The condo is truly in the perfect spot, close to town/restaurants/shops and even <15min from the airport but also tucked far enough back that there's no noise but the ocean waves (and wind). It's on the main road so easy to find and easy to head north or south depending on destination. There's not too much in close/immediate walking distance but I chose that to stay away from the night noise. The pool was small but nice and warm and the complex felt very safe and the residents came out to cheer the sunset each night :)

We loved our stay on the Big Island and felt this was the perfect place and location for our visit. Our children enjoyed the pool, the view was perfect, the condo was stocked with everything we needed, and communication was great. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Beautiful condo with all the comforts of home. Owner thought of everything. Jason was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions. Small foot note...i visited in late July. The big island is extremely humid in July. The aur conditioning unit in the living room is not sufficient to cool off the living room and master bedroom. Other than that, perfect stay. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend this unit.

The location is close to anything and everything one would want to do in Kailua-Kona. About a mile into town, could even walk and there is a pay as you go bike rental just across the street, if you'd rather bicycle into town. Beach is nearby, beautiful view of the ocean from the lenai, quiet neighbors/neighborhood, comfortable bed, nice and clean, lovely pool, and had everything we needed, but couldn't pack and bring to the island. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.

The condo was extremely clean, and the view out the double slide outs were spectacular. Everything was in excellent condition, we enjoyed chess and of course the supplied beach gear, the coolers came in handy to pack lunches while on trips around the island. Have to say the MB shower was the best!! Access to the lava rock shore and swimming pool was used and a favorite for us and our two boys!
Communication with the owners were quick and they answered all of our questions.
Would highly recommend booking this unit for your next get away

Quaint, quiet, and the lanai facing the ocean. Truly a gem above other rental properties. The condo itself is clean and efficient away from the tourist area. Keep in mind no air conditioning but, with the screen doors open the ocean breeze keeps the temperature at a satisfying level of comfort.The kitchen is stocked with amenities so all you need to do is grocery shop for your stay. A plus for families. Parking and the overall property itself is safe, providing a peace of mind at night. This location comes highly recommended. I look forward to staying here again.

We had an incredible time with our 2 children. Everything is perfectly functional and well equipped. We had no trouble finding and accessing the property. Monika made sure we had all the information we needed. The property is perfectly equipped and everything is very functional, with the little details that make all the difference. There are all the accessories you need for beach and snorkelling activities. Above all, the view is incredible, and the memories of breakfast on the balcony will stay with us forever.

The house doesn’t have A/c which we were aware of. However, if you open all the windows and back door the breeze was perfect along with the sound of the water hitting the rocks. This property isn’t on a beach but it has great views, a pool, and a couple beaches within 5 minutes on both sides. Magic sand beach is amazing for the family. Beautiful snorkeling, white sand beach, beach volleyball, a little bit of everything for everyone. The home has beach gear that you can use. We were not aware of this and didn’t realize till the last day but the gear is in the bedroom closet. The home is right by downtown Kona which was nice. Lots of people out running and walking. Really feels like your at home.

Staying at Kona Coast Apt 227 ended up being a very pleasant experience. The apt has everything an out of town visitor seeking to enjoy Hawaii would expect to have (towels, umbrellas, utensils, beach toys, floats, basic household paper towels, aluminum foil, saran wraps, laundry, dishwasher and even a smart cooker). The communication before arrival, during the say and prior to departure was very good ; the representatives were very responsive - the view of the sunsets from the lanai was great. Compared to another firm competing with VRBO, this was a very pleasant experience overall. Definitely recommend it.

Condo was as we expected it to be, host was easy to communicate with. Beautiful location with amazing view of the ocean on the lanai. Great that there were beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards for the beach. Lots of spices and condiments for cooking. We knew there would not be air conditioning and the breeze off the ocean was awesome, but it did get quite hot, especially in the back bedroom.

Frist off. NO AC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The trade winds were lacking on the day we got there and it was MISERABLE!! It is hard to sleep with upper 80s temps, regardless of all fans running and windows open. Over all the place was very clean, except for the fact that the dishes in the cabinet were dirty. They still had food on them and the coffee cups had rings and oily residue in them. My guess is that the previous tenant just placed them in the cabinet and the cleaning people did not notice. The worst part, since you cannot close the windows and doors without AC, is that there was a CONSTANT hammer drill and grinder running in a unit close to this one. It was mind numbing and led to us staying away from the unit as much as possible. We never accessed the ocean or went to the pool. This was a very overpriced place to store our luggage and sleep in sauna like conditions. Add AC, get a different cleaning crew, and finish remodeling, then this becomes an interesting place to stay.

