Can’t say enough good things about our stay. Property is super clean with fantastic dream views of the ocean. Heart of Kona close to Magic Sands and downtown strip. Checkin was smooth and easy. No need to look anywhere else for us. We will be back!

Location! Location! Location! Right on the ocean! Well stocked most of what you’ll need including beach towels, kitchen utensils, plates, beach chairs, pots, pans, swim fins, etc. Comfortable furniture. Gorgeous sunsets every night. We spent two very happy weeks here and hated to leave. It’s about a 15 minute drive to the grocery store which turned out to be very important. It was easier and way cheaper to prepare food rather than eat out.

Condo was easy to find with directions from host, spacious, updated and clean. Smaller complex which made parking easy and amenities available and nearly private. Easy check-in and out. The front door doesn’t have a deadbolt, but entrance to the elevator needs a code and stairs need a key. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Great property. Very well cared for and very well equipped. Communication with owner was very good - he was super responsive both before and during the stay. Check in was smooth and easy. Unit was spotless on arrival and is exactly as described - with a great lanai right on the water. Furniture and beds were all comfortable. We really enjoyed watching the surfers and sunsets. The building is small and well maintained. Everyone was quiet and friendly. The pool was never busy and great to sit out beside the ocean or for a quick swim. The location is perfect for exploring the island - short drive to many different activities and in to town for restaurants at night. Overall we highly recommend this unit and Kyle. Thankyou!

This was an am amazing anniversary vacation made better by the stay at this property. The view exceptional. The table and chairs out on the balcony made it a great place for coffee in the morning or watching the sun set over the ocean. We were able to either open the windows to enjoy the ocean breeze or utilize the air conditioning and still be able to hear the waves against the rocks. The kitchen was the most stocked kitchen of any property we have stayed at. By stocked I am referring to both pantry, cookware, and dishes. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very clean and well stocked. There were extras included for activities like Beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach towels, and coolers that came in so handy. The property as a whole was quite and peaceful,. We didn't run into a lot of people when we came and went. The designated parking spot made it exceptionally easy and worry free. I would highly recommend this property to any couple or family coming to visit this amazing island.

This place was perfect for our vacation. We could sit on the big lanai and watch the waves, surfers, and sunsets, or cool down inside in air conditioned bliss. There was lots of beach gear, including snorkel gear for everyone. Kyle was very responsive and made sure everything went well. Highly recommended!

Great property in a perfect location. Great owner. You can tell he's taken the time to really make sure the property is in optimal condition and there are lots of surprises including how well the kitchen is stocked for cooking. Sunsets are beautiful. Beds are comfy. Highly recommend.

My wife and I booked 2 nights as a mini-anniversary get away from our larger family vacation spent at a large timeshare complex.
I really wish the main part of our stay had been at this rental instead.
We loved watching the waves hit the rocks, watching surfers in the am. The filtered water pitcher in the fridge was a welcome surprise after a hot day.
The Air conditioners worked fabulously-which I appreciated.
The downside to the air conditioners was that when they were on, they vent to the lanai so it makes it pretty warm. We tried to deflect it with some chairs to make it manageable, which it mostly did.
Still, the views from the lanai were incredible, I loved the wooded lot next door and the bird and animal sounds it allowed.
The unit was very quiet, I really didn't hear any neighbors until I was on the lanai in the morning and someone else was as well.
We would love to stay here again! Thank you!

Very impressed with this place! Stayed for a week with spouse & 2 young adult sons. The space was perfect for us. We loved the small complex-it was quiet and peaceful and we hardly saw other guests/residents. The condo was nicely equipped and we were very comfortable. This location was also great. We saw nearly every part of the island and this location was central to almost everything. Highly recommend!!

We loved our stay at Banyan Tree. The views from the balcony/ lanai were spectacular. Swimming in the pool while watching the sunset- fantastic. From a practical perspective- kitchen was very well appointed, with everything we needed. The central location made it easy to get around the island- though a car is a must. Communication and check in was excellent.

