Private Hawaiian OceanView Condo

NiliaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Enjoyed our stay! The unit was clean, well furnished, and several fresh flowers were placed throughout. The host left a nice card and a bowl fresh fruit. Enjoyed eating breakfast on the private balcony overlooking the coast. The host provided concise instructions about location and how to check in. Thanks for a great stay.

Kona Reef D36, Direct Oceanfront! Top Floor! A/C

MerrieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We immediately felt right at home and welcomed by Regina and Scott. From the well organized binder of information to every amenity one might need, this is THE place to spend a week. When not running out to the sites on the Big Island, this property will meet all your needs. The room was quiet and had easy access. We could easily walk to town or have dinner on our private lanai while watching the sunset. When the staff blows the conch shells at sunset, all will be right in your world.

Ocean view with central location tropical paradise

LoriRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The condo was as advertised-lots of beach things to use (chairs, umbrella, towels, sand toys), great kitchen with plenty of items for food prep, washer and dryer along with laundry pods available. Wi-fi worked very well to hook up multiple devices, and there were 2 televisions available as well. There was a pool, but it was across the street and did not always get full sun due to the surrounding buildings blocking the light. Overall it was a very pleasant stay!

Alii Villas: 2br, 2ba oceanfront condo

ReneeRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We chose Chris's place for the gorgeous view and nearness to the ocean. We were not disaeppointed; we spent all the time we were there, except for sleeping and showering, on the lanai, looking out on the ocean. We fell easily asleep to the sound of the waves. The sea breeze and the fans were sufficient to cool the apartment. When it was time for us to leave for the airport, we packed our car and gave ourselves some extra time to just sit on the lanai one last time, loving the view. I don't think I will ever forget it. We were impressed by the well-stocked kitchen and most appreciative. Beyond salt, pepper, and evo, there were spices and condiments, rice (and a rice cooker!) and soy sauce, and even some cocktail makings. The pots and pans and knives were excellent. It was no struggle at all to prepare meals and clean up with the help of a full-size dishwasher. An initial stop at a 24-hr safeway and one more trip were all we needed, plus a trip to an amazing fishmonger.

Beautiful Ocean Views, Air Conditioning, Elevator

ReneeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed six nights at this condo. We love Kona and this location was perfect for everything we wanted to do - shopping and eating on Ali’i Drive and easy parking/in & out for other activities. The view is breathtaking and the sound of the waves is constant. I was very impressed with the cleanliness and functionality of Betsy’s place. We would love to stay again on our next trip!

Oceanfront with AC @ Sea Village

JasonRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Awesome place - right along the ocean. You could hear waves crashing from the lanai. Fabulous place - better than any of the hotels in Kona. Parking was easy, everything was clean, plenty of space for our family of four. As a plus, Green Flash coffee is right next door and serves a great breakfast.

Ocean Front Condo

MaryRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Staying at Kona Magic Sands is just amazing! Abra’s unit is one of the best! Very clean and has everything we needed. We love have a unit with a lanai and this one did not disappoint. We love being able to just walk to the beach next door. Abra provided everything we needed to enjoy our time on the Big Island. I would definitely stay here again!

Luxury Oceanside Stay!

WendyRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Beautiful condo with everything you need to enjoy your vacation. I would say however if you have little ones you need to know there are stairs in the unit, I had my 3 year old with me but she did well. I did feel like I had to keep her quiet most of the time as the property itself is very quiet, I don't think I seen any families with small children there. The condo itself was great, and the view was gorgeous.

Makana Kai Hale: Oceanfront House on Famous Ali'i

TerryRating, 5 stars13 months ago
Fantastic location. Kitchen was fully stocked. Sunset views were amazing. Master bed room was quite a bit more spacious than the other two rooms. Don’t expect any privacy with the other two rooms since it was only divided by a thin sliding door. Note for light sleepers, loud car noises throughout the night. The street is very busy, take care when entering and leaving the driveway.

