Of all the places we have visited in over 40 countries and of all the places we have stayed, your condo is the one I would most like to return to. Snorkeling on the Big Island from beaches ranks among the top in the world. Beautiful. Thank you.

Its really refreshing to experience something that was better than you expected. The views off the lanais left us speechless, If there weren't so many fun thing to do in Kona we may have never left the condo. The sunsets were spectacular...goes good w a glass of wine.

Your place was SO TOTALLY FABULOUS. We really really loved it. Big Island is the best, and your home is ideally located and SO beautiful, so well laid out and well equipped, and with so much space. We all had such a good time, my boys said it was better than when we took them to Australia two years ago. We went on to Oahu for a week following our stay in Kona, and it was such a disappointment in contrast to your place. We felt so at home in your house, and the whole way of life is just so chilled and relaxed, completely the way we love to live. We are really hoping to be able to come back some time.Thank you so much for letting us share your lovely home, you guys are really lucky to have such a wonderful place to escape to. Your neighbours were so kind and helpful, we tried not to take advantage of them too much, my sister would have happily moved Sundance in with us if she had half a chance! The house is so beautifully equipped, a great kitchen, along with all those handy extras - boogie boards, cooler, beach chairs etc. And really well located - we spent lots of time at nearby magic sands beach (when we weren't just hanging out with the turtles at the cove by the house). And the 'Top 12' list is full of really good things to do - we loved Lava Java and the Kona Brewery! Thanks again, we will never forget Hale Kai o'Kona.

This condo was far beyond my expectations. Located right on the beach with unobstructed views and a short walk to turtle beach. We travelled with our 3 kids and my in-laws - plenty of space and something for everyone. Two bedrooms upstairs and a downstairs bedroom gave us all a little privacy and no need for my in-laws to climb steps. Newly remodeled we did not want for anything. Beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards provided a great beach experience. A notebook with restaurant suggestions, great beach suggestions, and other fun activities just made this rental over the top. Everything about the listing was accurate and the owners were easy to work with and porvided many great suggestions. I would rate it 10 stars if they would let me.

A beautiful place! Chris & Marty have thought of everything to make your stay in their home a pleasure and worry-free! Our family of six, grandparents, son, daughter-in-law, daughter & granddaughter (ages 9-70) stayed for two weeks. It works! Ample living space, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable sleeping accommodations, clean small ( 8 units) complex, parking on site, within walking distance to shopping & restaurants. Everything we wanted to make our stay memorable! The location is awesome! Right on the beach, private turtle cove just steps away, great views from the lanai, quiet area. Enjoyed the Farmer's Markets on the Big Island.

Chris & Marty have thought of everything to make this feel like your home. Our family of six, grandparents, son, daughter-in-law, daughter and granddaughter (ages 9 to 70) spent two weeks in this lovely home. It works! Ample living space, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable sleeping arrangements (the master bedroom is awesome), great views, clean complex, parking on site, walking distance to shopping and restaurants. The location makes it special!!! On the beach with a private turtle cove just a short walk away. Quiet area. It has it all! The property is just as described, vacation-ready.

Hi Marty and Chris, we had a wonderful time at your beautiful home in Hawaii. We were so rushed, however, in the morning that we had to leave and did not have time to write in your guest book. With three teenagers, we managed to do A LOT of fun activities on the island...as always not enough time. Next time we will leave the kids at home and either come alone or with 1 or 2 other couples. Everything we needed was right there in the condo and I'm telling you, I have never ever slept better in my life listening to the sounds of the ocean right outside. Thank you for a wonderful experience...no wonder you practically begged the owners to buy that condo, it is just wonderful! The green sand beach was our second trip and just as gorgeous as ever. My middle son Sean who is 17 is on a "Hawaii high". And my oldest son had a blast riding ATVs (faster than I'm sure they usually allow), but the guys were the only ones on the tour; and my daughter absolutely loved the horseback riding in Waipo Valley. The snorkeling was amazing! and we swam with a huge sea turtle. No problems at all, we will definitely return and recommend your condo to others. Mahalo Marilyn and Jeff and three happy teens!

We stayed in thus condo for a week in January, 2010. There were five of us. We had plenty of room and felt like we had a home in paradise. The condo was well furnished and very comfortable. We woke up in the morning and watched the sun rise over the ocean. We watched whales and dolphins from the lanai and the turtles came up to our feet at the beach. We were able to walk two miles to Kona and the near by farmer's markets. The big island is wonderful. There is so much to see and do. We loved every minute of it. We will be back next year!

Wow! That was our initial reaction to this beachfront townhome. It was as described and seen on the website, only better. It really is right on the beach, and is even more spacious than what the pictures show. The ocean breezes were fantastic from the first and second floor porches. It was very clean and well-cared for, and all the promised amenities were really there. It truly is a home away from home. It was great having a well-appointed kitchen, and the washer and dryer were very handy. There is plenty of room for watching a movie with the family, and the bedrooms are large and located to afford privacy. The beachhouse has an open, airy, tropical feel to it. It really is in a great location, close to everything. We dined, snorkeled, swam, took a sightseeing cruise, attended a luau, shopped, and visited a coffee plantation, all within a few miles from us. We definitely would stay there again and recommend it to our family and friends. What a gem!
