Great location right next to the beach! Super convenient to restaurants and close to town. Communication with the host was excellent. The property was clean and had everything we needed for our week-long stay.

The condo is in a perfect spot, right next to a popular restaurant and beach, and only a few mile from downtown Kona. The view and sounds of the ocean right out from the lanai are superb.

Our stay was fabulous! The studio was spotless and beautifully decorated with everything we needed to prepare meals in the kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed our morning coffee and sunset happy hour on the lanai, overlooking the ocean with the occasional glimpse of dolphins right in front of us. We look forward to returning!

Jan was very communicative and the condo was exactly as described. She had everything you could need for a week on the Big Island. We took advantage of the mini cooler on day trip, the snorkel gear, the beach towels & chairs next door, and spent every morning on the lanai with our coffee. She also had a fully stocked kitchen to cook anything, including seasonings. The waves were loud and the best sound to fall asleep to every night and wake up to every morning. Location was also great for anything in Kona, or getting around the island. Would absolutely stay here again! Mahalo for an amazing time in Hawaii!

The host was great. The beautiful crashing waves were amazing.the view was spectacular!! The only inconvenience was there were only shades on half the windows & on one lg slider, we watched the shade separate from the roll & fall to the floor.(looked like the glue gave out). Bc of that, even with A/C, it got way too warm & uncomfortable in the condo. Overall, the view made up for it!! Thank you so much. We had a great vacation!

We loved the property & it’s waterfront view! The proximity to Magic Sands beach and Magics Beach Grill next door was convenient as well! It was in a family friendly area where my In-Laws stayed nearby. This VRBO made our Kona, HI stay feel Great!

We were fortunate enough to stay here one day after the remodel was complete and we were blown away. We were already content with the studio with the existing pictures, but wow, the remodel is fabulous! When I say you can't beat the view!? I mean, what more could you want than sipping your morning coffee while watching the spinner dolphins put on a show? The place was very clean, the AC unit worked great in my opinion (I even got chilly at night, and I'm a hot sleeper). Could not be more conveniently located to the beach. If you get a chance to stay here, do it!!

Location next to Magic Sands beach was a plus. The room was clean and the floor to ceiling windows made it feel like we were outside. Beautiful sunsets from the condo. There is no elevator, but we were ok walking up the stairs. There is also no oven, but we went out to eat in the evenings, so we were ok with that. Air conditioning worked well. There is no separation between the bed and the living area. We enjoyed our stay, falling asleep to the sound of the waves crashing in at night.

I will give 7 star to the location. Next door is Beach, park and restaurant. We show dolphins from our room in the morning and for two days in a row. Room is good for 3 person. Host were nice and had good communication through out. Price was right compare to other properties or resort. I will definitely recommend this place for stay in kona. Thanks.

This condo is great! The location couldn't be better, attached to a nice beach, close to many others. The restaurant on premises was so convenient and also good food.
The condo was very comfortable, surprisingly specious, very clean, and had lots of thoughtful amenities - including everything you need for a day at the beach! The owner was also very kind and quick to respond when we had questions. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful location with crashing waves and fish viewing from the room (yup, could see the fish in the waves). Windows and sliding glass doors on alll the view sides. Nice breeze (never even used the a/c, didn't need it) Condo in great condition. Everything we needed. Good location to get to places moderately easily. Thanks. We'll be back if we make it to the big island again

Great spot for convenience around Kailua, and the waves rocked us to sleep every night. We saw fish surfing in the waves which was pretty amazing. The condo is perfect for a couple looking to relax.

We had a fantastic magical stay. Has everything you need and so much more (ice chests, boogie boards, beach umbrella, fully stocked kitchen, extra towels, and the lists goes on). On one side is a wonder park and the other side Magic sands beach... Thank you so much for sharing your place, we will be back!

We loved the location of this property. The water outside the window is so clear you can see yellow and black tangs in the waves. Looks like an aquarium. We also so spinner dolphins playing. Listening to the waves crash on the rocks is the best. It was really hot while we were there in September so the portable AC got a workout but sleeping was comfortable. The bathroom stayed warm. Very clean and comfortable.

