Great condo! Very clean, well stocked, beautiful style and decor. The location can't be beat...walking to town or driving around the island; just the perfect home base for your Hawaii vacation. Breakfast on the lanai (what a view), sunsets by the pool, relaxing after a busy day, all wonderful with our stay. Thanks Alex for your attention to detail and for sharing this amazing property. Roy and Karen

This condo is perfect for it's views and location. The condo was very clean and well furnished. Alex is an amazing host, providing excellent information and making sure our rental went smoothly. We feel very lucky we found this place.

We've stayed at D-12 twice now, and it is our condo of choice at Kona Reef. On our first visit, we were impressed with the decor, the location, and the attentiveness of Alex and Michel. The second time was no different. Not all condos are created equal. There are those at the Kona Reef that show no pride of ownership. Alex and Michel have pride of ownership, and it shows....big time! We will be back.

Alex and Michelle, your condo at Kona Reef was wonderful. Absolutely everything we needed was there right down to the snorkel equipment. The complex is being kept up very nicely, they clean the barbecues daily! For my wife and I your place is a 10 plus and filled with aloha spirit. The walkability factor into the village and many restaurants was terrific. We saw so many whales, turtles and dolphins and real close up from the lanai, simply delightful. We have many great memories of this trip and will be returning soon no doubt.

We made our first trip to Kona, Hawaii and had a fabulous time. The condo couldn't have fit our needs any better. The view was first class. The location was superb. The condo was tastefully furnished and was so well-supplied that we felt right at home. It didn't feel like we were in someone else's home and it didn't feel like a bare-bones rental. It was perfect for us and we would gladly stay there again. The extra touches made all the difference. The complex itself provides a beautiful pool, jacuzzi, BBQ area, and parking (which we discovered is quite important). Thank you for such an awesome vacation spot!

Alex and Michele's condo offered everything that we were looking for in our first stay in beautiful Kona, Hawaii. The pictures listed are all accurate and reflect the gorgeous view from the balcony. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to make a meal and then some. Air conditioning, Wi-fi and all advertised appliances are new and in working order. The furniture is tasteful and reflects the laid back Hawaiian attitude. The condo itself is within walking distance of Downtown Kona and is right next to a nice sandy beach. Alex was extremely helpful with a wealth of information regarding the surroundings and his genuine interest in our quality of stay helped make this vacation memorable. We did some extensive searching before choosing this condo and after staying there for 8 days I can honestly say we made the right choice. Mohalo Alex and Michele!

We stayed in D-12 from Aug.4-12. Alex was great in providing information about local restaurants, tours, and shopping. The condo has everything you need even snorkel equipment, beach chairs, beach bags, and cooler. This condo is located within walking distance to most shops, restaurants,and farmer's market. We will recommend this condo to anyone that is going to Kona, Hawaii. Thanks again, Alex for all your help. Melissa & Tim Landrum

My husband and I stayed here a week in early August, and it couldn’t have been any better! Everything we needed was there, beach towels, chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, binoculars, reef safe sunscreen, laundry soap, dishwasher soap, trash bags, etc. I strongly recommend going to the condo before the grocery store, so you’ll know what you need. Most nights we were able to leave the lanai screen doors open and a wonderful Breeze went through the condo. On the few nights it was too hot, the air conditioning was there to cool us off. Alex was a wonderful host, giving us suggestions as to what to do, where to go, etc; he was only a text away. The complex has a beautiful pool and an excellent area to grill (with 4 new gas grills) and eat, overlooking the pool area. Also it has beautiful well-kept grounds, a covered parking garage, and is very quiet. We felt safe the entire time, even walking at night to nearby restaurant/shopping areas. It was fun to see surfers from the nearby park, and so cool to see the sunset while dining on the lanai. We had breakfast with coffee overlooking the beautiful waves crashing on the lava rocks and since my husband likes to cook and grill, we ate dinner there more often than at restaurants. We bought fresh mahi and ono (wahoo) at Costco, and it was wonderful. My husband (the cook who brings a knife sharpener) adds that the kitchen was the most complete and well-appointed of any rental we’ve ever used! We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful place to stay in Kona. Within walking distance to several restaurants andshops. It has a fantastic view. Hosts are very friendly and kept us apprised of check-in, parking, etc. We will be back.

This is a clean, well-cared for, oceanfront property located right downtown. The view is great, and you can fall asleep listening to the ocean.

