Great condo in a great location!

This condo unit (341 in Kona Islander Inn) was super cute, with a decent kitchenette (no stove), plenty of dishes and kitchen supplies, clean sheets and towels. It's right in the heart of Kona. It's an absolutely great location!! There's about 50 restaurants within willing distance and lots of little shops.

We had such a great stay, the property was in the ideal place to walk to anything you’d want to eat drink in Kailua village. Parking on site was limited after sunset, but you’re able to park for free anytime on the side streets and highway. We’d stay here again and recommend to any of our friends.

Property was great! My only complaint is that there was not an elevator. So, I had 4 flights of stairs up and down anytime I went anywhere. This was difficult.

This property is located right in downtown Kona. Walk out the property gate and you are on Alii drive walking distance to so many great restaurants and shopping. It is a beautiful garden setting. We stayed on the third floor and there is no elevator but we were fine with that. Parking can be tough but we did find a spot each night.

Easy Going in Kona

Perfect location to catch Ironman inspired swims, view the sunset, wine and dine and go to the market. Responsive management to questions and when A/C was leaking. Nice starter packs on all amenities, water filter and ice maker, fun bicycle to go down Ali'i Drive (though I think I'd been the only one who used it due to rust, tires needing air). Respectful neighbors. Would rent again.

It was centrally located which was good. Close to the beach. Room 341 needs some comfortable dining chairs. Although there was no Stove,we managed to cook with the appliances we had. Broken skille,was replaced with another one the next day. Thank you all in all it was ok.
