The ocean front location of this property is excellent!!!! The best!!!! The pool was never crowded and the water was warm. The beds were good and the main bathroom was larger than some we have rented. There were not any bugs or issues we felt were deal breakers.

The views are fantastic. The place is clean and perfect for a family of 5.

This unit is just as described. You can’t get more ocean front than this. Surfers out from dawn to dark, beautiful sunsets and a great location. Check in was easy, unit was clean and well stocked. Dawn and Ian responded promptly with any questions we had. I would highly recommend this unit.

We could not get the AC to work properly. When turned on, we started smelling sewer smell. Therefore, we did not use it. The fans were sufficient to keep us cool enough as long as the doors were open. The lights also flickered a few times, concerning us with safety of wiring. There was also mold on the smaller bathroom on the shower curtain. WE LOVED THE ATMOSPHERE, THE OCEAN, THE LANAI, IT WAS VERY CLEAN, FURNITURE AND BEDS WERE VERY COMFORTABLE. I WOULD STAY THERE AGAIN.

Perfect week. very comfortable beds, 25 feet from edge of ocean. Like most everywhere, the property is not EV friendly, but that, hopefully,will change in the future with all rental properties

Exactly what was advertised!

The property was very nice. Beach was amazing. There was really good snorkeling right in front of condo. Condo was clean and very organized. The owners and property managers were very responsive to any questions. Definitely recommend and would love to stay here again.

Loved this condo! It had everything we needed for the perfect family vacation. It had all the things you would need for a fun beach day. Kitchen is stocked well for a home cooked meal. Spent a lot of time on the patio looking at the amazing views. Beautiful sunsets and watching surfers! We chased waterfalls, hiked to green sands beach, hiked at the volcano and stopped by black sand beach.Thankful for how quiet this property was especially after an active day. This vacation was good for the soul.

We spent four nights, zero issues! We loved that we were right on the ocean. We left the sliders open all nights for some great breezes and wonderful ocean wave sounds.the little beach right next to the condos was perfect for us. A short drive had us in to the town area. I’d definitely stay here again. Fantastic sunsets and evenings on the balcony.

This property was outstanding. Beautiful ocean view . Had my 85 year old mother with us and it was very handicapped accessible for her. Everything we could have needed was available .

Condo was just as advertised. Great view of sunset and surfers.

Cannot say enough good things about this condo & the property! The condo was very clean and had everything we needed from kitchen essentials to bathroom items. The view from the lanai was spectacular and we enjoyed watching the surfers daily and eating many of our meals out there while listening to the waves crash on the rocks. The entire complex was very well kept and cleaned regularly. The location was just a few minutes drive to shops and restaurants in Kona. Dawn was attentive to sending all the details to make our trip successful. Would highly recommend to others traveling to Hawaii!

The pictures really don’t lie-absolutely perfect view of the water. Condo is charming and has everything you need to step into a relaxing vacation. We loved just hanging out here, but it’s also a good location for exploring the island. Owners are known by the locals and highly regarded. Nice they know their place.

We’re a couple and SIL, all senior citizens. The location is great for access to beaches, restaurants, and shops. Private covered parking is a plus. The elevator was a must-have for us. We enjoyed watching sunsets and surfers from the lanai. There’s a nice kitchen but we ate our meals in restaurants. The condo was very clean and comfortable, if a bit dated. No bugs!

We enjoyed our stay, would definitely recommend and would stay here again! Easy check in, very clean and well stocked. Loved the two king beds! I chose to sleep in the full sized pull out to be closer to the ocean waves and it could use an update. Had one small issue (operator error). Dawn provided a quick and very easy solution. Mahalo, Dawn!

Great views. Great for 4 people, though it would sleep more with pull out couch. (Unit has A/C, however to keep the the entire place cool, all interior doors including both bedrooms need to be kept open. )Kitchen was well stocked with basic essentials +, and left over extra's!

It rained on Kona the entire week e were there, but this beautiful location right in the beach was our saving grace! We could sit on our covered patio and watch the surf and surfers and feel we were in the beach. Property has two king beds, one in a separate bedroom and one that is able to be closed off with sliding panels for privacy. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, it was perfect for two couples traveling together. Dawn is wonderful to work with and we would definitely choose this location again.