Perhaps we just didn't read closely enough but we did not realize there was no A/C in the condo. We had to have multiple fans running every day/night in order to keep cool and it was very hard to sleep due to the amount of noise. However, despite the heat, the view was spectacular (the main draw for us) and the condo was spacious. We wished there were a few additional ammenities for cooking - not even salt and pepper were available.

We really enjoyed this property. It was as advertised. I slept in the queen bed and it was perfect and very much like my bed at home. My daughter said she felt that the twin bed needs to be replaced. I also thoroughly enjoyed the shower in the master bathroom. A great spray with lots of pressure. We saw lots of fish and one day a monk seal was on the rocks. We also spent time at the pool which we all enjoyed. Sunsets were fantastic everyday. Everything worked as expected. I would stay here again! Mahalo

Make sure to check out the farmers market in Kona. Mangoes are in season now!

Couldn’t be happier with location and condo. Very nice and best stocked Vrbo I’ve stayed at. Had all the little things that you would want and a little more. Great for a more laid back stay, if you are looking for party atmosphere, this is not it. The pool area is more calm, so don’t plan on a boom box, cases of beer or kids going crazy with inflatables jumping etc. With the location you are close to all sorts of parks, beaches etc. if you are a good snorkler you can dip right off the lava rock. Go out on the lava rock at night and look in the pools, all sorts of little creatures. Can’t wait to go back and we will look at staying here again, fair price and great
accommodations.

This condo was perfect for me and my girlfriend, and with the pull out couch would probably suit up to 4 just fine. There is a private lanai (porch) with a partial ocean view as well. The kitchen had all the dishes and cookware we needed to have a few dinners in to save on the absurd Kona restaurant costs.
The real benefit of this place is its location. It’s a mile south of the shopping area and all of the restaurants as well as the pier. It’s about 2 miles north of magic sands (a must visit beach). If you are inclined to get around by bicycle, it’s across the street from the HiBike rental station where you can rent a bike for a few bucks.
We would both definitely come back. The hosts were great and check-in/check-out was a breeze.

From breakfast on your own balcony you could watch dolphins in the wild. The balcony was very nice and large and you had a direct view of the ocean and could enjoy the sunset in the evening. The kitchen has all the amenities you need for cooking. For a great day at the beach, everything you need is on site, whether it's a sun lounger or parasol. Thank you very much, we would love to come back.

True to pictures. When they talk about hearing the roar of the ocean they are not kidding! Even the second bedroom has a view of the ocean. The place was so clean. Want to hiring the cleaning crew for my house. The view was amazing! I wanted to just sit and enjoy! It was so quiet (strict quiet rules) compared to the big resort we came from. It was very relaxing. Had beach toys in the closet to use. Chairs, one umbrella, towels, ice chest. That was very nice. Could have used two umbrellas or one bigger one. There was ice in the freezer ready to use. Only complaint my friend had was there was no curtains on the big window looking out to the ocean so the sun came up and let a lot of light in. For me, I just enjoyed the view! Never used the TV or kitchen but kitchen looked well stocked with appliances. A few food items available. Very short drive into town. Could walk if have the time and energy.
Highly recommend and will stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Great location. Close to shops and restaurants (1 mile). Property had everything we needed for our stay. The amber colored drinking glasses should probably be retired as they show cracks.

This condo delivered on the VRBO description and the photos. Absolutely everything, including the best furnishings we've ever had for hanging out (comfy couches, heavenly recliners, relaxing lanai furniture). We spent a good deal of time at the condo because its experience and location were transporting!
The kitchen, bathrooms, laundry, and beach gear all had plenty of amenities -- soaps, cleaning supplies, seasonings, etc. -- everything we needed upon arrival so we didn't even have to do a supplies run the first night; we could just relax!
And Betty is every bit the attentive and thoughtful host that previous reviews said she was. She's created a perfect getaway for us to do what we really needed -- rest and rejuvenate!
Oh, and it was mid-80s for both temperatures and humidity, which concerned us about AC, but the sea air and crossbreezes just from opening the windows (screened! Yay!) and doors and using the fans made quite the fabulous wind tunnel!
A+++++++++!!!!!!