The Condo was absolutely wonderful and the view was even better. The owner is not only a great host but the condo is nicely done with all the amenities! The pool was amazing and the location was spot on! If your looking for an amazing trip and stay on the Big Island this is the place

Awesome Condo! Alex makes sure you have everything you need. The ocean is about 10 feet away and you have a perfect view of the sunset every night. Restaurants and shops are just a couple of minute walk away. It is the perfect home base for your Big Island Adventures! We have stayed here multiple times. It’s my wife and I’s favorite!

We love this condo! When we visit the Big Island we always check to make sure this condo is available before booking our flights!

We loved the property! It was very clean and well stocked. The host, Alex, was very helpful both before and during our stay. It was an excellent location, within walking distance of restaurants and shopping. I would highly recommend this condo!

The condo is located right on the shoreline and the views are spectacular! If there is any doubt, all the snorkel and whale watching tours are right in front our the condo! We are located within 1/4 or less of restaurants and shops! It’s an easy walk for breakfast, lunch or dinner! We enjoyed exploring the island and doing various tours. Alex had some great recommendations such as Greenwell Coffee tour and The Coffee Shack! The Manta Ray swim was a highlight of our trip! Use Sea Paradise if you want to do it! Very professional crew and brand new 50’ catamaran. Alex and Michele are the best host and communicate a lot to make your visit a plus. We will be back!

Beautiful direct ocean view. Very clean and comfortable with everything you can need!

D12 is a beautiful condo, with an amazing ocean view from the lanai. The entire unit appears to have been renovated/updated sometime within the last few years, and is in excellent condition. The owners (hosts) were some of the best we have ever experienced. Alex went out of his way to accommodate anything we needed, from helpful tips upon our arrival, to providing suggestions on restaurants, and things to do and see on the Big Island. Overall, this condo, and Alex were a huge contribution to us having one of our best vacations ever. I would highly recommend this property, and would definitely stay there again.

We had a lovely time is Kona. This condo is a perfect location and walkable to town, an easy 8-10 minute stroll. Great views and nicely appointed.

This past August we stayed in D-12 for the 8th time! Everything is Five Stars. The location is beautiful with sunsets every night from the lanai. The condo is perfectly appointed, from the kitchen to the beach equipment Alex and Michelle thanks for a perfect vacation!

A great experience with views that can't be beat. It was so nice to be able to walk to downtown Kona. The condo had everything you could need and the pool was very nice. Will be returning!

Exactly as expected! Amazing ocean view from the condo. Alex was outstanding in communication and instruction on arrival and checking out. The unit has all the amenities and we wouldn’t hesitate to come back. It was a wonderful home away from home for our 6 night stay.

Very nice and clean condo. My wife and I enjoyed our stay very much. The ocean view was excellent and entertaining. “Entertaining” because we could watch local surfers anytime the waves were large enough to surf🏄 . Parking was never a issue and was for us abundantly available. The pool area is nice too, making cooling down after sunset, a nice finish to the day. “Kona downtown” is a short stroll away and easily accessible. Alex the host was very communicative and never difficult to reach. The large king bed and pillows made for a solid night rest. Two thumbs up !

This condo is in an excellent location. It's right on the ocean with a very quick and easy walk to downtown. The condo has been updated nicely and is very well kept. It was extremely clean. Alex was fantastic to work with and was very helpful. The condo has great airflow so you can sleep with the windows open and hear the ocean at night. The sunset view from this location can't be beat. I would only stay here when visiting the big island.

Great place to stay. Beautiful view of the ocean - sunsets and dolphins. Location is good - close but not too close to Kona downtown. The unit is comfortable and very well supplied. Alex is great.

This condo is right on the water with gorgeous sunsets and the sound of crashing waves all day long. It has a comfy bed, modern kitchen, & tidy bathroom. One complaint--the AC only lasts for 60 minutes & then you have to restart it. This was only a problem on day 1 when we entered the condo already overheated. The rest of the time, we had windows open & the steady breeze & fans kept things comfortable (and I'm picky about being hot, so honestly, it was 90% ok). Alex the owner is very friendly and communicative. One very small complaint--he was maybe a tad *too* communicative with lots of phone calls to check in. Beach chairs are Tommy Bahama, but the taller kind (easy on the knees) that don't have backpack straps or a built in cooler. Lots of bags/coolers/towels available. We bought our own pool noodles (after 3 stores, found them at Wallmart). Easy check in with keyless entry. TV in the bedroom has HDMI plug in (just unplug the cable box) for streaming from a laptop. Condo had a full week's supply of laundry detergent & D/W soap. We had to buy more TP. Would love a couple more washcloths in the bathroom. Would definitely stay here again. Enjoy your vacation if you book here!

