About this property

Top Floor Oceanfront Studio #311 W/LANAI and A/C


COOL A/C IS AVAILABLE when ocean breezes aren't enough.
Unit # 311 - We have one of the few units in the building with an ACTUAL outdoor patio to enjoy the beautiful ocean view, which is direct ocean front, with famous Magic Sands Beach right next door! And with our COOL A/C, you couldn't ask for
a better place to stay! Magics Beach Grill, the onsite restaurant, is open right downstairs.
Our unit includes a 55" big screen TV with Blu Ray player, Netflix and free WIFI access, stereo system, along with extra bedding and linens. There is a large collection of DVD's and books to enjoy as well. The kitchen is fully stocked with small appliances including microwave, blender, coffeemaker, rice maker and coffee grinder along with glasses, pots, pans, silverware, and various seasonings and spices. The kitchen and bath have granite counters. The bathroom shower has a raised shower head for our taller guests.
We've also added plenty of extra amenities like extra large beach towels, snorkel gear, beach chairs, coolers, picnic blankets, boogie boards and beach umbrellas for your afternoons at the local beaches. We've provided fishing poles and binoculars for whale and fish watching from the lanai. There are two BBQ's on site by the oceanfront pool and a coin-op laundry room downstairs. Free assigned parking spot for one car is also included.
Please note that there is no elevator in the building and we are located on the top floor (third floor), but it's worth the steps for the fantastic views!
We are conveniently located within 2-3 miles of downtown Kailua-Kona and all it's inviting shops and restaurants.
THIS UNIT IS DESIGNED AND SET UP FOR TWO ADULTS.

Our stay was fabulous! The studio was spotless and beautifully decorated with everything we needed to prepare meals in the kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed our morning coffee and sunset happy hour on the lanai, overlooking the ocean with the occasional glimpse of dolphins right in front of us. We look forward to returning!

Jan was very communicative and the condo was exactly as described. She had everything you could need for a week on the Big Island. We took advantage of the mini cooler on day trip, the snorkel gear, the beach towels & chairs next door, and spent every morning on the lanai with our coffee. She also had a fully stocked kitchen to cook anything, including seasonings. The waves were loud and the best sound to fall asleep to every night and wake up to every morning. Location was also great for anything in Kona, or getting around the island. Would absolutely stay here again! Mahalo for an amazing time in Hawaii!

Great views from room. Room had everything we needed to enjoy our days at the beach. Having Magic’s Grill downstairs was wonderful after a day of exploring. Jan is easy to work with. Building is worn down, needs some updating and clean up. Early mornings of construction and street traffic.

Seriously, BOOK THIS!! You WILL NOT be sorry!!!! My husband and I spent 6 nights at this lovely rental and it was amazing. We saw dolphins our first morning! Enjoyed Kona coffee on the balcony every morning and sunsets in the evening. It is walking distance (across the parking lot) to Magic Sands (very popular beach) so if you feel like going to the beach, a short stroll and you’re there! The rental has EVERYTHING you need for a Hawaiian vacation (so go there first and check it out before you buy a bunch of stuff). Location was close to everything and wonderful. Very easy check out! We just loved our stay here!

Perfect location + well appointed condo

We loved our stay at Magic Sands. The location was perfect for our daily trips exploring the island. We loved the view from the lanai while sipping our morning coffee as well as our nightly mai tai and listening to the crashing waves. I highly recommend this property.

Another great trip to the big island

This is the second time we have stayed in this unit, showing a little wear. Super comfortable bed, clean, everything we needed to make breakfast. The complex is getting pretty rundown, and the pool deck is so hot. You can’t even walk on it when you get out of the pool. That was kind of a bummer. Lots of construction going on also. Didn’t bother us , but if you like to sleep in, it could be a problem. Nice to have the restaurant downstairs. Great place for a homebase to travel around the island.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband Glenn, and I have been vacationing on the Hawaiian Islands for the last 30 years. With our children now grown and moving on, we decided to make one of our dreams come true by owning our own little piece of heaven in Kona. I love sharing our place with others who love it here as much as we do! And having return guests makes it even better!
We take great pride in having a clean, comfortable place to enjoy the Island.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of the unique oceanfront location and it's quiet, laid back atmosphere and Aloha spirit. You just can't find a complex any closer to the ocean than this!

What makes this property unique

There is nothing better than true outdoor dining while watching the beautiful sunrises and sunsets from the lanai. Enjoy your morning coffee, and an evening tropical drink to begin and end your day in paradise!
