About this property
Top Floor Cozy Condo Nestled Among Tropical Kailua Kona Treetops
[June 2020: Due to pandemic concerns, we shut down operations April 1 - June 9; the island has "opened up" again, and we are again comfortable hosting Kona guests! Our cleaning person Dianna, best on the big island, is there to make sure our unit is extra clean!] Tastefully designed and newly upgraded reflecting quality and comfort, this top floor cozy condo is nestled among the tropical treetops, with private lanai and peek-a-boo views of the ocean. My wife and I affectionately call our unit #322 the Kona Dove. It is, in our opinion, one of the more desirable units in the Kona Islander Inn complex; ours is a top-floor unit, away from the traffic noise of Alii drive and Kuakini Highway, but close enough to hear soothing surf sounds at night. Our west-and-south facing lanai has an extra-expansive and open view since our unit is also a corner unit. And my wife Therese is an artist and designer- we keep our unit lovely and clean inside!

I loved this place. Just what I was hoping for. The bonus was that from the Lanai we could see the water and the waves crashing from the unusually large swell. Really a lovely place.
This was a wonderful place for a couple to stay in Kona. Central to the downtown area and the apartment was well stocked for cooking needs. The pool and hot tub were an added bonus. We were impressed with the cleanliness, peaceful balcony for morning coffee, and the great communication with the host. We even were able to borrow chairs and a mini cooler for the day for the beach. Would stay here again!
Wonderful stay! The location is perfect, close to the water, dining and shopping. Condo was clean and quiet. Would definitely recommend!

This was a very pleasant place to stay. Nice and clean, laid out well and contained everything we needed for our stay.checkin and out was quick and easy. We had no trouble getting a parking spot, but noticed they are limited. Directions were included on where to park if on property parking was full so that was helpful. It was a great location.
We rented David’s very pleasant studio flat in the Kona Islander Inn for two nights on a brief visit to Big Island to take a volcano tour. The inn and the flat exuded old-world charm and the swimming pool was fun, but, realistically, you need to either hire a car or take a taxi (30 each way) to reach the inn from Kona Airport. The Kona area is quite touristy (in a good way) and the inn is well located for the seafront (with its restaurants and convenience shops). Recommended.
I wish we could have stayed longer! It was very clean and cozy. The perfect place to relax.

We've been staying here exclusively for years as renters; now as new owners, we are excited to share it with others!