This is one of the coolest places to stay in Hawaii. It is right on the water and has everything you need. If you are thinking about renting Kyle's place, go ahead and book it. Pool? Awesome. Beds? Awesome. Parking? Awesome. Lanai??? Whatever words are better than Awesome. This place rocks!!!

We traveled with our in laws and we spent time going back and forth between two different units in the building (this one and another). This condo was beautiful, well appointed, and in a fantastic location. Kyle was responsive and a great host. The AC was a great addition to our stay!

3rd floor 2 bdrm/2 ba end unit condo with lanai overlooking pool, but most importantly a terrific ocean view. Shoreline is lava rock like many locations in Kona. Waves crashing and surfers surfing.
A/C worked well, but we mostly just had the windows open and loved the steady ocean breeze. Handy to have beach towels provided !
Close to Kona and an easy drive from the airport.

Unit was well stocked, it even has containers for leftovers. Location was great and the building is well maintained. We rented a car for excursions, parking spot was convenient. Kyle is great to communicate with and we had no problems what so ever. The view from the lanai couldn't be better! We enjoyed watching the surfers each day and saw lots of whales from the lanai.

We loved the views and location of the condo. The lanai was huge and easily accommodated our family of 5. We spent most of our time outside, enjoying the breeze off the water and watching for whales. It was very cool to see the surfers on the water each day as well.
The kitchen was well appointed and the air conditioning helped us sleep well at night.
The beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, and other water gear made our trips to the beach much more enjoyable.
Kyle was very responsive when we contacted him about a clogged toilet. Somehow he managed to get a plumber to the condo on a Friday afternoon before a three day weekend. Very impressed!
I would highly recommend this property. When we return to the Big Island, this condo will be our first choice.

January 2024
The unit had a very well-equipped kitchen, a fantastic view of the ocean (and sunsets), and with the decor, books, beach equipment, etc., gave a nice sense of hominess. It was close to beaches and activities, and in a nice area. The little convenience store across the street was helpful, and I definitely enjoyed having the pool and hot tub. My only regret was the rooster that lives in the overgrowth next door and started making noise at 2 AM the first night were there. With the window fully shut and the AC on, subsequent nights were much better.
Danny
December 2023
The view from the lanai was perfect. Watching the surfers doing their thing all day long was very enjoyable. The kitchen was well equipped and bed and showers were just fine.
Location of the condo is in the center of activity on this side of the island.
It would be nice to have a copy of the free "101 Things To Do" and "This Week- Big Island" magazines in the condo when we first arrived. We didn't discover those until 2/3 of our stay was past.

We loved the condo and location. Enjoyed watching the surfers every day and boating traffic. The waves at night were so peaceful and relaxing to listen to. The condo was well equipped and we were able to take advantage of the area attractions since it was a great location. Any issues have been communicated to Kyle who was very responsive to our texts and requests. REALLY appreciated having AC available in all rooms. We used the AC in bedrooms at night to make sleeping comfortable but never really needed AC in the main rooms as plenty of windows allowed great air flow.

There are many great features with this rental! Foremost is the view! Sitting on the lanai is almost like sitting on the beach! Even with the windows closed, you could hear the surf in the master bedroom. Plenty of space and privacy for 2 couples. Superb parking. Great communication with host and easy Check in/check out procedures. We are incredibly picky about cleanliness so for us, we felt like it could use a really deep cleaning but everything is organized and overall tidy and in place. The place could also use a few updates on small appliances. Overall, a really good place to stay with really good hosts.
July 2023
The property was great but the view was the best part of our trip!

This condo is fantastic! The place has everything including snorkel gear! The pool and jacuzzi were great and to sit in the jacuzzi and look at the ocean is so great! The Lanai was great and being on the end and the angle to it give you privacy and such a beautiful view of the ocean and shoreline! You can walk to a beach, Da Poke Skack is a block over. This is a great area to stay on the Big Island. Go to Two Step to snorkel!