We don't even know where to begin in reviewing this amazing condo. Everything about it was perfect! It is spotlessly clean-something that we really appreciate. The view is outstanding. We loved watching the crashing waves, surfers, and dolphins from the comfortable shaded lanai. Since we have been to Kona many times, we opted not to rent a car. The location of this condo was perfect-tons of fabulous restaurants and happy hours within a short walking distance. We had our groceries delivered from the brand new Safeway. It was really easy and worked out perfectly. Alex, the owner is absolutely fantastic to work with-friendly, helpful, great communication, and lots of local tips! Each day we stayed at the condo we loved it just a little bit more! We've already booked it again for next year.

This condo faces the ocean which is meer feet away. We stay in Kona often and this view is the best we have ever had. The location is perfect snd the accommodations lacked nothing. We would give This stay a 10/10. Thank you so much for everything

This ocean front condo was perfect! It was steps from the black rocks and ocean. The waves could be heard crashing all the way to the bedroom (great sound to fall asleep to!) and the ocean breeze was so constant that we didn’t even need to turn on the AC. Our favorite area was the lanai, where we had the perfect spot for sunsets. It is just a short walk to Ali’i Drive where there is an abundance of restaurants and shops. The hosts were super friendly, communicated with us from initial booking and offered recommendations for everything we wanted to see and do while on the big island. If we ever have the opportunity to visit again, I hope we can arrange to stay here! Mahalo

-When we arrived the place was immaculate and even better than the pics on the listing. Not a piece of sand, hair or dust to be found. NO smelly cleaning products were used! Thank You! Huge peninsula in the kitchen, perfect dining table and big coffee table. Soft-close drawers & cabinets. We stayed for 10 days and found everything we needed. Keys, rules & info readily available. -Keyless entry and backup lockbox key were great/easy. Screen door was so nice for the day and night breezes. We used the hat rack, which was super instead of having a collection of visors, ball caps and sunhats strewn about. -Washer/dryer worked great. (NOTE: There are reusable shopping bags up in the closet - grab them before you go shopping.) Also - broom, dustpan & cleaning stuff in the closet. Used the large, soft cooler with Blue Ice packs for our beach picnics. -Used the beach chairs and umbrella the whole time. We were glad they were regular-height beach chairs and not the low sand chairs, but you can rent those down the street if you like them, better. -Three luggage racks in the bedroom! Wooden and plastic hangers - for strappy sundresses. There is an old-school collapsible drying rack in the closet. We put it on the balcony and used it all week. Lamp on each side of the bed, ceiling fan and floor-fan (Dyson cooling). 6-drawer dresser and ceramic tray near the TV for jewelry. Mirrored closet doors, which is nice. -Clean towels & bathmat. Rainhead shower and controls at entry (no getting wet while turning on). Soft-close toilet seat and lid! Enough room on the counter for both our toiletries. -Unit location is great. Second floor (we felt comfortable leaving the slider open and the lanai screen closed at night). Very few people walk past the unit as pool access is below. You cannot hear any pool noise or the pool gate - those poor units by the gate!! Even the unit/lanai is between the palms... not even a tree in the way of the VIEW. -The Lanai - unreal. Loud, crashing waves, sunsets, spinner dolphins cruising by... so perfect. Outdoor table, chairs and lounge are great. Only the two beach chairs and umbrella were outside (our friends' rental unit had so much crap piled on their lanai most of the space was unusable). We put the umbrella & chairs in the rental car all week. Out of room to type more...just book it! Thanks Alex & Michele!

Alex is an amazing host. He is very communicative and has a wealth of knowledge about the Big island. He was so helpful during our trip with lots of recommendations. You couldn’t ask for a better location on the Big Island if you want to just walk into town. There’s so much to do on this island we will definitely come back. The condo was well stocked with all kinds of pots and pans and anything a person would need to cook a full meal. They also have snorkel gear, beach towels, beach chairs and even an ice chest. This is definitely been a five-star experience.

The condo was perfect. Alex’s communication was great from the very start. He made sure everything was ready and easy to access. Parking our rental was easy and when we didn’t want to drive the local restaurants and shopping was about a 10 minute walk away. We loved listening to the ocean because it was literally about 15 feet away. Our first morning dolphins swam by. Great view of sunsets too! Neighbors were quiet. I can’t say enough good things about the condo. If fact the next time we visit the Big Island we are going to make sure it’s available again!

Five stars are not enough for rating D-12! We spent the first 2 weeks of February in this beautiful condo and had a wonderful time. The condo has been fully remodeled and is beautifully decorated. We cook in frequently and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. We were comfortable from the very start. Alex and Michelle are perfect hosts and very attentive to their guests' needs. The location can't be beat for walking into the village which we enjoy on a daily basis. We highly recommend booking this lovely condo for a stay in Kona.
