This was our first VRBO booking and it was excellent! There were three of us. Me, my wife, and our son stayed for six nights. I don’t know why there are not too many reviews on this condo. Great place for the price! Host was very kind and punctually communicative. I wanted a condo that has two bathrooms. It really is just a few steps from Magic Sands Beach. We had a great view of the beach from the balcony. A/C was excellent once it turned on. All the rooms have ceiling fans which was a bonus, plus there are three additional floor fans provided which we didn’t have to use them. The only minor complaint I have is that the bed in the master bedroom was a little high for us short people to get onto. Maybe that’s why there was a step stool in the closet. Lol! Enjoyed the pool often. A drive to town for shopping was only three miles. We walked to town one day and it was very scenic! My wife loved all the trees and plants we passed by. I highly recommend this place to stay if you want a great place to stay for the price! Would definitely book here again in the future!

Hale Lihi Lani is a perfect place to stay on vacation. It's got all the amenities you'll need. Thank you to Mark and Kira for opening up your home to us! We'll be back...

Love this condo and stay here every time we are in Kona! Usually come with my husband but turned this trip into a ladies only trip and had a fantastic time! So much to do on the big island and just a 1-2 miles walking distance of several restaurants and markets! This place is always like a home away from home, very clean, comfortable and all the amenities you will need!

This property was especially comfortable and pleasant. We certainly appreciated the overall cleanliness and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen, bathrooms, closets, and lanai were very well stocked with all the supplies we needed for our stay. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone who is planning to visit this area. I think our most favorite thing was the beautiful view of Magic Sands Beach from the lanai.

Loved this property! The location was amazing with a big lanai and ocean views. The condo had boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas and a cooler. The grounds and pool area were great. I would definitely stay here again. My only complaint is that there was no sand at Magic Sands beach (which of course the owners have control over).

My husband and I loved this condo. It was beautifully designed and felt like home! It was so clean and well maintained. My husband and I were so excited that we could walk across the street and go snorkeling at Magic beach. I will definitely stay here again!!

Our host was super. Worked with us when our plane delayed a whole day! The condo was just like photos. Breakfast on terrace was a awesome way to start the day. Beach or pool toss a coin. Want history just down the road. Want nightlife just a few minutes away.

My two kids and I spent several days in this lovely location. We ate every breakfast on the deck, looking across the street to the ocean. Everything was clean, comfortable, and you can’t beat the location. Our first night, we walked across the street to the beach and frolicked in the waves. A sea turtle swam up to us, and even though we tried to keep a respectful distance, it kept swimming to us. We had 30min of swimming with our “sea puppy,” and that will be an experience my son and I never forget. The owners were very responsive, even though I was communicating with them and not the property manager. In my excitement, I missed seeing the note on the frig to contact the local manager, and didn’t read it until the last night. Face palm. They were very gracious in replying to my basic questions. We will be back!

This condo was perfect in so many ways! Very clean, fabulous location right across from beach and close to restaurants, shops, and attractions. Marvelous porch/lanai with stunning views! Condo had everything we needed and more- beach equipment, basic supplies, etc. We loved our stay here and will definitely be back!!

This condo is beyond perfect! Great amenities, clean, spacious with a huge balcony with THE view! It is also well stocked with everything you’ll need. It was our 6th trip to Hawaii and it was by far the best condo we rented. We had a wonderful 16 nights stay! Only down point is that we « lost » the beach in front of the complex :( but we knew about the phenomenon of Magic Sand Beach… Thank you for everything and can’t wait to be back in a year or two!!

It's always amazing staying here. Location, unit, and owners are all great! We feel like it's our home away from home.

The property was well kept with the exception of a few bugs in unit. Nothing major. Complex had an elevator which was great. Also had washer and dryer inside unit. The pool area was great with hot tub and barbecue grills. Not really much of a beach view. You can catch a glimpse of the ocean if you stick your head out the balcony. It was a five-ten minute drive to restaurants and shops. Overall, we loved it and great communication with the owner. I will definitely recommend it to future travelers.

Everything is just like the listing shows! We had a slight snaffu with housekeeping when we first arrived on Memorial Day- but Kira was very responsive (called us right back) and apologetic (offered to put us up in a hotel for the night), and even gave us a great discount on our stay while we worked together to find a solution. We definitely utilized the beach gear (umbrella, chairs, beach towels, bags, etc.) provided and appreciated the option for the A/C when the nights were a bit too warm! The only down side for me was that the mattresses are not the plush, pillow-top kind I'm used to. They were more the firm, box-spring type. Otherwise, everything was great!

We always have a wonderful time when visiting Kona and this condo is a fantastic place to stay! Close to everything and great views of the ocean across the street. Mark and Kira have made this condo very comfortable and it's a great 'home away from home!' We have rented from them several times and they are very responsive and great to work with when arranging the stay in their condo!

We enjoyed our stay. Would have rated it 5 stars but a few things were not disclosed prior to our booking. Did not know that upon arrival after a long flight that there would be no body soap to shower or bathe with. Shopping became a first priority instead of relaxing. Also, were instructed upon leaving to wash all bed and bath linens and stack on bed. Most people are in a rush on final day so this was a burden as we had an early departure. We also had to rewash every dish prior to using as dishes were not clean enough to my standards. (dry food on some). If the dish cleanliness (or lack of) is any indication I wonder if the prior occupants cleaned the laundry or just stacked them. I don't believe this should be left up to anyone but housekeeping. We definitely left the property cleaner than when we arrived. This said, the views from the balcony were not disappointing. Morning breakfast outside watching the beautiful water was enjoyable. Our fourth day there we witnessed many whales breaching right in front of us. For this reason I would say overall we had an enjoyable stay.



