We appreciated having beach chairs, towels, and fins for snorkeling available but were disappointed that the sunscreen left for us was not reef safe (fortunately, we brought our own sunscreen). Condominium was unbearably hot when we arrived, took several hours for window air conditioning units to cool the space. Ceiling fan in the 2nd bedroom did not have ability to control speed. Lanai would have been more comfortable with ceiling fan. Floor was not very clean when we arrived.

The location of this property is wonderful Kahalu’u. Beach is great for snorkeling and seeing turtles. There are lifeguards on duty too. Wonderful to have an assigned parking spot at the condo. We had everything we needed and shopping and restaurants close by.

We loved the area in which this property is located, and were happy to be there. We also appreciated the deck and the small pool and hot tub, as well as all the scuba diving equipment! The kitchen is tiny, but filled with every possible appliance. The space is a bit worn, and could have used a few more towels; but on the whole a good value.

A perfect holiday condo

Excellent location, property managers and owners were fantastic The condo comes with lots of extra perks like snorkeling equipment, beach chairs, coolers... It is clean and well maintained. The patio made the living area larger and because it was partially shaded, it was perfect for everyone in our group.

Perfect spot for us

This two bedroom, two bathroom condo was perfect for us. It was in a very good location that was not in the heart of Kailua's busy section of town; and an easy walk across the street to go snorkeling and scoping out the tide pools. We appreciated the supply of snorkeling gear so we didn't have to rent some. We enjoyed the patio that had foliage to block out the traffic. It was a relaxing spot to watch the birds. There was a nice, open living space to hang out, talk, and eat in. I would rent this unit again when in Kona.

GREAT Condo, Across from SNORKELING BEACH

We had a great experience. The Condo is old, and furniture and furnishings are dated, but it does the job, and the customer service from the property manager is the main reason I give a high review. Prolly an 8/10. When we arrived, it needed sheets and blankets for the sofa pull out bed and we messaged the property manager, and the next day there was a brand new set for us to use. They also have just about everything you need for the beach, so the only thing we bought at Costco was an umbrella. They had a cooler, beach chairs, and pool noodles to use. We also used the washer and dryer and there were products to use there, too. The beach across the street is not great for playing in the sand, but for snorkeling. Hapuna, Mauna Kea are much better, about 50 minutes up north.

Good stay

Pros: Clean unit, extra linens and beach towels provided. Loved the patio. The pool and hot tub were nice, and it was such a short walk to the beach - great for kids to walk to. Cons: The unit directly below us reaked of trash everytime we walked by it (it was no where near the dumpsters though), the microwave doesn't reheat well and needs replaced, and then the master bedroom ceiling fan didn't work because the previous renter took the remote with them (I wish we were told this before check in - maybe they could have given us a different room; I had to call and ask where it was)

Easy first time experience

This was my first time staying in a Vrbo and I found the descriptions and communications from the host to be accurate and easy to follow. The unit was comfortable for my group of 6. My kids enjoyed the pool and I enjoyed the plumeria blooming around the lanai and 2 minute walk to the local beach park. I forgot to warn my group about the quiet hours and my 16 y.o. daughter had an early zoom call with one of her classes where she got a bit loud in her excitement; my sincere apologies to the neighbors.

Location and extras for the beach

The location was great, having all the beach activity equipment, coolers, and chairs made our days at the beach easy and relaxing. Walking across the street to snorkel each morning was fantastic. We definitely used the ceiling fans and the AC the bedrooms it cooled down fairly quickly we when we came back each night. Kitchen is tiny- 1 person at a time only but functional. We were disappointed that the BBQ had not been replaced and that there was nothing in the kitchen beyond salt and pepper. Everything else was well stocked and made for a great vacation. Thank you
