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

  • Just back (sadly) from our wonderful trip, and I wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your condo. The location was FANTASTIC, and the space worked out perfectly for the 4 of us. We appreciated how well-equipped it was. The kids really loved hanging out at the pool. Thanks also for all the tips on where to go and what to do! I hope that we’ll get to return someday soon.

  • Aloha Peter, Just a little note to thank you for the use of the townhouse. We really enjoyed the location right on the ocean and it was just fantastic to wake up in the morning and step out on the patio to watch the waves crash on the rocks, see the outrigger canoes go by and on the last morning even see the spinner dolphins right in front of the house. Snorkeling on the Big Island is great (beautiful coral, fish and lots of turtles) and we love the more original style of the island compared to the high rise buildings and freeways on Oahu. Your house is well stocked and very conveniently furnished with plenty of towels, sheets and beach paraphernalia and it was great to have the pool and tennis court right across. Our 9 year old was in the pool right as it opened at 8 am every day. You might want to have the upstairs toilet checked since it keeps running (if you don’t manipulate the handle a bit) and wasting lots of water. Frits wasn’t able to resolve the internet connection problem with the local support but he used some neighbors wireless once in a while. Mahalo, Frits and Annemiek DenHartog

  • Our family of five enjoyed our brief stay in this lovely townhouse with its breathtaking view of the ocean from the patio. We loved the fact that this townhouse was close to a shopping center for groceries and to a beautiful beach for snorkeling. The KKSR pool was directly across from our front door and our parking spot was conveniently located outside our door. Peter and Darla were helpful before, during and after our stay. We also appreciated their personal recommendations and lovely decor! Although we did not have a chance to play any tennis, there were plenty of courts to choose from. We highly recommend this clean and lovely condo!

  • The KSR townhome was perfect for our visit to Hawaii. The location is convenient to the market and shops yet feels remote because of the waterfront patio. The gated entrance adds to the security and you can park directly in front of the unit. Great property.

  • Peter, Thank you, thank you, thank you for your wonderful home. We vacation in Kona every year but this was the first time we rented a condo vs. hotel rooms. What we found was the relaxation factor grew 100 fold thanks to your lovely home. The kitchen was well stocked, the bed comfy and the views.... well they are spectacular. Being lulled to sleep every night by cool trade winds and the sound of the surf was so relaxing for us. We have already passed on your info to our friends who are grateful for a special place to stay. We will be back!!! It was a pleasure dealing with you! Mahalo for everything! Anna and Michael

  • 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.
