Had a great time staying here. It was clean, comfortable and close to everything. Was great to walk to the beach or have coffee on the lanai and watch the waves in the morning. The hosts and manager were easy to work with and very responsive. My family and I had a great time. This was a perfect home base for us on our vacation. Highly recommend!

Stayed a month in this comfortably furnished quiet condo. Master suite and 2nd bedroom are at opposite ends. Plenty of beach gear and nice kitchen. Unit and property is well maintained.

Great beach front Condo

We arrived in the afternoon to find a super clean condo with a few treats waiting for us. The access to Ali drive was great so we could take the trolley downtown for a happy hour and see the sunset. The King bed was very comfortable and the AC worked great to keep us cool for sleeping. We love the central location for access to north and south beaches. Overall it's one of the nicer places we have stayed on the big island and we will probably attempt to rent it again when we return.

Aloha Ashlee, We're glad you enjoyed your stay! One of the reasons we bought this condo was what they say, "location, location, location ...". It's conveniently close enough to town to get there by trolley, bike or car, but far enough away that you won't have any noise (just the waves!). Please come again anytime! Mahalo!

Check-in was super easy with a code for the door and all parking spots are close to unit. Extremely clean and well stocked. I did ask for sheets to be out for sleeper sofa and we had to look for those and they forgot to turn the thermostat back down after a few day gap, but given the heat and humidity, the thermostat worked great and they set it down about a minute after I called. Beach gear was great. Don't underestimate snorkeling across the street. Kids had a great surf lesson too. Fabulous central location. Parking in town was expensive, but we went farther south for Shave Ice. Pool was great and kids used every day. Fabulous location!

Great location, close to ammenities.

Great location across from a good snorkeling beach. Easy to access the south end of the island and quick access into downtown Kona. Well appointed kitchen and everything worked well. Close to a grocery store and lots of local farmers markets. The king bed was hard and the twin beds were softer but that can be preference. There are 4 beach chairs, an umbrella and coolers to use. The lanai had a nice patio set and we often enjoyed our meals outside. Parking was free and easy. I would stay here again.

Big Island Vacation

This property was fabulous. The host's had a folder, with so much great information in it. From how to turn on TV, what was expected on check-out, and included great places to visit! We meet the property Manager Britt and she was the absolute best. The kitchen was fully stocked with needed kitchenware. They had everything for beach fun to use including a cooler. It was so clean! Even the grounds were immaculate. Very reasonably priced. We spent 2 weeks on Maui at a Vrbo before coming to the Big Island. We have rented Vrbo's in the past. We would state this was the best Vrbo that was organized, clean, friendly & a great price. If we ever come back to the Big Island this is where we would stay. Thank you so much to hour hosts & manager - Tom & Sherry Pearson

Beach Condo: Good for a Small Family

We enjoyed our time in Tricia and Donato Pompo's Beach Condo. We stayed in the lower unit and appreciated the easy access it afforded our small children. The parking lot alway had spaces. We are thankful for the generous offering of beach equipment and snorkel gear that our family used in the protected tidal pools across the street. The kitchen is well appointed and we cooked many meals with ease. We shopped at the nearby Safeway. We had a quick response to our inquiry with the on-site manager, Britt, when we needed help with a clogged toilet. She got everything back to normal while we were at the beach! Thank you Britt! In closing, I give this beach condo my full recommendation as a comfortable place to launch your Kona vacation.

Perfect location for snorkelers

Great location within quick walking distance of Kahaluu Beach. Nicely appointed condo with everything you'd need or expect, including new appliances. New carpet, paint, and furniture too. Four beach towels, two beach chairs, one big beach umbrella, snorkel gear, boogie boards all in great shape. This particular unit is the last one on the ground floor and is furthest from the beach, but it's still close. I really liked that the door has a PIN pad for entry so that each person in my group could come and go. If the condo management would add a PIN to the pool and beach exit, that would be even better. Two concerns to be aware of but not worth lowering my review score: 1. This condo requires a deposit of $1500. I stayed in two other condos in Hawaii with deposits of $100 or less. 2. The list of posted rules and the timer on the air conditioner are somewhat insulting. The A/C timer is specifically annoying because it cannot be set to run all night. Even though it says it will run for 6 hours, it lasts about half that.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at our condo! It was redecorated a couple of months ago and we put in a new washer/dryer and stove as well as new living room and lanai furniture. There is another option for damage protection which does not require a deposit. Sorry for the misunderstanding. We'll look into to a/c issue. Hope you come stay with us again in the future!
