We had a slight hiccup with the cleaning of the condo, however, Sage made things right for us. The condo is comfortable and roomy for a studio and the view of the ocean is spectacular. The condo is well-appointed with everything you need. The proximity to Magic Sands Beach and Kailua-Kona town make it a convenient spot.

Great location next to Magic Sands Beach (aka disappearing sands beach, so there may or may not be an abundance of sand on the beach).This is a prime location in Kona, one mile south of the best simple snorkel spot in Kona, right on Magic beach and about 3 miles from the bay.Magics Beach Grill offers great food and you can stay close to home or make daytrips up and down the coast from this central location.Don't miss Cook's Bounty farm stand in Captain Cook 15 minutes away. Groceries and pharmacy easy access at plaza 7 minutes south (easier than going to town for quick needs). Highly recommend this spot and the rental was as advertised.

They are not kidding that it is ocean front! RIGHT over the water. Which was amazing and kept us up one of the nights because the waves were so loud. So crazy! The place is very cute. I think removing that popcorn ceiling would go a long way. Very clean. The hot water in the shower is not that hot. It was fine, but I like hot showers and this was not that. The restaurant in that building is a gem, far better than anything we ate at in Kona so check that out. Thanks for a nice stay.

Great spot

Great location right by the beach with gorgeous views from the room and beautiful sunsets. Good spot to explore all parts of the Kona side of the island from. Only down side was the tiny water heater. We had to learn to take a 3-4 min shower each before the hot water ran out but certainly not a deal breaker.

Great location for beach lovers

Easy access to a great, sandy beach and spectacular view of the ocean from the room. I will say the view from the room is a little bit affected by the residual of some old window treatments, but if you open the windows there it is. The host was very responsive to questions via text. The overall property itself is on the older-side and shows a little bit of wear, such as the pool area, but it is still comfortable and in a great location if you are coming to Hawaii for a beach and those lovely ocean sunsets.

The sounds of the ocean put me right to sleep! Very restful! Kitchen and bath cabinets could use updating. Small, condo sized water heater, so short showers.

Little piece of heaven

We loved staying here! The place is very clean with beautiful art pieces on the wall. It is a third floor unit so you never hear anyone above you. It's also located about in the middle so not too close to the pool or the parking area. They have basic amenities stocked including beach gear you can use steps away at Magic Sands. And the view is ridiculous - crashing waves and sunsets. Your can even see reef fish in the water. This place is magical.

Amazing Waterfront Condo!

We had the absolute best time staying here. We spent 10 amazing days at this condo and enjoyed every minute of it. Sage was very helpful and communicative. She ensured that our check in process was flawless, and it was perfect to get off a long flight and have a place to relax. In addition to the amenities and location, there is a very convenient bar/restaurant right downstairs, and the convenience was amazing. I will definitely be returning! Thank you, Sage, for a fantastic stay! :)

Great location!

My wife and I have been visiting Kona once or twice a year for many years and for the past six years, we've brought our child who has really taken a liking to Magic Sands Beach. We usually stay right in downtown Kona, but this time we decided to try a place closer to Magic Sands—and we weren't disappointed! The area was quieter and having the ocean waves crashing right outside was spectacular, especially with the stunning sunset views. With Magic’s Beach Grill/Shack nearby offering coffee and light breakfasts each morning, we were well-prepared for our days. Waking up, grabbing a coffee and a quick bite, and then walking over to the beach was incredibly convenient. As light travelers, the layout of the condo suited us well; my wife and I slept on the bed and our child used the fold-out sofa bed, with plenty of room for all. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this unit if you’re looking for a comfortable oceanside stay.

Disappointing

Overall, we felt this place was rather shabby and way over priced. After the added VRBO and cleaning fees, the price was 378 a night. There is no elevator, so everything had to be carried up three flights of outdoor steps. The bathroom sink drain was slow, the shower is tiny, the bathroom screen allows tiny gnats through, so there are always bugs in the bathroom. There is no balcony. Magic Sands beach is rocks. We appreciated the beach chairs and towels. For a lower price, this place would be ok.

All Good and Comfy!

The best part about the stay was that the property management is so courteous and replied quickly to all my correspondence. She also was kind to accommodate with an early check in but ended up getting to Kona late. Also, if we needed to extend, she was very helpful on working it out. The Condo is older than many oceanside, but they have a restaurant attached that made it really convenient with a late-night check in...There are lots of nice amenities I had no idea was available in the condo. Presentation was clean and the bed was so comfy. We weren't in the room except at sunset to early morning so being on the ocean the sea must make it hard to keep windows clean. Something is up with the sofa, but we didn't need to use, so no prob. Not sure about the pool. Overall we were grateful for a quiet comfortable stay, Mahalo!

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Emery

Host profile image
Aloha, my name is Sage. I live on the Big Island of Hawaii. What a blessing! We love having a condo that provides so much fun for vacationers. This is such a healing place, a fun place, relaxing, adventurous. We love snorkeling and there is amazing snorkeling all over the Island. When we are really fortunate, we get to swim with the dolphins. The best part is the weather! We are originally from Oregon with the seasons. I have to say I do not miss the snow. I love the tropics. We hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighbor hood because of Magic Sands beach. The second I walked into this condo, I knew people would love it. And they do! There is a trolley to get around for free. A restaurant attached to the building. A park on the other side for quiet times. Down town Kona is 10 minutes away. It is a prime location!

What makes this property unique

The moment you walk in the door and look out over the ocean you will know why this property is so special. The view is spectacular. Also, for those who do not want to get into the waves, we have a swimming pool area next to the beach.
