Too hot
This place could be a real gem. Unfortunately, it needs a little TLC and the lack of Air Conditioning is a killer. The temps were in the mid 80's with little to no breeze. The Master was OK, but the guest bedroom and the loft were very uncomfortable. If you want to sleep in, in those rooms, forget it. With the windows open the traffic noise and the birds will undoubtedly wake you at 6:00 am. So we had to hit the sack by 9:30 to get sleep but it was still way too warm at that time. Yes, the views on the Lanai are great and the square footage is very nice, but there is way more to a week's stay than those two things. I was expecting better for the price we paid.

A lovely family holiday in a great location
This condo was exactly as described. It was clean. The view of the sunset every night, cocktail in hand, was a high point. Listening to the ocean breaking against the rocks soothed some of our party. Location is good for snorkelling with a number of good snorkelling beaches nearby, and only half an hour to the famous "2-step" beach. We enjoyed hanging out in the pool, and our 3-year-old enjoyed floating there too. Kailua-kona has plenty of places to eat. And there's the coffee shack on the way back from 2-step. There's a shopping area just up the road. There was more than enough living space for our party of 5. If we were coming back, we'd be happy to stay here again.

Great view did not disappoint; but accommodations did!
Our party of 7 (6 adults and 1 adolescent) stayed in this unit for the week of 18-25 Aug 2024. Our unanimous opinion is that we will not return. Lacked adequate ventilation. Don't even think about staying here in August (and probably not July and September, too). No breeze from 2 PM to almost 2 AM. Air flow through the unit was ok in the master BR if the door was left open, and ok in the living room. But the 2nd BR downstairs and the 3rd BR in the loft (tiny twin beds) were uncomfortably warm all night. The fans were filthy!! and did not help much. Lacked adequate cleanliness. Yes, the floors were clean, but all the bed linen and towels had a musty smell. The gasket on the washing machine was covered in rotting mildew that required 3 cleanings with a strong cleaner before we could run a load of laundry through it. Lots of utensils required a thorough cleaning so we washed all silverware, glasses, cups, saucers, and plates before using any of them. The oven needed to be cleaned, and we left it the way we found it. This unit has a good location and great view, but needs maintenance, replacement of worn out items, and a thorough cleaning of just about everything.

Wonderfull place to stay
I loved this property with the ocean right off the back of the balcony. I enjoyed laying in bed listening to the waves. It was a short drive to stores, outdoor market and some of the sites we wanted to visit. I will stay here if it’s available on future visits.

Would absolutely rent again
Roomy three bedroom apartment right on the water. Breeze off the ocean kept the condo a very comfortable temperature. Condo complex amenities (pool, tennis, pickleball, outdoor seating) was easily accessed and uncrowded. There is a good selection if restaurants and shops within two miles. The night swim with the manta rays was a short five minute drive. A must do. Everyone( three retired couples) really enjoyed our stay.

Fabulous Stay! The pictures in the listing are very accurate
We traveled to Kona with 2 friends this trip and stayed at the listing. I was thrilled with the accuracy of the photos and views! The condo was beautifully furnished, there were ample towels and linens. The kitchen had every appliance and implement you would need if you wanted to cook for the week, not that we did. There were boogie boards, beach towels, and lots of other things we did not need. The views from the lanai are incredible. We sat on the balcony every available moment. The main bedroom opens onto the balcony/lanai and you hear the surf all night long. The unit was clean and the directions for trash, recycling were very accurate. Washer, dryer, dishwasher, large fridge with icemaker and filtered water, hair dryers in each bathroom along with basic shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, dish soap. Some spices and condiments. Any communication with the owners was very quick. We had no issues during the stay and absolutely plan to return. The location was convenient to everything. Shopping is available at the top of the hill, along with 2 wonderful restaurants Tropics and Sunset View (I think).

Ocean view amazing!
We picked this condo to be able to sit on the lanai and see and hear the ocean & it is amazing! We also needed a 3 bedroom/3 bathroom unit which is very hard to find that close to the ocean. Loved having a reserved parking spot right next to our unit. There were a couple minor maintenance issues ( closet door off track, curtain pulley needing repair) When we notified the host, they said they would be fixed after we left as we requested that. We would definitely stay here again because we love being so close to the ocean and spent lots of time on the lanai enjoying the view.

Another great visit
This was probably the 12th time we have stayed at Wit & Darlene's condo, so there's no doubt that we enjoy staying here. They have always been very responsive to any issues that need to be addressed, and you can't beat the location and the views from the lanai. We're looking forward to our return next year!

Perfect location for a family to vacation
We enjoyed our stay at your property immensely! The lanai is right in the ocean and it was wonderful to fall asleep to the waves. The beds were extremely comfortable including the pillows. You have all the essentials you need including extras such as beach towels, beach chairs and umbrellas, boogie boards. The towel rack in the lanai was perfect to hang it towels on everyday. It was a perfect stay for us and we will definitely book again if we are back in Kona with family! Thank you!!!

Girlfriends' Kona Getaway
We loved the location, complex grounds and pool, layout of the unit, its kitchen with all necessities (coffee makers, pots and pans etc. No coffee, spices or condiments). The best part is the patio. The owner was very friendly and responsive when we needed to contact him for a couple of issues. He also sought and was receptive to our feedback regarding the dirtiness of the unit and a few maintenance items that needed addressing. We would come again, trusting these things will have been taken care of. Mele Kalikimaka!

Airy ocean front condo
My family and I stayed here for a week and really enjoyed our stay. We had a couple of toddlers and 3 sets of adult couples in our group. We really enjoyed the location of the condo- not in the middle of town, but not too far from anything. The ocean view and sounds were great, especially since we could keep the doors open all the time. The condo was clean and somewhat updated; we felt like the pictures didn’t do it justice. The living space was larger than the pictures show and the high ceilings made it feel very open. We expected no A/C from the listing so that was no surprise, although it did get pretty warm inside most afternoons- definitely doable and not necessarily a negative, but just to be aware of. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking essentials and the owner responded quickly when we didn’t have any dishwashing detergent after checking in. There were plenty of beach towels for our group and the beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, and misc snorkeling gear was awesome to have! Only wish we had some sand toys for our littles to play with, but we did leave a couple for future renters. The pool and tennis courts were just a short walk from the condo and very nice; only downside to the pool was that it didn’t open until 8am. (We had littles and a 4 hour time difference so they were ready to swim much earlier.) Overall we were very happy with this condo and would choose to stay here again if we return!

Stay in Kona
We stayed in this unit 6 years ago and were very impressed with the accommodations so when we returned to Kona this year we booked the same unit again. It could benefit from a little updating and a deep clean. On the plus side: This unit is spacious and has a beautiful ocean view. The kitchen has lots of dishes, pots and pans, and the cupboards were well stocked with spices, vinegar, oil, and an assortment of other items to help with meal preparation. Several beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and a variety of snorkel gear. Plenty of towels. The unit has no AC, so it can be a bit hot at times, but there are several floor and ceiling fans to help move the air if there is no outside breeze. Another thing to keep in mind is that this unit is on the 3rd floor and there are no elevators. We did not find this to be a problem, but it could be for some. The complex has several community BBQs under cover, nice pool and tennis courts, beautiful grounds, is conveniently located to shopping, and has beach access just north of the townhomes where you can sit under shade trees, and try snorkeling if the tide is right and the surf not too rough. The owner is responsive and helpful.
