Abundant coral reefs give refuge to limitless fish and wild life. Turtles can be seen popping their heads above the water lapping along the shore just below the lanai.

Restaurants and shopping just minutes away along the ocean walk to the Kona Village less than one mile stroll away. A number of modern shopping centers with supermarkets (Safeway, Sac'n Save, and more just up the hill from the shore. Costco, Home Depot, Lowe's nearby. Major world renowned golf courses and world record marlin fishing are near by. Swimming, hiking, and bicycle riding everywhere at the home of the world famous 'Ironman Triathlon' held every October.

Great Spot in Kona!!
This was my first time at this Property. Super close to the Main Area to walk to for all kinds of things. The surprise was the sandy beach next door.

Beautiful place to stay.
Beautiful place to stay. I only have 2 complaints. 1 is the queen bedroom didn't have a dresser so that was disappointing. Second is the beach was very rocky, so not much of a beach to swim. Other then that, the two was amazing and i would come back again.

Kona Reef Stay
This is unit has the best location with a corner view of the beach and surf. It is a great location.Close to town restaurants and shopping. It does need a little TLC as being at the beach takes its toll. The pool and jacuzzi are well maintained along with the facility. We did have a bit of a problem with the refrigerator and dryer, however the maintenance contact was handy and took care of the frig.

Beautiful Views and Proximity to the Ocean is unbeatable!
Everything was great and clean. There were only 2 negatives. One was the ac. It does have ac but only in the living room. There is a fan system that sucks air out of the living room and push that “cooler” air to the bedrooms, but the bedrooms were always at least 10 degrees Fahrenheit warmer. The second was the sliding glass balcony/lani door. It was very difficult to open and close and needs to be repaired. Overall was a great place to stay and we would definitely stay here again.

A lovely spot but nasty condition of interior!!
Really a great unit but it is a filthy mess!! The lanai has a rusted beach buggy in the corner with chairs that no one will ever be able to sit on which is sad because there is a beach right next door! The window cranks have a horrible scale attached to them and the screens have so much dust it is impossible to see through them.If someone does a deep cleaning this unit would be pleasant!

Short stay
This location is incredible! The condo is older but quite nice. We spent most of the time on the lanai. The view is breathtaking. In the morning the water is so clear you can see many fish (especially the yellow tang) and even turtles. The only thing I wish I knew before booking is that the beach here has such a strong current and that the shallow rocks are covered with urchins so the locals strongly advised me against swimming or snorkeling at this beach. We did have a car and were able to drive to a great snorkeling spot, but I was hoping to snorkel here. Otherwise, this is exactly as advertised. morning morning

PROS: The listing is exactly like it said regarding the view! You are literally right on the ocean! Can’t beat how beautiful it was! Communication with the owner was great and check in was very easy! Great walking distance to the Main Street/Restaurants! The most amazing snorkeling ever, just to the left of the condo!! CONS: The condo is VERY outdated! Not just the decor…. Towels, linens, all the finishes, utensils, etc.. There is no central air, only a wall air conditioning in the living room! (It did eventually cool down the unit). Place just needs some major updating and paint! The balcony sliding door is extremely heavy and doesn’t open and shut Properly! Could be very difficult for some to open/shut!

Nice Place, Great Location
Place is nice and close enough to the touristy downtown area to walk but not so close to be in the thick of it. View of ocean and sunsets is great. Bit of a drive for some of the island's attractions but you can't stay close to everything if you want to see the whole island. Only issue was finding the parking permit and that was handled with in an hour. Off street covered parking, good boogie boards, snorkels and flippers are all just a few things left for your use. We didn't spend a lot of time in the apartment but what we did was great. Pool and hot tub are nice as well. All in all a nice, hassle free stay.

Great stay - great location!
Complex is a little dated, but kept up nicely. The unit itself has been remodeled and was great. It is on a corner and the views are unbelievable. Ocean sounds nonstop - it was fantastic. The AC unit is in the main room and does a solid job. The back bedrooms were a little warm. The pool looked nice, but we were out and never used it. It’s a short walk to town. So much to see and do there. There is a small homeless population in/around town, but we never felt unsafe. There is one short (100 yards) section of the walk to/from town that is dark/isolated, whether you take to main road or the coastal resort road.

