Everything was great. We liked being right downtown close to shopping and restaurants. The sinks in the bathrooms are very slow draining. Loved the daybed on the lanai it got a lot of use.

Absolutely loved this condo. We've stayed at several condos in Kona Plaza over the years and this has been my favorite. Loved the extra space, the huge kitchen, and even the bed!

This unit is located in downtown Kona with an easy walk to many restaurants and many boutique shops. However, the street behind the condo is very noisy with many vehicles blasting terrible music and often without mufflers. Doesn't Kona have a noise ordinance? Also, the building across the street has a very rusty, deteriorating roof that detracts from the ocean view.Even mornings were noisy with trash trucks beeping and someone grinding metal.The condo is cozy, clean, and well-equipped. The bed and pillows were very comfy.The non-working clock was a distraction. The picture of the woman in the bedroom was spooky, with her looking at us.For handicapped people, there was plenty of room to navigate. The toilet was low and difficult to get up from and I needed help. The bath tub has a low wall and a nice skid-free surface. However, there were no grab rails, so I did not use the tub. Too scary.Note: One of the lanai chairs was wobbly and we did not use that.

Can't get a better location in the heart of downtown Kailua-Kona and interactions with the host were timely and thorough. The condo was clean, new appliances, everything worked as it should. The place is loaded.....towels, beach gear, just about anything and everything a couple or family would want. The kitchen is incredible...Everything is stocked and labeled. We absolutely will go back.

Located near downtown, the balcony view is partially obstructed by the building in front. Close to restaurants and stores. The place was clean, and everything, including the air conditioning, cable, and TV, was functioning well. Communication with the host was excellent.

Great location. Loved having my coffee on the lanai every morning. Communication from the property manager was a little much for my taste, but I suppose that’s better than too little communication. This is a great place to stay if you’d rather not rent a car. Occasional uber rides were very affordable (at least when I was there). There are lots of restaurants and shops in walking distance. I stayed here for a wedding, so I had family members who could give me a ride to further out locations such as the national park

Well stocked in every way! Linens, kitchen, food, beach chairs, beach towels, beach wagon, boogie boards, toys. The lanai was perfect for sleeping and lounging in the nice quiet neighborhood. You can’t find a better location in Kona: it’s a short walk to the beach, good restaurants and shopping. We will be back!!

This apartment condo is a perfect get away location. Super close to shops, restaurants, the water and more. The complex is well cared for. The apartment was clean and fresh. The agent was responsive and helpful. I would definitely stay here again. We are sad to leave. Mahalo

The property is located in a great spot with many shops and restaurants within quick walking distance. The view is ok and the nearby beach isn’t anything great. The property was super clean which was appreciated. The check in process was overly complicated and annoying though with info required on each guest and multiple forms that has to be filled out. Overall was a good experience but if we come back we will stay at Hilo as we didn’t find Kona to be impressive at all.

It was so nice to stay in the unit. We could go a couple blocks to eat & shop. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai to have a cold beverage. We would stay here again.

Loved the location to restaurants and walking about down town. Complex is in need of some updating. Parking garage is a bit scary. Our unit was sufficient for our needs but could use a bit of updating as it is a bit worn looking.

We found Kona Plaza just fine but finding the parking garage was a little more difficult. Check in was easy and it was a nice clean condo meeting all our needs. They didn’t have a cooler but the management took care of it promptly. It’s in a great location to travel to both the south and north shore and close to the airport! There are some nice beaches close and fun shopping centers right outside the condo! We were very happy with how comfortable our unit was. We would go again and enjoy the beautiful sunsets!

I wanted a place I could walk from into the center of Kona and this is the place. Clean and many extras made available for me and my friends to use. Owners are very responsive and their description is very accurate. If you want to experience all that Kona has to offer you can’t go wrong with this condo. Thank you.

Great condo just one block from the main hub of kileau kona. Clean well stocked and nice lanai to sit out on in the evening and morning . Walking distance to shops and places to eat. Definitely try Da Shark Shack.

Great location! Unit was clean. Loved the spacious lanai. Bath supplies were a little on the light side. Daycare at the church with screaming children was annoying during the week if you were in the unit during daycare hours. One of the beds made loud noises every time you moved but we were able to use the other bedroom which was nice

It was comfortable, clean, and a great location. The two beds in the living room were perfect for my grandsons. It was nicely supplied, including beach chairs and other equipment for enjoying the ocean. The balcony view was of the swimming pool. But there’s a lovely upstairs patio on the fourth floor for viewing the sunset and barbecuing.

Pros: location is great, close to everything. Cons: place have cockroaches everywhere. We checked in very late night, after turning lights on, cockroaches were running all over the kitchen and living room area. Office was helpful to supply us with traps, but still seeing them every day wasn’t pleasant. Property description is not clear upon the booking. We stayed 10 days 4 people, and were supplied with small amount of amenities that last 1 day. When you book the property, and made a payment, contract is send out later with details that should be obvious prior to ovoid surprise. Also no one mention the building structure look unsafe. All garage level have supporting posts and beams, cracks all over foundation. Additional sofa in LR was uncomfortable to sleep on.

Right in downtown, great location. The condo was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the lanai was spacious. The kitchen is very small and did not lend itself to much cooking. The toilet hose leaked, and the property manager told us to put a towel down.

Great location. I could walk to a nice place for snorkeling in about 6 minutes. The instructions need to be updated. The complex is being upgraded. So, there is no guest parking and no assigned parking contrary to the instructions. Other instructions that have changed due to the construction should also be updated.
