The property was perfect. Was fully equipped with everything you needed. Stocked with beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards and snorkel gear for the 2 minute walk to the beach next door. Recommend sleeping with the door open and screen closed so you can fall asleep to the amazing waves. Kona itself is an 8 minute drive and you’re close to everything. The restaurant on the ground floor as part of the complex was great for a drink by the ocean or a meal, quality and prices were good for Hawaii. Highly recommend this property the hosts were attentive and quick at replying to our messages, could not fault anything in our stay. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you needed to cook if you decide to stay in.

Stayed three nights during the Kona low of March 2026. Great location, well appointed studio condo with great views and never ending surf sounds. To be fair, the weather was terrible during our stay so we did not get to enjoy the front lawn and pool or actually see a sunset. The bed is great, but the couch is a little hard. The kitchen has everything you need. For future vacationers you should know tha this area is extremely busy with beach goers that utilize the magic sands beach adjacent to the property. Lots of vehicular and pedestrian traffic past the property, although it was nice to have a coffee shop, laundry room and restaurant right in the building.This is obviously an older building in which this unit has been nicely upgraded. The only downside is that if you have stormy humid weather it is very hard to dry out the unit. The front sliding doors do not seal well, nor does the louvered window in the bathroom. The weather was relentless and when running the air conditioner the tile floors would get slick. Under normal weather conditions I don't think you would have any issue, in fact you probably would not need to use the air conditioning, just let nature do its thing.

The pictures accurately depict the condo—it was very clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay! The views were absolutely amazing. The location is perfect, close to plenty of restaurants, shopping centers, and a beautiful beach.Our host was incredible and always responded quickly. The only reason I gave 4 stars was due to a mix-up with my booking, but the host took exceptional care of us and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and able to spend as much time with my daughter as possible.Overall, I am extremely blessed and thankful for this experience!

We stayed in this great apartment for 3 nights. Very nice view of the ocean. And as it’s directly on the ocean you hear the waves on your room. The unit has a nice kitchen so you can cook a small meal if you like. There’s a beach right next door which is great for swimming. The pool is nice and warm as well. Unit comes with a parking spot so all very convenient. The airco is a mobile unit. We didn’t use it, cause we just kept the ceiling fans on and the doors open as suggested. One tip: first night I thought the bed had a big dip in it. Turned out one of the rods that keep the mattress in place had came loose. Easy fix. And slept great the next 2 nights.

This place is great. Honestly I think it’s the best beach rental we have ever had. It’s clean and has everything you need in the kitchen and for heading to the beach. The restaurant downstairs is really good. The parking is super easy. The beach by it has a lot of people but you don’t really need to go there because you are truly at the beach right from your living room looking over the water. We only used the beach to get in the water for snorkeling and then came back to the room to watch the waves. We explored the entire island from this place. It is a great central location. I highly recommend. Not a single thing I would change. View from living room at sunset

This condo is absolutely gorgeous. My husband and I have traveled to all the Islands and Kari's place was by far the best we have ever rented. It is right over the ocean just as the photos show. We had the slider open day and night to hear the wonderful sound of the surf. The condo itself is beautifully and tastfullyl decorated. Comfy king bed with quality bedding. The living area is so comfortbable too. The place is spotlessly clean. The kitchen has every thing you need. There is snorkel gear, chairs, umbrella snd coolers. Honestly, we've never been to a rental so well stocked and with quality towels, linens etc. Kari is the sweetest and most helpful person! We have showed friends photos and they can't believe how wonderful it is. We will definitely be goind back there next time we are on the Big Island.

I was immensely pleased with this rental! The property was exactly what was described in the listing. More importantly, however, the view was incredibly amazing. This rental is a perfect property for two people. It had everything you need if you wanted to cook or just relax. But the most important thing is the view! The water is right there and the sunsets were breathtaking. I can’t recommend this property enough!

We stayed here just before Thanksgiving and we had the most amazing time!! The views are stunning!! I have so many photos of the waves and fish swimming in the surf and sunsets. The location is perfect. Right next to a beautiful beach with easy swimming and snorkeling. the attached restaurant also had great food and drinks. We will 100% stay here for any of our future stays on the island!
