Inviting oceanfront, one bedroom, one bathroom condo, Kona Isle #E3, In Kailua-Kona.

Kona Isle is a great place to stay for those wanting a quiet and peaceful vacation. This is a well-equipped ground floor unit. Clean as a whistle, well-appointed. Blissfully quiet most of the time though the bedroom window faces the sidewalk. Our only complaint s that this E building is next to the public pool which gets noisy on the weekends when locals take over the pool and children spill onto the grass in front of the unit. On-site manager is excellent and keeps Kona Iske in top-notch condition.

Beautiful place for our honeymoon. Beds were comfy (sometimes we slept on the Murphy bed so we could fall asleep and wake up to the ocean view. Everything was perfect.

This condo is ideally situated on the first floor looking directly out to an expansive ocean view. The ocean was literally steps from our lanai where we found ourselves having coffee in the morning to barbequeing dinner every night. We took so many sunset pictures through the palms in the sunning area with the sun setting in the western blue we don't dare try to share these for fear of boring friends to tears. But we did enjoy this evening ritual.

The condo itself was very comfortable with updated finishes and a thorough inventory of modern fixtures and newish furniture. The living room has a Murphy bed which was a big improvement over the usual pullout sofa. The Tradewinds cooled the place nicely both day and night. The temperature each day was perfect without the high winds we encountered at resorts north of Kona. The beach is not a swimming sandy/swimming beach which is the case for most of this island, however the proximity and views more than made up for this.

After trying one or two outings to snorkeling and golf, we found little reason to leave and consequently simply stayed and enjoyed the understated qualities of this wonderful little place. Certainly it's convenient to Kona etc but it's the convenience to the ocean we found most compelling.

We didn't find any of the "negatives" in a previous review and would highly recommend this condo for a very relaxing vacation. The staff was very responsive, the place is described accurately and its in a premium and convenient location.

I stayed at this property for a month. The kitchen was fully stocked, the queen sized bed was comfortable, and it had all the amenities. But the best part of this unit is its location. I spent most of my time on the lanai which faces west for gorgeous, unobstructed views of the ocean and beautiful sunsets. There is a comfortable queen Murphy bed for guests. There is no air conditioner but there is a sun shade for the afternoon sun which blocks most of the sun without obscuring the view and I was very comfortable. I hope to stay here again!

The advertisement was good with nice photos. When we got the place, the tempture was almost 90. I asked the manage company , then they said it was no a/c in the unit. We have to rent a portable A/C which was only down the tempture to 78. The cockroaches were big. The shower was so old and we were worried the door would fall on you. We never stay there again.