Any little issues with the rental are completely non existent when you step out onto the balcony. The patio made the whole stay incredible. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. I will say if you are actually trying to cook in the place the kitchen isnt the most user friendly. The disposal is not operational and the limited space on countertops is missing some with the microwave on the counter. There are a ton of restaurants in the area and I assume most people are dining out but for allergy reasons we cook most meals at home, so we struggled a bit in that department, but again then ate on the deck and forgot that was even an issue. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again!

We just spent a week in this condo. We were very comfortable. We spent most of our time on the lanai. The view is amazing. We enjoyed watching the surfers every morning. We also enjoyed the pool and used the barbecues. I’d recommend staying here. Great location.

The condo was such a great fit for us. Loved being able to eat breakfast on the lanai every morning. Was too far to walk to town for my 11 year old but did walk to the Poke Shack. Don’t miss it.
All the beach things you could want, boogie board, towels, cooler and snorkel gear.
Clean, comfy beds (didn’t use the pullout).
Would stay here again. Easy with good communication.

I can’t say enough about this condo! The lanai is all it’s advertised to be, and the perfect spot to watch the sunset, or whale watching! I was so excited to see that in addition to the comfortable furnishings, it was stocked with beach towels, snorkeling gear and coolers! It rained the last few days of my trip, but no matter! I just grabbed a book from the reading nook and made myself comfortable. Can recommend wholeheartedly, and will definitely be staying again!

This was our 4th time to Kona and 3rd time we were able to secure this (our favorite!) condo. So happy to have gotten this one again - it’s on the end so has extra windows which on the side have beautiful tropical jungle feel and total privacy! Then of course the ocean view out front is just unbelievable and the extra large deck!! We don’t even go out to eat other than we have to get some Poke now and again but otherwise we cook in the condo and eat on our deck.. better view than any restaurant and we save a ton that way too. The condo has everything you need - it’s easy to feel like home there 😊

Kyle's condo is so comfortable and aesthetically pleasing that's it's almost unreal! Furnishings, artwork, design all lent to a feeling of richness, joy and relaxation. Everything we needed was there. Location is such that it's easy to get to the highway to go run errands. The sound of the ocean was incredible and we used the pool every day. Kyle went out of his way to accommodate our needs, responding quickly to our questions and requests. Thank you!

The balcony alone is worth staying here. Like others mentioned, you can watch surfers both morning and evening, with some throughout the day. Perfect sunset view. Extras including condiments in the kitchen, snorkel, fins, masks, shoes, beach towels, someone even left aloe in the fridge, which unfortunately I ended up needing, but was amazing to already have access to it. Used the cooler several days to take drinks with us while driving around to beaches, etc. A/C's worked great. 15 mins from any restaurant, including poke shack in walking distance. Highly recommend this condo

This is one of, if not the best, rentals
We’ve ever stayed at. The location was phenomenal. Close to the main hub of Kona, but far enough away to avoid the crowd. The views were spectacular, with an unobstructed view of the coastline and a great location to see the surfers at one of the best surfing spots in Kona. It was delightful, to wake up in the morning and have your coffee and watch the surfing. The evening views were amazing. The lanai was very spacious with a ceiling fan, and we ate outside most of the time. There were two spacious lounge chairs as well. The pool area was very clean, and the Jacuzzi was very nice to use.
We never had a problem waiting to use it. Most of the time, we had the pool area to ourselves. It was never crowded, and the condo area was very quiet. There is a small convenience store across the street, and up the street as well. The condo is very close to magic sand beach, which is one of the best beaches in Kona. It is also close to several great snorkeling spots.
There was AC in all the rooms and they worked flawlessly. The unit was very clean, and updated. It was very spacious for the four of us, my wife and two children. The owner was very responsive, and the directions were easy to follow on getting into the unit and leaving the unit.
We loved every minute our stay.

Kyle's condo is beyond perfect! The views, location and facility is great but even better are the amenities of the unit itself. Everything is super comfortable, from the beds to the living room & patio furniture down to the towels! The unit has more beach accessories than you'll ever need and the kitchen is fully stocked to prepare a gourmet meal.
Loved our stay and highly recommend!

