We have stayed here several times and have always had a wonderful time. Joy is a great host and communicates before during and after out stay to make sure we have everything we need.The condo is located on the poolside of the building. It has a nice indirect view of the ocean. Because it does not get the direct sun, it stays much cooler than units on the ocean side. With two bathrooms, there is no competition when we need to leave for an early morning excursion.The location is great. We can walk to many restaurants, shopping and attractions. We especially like Papa Konas, Taka Chinese food and Andy's Ice Cream stand. Joy has provide everything we needed for a day out; beach towels, beach chairs, sun tan lotion and various beach toys. With a full kitchen and full size refridgerator, we were able to store our leftovers (most restaurants give you large servings) and heat them up the next day. The Wed thru Sun farmers market down the street provides fresh fruit and vegies. We always get a bunch of apple bananas as soon as we can,. The dedicated parking spot is a big plus.We will definitely be back!

My husband, daughter and I had a fantastic stay! We had a great view of the pool as well as a little slice of the ocean. Everything in the Kona area we wanted to do was within walking distance. The kitchen was well stocked as well as the cost closet full of beach items. This place was everything we needed and more. We can not wait to come back!

Very comfortable. Great location.

Not only is this condominium comfortable, but we could tell that thought went into furnishing and organizing the unit. It felt like borrowing a friend's condo; it didn't seem like a vacation rental at all. We would love to return again.

Clean, nicely decorated property...better in person than displayed in the pictures. Loved the "rain" shower head, thought with two bathrooms there would be no waiting, but we both found ourselves preferring the walk in shower!! 😊 Convenient to just about everything. Looking forward to staying there again!

KJ’s Place

We enjoyed staying here and loved the location. Really appreciated the host’s suggestions on the places to visit that were detailed in the green binder. The bed was comfortable the rain shower was great. The beach chairs and umbrella served us well. Thanks for having peroxide so I could address my knee from being tossed around by the ocean and scraping it up on lava rocks. Magic Sands Beach kicked my butt!!! Great memories for our third trip to the Big Island and was grateful to come “home” to KJ’s Place. Mahalo!

Nice place good location

The property is as pictured and in a great location for walking around town to shops and restaurants. Its clean and nicely decorated. The drawbacks were that the key wasn't in the lockbox when we arrived at 3:30 and we waited 45 min. for housekeeper to come down. Also, the air conditioning didn't work after first night. Owner seemed friendly online.
