Breathtaking View on Beautiful Sandy Beach Oceanfront

On arrival, the view out the lanai was incredible. But I had some concerns about the screens and sliding doors. But patience was rewarded. To be on the waterfront with fantastic scenery means you have excess humidity and all that comes with it. A very small price to pay.

Before arrival, we were concerned about no AC, but opening the doors to the lanai made the entire condo comfortable. There are several fans and ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Quite comfortable, as were the beds.

Covered parking was so appreciated, and there was plenty of room for our Tahoe.

All the appliances worked well, there were plenty of supplies for the washing machine and dishwasher. Great cooking utensils. Comfortable furniture in the living room (reportedly, I spent every waking moment on the lanai).

This is a great location, convenient for snorkeling trips, Kahalu’u beach park is nearby. Highly recommend Adventures in Paradise kayaking.

Plenty of beach towels, and ice chests. Beach chairs are inadequate, but a trip to Costco fixed that.

THE VIEW! Wow. We spent one entire day just sitting on the lanai being awestruck.

Now for the downside.......We had to leave.

Did I mention the view?

Our family (2 adults, 2 kids - 4 and 7) had a wonderful stay here. The view and sounds from the ocean at your doorstep are perfect. Our kids also loved the complex pool that allowed for safe swimming as the ocean right out front is rough and rocky. The location was very convenient via car to both town and to good snorkeling locations to the south. The condo was clean and well stocked. We recommend it highly and can also attest to the friendliness and good communication of Cecile the owner.

Very nice unit.Clean, well kept and well organized. The glass door wall that slides open the full width of the condo was great. Indoor-outdoor living at it's finest. Dining options were stools around the bar or the table and chairs on the lanai. With there only being 6 total units, it is quiet, there were only adults at the time and most of the time we had the pool to ourselves.There is a tennis court and paddle ball court available( located above the parking area). We missed a BBQ being available and a tv in the second bedroom, but most of all your needs are anticipated and met. Very good internet service, coolers for the beach, some snorkel gear and beach chairs for outdoor adventures. Check what is available before going to buy stuff. Grounds are well maintained. Pool very clean saltwater pool. It was crisp and refreshing! Plenty of lounges and chairs and tables around the pool. Waterfront could not be any closer. The waves and the fish you can see, as well as turtles, were great. There are numerous tidepools out front and we took a walk almost daily to the right out the gate on the beach to a cove where there were turtles daily. Our hosts were very accommodating about letting us arrive early and place our luggage and such as the cleaning crew was finishing up, so we could go to the grocery store and load up on food and snacks- Walmart, Safeway, Costco, and Target are all pretty close to this location. A local must for breakfast is 808 Grindz. Great food, great prices, as well as Island Grill.

Having a washer and dryer are a great bonus, saves on packing too much! Unit is centrally located on Alii Dr- head left and quickly be in Kona for eating and shopping as well as heading right out of drive and being close to KTA supermarket, Foodland(locals) good prices, Captian Cook monument, as well as the Sheraton Kona, with nightly sightings of large Manta rays that come to feed in the waters around the hotel. Great Artist market just down the drive as well as plenty of fresh fruits and veggies at the big market in Kona across from Bubba Gump Resturant area. A must try is the Apple Bananas! They also have the biggest Avacado's I have ever seen! We found everything about this unit to be perfect for two couples vacationing together. We would definitely go there again should the opportunity arise.

Thank you again for sharing your slice of Aloha with us!

This place has it all- a spectacular view, the sound of waves hitting the rocks, a small beach in front of the unit, great location, and all the amenities that you will ever need. There is a lot of TLC given to this place, and it was a privilege to stay there.

It sleeps 4 very comfortably.

When we go back to Kona, we will be requesting this place again.