We were blown away by the way the owners have equipped this fantastic vacation rental. You will find everything you need to enjoy your stay. Kitchen has cooking basics - spices, oil, kitchen tools of every kind, plenty of glasses, silverware, plastic rap, etc. You actually can cook a meal here without having to go buy every single ingredient. The apartment has a washer and dryer- and detergent and dryer sheets - full size too. There is suncreen, games, books, snorkel gear, nail polish remover, aloe, hair spray- I could go on and on!! The beds are firm but comfortable. The wifi and TV work properly. We didn't use the printer - but wow, how great that it was available.
Then there is the location - close enough to downtown that it's not a hassle to go if you want to eat out - but far enough away that you don't feel like you are staying in a tourist trap. The highlight of course is the view - A++ we set our computers on the patio table and worked and enjoyed the scenery every morning and then went out every afternoon to various sites and places. I think a car is pretty mandatory on the Big Island and having reserved, spacious parking spot was an added bonus.
The pool is clean but a bit too quiet for our taste - and there is no shade at the pool. So we preferred to head to the beach where there was shade trees (we liked Beach 69 - which is a bit of a jaunt - but it had bathrooms, shade, paid but available parking, white sand and enough people to make it interesting, but not overly crowded. There are so many options for beaches - so explore and find your beach! An all day drive to the Southern most point of the US - stopping at Hana Hou for lunch then Volcano Park and then to Hilo for dinner is recommended. Anyhow it's a great location and the fact that you can swim and BBQ on property is a big plus! Only suggestion is updating the instructions on the wall on how to get into the pool as they did not match the instructions given in the check in info. The ones on the wall were not accurate. But most of the signs in the unit were accurate and helpful.
Note this is on the third floor and there are only stairs to the unit. Top floor so you get premium views and breezes - which is good as there is no AC. We were fine with sliders open and ceiling fan over the bed on.
This is a GREAT place to stay for a family or 2 couples as there are two full baths. We would gladly book again.

We nicknamed this condo the "Penthouse" of Alii Villas. It's the last unit next to the ocean, on the third floor, and has unobstructed ocean views, cool ocean breezes, and amazing sunsets from the large lanai. If you love to hear the sound of waves crashing on the rocks this is the condo for you. It is comfortable and has everything you need, including beach chairs and towels to take with you on your outings. The kitchen is well equipped should you feel like cooking. It's a short mile walk to downtown Kona for shopping and restaurants. We highly recommend this condo.

Enjoyed staying here. The condo itself is well appointed. Plenty of cookware and supplies to cook meals with. Has all the usual things you would expect-plenty of towels, some games, stereo, smart tv, etc. Basically if you like to hang out and relax in the condo a lot you'll be comfortable. There are a couple of "buts" though.
1. Bed is a tad small if you're used to a Queen/King. Perfectly fine and reasonable comfortable.
2. The pool you see from your lanai is for the complex next door FYI. Some people might want a little more privacy. Also, it can be a little noisy if there are kids playing in the pool. Didn't bother us all that much but should be noted if you're looking for a quiet and secluded location.
3. Speaking of the Lanai-you do get a great view of the water and it has comfortable furniture. We ate there mostly soaking in the atmosphere.
Overall I'd say it was worth the money.
P.S. Ali'i Dr is a busy road with narrow shoulders and a bike lane with no real walking path so heads up if you intend to walk down to Kailuna-Kona and the pier.

Nice sunsets from the pool area, and convenient for Kailua Bay shopping and restaurants. But, we were surprised that this property doesn't have a dishwasher and we were only provided a used (sour smelling) kitchen sponge and dish soap. Unfortunately most of the "clean" forks still had food residue on them. Not only was this gross, but a health hazard to my wife as she has food allergies. We ended up thoroughly pre-washing all the items we needed using paper towels. This is the first rental where we haven't been provided a new sponge or clean cloth for washing.

My husband and I have stayed in this complex before and find it is perfect for our needs. It is close enough to downtown Kona to walk in and convenient to beaches to the south and quiet. The pool and outdoor grills are great. This condo had a perfect unobstructed view of the ocean and we could sit at the table on the porch for breakfast or the couch for cocktails at sunset. The kitchen has 3 coffee makers (drip, kurig and French press) and adequate dishes and cooking equipment. There were also beach supplies including chairs, coolers and snorkeling equipment (we had our own so did not explore). There were multiple ceiling fans so we did not miss air conditioning and it has a washer and drier. The only issues we had were there were some small mites in both the kitchen and bathroom sinks, but they disappeared toward the end of our stay. Most importantly we chose the refundable damage deposit rather than pay for insurance since two people in their 60s and 70s don’t typically incur a lot of damage. I sent a message as we were leaving about the timeline and process for refunding this deposit but have not received a reply and it has been 2.5 weeks. If this is resolved, we would absolutely ok again

I have not experienced so many beautiful mornings. Thought since we were on the west side of the island that we would not see any sunrise. We didn't, but we had a moonset, and double rainbow that kept getting closer and closer to our lanai. Breathtaking, just breathtaking.

