My wife and I spent a week here, celebrating her birthday. I booked this as a surprise trip so I had to do all of the planning in secret. This condo was exactly as advertised. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. It’s a perfect space for 2. The beach is literally steps away, just be aware that this a great sitting beach but due to the rocks, it’s hard to snorkel when the tide is out. Magic beach to the south is a better option if you want to snorkel. The walk into town is very quick and easy with lots of great dining options for any time of the day. The are also 2 farmers markets nearby with lots of local produce (try the “apple” bananas). Marni and her team have but together a great space and done a super job equipping it with everything you need for a stress free stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Overall fantastic. Owner was very responsive to any requests we had. Will definitely stay again.

This place was as good as if not better than advertised. Pictures are accurate, everything we needed was provided, cooking utensils, cookware as well as items in the bathroom. Communication was very easy. The entire complex was clean with two covered garages and an open parking lot. The biggest thing for me when looking for a place on the Hawaiian islands is the AC. This place has two split AC's, one in the bedroom and one in the living room. I can't stress how important AC is to me. Because of the high prices of electricity it is requested not to run the AC while not in the condo. I was skeptical about doing that but honored the request. We turned off the AC and spent the entire day on the Hilo side of the island, from about 9am until 7pm and when we returned it was still cold inside. From that moment on I had no problem turning the AC off while we were out exploring the island. We walked from the condo to shop and eat on Ali'i Drive which can save you a lot of money because parking is very expensive. Our view on the lanai was fantastic. We were always in the shade regardless of the time of day. I noticed other places on Ali'i Dr that faced the west had direct sunlight into their places which can be hot and also explained why I hardly saw anyone enjoying their lanai during the day. That was not the case at this place. Always comfortable on the lanai. Btw, the sunset was beautiful from the grounds. When we return to the Big Island this will be the first place we look for.

Marni was the best host you can ask for. Great communication, extremely well provisioned condo, and very organized! We so enjoyed the condo, the area, and the great ocean view and sound of the waves from our lanai.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our recent trip to Kona! A clean and cool condo, a semi-firm yet really comfortable bed, and easy parking in a great (and walkable!) location means we will hopefully stay here again! Downtown Kona is only a 15ish minute walk or less than $10 Uber/lyft ride away and you can get anywhere on the island in under two hours, which made for some great day trips! The host was always super responsive to any questions and we had everything we needed and more (including beach towels, a dishwasher, and beach chairs!). Add me as another very happy client who can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Loved our stay in Kona, host was superbly responsive and helpful, gave us dinner recs, and the property was excellent!!

Excellent condo, walking distance from town, with a beautiful ocean view. There is a very good surf spot immediately in front of the condo complex. The condo, and particularly the kitchen, was very well stocked and all equipment worked, The host even provided a bottle of champagne in recognition of our anniversary trip. We would definitely stay here again when visiting the Big Island.

Beautiful condo! Great location and view. Excellent for sunset view. Bed comfortable and ACs worked great. Highly recommend. I would definitely stay here again!
