Thanks for nice review! You captured why it is unique property. It is a great place to watch whales/dolphins in winter; that's also when surf is high to watch surfers and boarders. But, surfing is year round; there is an annual pro surf contest at this site, I believe in fall months if you want to watch pros.

We loved that we were walking distance into town, and also that it was a perfect location for the Ironman World Championships.The condo is right on the ocean, so we enjoyed watching the boogey boarders and surfers on most days, as well as beautiful sunsets.The condo was clean, and we appreciated the management contacts throughout. I would definitely stay here again.

A34 Kona Reef

Very clean, fantastic setting and view. Bathroom and bedroom a little on the small side but doable for two people. We would stay here again!
Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 17 Apr 2024
Thank you for your accurate review. I believe in objective and accurate information so prospective guests can make optimal decisions. To me the only disadvantage with A34 is what you noted; namely small bathroom and bedroom. Kona Reef units are small. In remodel, we opened up kitchen and living area by removing a few structural components. I am happy with that. Can't do that with bathroom or bedroom. For the latter, I struggled with Queen vs CalKing bed. Queen would take less room and make room seem larger, but guests per my research prefer a big CalKing, so we went with big bed and a large flat screen TV, even though it makes the room tight. Thanks again for your accurate review.

Fabulous view and location!

Beautiful unobstructed view of the ocean and fun to watch the boogie boarders from the lanai. Very clean and tidy. The owners were super. We were there for the 4th of July and had a fantastic spot to watch the fireworks on the lawn just below. Also conveniently close to Royal Kona Tennis Courts and town. A nice relaxing stay…thanks!
