Fantastic location – easy to walk to the many restaurants and shops - less than a mile to the end of Ali’i Drive with all the action in between. Parking can be expensive on the strip, so it’s great just to leave your car at the property. We had covered parking which was safe and free. This property is right next to the Royal Kona Hotel, which has a luau most nights of the week. We could see the action from our balcony, but there was no problem with noise.The building is older like most of the properties in Kona, but the unit was remodeled, super clean, well appointed, with modern appliances. Air-conditioning was definitely a bonus. Two flatscreen televisions and solid Wi-Fi. Wrap around lanai overlooking the ocean - literally nothing but lava and water in front of you. Fantastic sunset view every night with the sound of crashing waves.Small outdoor pool is very nice and not crowded - right on the ocean. For those of you from Wisconsin, you can bring your cooler and drinks right to the pool. Plenty of seats and umbrellas and shade. We saw many sea turtles and tropical fish right from our balcony and the pool deck. For our stay, they had nice beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkeling, gear, boogie boards, and coolers in the unit - all in great shape. On-site staff was friendly and helpful. We really liked this place and thought it was a great value.
