We would absolutely stay here again.

Aloha Misty, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for highlighting what you enjoyed about your stay and the oceanfront location. We’re glad you had a great Kona experience. One of the number one comments we get from guest is how much the love the ocean cross breeze and the ability to fall asleep to the sounds of the gentle waves breaking. Its my favorite too. That and seeing the whales and dolphins will sipping your morning coffee on the balcony. We would like to gently clarify a couple of points for future guests. The balcony is not shared—each unit has its own private balcony. While the neighboring balconies are nearby, they are offset and separated by a decorative concrete wall designed to provide privacy. Additionally, the property has one pool. The second pool visible from the balcony belongs to the neighboring complex and is not part of our property or available for guest use. We truly appreciate your stay and kind words, and we’re happy to hear you would consider staying with us again. Mahalo!

Aloha Scott, We are so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay at our condo in Kailua Kona. Everyone seems to love spending time on the lanai, whether it be enjoying their morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. Always great to watch the Dolphins and during whale season we often get a little show from the humpback whales. We look forward to hosting you again in the near future. Mahalo!