Unit was as advertised. It’s somewhat dated but very clean. Washer/Dryer were great to have. Really nice Ocean View, also overlooking the pool. We spent many hours on the lanai. So many lovely birds and their songs. Grounds were meticulously landscaped. Quiet Complex. There are Residents scattered throughout the Complex. Dedicated parking stall was close to the stairs. Good location to go north or south along Ali’i Drive. Kona trolley does stop out front but we never used. Pool area was very nice. Lots of room and washrooms right there.

I have never booked an ABnb before so I was a bit nervous. Don’t be the view on the losing is the view you get to see every single moment. We watched beautiful sunsets over the ocean, saw cruise ships come to visit and were able to see people swimming the Ironman course. When we arrive there was a packet of Kona coffee and coffee filters already here. Most of the supplies we would need such laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, etc was also available. Also include were beach towels and Beachey items. Even though there was no AC with the fan on and the lanai doors open it was really cool. Most mornings I had to pull up a cover to keep warm. Very quiet most of the time. Are agent (Dawn) was fantastic. Any concern I have I would email and always got a quick response and action was taken as soon as possible. This was my first visit to Hawaii but it will not be my last. When I return I will definitely want to stay in Alii Villages.

The house was clean and comfortable and provided easy access to kona and west coast. The views were spectacular.

The best part of this is the lanai. We made great use of it for meals, sunsets, cards, reading, relaxing, viewing nature, relaxing, relaxing and relaxing. The grounds were very neat and the pool was great. It was just far enough out of town.
The steps were a little tough for "experienced" (older) people but I would come back.

All I can say is that this is a perfect place to stay if you love Kona, the ocean, and a beautiful place to stay. When I arrived, I recognized immediately how clean the property is, and all of the extra details and supplies included to ensure that you have the best and most comfortable stay. The best treat for me, was that the master bed was on the lanai side. Breeze and waves and best sleep ever!

We loved our stay at this place! It's beautifully decorated and the balcony has a clear view over the ocean, I spent so much time just sitting on the balcony admiring the beauty of the waves and all the colorful fish that comes in with the waves.

Overall the property is as advertised. My only comment is that even though we never kept food outside the refrigerator, there were still cockroaches of all sizes in the kitchen silverware drawer, on the counter & in the master bathroom. I know this is a tropical location, but it's possible the property needs to have someone come in & spray more often.

I didn't really think of the nice emails being sent my way, until I had questions. David and the team at Kona were amazing with advice, suggestions, and help setting up activities. I'd highly recommend them to anyone!

Wonderful! Only noted stain on coverlet and extra blanket and had to wash-but easily. Also bathroom rugs a little gray…

We have stayed many times in different condos at Alii Villas, this being the first time here in Jason’s and the first time we've stayed for a month. It was great having a second bedroom and bathroom as we had a guest for part of our stay. Jason was always quick to reply to any question or request and most helpful. This condo looked out along the coast and the town of Kailua Kona and this orientation allowed the flow of breezes to keep it cool. There are 2 air conditioning units which we didn’t have to use plus fans everywhere including on the large lanai. We had the use of beach chairs, umbrellas, several coolers plus boogie boards. The kitchen was well equipped and had many spices and condiments for us to use. We spent most of our time on the lanai, enjoying our morning coffee and meals while listening to the waves crashing against the rocks. We would recommend this condo in a heartbeat and hate to leave our home in paradise.

We really enjoyed our stay in this condo. The bed was comfortable. The view was amazing. The owners were great about giving information about places to visit locally. We ate all of our meals on the lanai enjoying the sounds and views.

This property was a great place to stay and had an amazing view of the ocean from the lanai. It was spacious enough for the two of us and we found the furniture to be well kept and comfortable. Our washer & dryer were quite new and there was plenty of detergent available. The kitchen did not have any dish cloths, only 1 tea towel and 1 hand towel. These items can be purchased but I expected them to be a basic feature in a condo rental. There was no drain tray for dishes so we used a tea towel. There was a few dishwasher pods but with only two of us, I did dishes in the sink for most of the stay.
There were plenty of bath towels, hand towels and facecloths, and 2 beach towels apiece.
The grounds at Ali'i are well kept and beautiful. The pool was great and we spent many afternoons there, even if it was just a quick dip and 1/2 hour of sunbathing. We would definitely stay here again.

This condo was an easy place to be for our month in Kailua. Alii Villas is a well kept property with a great pool and a spacious BBQ deck. Parking is convenient and the whole complex feels friendly and secure.
After a few nights the road noise seemed to fade into the ambient.

The view!! The whole time our 'home' was comfortable (beds included) and spacious and the balcony is also great. Again, absolutely wonderful. I would stay here again without hesitation.
