About this property

Kona Reef F13 - Nicely Renovated - Ocean View - Free WiFi, 3 minute walk to town

You have just found your vacation spot in Paradise! Sit back and enjoy the spectacular, crystal blue and balmy Pacific Ocean.

This one bedroom, one bath, Ocean View condominium is on the second floor of the F building with fabulous ocean/sunset views. It is wheelchair accessible; there is an elevator nearby.

This resort is a mere 30 feet from crystal-clear tide pools where turtles actually frolic in the waves, and about 100 feet to Honl Beach: a picturesque white-sand beach cove right next to the condominium.

This means you have a front-row seat for seasonal whale watching or troupes of spinner dolphins that play year-round in the water right in front of your condo. And facing due west, you’ll enjoy spectacular sunsets almost every evening from the pool and BBQ are while you dine by the sea, or on your private lanai.

Also positioned right next to the shoreline, the Resort’s recently renovated salt water pool and Jacuzzi is just a few steps away from the unit itself; as well as the four immaculately-maintained gas barbecues in the dining cabana adjacent to the pool.

Complete convenience, Hawaiian style!

The Kona Reef is walking distance to the charming old fishing village of Kona, which includes the local market, quaint stores & shops, historical sites, an open air bazaar selling fresh foods and local crafts, and many restaurants, from the fine to the funky and everything in between.

Investigate further to find an excellent selection of top-quality, licensed vendors offering romantic cruises, glass-bottom boat tours, sailing, scuba dives, and of course, the deep sea fishing for which Kona is world famous (Kona is the marlin capital of the Pacific). Or if you like to check out the lay of the land, horseback riding, volcano tours, helicopter rides or coffee tours – another famous part of Kona.

This unit is absolutely perfect for couples seeking to vacation in comfort, luxury and bliss. (And for those who don’t vacation in complete serenity, a queen-sized sofa bed is available for kids of all ages).

Besides a full kitchen, there’s an in-unit washer and dryer, A/C, iron/ironing board and hair dryer.

Quiet paradise

This location can't be beat! An easy walk to historic down, a quiet beach right next door, and an easy drive to other beaches! The place was clean with a great view. We had breakfast on the lanai every morning to the sound of crashing waves and birds. This was the perfect size for myself, my mother, and my ten year old daughter. We would love to return! Aloha!

Beautiful ocean view but set back far enough to be away from the noise of the pool and barbecue area. Sunsets from the pool deck, or in front of it were a nightly treat. We would stay here again.

Beautiful

This property was amazing with a beautiful view of the ocean and sunset every night. The condo was clean, comfy, and had everything we could ask for. The pool and hot tub were the perfect ending to each day. This was one of the best stays I’ve had with VRBO.

Review of F13

We enjoyed our stay. The room was as described. We found the view from the balcony a little better than the picture shows. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and having breakfast. Easy walk into old Kona Town. We would stay there again

I can’t wait to come back!!!

I love staying at Kona Reef. The property is exceptionally clean. I enjoy how close it is to town. The views from the condo are exceptional. Thoroughly enjoy seeing sunsets from the property and hearing the conch shells blow as the sun goes down into the ocean. I cannot say enough about this property. I highly recommend. I and Property Management was always available and easy to reach.

Great Location

This was a nice place to stay. It was very clean and had beach toys for guest use. I did need to contact the owner about wifi not working. He was very quick to respond and Jim helped immediately to get us the correct account. I do recommend renting a car if you stay here. There are many beaches you will want to visit that are not in walking distance. I would stay here again.