April 2017
We really enjoyed staying at this specific condo. It is tastefully updated with all need amenities i.e.: boogie boards, coolers, kitchen facilities. Great central location across from beach with great view. Nice unit for a family of 4. Kira was very available to answer questions and addressed any concerns promptly. Very affordable and clean. We would love to come back.Thank you for a great place to enjoy our holiday.

The condo was great, everything one needed was supplied. The washer/dryer was a godsend. We did have to purchase more toilet paper, laundry detergent, & puffs. We used the lanai for all meals; so enjoyed the ocean views & trade winds. Mahalo Kira for sharing your place with us.

We came here for our honeymoon! Loved this place; very well-equipped with kitchen, bath, and beach items. Kira let us check-in early which was SO nice, as we had been up for 48+ hours with our wedding and travel. Although the building is older, Kira had done a great job updating the condo. You can tell the owners love their place. Wonderful view from the lanai; met some nice folks while barbecuing downstairs. Would love to stay again!

Great condo! Close to everything. Owners are very friendly and answered all my emails. The only problem I had was it took me awhile to figure out that the parking is not in the covered parking spot but just across it and it was not that close to the unit. Also, I did not enjoy the beach across the condo. It was not a swimming beach, but a good surfing beach instead. So off to Kahulu'u beach just one mile south. Overall, I love this condo. Will come back here again.

The condo was large and very nice. Great view, and great location. Very well equipped with kitchenware, towels and beachgear. White Sands beach was beautiful. We travelled with two kids, aged 3 y and 9 m, and we all enjoyed the Kona coast. Went to a lot of beaches, parks and restaurants within 45 minutes of driving. We will absolutely recommend this place, and love to stay here again. Mahalo! Jan André, Vibeke, Jasper and Levi

We would recommend it to our friends. It is a great location, minutes from the airport, and it is located across from the beach. The place is clean, bright and comfortable with a nice view. We got a lot of information from the owner to help us plan our trip. They are nice people to deal with. We had a nice time and would highly recommended. Catalina and Steve, PA

This rental met all expectations. Across the road from white sands beach with a beautiful view of the beach from the lani. This unit is fairly large with room for two couples or a larger family. The unit is part of an older concrete block structure and while dated, in some ways, it was clean and well equipped. The grounds and pool area were nice. We would stay here again.



March 2016
It was very nice, very handy to the beach, unfortunately the sands had disappeared before we got there because of high surf. First time in 4 visits that I experienced that. It was still very beautiful and the view from the Lanai was fantastic!! The layout was a little different than two other units that I had stayed at in White Sands Village. Still, for 3-4 people I thought very nice. The accessories for beach activities ( fins and masks, bogie boards, mats and more) was the best I've seen at that complex. The two parking spots maybe not as handy as you would like but not that bad either. Really, there wouldn't be anything I could complain about. Access to pool and grill area very handy. I'd definitely stay there again!! Almost forgot, only a couple minutes down the road from my all time favorite snorkeling spot!!!

We stayed over Christmas 2015. We were travelling with our 7 year old twins and loved the location so close the the beach. We used the pool a tonne and the kids just loved it. The condo was very comfortable and had everything we needed. There is a box on the deck filled with beach toys, boogie boards and chairs. There were some days the beach was too rough for our kids, but was fun to watch others in the waves from the deck. The view of Magic Sands beach was lovely to wake up to. Any meals we had at the condo we are on the deck so we could enjoy the view. We would DEFINATELY recommend this condo to others.

I can't say enough about this place!! The view is FANTASTIC, the kitchen is amazing and the condo itself is large and spacious. The owners have impeccable taste! You will not be disappointed!!

We found this condo to be exactly as described. Clean, uncluttered, well-stocked, and a great location. The complex is definitely not new, but this unit has been updated. Generous updated kitchen, roomy bathrooms, cool floors. Grateful for the air conditioning! Four of us (parents and two young adult children) were very comfortable. We stocked up on meals-to-go at Costco the first day, so the big fridge and freezer were handy. The pool is crisp and well-maintained with plenty of loungers and umbrella tables. We took advantage of the propane BBQs. Had a small problem and the owners/housekeeper were quick to respond.

I love Magic Sands! Great beach close to town but a great place to stay as a group everyone will be happy! Play at the pool, the beach, or jump on the trolley. We've had family trips here before and can still keep watch on all the kiddos from your Lanai which is great. I have stayed in this complex before and was happy to stumble across this unit. It's nice to deal with the owners directly instead of an hustling agent...they were great in communicating and quick to respond to questions. I loved the decorations and was nicely stocked with extras you would need for your stay. The second unit in from the front of the building makes for a great view and sounds of waves crashing! You won't find a better value in this complex! Mahalo! Kira and Mark for sharing your piece of Heaven!

So refreshing to go into a condo rental that is clean and up to date! Suited my family of four 2 young teenagers and us parents just fine. It was perfect........so I highly recommend it.

Condo was exactly as advertised. Great Location! Our family rented three different units in the complex and Kira's was the nicest and best equipped. It has been updated and the open design of the Kitchen/front room makes it feel even bigger than it is. Cant beat the view either!



January 2011
My husband and I were lucky enough to be the first guests staying at Hale Lihi Lani. It was perfection. The view from the lanai was surreal. We were able to hear the waves crashing on Magic Sands Beach from every room in the condo! The best part, walking down two small flights of stairs and you're at the beach. It doesn't get much closer than that! The condo itself is adorable and very comfortable. It was absolutely spotless! We felt very much at home. Kona Inn and LuLu's are our favorite eateries and don't forget your Volcano Ice Cream! We can't wait to head back!