Easy check-in, great location. The property was quiet. Lanai was beautiful- listening to the waves was so relaxing. We were on the go for most of our stay so we didn’t take full advantage of the kitchen. Very clean. Having 2 bathrooms was wonderful for our family of four.

This property has it all and the owner is super helpful. Be sure to look in the 2nd bedroom closet and hall closet for *ALL* the beach items you could want -- beach towels, coolers, beach chairs, beach mats, snorkel gear, boogie boards, pool noodles -- you name it.

Our stay was wonderful. The condo is in a prime viewing location and has everything you can think of to use. The AC worked well.

The unit and location were perfect in every way. It is located just outside of the hustle of Kona but close enough to get there for the restaurants and shops. The unit itself was well stocked with all the kitchen utensils you will ever need. It also had a large amount of beach going necessities (chairs, mats, coolers, masks, fins, and snorkels) which was an added bonus. The lanai was the top feature of the unit. We spent every morning and most evenings enjoying the awesome view of the surfers, waves, and sunsets. The owner of the unit gave easy, complete, and detailed instructions for check-in and check-out and was always available if needed. I will absolutely return here in the future!!!

Would absolutely stay here again. The unit was perfect for our family of 4 (our kids are age 8 and 11). The beach gear (chairs, cooler, umbrella, boogie boards, snorkeling gear) was so handy. This is a well-cared for property and it shows. Thank you, Kyle!

This condo was able to comforatably accomodate a family of five. We really enjoyed hanging out on the large lanai and taking in the beauty of the ocean during our stay. There's also a pool and hot tub on the property and both were clean and well maintained. There's a small grocery store conveniently located right across the street in case you need to grab something quick. Otherwise there are larger stores in the area with a 10 minute drive. Overall we really enjoyed our stay in the condo and would definitely book it again!
David V.

The condo could've been stocked a bit better, like we experienced with another condo up Ali'i Drive. An unresolved Cable TV issue prevented any Cable viewing. Overall, condo and lanai were
spacious, decorated very classy, and location was excellent. Our host was avaliable and very generous/flexible with checkin/out timing! Many Mahalos 😁

Kyle’s apartment unit is a spacious, sun-drenched (if you want) 2-bedroom in a small 20-unit building right at the water’s edge on the Kona coast, with a large lanai that brings the Pacific right into your space. There is a an almost private pool area for swimming and sunning. The surfer show is there for breakfast and all through the day. If you want the beauty of a Big Island getaway without the crowds and crush of a hotel, it’s a great choice perfectly located, with all the arrangements simple and easy. From start to finish, Kyle was helpful and responsive. When we ran into a problem with a broken refrigerator our first night, Kyle got right on it, with a repair visit the next day, a Saturday. The repair didn’t work, so we had no refrigerator for our brief 5-night stay, a disappointment. But as promised, Kyle reimbursed us without questions for our grocery losses and provided reasonable financial consideration for the inconvenience. We had a happy time.

March 2022
Great condo for our family of five! We loved eating breakfast on the lanai and watching the surfers. We spent our days out exploring and would come back for dinner and sunset on the lanai. The pool was a nice bonus too! Kids were able to practice with their snorkeling gear and gain confidence before hitting the ocean. Kyle was super easy to get ahold of and very helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here and hope to come back soon!

This was our 4th trip to Kona. We have always rented condos for extra room and access to a kitchen for cooking meals in. We really enjoyed Kyle's condo. The location for us was perfect. While some might want to be closer to the downtown area, the location is great. The traffic does get backed up but Kyle's condo is past all that. There is a Poke' shack just steps away from the condo. They sold out every day by 2:00 pm and my son and husband were obsessed with the place. Coffee, restaurants, stores, are all within minutes by car. There are beaches close by but they do get a bit crowded. The actual property has a nice pool/hot tub area as well as a few nice grills. I also appreciated the security feature of having a code for the elevator. Parking was perfect. The best part for me though was the incredible lanai. The sunsets were beautiful every single day! The beds were comfortable enough and overall the condo is very well stocked for a nice stay in Kona.

