This remodeled and tastefully redecorated two-story Oceanfront Townhouse is truly an Island Jewel.

***** Looking for a top-line oceanfront place at a great price?**** We are offering a 25% discount for available nights in JULY 2009 (35% for those available in June 2009) ***** Take a look also at our other ocean front properties on VRBO (34203 & 34465)

This oceanfront townhouse exudes pride of ownership: Balinese and Hawaiian furnishings and fine art work grace every room, creating a home designed for comfort and relaxation! We have filled our home with personal extras: Broadband Wireless Internet, CD collection of Hawaiian music, books on Hawaiian history, culture and Big Island sights, binoculars for viewing whales, dolphins and turtles, and more.

Let the soft breeze and ocean waves lull you to sleep in the Makai (toward the ocean) Master Bedroom, furnished with a brand new King bed, music and cable TV. The tropical Mauka (mountain side) bedroom has two twin beds (easily converted to a King with kit provided), and teak and bamboo furnishings.

Keeping to our motto "Just Say No to Rugs," this townhouse sports bamboo hardwood flooring in the bedrooms and tile throughout the ground floor.

From the ground floor Lanai you can watch Spinner Dolphins swim the coastline daily, whales breaching, and incomparable sunsets, with the ocean waves literally breaking in front of you. There is not a single ocean front condominium in all of Kona that is this close to the water!

Located in the upscale Keauhou area, this is a highly desirable, quiet, friendly, and gated 14 acre garden community featuring 3 lighted tennis courts (tennis pro available), a swimming pool, and nicely done community BBQ and picnic areas.

Walk to Kahalu’u Beach Park (ranked among the best snorkeling reefs in the Islands), and to the nearby Keauhou shopping center for shops, dining, cinema, groceries, and free Hula and local community entertainment weekly. Excellent golfing is available at the adjacent Kona Country Club Ocean Golf Course, or take the day off and watch the local surfers “shred” a few waves.

This is an excellent and safe walking area with many sights, open expanses of coastline, and minimal automobile traffic. The area is great for strolling, and rich in historical landmarks and heiau (temples), one of which is adjacent to the unit. This area was once the home of the Ali'i (Hawaiian chiefs), and the waters were once reserved for use only by royalty!

The owners spend a lot of time in the Kona area, and every booking comes with their own “Big Island tips and secrets”! This is a wonderful retreat you are sure to enjoy!

We also own a uniquely romantic and elegant condo at Kona Makai, VRBO listing # 34203, and a private oceanfront 1/1 studio vrbo # 46951, (part of our 2/2 + 1/1 Kona oceanfront home Hale Honu @ VRBO # 34465. If you like to sit in privacy just above the breaking waves, take a look there too!) Aloha! Peter & Darla

  • My sister and I had a lovely time in this condo! We couldn't get enough of the spectacular views of the ocean from the patio- just feet away from the water. We recommend it highly, and look forward to returning with our families.

  • Hi Peter, I wanted to write to say thank you for making such a wonderful little condo as KKSR #186 available to travelers like me. The rate charged was absolutely fair and the unit and complex were just fantastic. I can't wait to come back! Falling asleep and waking up with the ocean crashing on the rocks was awesome, as was the fact that meals and drinks could be taken seaside. There is plenty of privacy there too which was really great. I had packed my own binoculars and then found I didn't need to have done that; the condo is so well-stocked. I hope I can rent from you again in the future!

  • This was a beautiful place to stay, waking up hearing the ocean and the beautiful view was wonderful. They are right next to the community pool which was very convenient. The best snorkel place is just a 5 min drive away! Peter and Darla do a fantastic job of providing recommendations for places to visit and dining places. I would definitely stay here again.

  • We would highly recommend a stay at KKSR #186. The view could not get any better. We also would like to thank the maintenance guys, they came by through out the week to be sure everything was ok, very friendly! Highly recommend a walk to Jameson Restaurant for lunch and a bottle of wine. The locals and their boogie boards are an exciting event while we enjoyed our lunch. We look forward to our next stays at the same location.

  • I stayed here in late April/early May of 2007 as part of a large wedding party. While most of the wedding stayed in another Peter and Darla owned property, I got to relax and enjoy beautiful sunsets from my back door! This condo was the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the main center of Kona (which is a convenient drive away), and I will most definately consider staying there again should my travels ever bring me back to the islands.

  • We have just returned from a lovely 10 day vacation on the Big Island of Hawaii where we stayed at the Keauhou-Kona Surf & Racquet Club. Peter and Darla were tremendous to work with as we made our arrangements. Their responses were timely and highly informative. The information they provided to us prior to our arrival on "things to see and do" was outstanding and went a long way to make our holiday memorable. The townhouse was very comfortable; equipped with all of the necessary amentities. We would highly recommend renting accommodations from Peter and Darla. Thank you for a lovely stay in paradise!!!

  • We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Peter & Darla's KKSR unit! Sat on the lanai daily and watched whales in the (close) distance. Beds were confortable and the unit is decorated beautifully. We felt very much at home here and were very sorry to leave.... vacation time is far too short!

  • June 12-16, 2005 Aloha, We enjoyed our time here in Kona! Thanks for the extras like the flashlight, binocs, cooler, & music! Mahalo, The Lears Below are some of our suggestions for future guests :). --There's lots of awesome snoreling around here. We especially liked the beach just about 1/2 mile north of here [Kahalu'u Beach Park}. Green sea turtles can be found right up near the shore even on busy days! It was great!

  • i've made over 40 visits to hawaii and this was my first time staying at KKSR and booking with peter & darla - my stay was FANTASTIC!!!!! the ambience in the townhouse is very tropical and so relaxing (not to mention how convenient it is to get to the pool for awesome tanning) - it truly is a place where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the world and just mellow out. i loved falling asleep to the sound of the surf. i also had the pleasure of meeting peter & darla in person and i have to tell you they are two terrific people! you'll really enjoy your stay here and it's such a pleasure to rent from folks who obviously take pride in their homes and want others to be comfy during their stay. i urge you to take a peek at their other rentals in kona if the townhouse is booked - all of their properties are outstanding.