Beautiful Home With Private Pool on Kealakekua Bay

NeilRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The Pagoda House is a destination in itself! We explored the island from there, but also spent time just hanging out in the garden and pool. GORGEOUS! It was well appointed for our extended family gathering.

Oceanfront Luxury: 3BR/3BA with Stunning Views

RogerRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was a great place to stay on the big island. The property was fantastic. I would go again. The beach shown on line is not on the property or near the property but there is a small area on magic sand beach to wade into about 1000’ away that is a public beach. You need to drive 15 miles north to find a nice beach.

Oceanfront Home with all taxes included!

JulieRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We had a wonderful time staying at Daniel and Mindy's place. It was well laid out and he was very clear in his communications with us and gave us great tips on places to visit. If you want a clean place with lots of quiet, super starry nights and the sound of the ocean pounding the coast, this is the place to be. It was conveniently located for the things we planned to do. Make sure to go to Two Step for snorkeling. It was fantastic. We would definitely stay here again next time we come to the Big Island.,

Oceanfront living - Floor to Ceiling wall of glass

Brian P.Rating, 5 stars2 months ago
...to plagiarize a comment I saw stated in another review: stop looking and book this place! This is the one! A+++ If you have found this option based on the criteria you think you need, there is likely no better place. The location is ideal. The view of the ocean & pool is incredible--the mesmerizing surf and scenery cannot be matched. A special note: This home provides three of the most comfortable beds that might exist within the Hawaiian Islands. Also--the front foyer is chock full of everything you need for beach fun... EVERYTHING...which was so helpful and reduced expense significantly. The efforts made by the host are very notable and appreciated. (I dig air conditioning--this place has it and it works wonderfully.) We hope to return to the Big Island and if we do this will be the first place we consider to stay again. This condo is close enough to anything and far enough away from everything--it will suit anyone...and really is a perfect vacation home. Mahalo!🤙😎

Oceanfront Condo in Kailua-Kona with AC

JoannaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is our third time to the island and you can’t beat the beautiful views of this amazing location! The condo is exactly as pictured and very well kept. The beds are extremely comfortable and the constant sound of the waves was exactly the relaxation we needed! Chad responded quickly to the couple of electrical issues we had (fixed quickly and no big deal) and was very kind and helpful. The best taco truck in the world is located right next door so definitely check it out and try the Birria tacos. Highly recommend this as a place to stay in Kona

Oceanfront Condo/Hawaiian Style. 1Bd, w/AC & Wifi

BaryRating, 5 stars2 days ago
The attention to detail in this updated condo is apparent. It is appointed with guests in mind--USB charging stations, water play equipment, well stocked kitchen, cooler, containers and ice for picnics... The waterfront location was great even though this isn't an ocean-facing unit, it is in a location that other occupants aren't walking by the front door, which is nice. Although we didn't use the pool, it was a nice little feature and appeared very well-maintained. We used the AC both for cooling the bedroom and to blur the traffic noise from the busy street below. It did the trick for both!

2 Bedroom Penthouse Condo With Ocean View And Pool

JenniferRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We really enjoyed the condo and the views were out of this world. The building was quiet, we never heard neighbors, and the building was upkept. We stayed for 8 days, frequently hauling loads of either groceries or "stuff" and were thankful that there was an elevator to assist in the frequent trips to the car. The car parking space is located beneath the building in the shade, which was very nice to not have to get into a hot car each day. The condo was very clean and there were lots of little extras provided. There were lots of options for borrowing snorkeling masks and goggles, swim fins and even a beach umbrella. We packed lunches every day and we were thankful for the cooler options allowing us to pack what we needed to keep cool. Listening to the waves at night outside the master bedroom was very peaceful. We would wake up early and watch the surfers out each morning in front of the condo. Very relaxing trip. Our host was very responsive to questions and we would go back!

GeorgeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
What a great find!!! Marco’s condo is everything as advertised & more! Beautiful view, quiet, clean, great new appliances. Location is easily walkable to all of Ali’i Drive. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning, watching the paddlers, parasailers, and surfers. Complex has a fantastic pool & hot tub that are immaculately maintained. We miss it already!