We had an excellent 3 week stay. The ocean/sunset/surfer views are amazing. The property is as advertised. An older property but well maintained.

We wished there was a binder with info on the property as we’ve experienced previously from VRBO rentals. Other than that the location was perfect. We always stay at Banyan Tree Condos. Love watching the surfers. Thank you hosts for answering our phone call and being helpful.

The property is well-maintained and clean. The view out our wall of sliding glass doors was stunning. We had coffee watching surfers every morning. Condo is close to shopping, restaurants and open air markets. Hosts are very flexible and have a well stocked kitchen and bathrooms with everything we needed to make our stay perfect. Had an outstanding time!

Property was as described in the listing. Gorgeous sunsets and always entertained by surfers.

The condo was clean, well stocked, and we would definitely stay here again. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck and watching the surfers everyday. Only suggestion I have is the towels are at the end of their life/could use updating. :0).

Fantastic deck directly over the pool and ocean. Every morning drinking good Kona coffee while watching the surf and surfers. Excellent location to everything. This place came fully stocked (including plenty of coffee filters, garbage sacks, etc.). Unlike other places that make you bring dish soap etc. We highly recommend this condo and hope to return.

We had a great time at this property. We loved drinking coffee on the balcony and watching the sunset every night. Perfect spot if you love the ocean! Thank you!

It was close to everything and had many extra items to make your stay lovely!

The view was just as described absolutely beautiful! It was an easy and convenient stay with parking, location to town, and the unit has easy access. Dawn and Ian were very accommodating and communication was excellent. The balcony is the entire width of the condo with two sets of sliding glass doors which allows for a total front view. The immediate area is very casual where locals and local surfers hang out, very low key. The small beach next door was perfect with tide pools. We would stay here again.

The view off the front was absolutely stunning and worth every penny. When we were at the condo we spent every moment out there soaking up the beauty and watching the surfers. We loved that there were 2 beach chairs and the insulated bag. It enhanced our trips to the beaches. It was not close enough to walk to town, but just a short drive. I also appreciated the tips sheet and speaking with Dawn. We loved the little convince store across the road to pick up the little things. Overall it was a decent place with a few minor things… there was a surfer smell , maybe it was the water system or the air conditioner, but that was a bit bothersome. The beach umbrella base was missing and couldn’t be fully used and there were only 3 beach towels, the bath towels were thin and the soaps and shampoos were empty.

Unit is as described. Beautiful views of ocean and surfers every day. Would not hesitate to book this again. Just be aware no restaurants in walking distance except for Da Poke takeout and Magic Rocks which was closed. Only suggestion is an hour later check out at 11:00 a.m. rather than 10:00 a.m. would have been appreciated.

We had a great time visiting the Big Island and staying in Dawn & Ian's condo. The condo had everything we could possibly need and the view is to die for! We actually met Dawn the last day in the pool. Communication was great. Location is perfect. Our only complaint was we wish we had better weather for our stay but Dawn has no control over that!! We spent lots of time on the lanai watching the surfers and sunsets - what an incredible location.

We walked, snorkled, and entirely relaxed. Watching the sunsets, waves, and the surfers is enjoyable. Would highly recommend this location and condo to anyone looking to kick back and just chill out.

When it says right on the ocean they weren't kidding! We spent a month here and had a wonderful time. It was a great launching point for us to explore the Big Island. Our breakfast view with the surfers never failed to delight us and evening sunsets were also amazing. The condo itself provide everything we needed and groceries and restaurants are not far away.

This property is located in a great spot, easy distance to town and right next to a small local beach with ample shade and sun, perfect for pitching your chairs. The lanai looks out over the water and is ideally situated for sunsets and watching the surfers, as well as whales and dolphins and the occasional flying fish. The property is quiet and seems to be well managed, and Dawn was highly responsive to questions. Beds are comfy and everything works as it should. The kitchen has the essentials, although I do wish there had been a knife sharpener somewhere (if there was, we couldn't find it), as the knives were not in great condition. Overall, this place is great value. Would definitely recommend.