Gorgeous space to spend our honeymoon! The building had a working grill we took full advantage of for dinners. You can watch sunset and moonset from the unit itself and fall asleep to the waves. The water is so clear we could see fish in the water from the condo. Easy walk to Magic Sands beach with convenient feet washing stations for the sand. Alice was very kind accommodating check-in and check-out time hiccups we had due to flights. Highly recommend this stay!

![Magic Sands Ocean Front Condo]()
Wish I could give this property 5 stars. Let me start off by stating that this property is ideal if you plan on spending most of your time at the magic sand beach which is right next door & was the highlight of this location. It’s a bit of a driving distance to any shopping centers. The property itself was very clean & had all of the amenities as we like to cook our own meals due to dietary restrictions beach chairs/umbrella. There is a restaurant called Magic Beach Grill right next-door that over looks the beach & convenient for beach goers. There’s a designated parking spot so you don’t have to worry about parking. Our meals on the lanai were breathtaking with the views of the Pacific Ocean & wonderful sunsets. Cons: the unit is located on the 2nd floor and since it’s an older building there is no elevator. The AC in the unit is VERY sensitive, it did not work great for us when we needed it too. The host was very prompt in addressing concerns. However, the AC would not work even if you cracked open the door a little. When we checked in, unfortunately, the refrigerator wasn’t working, which we did not find out till the next day when the host informed us after we reached out regarding the AC unit. He did have a mini refrigerator that was working, however because we did our own cooking, storage was an issue for us. Since the unit is next to a beach & on a main road there tends to be some noise later part of the afternoon. Overall we enjoyed our stay here & would return.

Staying at this oceanfront condo was pure magic. Each morning, I woke to the soothing rhythm of ocean waves and the soft chorus of island birds. The lanai felt like a private perch over the Pacific, where I could watch the waves roll in and spot fish and turtles right from the shore. Inside, the condo was clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything needed for a relaxed stay. The location made it easy to explore Kona’s shops, beaches, and scenic drives, yet it still felt like a peaceful retreat away from the crowds. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to nature’s soundtrack was an unforgettable experience.I must thank for all the facilities and amenities offered within the condo.

I love the little condo by the sea. The slider doors open to a fantastic view of the ocean and the sound of the waves. It was peaceful and quiet. I had everything I needed in the condo. Yet the beach and restaurants were just a short walk away. However, I could prepare myself a good meal in the condo and I and watch the sun go down. It was a wonderful day.

Seriously, BOOK THIS!! You WILL NOT be sorry!!!! My husband and I spent 6 nights at this lovely rental and it was amazing. We saw dolphins our first morning! Enjoyed Kona coffee on the balcony every morning and sunsets in the evening. It is walking distance (across the parking lot) to Magic Sands (very popular beach) so if you feel like going to the beach, a short stroll and you’re there! The rental has EVERYTHING you need for a Hawaiian vacation (so go there first and check it out before you buy a bunch of stuff). Location was close to everything and wonderful. Very easy check out! We just loved our stay here!

The place had an amazing view and was well stocked with whatever we needed for our stay. It is close to many fun places and was perfect for our visit when we came to Kona to do the night snorkel with Manta rays. It’s a small space, but was nicely decorated and very thoughtfully equipped with an amazing view. You can hear the ocean as you fall asleep! Very nice overall.

Lovely place to stay and amazing location next to Magic Sands beach and Magic’s which my husband has dubbed the best mai tai on the island! Oh and you get a 10% discount at Magic’s is an added bonus! Amazing to fall asleep with the sounds of the ocean and the most amazing sunsets!

We loved the unit and the great views of the ocean. This larger unit was helpful for our family of four. Our boys loved Magic Sands beach right next door. They boogie boarded to their hearts content. The condo was well-stocked, including beach toys, chairs, boogie boards, etc. It was the best stocked of the three condos that we stayed at for this trip.
