Awesome oceanfront condo. The view is amazing! We had to force ourselves to leave the condo. All we wanted to do is sit there on the lanai and watch the waves. It’s within walking distance of downtown and a 20min drive from the airport. Can’t speak highly enough about the location and the view. Alex the owner was extremely helpful too! Great experience all around.
Alex and Michelle are fantastic hosts. Their communication before our visit was so helpful! Their condo has been beautifully updated and everything we could have possibly needed was provided. We loved relaxing on their lanai and watching the surfers and boogie boarders. The views and sunsets were stunning. The location is perfect. We walked to dinner every evening. We also enjoyed the pool and bbq area. We loved their condo so much that we have booked another stay in their gorgeous home!
We had an amazing time staying at this VRBO on the Big Island. The location couldn’t have been better—literally steps from the ocean, with stunning views and the sound of the waves creating the perfect backdrop for a relaxing vacation.The home was exactly as described, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a great stay. What really stood out, though, was the host. They were incredibly helpful and responsive, checking in to make sure everything was going smoothly and offering local tips throughout our trip.Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a peaceful, oceanfront getaway with a great host. We would absolutely stay here again!
The condo we rented in Kona was absolutely beautiful. The location was stunning! Communication with Alex went above and beyond. His hospitality was phenomenal. He recommended many things to do in the local area, which was very helpful. His condo is stocked with everything you would need for a nice day. The resort itself is in a nice location with easy walking to shops, restaurants, and everything you would need. I highly recommend this kind of accommodation in Hawaii! It was fantastic.
This is an ideal place to stay. The property, Kona Reef Resort condominium, is perfectly located as it is close to many shopping centers on one side but also evenly positioned to visit beaches to the north or to the south from it. The view from the room is gorgeous as you are looking at waves right in front of your eyes. Condo is very clean and convenient. Alex, the property owner, is very thorough in explaining everything that is very helpful especially for people who come there for the first time. The entire process of renting was very smooth and easy. Special thanks to Alex for directly communicating with us and setting up everything needed for arrival way in advance and not within 3 days before the rental period. We will return to the same place next year - this is our decision that says all one need to know.
We enjoyed everything about this condo. It is very comfortable, well equipped and nicely updated. We like the unit’s walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The owner is very responsive and makes check-in very easy. We highly recommend this condo.
This condo was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our week long stay. Alex is a very attentive owner who goes beyond the usual to make sure his guests feel welcome and appreciated. We had one small problem when we arrived but Alex made sure it was quickly remedied. Can’t think of a better place to stay. Thanks Alex.
We enjoyed our stay at the condo. It was clean and well equipped. Great location. Communications with the owner was excellent. We would highly recommend this condo.
The comfortable and immaculate waterfront unit is recently and beautifully updated. Proprietor Alex --- eho is always available by phone or text -- has made certain it contains just about anything you might need for your stay, the beach, and snorkeling. The Kona Reef complex is meat, clean and has a wonderful oceanfront swimming pool and grassy frontage. Ideal location, great kitchen, cozy king bed with plenty of closet space. You can't askbfor better. We'll be back.
The Condo was absolutely wonderful and the view was even better. The owner is not only a great host but the condo is nicely done with all the amenities! The pool was amazing and the location was spot on! If your looking for an amazing trip and stay on the Big Island this is the place

This condo is perfect for it's views and location. The condo was very clean and well furnished. Alex is an amazing host, providing excellent information and making sure our rental went smoothly. We feel very lucky we found this place.
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay! The views and the sounds of the ocean were relaxing and the location was highly desirable. The sunsets every evening were beautiful.
Communication with the host was excellent! Alex was always willing to help and offer suggestions and advice.
The condo was beautiful and had everything we needed.
We enjoyed celebrating part of our 25th anniversary trip here.
We hope to come back soon and will plan to stay here again when we do.
Thank you!

Enjoyable stay
We spent two weeks at the condo and had a wonderful time. The condo was well furnished and very clean. We liked the fact that it included snorkeling gear, beach chairs and other little items that you use while there including a good number of books. The condo is in a great location and you can see and hear the ocean at all times. It's sunsets were wonderful. Highly recommend!

Awesome Condo! Alex makes sure you have everything you need. The ocean is about 10 feet away and you have a perfect view of the sunset every night. Restaurants and shops are just a couple of minute walk away. It is the perfect home base for your Big Island Adventures! We have stayed here multiple times. It’s my wife and I’s favorite!

Awesome!
This rental was amazing. It was clean, we'll maintained, has an awesome view, and is super close to downtown kona and tons of restaurants. It was also very well stocked, snorkel gear, beach chairs, kitchen supplies, virtually everthing we needed. Alex was extremely helpful and provided a wealth of information about activities, directions, restaurants. We look forward to returning in the future.
Great condo! Very clean, well stocked, beautiful style and decor. The location can't be beat...walking to town or driving around the island; just the perfect home base for your Hawaii vacation. Breakfast on the lanai (what a view), sunsets by the pool, relaxing after a busy day, all wonderful with our stay. Thanks Alex for your attention to detail and for sharing this amazing property.

We have rented vacation rentals at the Kona Reef many times before, but this was the best experience we have encountered. The owner of the condo. Alex Douglas was very helpful in making our stay a pleasurable experience. Whenever we had a question we were able to contact him imediately for an answer. He was gracious and always had the answers we needed. We would definitely rent the condo should we make another vacation trip to Kona. Charles and Nancy Pew

Excellent!
This was my second stay in the Duncan property. That's my first comment, I wanted to come back! As hard as it was to top my prior experience, they did. They had updated and improved the kitchen and bathroom, plus the sliding glass door to the lanai. As before, every interaction with them was prompt and professional. This recent visit there, won't be my last.

Tropical Breezes
We have stayed in this Kona Reef unit several times. We always return to it because it is clean, comfortable, well equipped and has lots of extras such as beach chairs and snorkel gear. There is an air conditioner but we never feel a need for it. We just open the door, lock the security screen and let the gentle tropical breezes flow through the unit. Michelle and Alex are great owners and very responsive to any needs.
D12 is a beautiful condo, with an amazing ocean view from the lanai. The entire unit appears to have been renovated/updated sometime within the last few years, and is in excellent condition. The owners (hosts) were some of the best we have ever experienced. Alex went out of his way to accommodate anything we needed, from helpful tips upon our arrival, to providing suggestions on restaurants, and things to do and see on the Big Island. Overall, this condo, and Alex were a huge contribution to us having one of our best vacations ever. I would highly recommend this property, and would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful vacation condo!!
This condo is great! It's right on the water. Beautiful sunsets. Sound of waves crashing on the beach. Otherwise it's quiet. Location is great. It's walking distance to the restaurants and shops along Alii Drive, plus it's a good launching spot for all of your island activities. There is a small beach right next door. Clean, updated, well-equipped kitchen and bath. Before and during the stay, had quick conversations with the owner. He is friendly and very helpful with suggestions of activities and places to eat. If our travels take us back to Kona, we'll be staying there again. Thanks
