pans, utensils and othrrvthings well enough to do cooking. Would stay again..especially if second bedroom had A.C.

Beautiful view, Kitchen, baths n master bedroom very nice;; Because my husband and ai are in our golden years the exterior flight of stairs and interior flight of stairs were a challenge for us. B The carpet needs to be replaced as it is outdated n has an odor, the second bedroom needs new fan with light as it looks like it was installed around the 70’s! Some of the wooden louvers fell out as we opened them up for air since it was hot and stuffy! We did get fans n air conditioners going which made rooms comfortable. We could not find an iron as we got ready for the wedding but we improvised n put my dress in dryer to get wrinkles out; it did the job! Very quiet n peaceful! Hope this helps.

The location of the property was good since we wanted to explore all of Maui , so we were kind of central to everything. Also you are right on the ocean with beautiful views and easy access to the pool and beach areas. I would stay here again.

Pros: Very clean unit, you could eat off the floor, well stocked kitchen, washer dryer like new, AC unit in bedroom was used every night so I could sleep in the 85 degree humid weather, bed was VERY comfortable, sheets were high quality. Outdoor landscaping and pool area very nice, nice view from upper lanai, property management company is very responsive. good location for walking into town for happy hour or coffee
Cons: A few lightbulbs burnt out in bedrooms, no AC in second bedroom, young families with kids live in neighboring units can be a little noisy but friendly. There is a lot of traffic noise by the pool area

Very nice and clean. Nice walking distance to many restaurants. Nice having the washer and dryer. Not that this could be fixed but I would have liked if the lanai was off the living room and not off the master. A bit hard to bring food, coffee or drinks up stairs just to sit on the lanai. The room with the twin beds does not have an AC and the windows are only screens with shutters on the outside. Every night I had to listen to the neighbors child whine and you can hear anyone chatting near by if their doors are open. Other than that it is a nice place.
