  My husband and I had the luxury of a two month stay in the Glowacz condo. We found the condo to have all the creature comforts of home - and with a few comforts that spoiled us. The unit was clean, well furnished and a very comfortable King size bed. The location is perfect, as it is close enough to the Kona "tourist area" but just a short walk to oceanside to catch the evening sunset. Stan was easy going and wanted us to enjoy the condo as as much as he does. The rental rate was reasonable for the area and time of year. I would rent this unit again. Richard and Marcia Norman

  The Big Island is wonderful and it is hard not to have a good time. Speaking specifically about the condo I can say that it is terrific and likely the best value on the island. It is well located and a short drive or a good walk to beaches and downtown Kona. The grounds are very nice and very well maintained. There are two nice swimming pools, The condo was very clean. It is well equipped with most everything you might need. The kitchen is well equipped and everything works well. The linens are top notch and there were plenty. The patio is large and has a top notch and excellent BBQ. There are flat screen TV’s, cable and very good WiFi. There is some moderate noise but I never once missed a minute of sleep even with the windows open. There is air-conditioning but I can’t say if it works or not as we never once turn it on. Went to Hawaii to enjoy the weather not the AC. There are ceiling fans in all of the rooms. The place is very comfortable and got to feel just like home. Stan and Pat are great folks who are very attentive and responsive to any needs or questions. I would highly recommend this condo if you are looking for a clean, centrally located, comfortable, well equipped home away from home.

  Owner response: Thank you so much for the kind words. It sounds like you had a pleasant stay. Hope you become a regular. It's been a pleasure having you stay in our home and treating it as your own. Mahalo, Pat and Stan

  I have stayed at Stan and Pats twice now. I feel so much at home there and they are super landlords. Everything in completed in a detailed, personal manner. There are no secrets. You are 1 1/2 miles from Kailua. The condo is VERY Clean and has everything you need to settle in. The beaches in that area aren't the swimming sunbathing but beautiful for sunsets and sitting. I wasn't bothered by being accross from the water. The Lani is awesome to sit, BBQ amd relax in a nice jungle feeling with nice plants. Slept like babies to get up and have another Aloha day. Your there to eat, sleep, shower and do laundry. I have know question that I will be back, just when? This is a winner all the way around! Thank you again Stan and Pat.

  Owner response: Katie always a pleasure to have you and your husband Paul as quests.I would of thought you guys would venture off to Magic Sands beach to swim or Kahalu'u Beach Park. They are about 2 miles away from the condo.Hope that you guys decide to get out of Idaho and become locals. I know I trying to loose my Illinois resident status. Thanks for the review and hope to see you soon. Mahalo, Pat and Stan

  My brother and I stayed in this condo and absolutely loved it. The condo itself was immaculate, and the beds couches, and chairs were all very comfortable. Additionally, the location is perfect. It is within a mile of magic sands beach, across the street from the ocean, and walking distance to the adorable town of Kona. The breeze from the ocean kept the condo nice and cool, and we consistently left the windows open to enjoy the fresh ocean air. The central location made day trips to Volcano National Park and Hapuna Beach all very easy to accomplish without much stress of far drives. The outside lanai was perfect for grilling outside and we enjoyed grilling while listening to the waves of the ocean crash. I would recommend this condo to anyone including families, adults, or anyone looking to experience all the Big Island has to offer!

  Owner response: Thank you so much for leaving a comment. I am so glad you had a pleasant stay at the condo. Hope to see you back. There's allot more to see. Come back any time.

• REVIEWS MUCH TOO GENEROUS!!

  I should start by saying that we have rented condos all over the world and I have never reviewed one before. We rented this condo for five weeks over Christmas 2011. We based our decision on previous reviews and were shocked when we arrived at this condo. Here is a list of things not mentioned in previous reviews: This condo is located right on Alii Drive. The living room is located about 30’ from a 35 mile an hour busy road! There is road noise 24 hours a day and is especially noisy when the Harley Davidsons and trash trucks scream by. At times you are unable to even hear the television. For a light sleeper, like me, this was a nightmare. Five weeks of ear plugs and at times they did not work. As far as sitting on the lanai for a nice dinner or lunch forget it! This unit is equipped with 3 small window style air conditioners on timers. Two of which were absolutely useless at cooling. We were unable to leave windows open due to road noise. So, about three in the morning it was stifling hot in this unit. To add insult to injury, we tried using the fans but in the end received an additional bill for electricity. This unit is becoming very “aged” and is in bad need of an upgrade. The old dish washer was ineffective at doing it’s job, the stove was older and not clean, the fridge was turned off after the unit was previously cleaned and smelled very bad and was growing mould. All of the fixtures (taps, sinks etc,) utensils and carpeting are very worn and should be replaced. The unit is located 1½ miles from Kona Town. So it is not a short stroll to shops and town. It is a 3 mile round trip! Not good for anyone with walking problems. The two pools (in a large development as this, this is not enough) are located about two and three city blocks from this unit. All in all, this unit does get a failing score, especially for the price, and I have a problem understanding the previous high ratings. Be sure to ask owners where their units are located in whichever development you choose.