Nice view
Es ist wirklich wundervoll gelegen. Das Appartement ist gut ausgestattet, Betten & Bad alles prima. Das Meeresrauschen war zu unserer Zeit wirklich krass laut. Mich hat es allerdings nicht gestört. Ich hätte mir ein kleines Makeover des Balkons gewünscht. Dadurch das es unmittelbar am Ozean liegt, sind Möbel sowie Strandstühle etc. rostig und sehr in Mitleidenschaft gezogen worden. Für den Preis kann man da Nachbesserung erwarten.

First time visiting the Big Island
My family and I had an amazing time for our first visit to the big island! Communication was easy with Ken and he was very quick with replies. Description was accurate, some of the pics were not the same of the lanai furniture, but not a big deal. Location was perfect and convenient for walking to shop, eat, etc…Beautiful sunsets every night from the lanai and so fun watching the surfers and bodyboarders! Also spotted a few turtles swimming along the rocks, too! We hope to visit, again, some day.

If the windows were clean, the view would have been perfect!
This condo was in an ideal location. The only complaint I have is that it was dirty. The windows had to be opened so we could see out and get the gorgeous view. I doubt the condo has been dusted in the last six months and the dining room chair seats were soaking wet when we arrived. (on Sat). They were still damp on Thursday. I don't know if the cleaners washed them? I understand the owner is not local but he needs to get a property manager to oversee the condo and the cleaning. Also, might consider hiring different cleaners. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay and the great location. We would come back if the cleaning issue gets resolved.

What a view!
This was a perfect destination for my family and i. Kitchen set up.for full meals, clean, spacious, and oh man the views. The sunsets off the lanai were spectacular. Easy walking to everything in town, and a great starting point for longer destinations. Beach outside the door, waves crashing, it was awesome. Easy to get to, only caveat is you need to be a pretty good at parking in tight spots. The garage is clean, safe, and small. Other than that, awesome all around.

Volcanoes - And a great time
This VRBO was exceptional clean. The views were exceptional. We all enjoyed watching the surfers - and they definitely were very good. the waves were 10 to 20 feet at times. We were on the beach next door a lot. We enjoyed the two bedrooms and the full kitchen. Couldn't quite figure how to operate the tv but that was OK since it made us get outside and enjoy the area. Restaurants downtown are all within walking distance and the are realy exceptional. very friendly area.

We enjoyed our time at this this condo. The view was outstanding and you could not ask to be any closer to the ocean! Great location. The little beach area next door was very nice. The condo was comfortable and had everything we needed. The only suggestions we would have is that the unit could use a good deep cleaning and the linens, towels and pillows should probably be upgraded. We truly enjoyed our time in this condo and would definitely stay here again. It was a great experience!

Wonderful Experience
This shows how much we loved our stay -- we have already booked this room for next year. It had some problems (TV wasn't working, toilet in master bath kept having the chain fall off, drier was touchy) but it more than made up with great views, ocean sounds, and a pool our 6-year old grand-daughter fell in love with. Oh James was awesome with our addressing our problems.

Perfect place to stay!
It was exactly as described. Probably the best view in the whole building. It was very clean. There was a beach just next door. If you go to the beach, take the pool key so you can get all the sand off before you go to the room. There was a lot of beach gear left behind that came in handy. It was walking distance to shops/restaurants so we didn't have to drive to get meals or shop. Reading some of the other reviews: homelessness: I never felt unsafe. They didn't come down to the water and bother us. They kept to themselves. AC: We were there in the winter. Keeping the windows open/plus the fans at night was good enough for us. Plus we were high enough up that I felt safe sleeping with the windows open (something I don't do at home). rundown: It's a condo by the beach. It's constantly being eaten by salt water. The windows sticking a little as they open doesn't bother me. I'm there for the view, not perfect windows. Only issues: Parking is tight. We found a spot every day but if we got there too late we were in the *last* spot available. (But we always got one.) Wifi/cell phone data signal was weak. My kids needed to do some schoolwork and weren't able to all work at the same time. water pressure/temperature- the pressure was very soft (and was the same at the pool so I think this is just standard for the building) and make sure you get the first shower or else the hot water runs out! These items weren't deal breakers though. I would stay here again.

Property needs some TLC
The only saving grace for this condo is the view. Property is run down, windows fall out if opened, rust coated drapery rails. Old worn patio cushions and table. This property is very walkable to down town Kona shops and restaurants. If I return to Kona, I will not stay in this unit, but try another unit in the complex
