Arriving, we found the 'Storm Doors' up and a 2" cockroach in the kitchen, which I killed. This condo has large, storm doors that are erected anytime there is high surf.These doors completely block your view of the ocean in the living room and kitchen. These doors were up the entire next day. They were taken down the day after that. The following week they were up again for a day due to high surf warning (the ocean was calm).On Day 2 there was a fly hatch-out, with 10-12 house flies buzzing about. After swatting them all that day, the same thing occurred on Day 3, with a similar fly swatting session ensuing. (Condo does not come with a fly swatter)We had a water leak under the kitchen sink which wasn't fixed until two days later due to a complex-wide water shutdown the day the leak was discovered. About halfway thru the trip, a smoke detector in the master bedroom began to 'chirp' in the middle of the night due to a low battery. The patio set, which is old, with legs of the chairs rusting away is completely missing a fourth chair. The upstairs shower doors are so old they barely function and make you wonder if they will fall out when moved.The window in the bathroom does not stay open and will slam shut intermittently.The headboards to the twin beds upstairs are connected to nothing and fall over when the beds are moved. The condo is 920 sq feet. Divided by two floors, this place is small!Beds are very uncomfortable.Mngmt responded to texts quickly.

This is a great unit in a lovely complex. At the end of the row of buildings, there are not many people walking by this ground floor unit. The shoji screens open the bedroom to the living area for an open feeling. We had small children with us and the lawn area in front was a great place to use up some energy. The pool area was perfect and friendly. The complex is a little far from downtown Kona for us, but the location was quiet and all about the direct ocean access. Plenty of water toys to take to the beach. We loved having an almost private sandy beach to sit by.

We had a family of 5 plus grandparents. The condo was beautiful and fit us perfectly. The resort grounds were exactly as advertised. A great, quiet community that had a spectacular view. We adventured all over the island and loved coming back to the condo to relax and enjoy the pool. Thanks for sharing your place.

Your lanai is a stones throw fom the ocean. The waves mezmerize you to sleep. A daily front row seat to a warm and breathtaking sunset is all but garrenteed. The accomidations are spotless and the owner...whom you deal with directly...is quick to reppspond and help however needed.

This was our 2nd stay at this unit, it’s pretty quiet except for the ocean, which we love.Very comfortable eating outside, the kitchen is great with everything we need. The people in and around this complex are so nice. The beach is close, we saw turtles. We had a great time.

Lovely condo with an INCREDIBLE view! We could watch and hear the waves crashing not 30 feet from our deck. Condo had all that we needed, and the location was great. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a wonderful condo spacious and well equipped. It just needs some updating. The deck is huge but the rocker chair needs replacement as well as the pillows. Perhaps 2 rocker chairs to go with the love seat to create seating for 4. The carpet throughout is getting old and not in line with tropical decore. Beds far too soft for us. Perhaps better mattresses needed. Loved the resort amenities. Dennis gets 10 out of 10 as a conscientious host. We know he will deal with these issues. Rod and Betty

Perfect vacation spot. Quiet with beautiful surrounding. Well cared for grounds with manicured lawns and beautiful flowering plants and shrubbery. Shopping Center very close buy with super market, pharmacy, theatre complex and interesting restaurants. The resort is adjacent to a beach, popular snorkeling beach within walking distance, and other beaches within short driving distances. For those who prefer, the complex has a beautiful pool.An ideal vacation spot.

Very good overall. The floorpan of this unit, with a large common area and two separated bedrooms/bathrooms, is excellent for a couple or 4-member family. Spacious patio. Very useful that it has a washer-dryer, though you'll need a trip to the shopping center (1 mile drive) to get laundry soap.

The condo was great. We enjoyed our stay very much. Was disappointed to find a 1500 dollar charge on our credit card with no explanation or receipt. When we questioned VRBO , they stated it was for AC. They stated we asked for this on the booking site. We have no recollection of this. I would rather know our total cost up front so would rather the AC be added into the cost per night at the beginning. Otherwise our trip was excellent.