Our family of 4 (2 teens and 2 adults) had a magnificent time in Kona! This property has a spectacular ocean view from the lanai, and if we never left the condo, the view itself was worth it!
The layout was a perfect fit for our crew, amenities were plentiful, and we would def stay again should we make it back to this island. We were close enough to town to go in and out every day, and make it around the island as we wanted.
The owner was great to work with and the location was perfect! Thanks so much!

I was excited to stay at this condo from the moment I rented it last spring, and it surpassed all of my expectations. Everything was great. The beds were very comfortable which is always a must for me. My husband and I slept in the twin beds with the king sized mattress pad on it and we were so comfortable! The condo had everything we needed: dishwasher pods, laundry detergent, a very well appointed kitchen, very comfortable living room furniture, beach towels, beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, even water shoes! But by far the very best thing about the condo was the view. We could see up and down the coast and there was a gorgeous palm tree right in front of the lanai to add to the perfection of the view. We spent every minute that we weren't sleeping or out on adventures sitting on the lanai staring at the ocean. I know we could have saved a little money by staying somewhere less expensive, but 5 days with this view was worth a lot! 100% we'd stay here again in a heartbeat!
Robert A.

Everything was great. Booking the property was easy and communication from the property owner was excellent.

The view was absolutely amazing!!!! Great little condo plenty of room for the 4 adults in our party. Beds were comfortable and the bonus was they had snorkel gear!!! Enough for everyone which i don’t recall reading in the description. Two downsides were we, we thought we were closer to town but the trip requires an Uber and the bathroom (only speaking for the one I used) was not very clean. The rug was filthy and the shower hadn’t been cleaned there were chunks of something in the corners. I took pictures as I read in past reviews they had changed cleaning company’s (not sure how recent). Instructions say start a load of laundry but I was unable to find detergent in order to do so.

We loved this condo, the large lanai made spending time outside perfect with watching the surfers and the famous Hawaiian sunsets. We loved how centrally located it was, close to dining, shopping and Magic Sands Beach, or easy to drive north to larger beaches or south for the best snorkeling we have ever seen. It was very spacious and clean!

Good location a little south of main Kona tourist area. Smaller complex allowed easy parking and access. Owner was friendly and super responsive to my questions. We highly recommend this property for your Big Island vacation!

The property is located on a fairly busy section of Alii Drive but is on the water side and mostly quiet .
The lanai is amazing - so nice to sit out and watch the surfers , listen to the waves, and watch sunsets on the best spot in town .
The property owner is extremely responsive and personable.
The amenities are what every renter wants - dedicated indoor parking spot , new washer and dryer , new appliances , and air conditioning.
Will be back !
June 2021
The condo was a corner third floor with a HUGE lanai. Sitting there in the morning drinking coffee and watching the surf was positively nirvana. The condo is very large, very well appointed, and extremely comfortable. Everything we needed or wanted was there. Closing the door as we left was painful because we all wanted to stay. Five star rating if there ever was one.

The lanai was spectacular! The condo is big, spaced out and tons of beach extras. Nicley decorated too!

Beautifully decorated and very clean with all the things we needed to enjoy our stay. The best view of the sunset. Literally steps away from the ocean. Snorkeling equipment and boogie boards hidden in the back room!! All the kitchen essentials you could need!!! Kyle, the host, was super accommodating and the locals spoke very highly of him. Will definitely go back!!

We had another wonderful stay at Kyle's place again this year. We spent a lot of time on the lanai watching surfers, dolphins, and waves. It is a big space with room for a table for four and 2 lounge chairs. We were happy to see this year's upgrades that included 2 new recliners in the living room. They are very comfortable for watching TV or just listening to the waves. This condo's location is perfect for going to beaches, shopping, and eating out. The best Poke shop in Kailua/Kona is only a few minutes walk away. We visited Keauhou shopping center and the Coconut Grove Marketplace which has great restaurants including Lava Java which we recently saw featured on Food channel's Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. The condo's swimming pool and BBQ areas are always clean and never crowded. Kyle is a very helpful and responsive owner. We are definitely looking forward to staying here again on our future visits to Kona.