  Owner response: I would like to respond to this review the only way I know how.I have never had people stay at the condo before that don't leave the condo for days or weeks at a time; they don't like the outdoors and the excitement of Alli Drive. The majority of the condos on the Kona side are on Alli drive.Ironman comes down this street. So the street does have activity and noises.So it does make sense why my electric bill was so high if they never left the condo and closed all the windows.This electric bill was higher than when I had 5 people staying there. I spoke to these tenants several times before they rented while they were renting and when they were leaving and never did they complain until this review. Noise levels that they talk of are a joke. As far as the condo updates the frig was replaced in 2010 the stove was fixed in 2011.The floors were tiled in 2011. So the only rugs are in the bedrooms which were just cleaned in November. There is a monthly cleaning service so the condo is always clean.All I can say is I'm sorry you have a problem with the condo.You should not be renting condos for what you want. If you want quietness; no walking to get to places and run the AC all day and night long you need to stay at the Hilton in Waikoloa for your next stay.But instead of $68.00 dollars a day it will cost you $249.00 a day but you guys will be happy and that's what I want for you. Good luck in you future renting. Stan

  My family of 4 stayed for a month in Jun-Jul, 2011. We loved our time in the condo and on the BI. The condo looks exactly as it is represented in the pictures only more spacious. It is very neat, clean, and nicely decorated. We did not want for anything! The owners are personable and very easy to work with! :) I recommend this unit for anyone wanting a home-away-from-home. After exhausting ourselves exploring the splendor of the BI, it was great to come back to a place that has plenty of room too stretch out and relax for the entire family. For an active family, you are close enough to walk to dining, shopping, and recreation as we did many times. I would like to think that shared spaces= shared blessings and hope that we paid it for forward to Stan and Pat for allowing us the use of their home. As for the BI, the Manta Ray night dive/snorkel is a MUST, mindblowing. Lulu's is an institution of fun. Try the loco moco for a great taste of local food. You can't go to Kona without drinking the COFFEE! We spent a lot of time at Magic Sands beach locally and loved 69 for a drive. Havi is a cool town to explore, Bamboo restaurant is excellent. We went to all the must-sees: green sand beach, volcano, the top of Mauna Kea, Waipoi Valley. There is so much to see and do, a month was not enough!

  Owner response: Thanks guys for sharing our home. We are delighted that you enjoyed our place.Sounds like you got to see alot of what the big Island has to offer.But you are right a month is just not long enough. Hope to see you in Hawaii again. Mahalo, Pat and Stan

  I had the luxury of staying in Pat & Stan's Condo for roughly 8 weeks. This is the second time that I have rented from them. Every stay, the place became more and more cozy. They really are attentive to making sure the tenant is happy. The place was super clean. I have stayed at many hotels throughout my travels and never felt as at home as I did in their condo. It was very warm, great location and the amenities were great. They have two big pools, washer in the unit, nice neighbors and so close that we could walk right into town. I loved staying at their home and would recommend it to anyone. I never needed anything nor did I have anything troubvles with anything but it was very comforting that Pat & Stan were available if I did need something. Thank you guys truly for my wonderful visits to the island!!!

  Recommended for: Romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.

  Owner response: Thank you so much for your comments. We would like to treat all our guests as if they were family.Because if you live on the big island you should have the Aloha spirit and we try to. When we're not there to help other family and friends are close by. Mahalo Nui loa. Pat and Stan

  Owner response: Thanks guys for the nice review. I'm glad you had a great time. It's hard not to in Hawaii. Maybe if you like the snorkeling so much I can talk you into diving with me. The mantas are waiting .Next trip I have a lot of GPS coordinates for beaches and sites that maybe you missed. Keep in touch. Mahalo Nui Loa, Stan and Pat

  We enjoyed our stay here very much. This is a lovely condo with lots of space, clean, comfortable and an ideal location. Stan and Pat are super folks and it's obvious they really care about their place! It felt homey and lived-in; with all the amenities you'd ever want or need a home away from home only a lot nicer weather. The fenced in yard and the grill on the large lanai and 3 flat screen TVs were an added bonus. We stayed in April and the weather was hot and sunny, really perfect vacation weather. The condo and grounds are immaculate and everything you need is there. You can walk across the street to a convenience store or to the farmer's market in Kailua. The shops and restaurants are also within walking distance. Thanks Stan and Pat for a great vacation. Would rent this place again in a heartbeat.

  We LOVED the condo, the space was clean, cozy and an ideal location. It is by far the best bargain on the island and within walking distance to GREAT shops and restaurants. We stayed in April and the weather was warm and sunny with an ocean breeze...perfect vacation weather! It felt like a home away from home with all the amenities you would ever need. We enjoyed using the 3 flat screen TVs and a grill on a large lanai. The condo and grounds are very well kept along with the two pools. Thank you Stan and Pat for a great vacation, your condo is wonderful and we definitely plan to come back!!! Mahalo!!