The townhouse was clean and well stocked. Knutson and Associates was easy to deal with and very prompt on the one service call we made and followed up. Surf and Racquet Club was in a good location and had a pool, pickleball and tennis courts, BBQ. Our family enjoyed our vacation very much.

The property was spotless. We found the deck furniture very uncomfortable and felt the high table and chairs would have been more useable if the chairs swirled they were difficult to get in and out and pulled up to the table. The parking was not good for us as we are both a bit disabled and found it awkward to be looking down the block for parking space.

Everything was absolutely wonderful and we found all the supplies we needed. It was a huge bonus to have all the sports equipment. Loved the quiet time rules as we were exhausted by 900 each night and it was perfect to not hearing all the partying. The deck was lovely, especially in the mornings listening to the birds and drinking coffee. The only slight complaint is that the king sized beds were a little too soft for us but hey, we were in Hawaii heaven so we sucked it up!

Location met our needs perfectly between Kaanapali and Kapalua. With easy access to condo from parking to unit. Clean and comfortable. Well stocked with linens and beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler, umbrella, etc. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, but suggest having microwave safe plates. We did have a hiccup with twin bed assembly, but we addressed it and notified management, with our reply.

There were pros and cons. I just want to say the property is amazing. The view is unbeatable, truly breath taking. The condo is stocked with everything beachy from sunhats to beach chairs and boogie boards. Although housekeeping did an amazing job, I felt for the price we paid (5k , 8 days) it could have been overall nicer. I read the reviews and went through the photos in detail before deciding on this property. I may have a different level of cleanliness expectations than some so I acknowledge that firstly, also I know seaside rentals take some damage from the sea air. The kitchen cabinets need some work, some don't close and are pretty dingey inside and out. The couch was really well used and had holes in the fabric. It just overall did not feel the unit was "newly remodeled" as advertised. There is no Air conditioning so if you leave for the day make sure you close the blinds for its nearly impossible to cool down at night. Ultimately our vacation was simply beautiful as always, but we will not stay in that condo again.

This rental has a spectacular view! We are thrilled that we were able to spot Humpback whales every day from the lanai. We watched outrigger canoe groups, kayakers, and other boats. Each day was concluded watching the sunset hoping to see the green flash. And we enjoyed the.sweet little birds keeping us company by the lanai. The rental is clean, comfortable, well stocked. Edgar, the owner, was very attentive when a couple of questions came up, which we greatly appreciate.

We loved our stay here! We could have lived on the beautiful balcony where we watched whales every morning and afternoon—they were everywhere! We loved the central location and quiet complex. It had everything we needed. We traveled to different beaches every day, all within 20-30 min. Loved the shopping center across the street for dinner/shaved ice/ groceries. The condo was absolutely beautiful! Huge kitchen and living room with a huge couch. Bedrooms were great and two bathrooms were nice when we returned from the beach. Plenty of beach towels, chairs, cooler, and other beach tools. We stopped by the pool and it was clean and refreshing. Lots of grills around for guest use. Tennis courts looked nice too and some rackets were in the condo but we didn’t get over to play. Overall this was the perfect spot to enjoy Hawaii! Felt very luxurious.

My husband and myself really enjoyed our stay. The townhouse was beautiful and the grounds were amazing. Very impressed with the care taken to keep everything so nice. The view of the ocean breathtaking! We spent many hours enjoying the beach! Be aware of the sea earchin, they are very beautiful but could hurt you, but the water is so crystal clear you have no problem seeing them. We were able to see so many beautiful fish and even got to watch some whales one evening! I would highly recommend a stay here!

Sunsets on the back patio were great. We had young kids with us and the grass outback was fun for them. The pool was nice, never super crowded, mostly older people sitting in the chairs not actually swimming which was fun for my kids to have almost the whole pool to themselves.never heard too much noise above us. Kitchen is decently stocked with needed supplies.

It was great! The only thing bad in the house is a step inside the front door that wasn’t marked and looked just like the floor! My wife and I both tripped on it twice than I took the rug out of the downstairs bathroom and marked it with that. Other wise the place was perfect.
