Perfect for a quiet stay!
My husband and I honeymooned here in early May 2024. The pictures on the listing are EXACTLY what to expect we were so excited to see the view in person. The building itself is a little dated, but as soon as we got to our room we completely forgot about it. When we first arrived we were nervous about the noise level we would hear from being so close to the street, however the waves themselves were so loud we couldn’t hear anything over them. Kitchen was perfect for our breakfasts and lunches, and having a washer dryer in unit was a blessing. We are so excited to come back someday!

Paradise 🌸🌞🌴
We stayed here our last 2 days of a 12 day trip. It was absolutely amazing! I wish we could’ve stayed longer. The condo was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. As was the couch which is where I slept so I could hear the waves crashing as I fell asleep. We found a little beach area just down the stairs with a picnic table so you could sit and enjoy the waves in the sun. Very close to everything. I would definitely stay here again!!

The property location was fantastic! The view from the balcony is beautiful!
The property was very nice. It was right on the ocean with a view that was exactly like what they picture in the property description. - Fantastic! It did not have air conditioning which was not a problem as there is a great breeze that flowed through the unit. It is on the top floor (4th floor) which was very nice as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. It was easy to get to everything in the Kona area from there.

Beautiful Sunsets
We didn’t spend a lot of time at the condo during the day, but it’s in a great location for doing various day trips. It had everything we needed and the view from the lanai was fantastic. We took advantage of the small farmers market next door on Saturday and Sunday. It was also really nice to have beach chairs and a boogie board to use. We would definitely stay here again in the future!

The view from the lanai was wonderful. The extra amenities were unexpected but helped make beach day a bit better. The bedroom is on the street side and we had to sleep with the bedroom windows closed. But overall a perfect last few days on kona.

Totally Satisfied
Beautiful spacious place, comfortable breezes, fully equipped kitchen, amazing view from the kitchen, dining room, living space and especially the balcony. Very comfy bed and pillows. When the toaster didn't work, Edgar had a new one at our door in about an hour. Wow! There was even snorkeling gear for us to use, and binoculars to get a closer view of the whales. Free bus service available every hour. We were able to store our luggage in security at the front desk until our late flight. The pool and hot tub were also clean and well maintained. A great place to stay. We would definitely recommend, and would love to come again. Thank you.

Five Star Experience
We saw so many whales from the lanai that we lost count. The condo worked perfectly for two people. The bedroom is right next to a busy street so it was noisy. Put on the fan to drown out the traffic for sleep. There are extra binoculars, beach chairs, towels and scuba gear. There is no air conditioning but the ocean breezes kept us comfortable. We intend to stay here again. Aloha!

Big Island
This was a great property. Awesome view. So close to the water you can toss a rock in it. In the early morning sun it was like looking into an aquarium, we could see so many fish. Watched whales each day from the lanai. Had everything needed in the condo: towels, beach chairs, coolers, even snorkel gear. 💕

Better than our hotel stay
This property is beautiful! We are very impressed by the views from the lanai and the size of the place. It is very roomy and accomodating for 2 and we could see whale tails and spouting from the living room and lanai and see fish in the surf. Lots of ammenities here: 4 beach towels, snorkel gear, laundry detergent, sunblock/spray, binoculars, boogie boards, beach chairs, cooler, safe, plenty of shampoo and body wash, coffee and tea supplies. Host provided lots of info before check in and printed in room on local hikes and happy hours, public transportation info, how to use the remotes, and where light switches are located. Very helpful, would stay here again and recommend. The only downside is the room is a bit of a walk from the stairs and even further from the elevator regardless of where you park so if you have someone who can't walk well, you may want a room closer to the elevator.

Great place to see Whales from the lanai
The week we stayed was great. The view is spectacular and we saw whales on 2 different days from the lanai. The lava beach behind the property was enjoyable. There was a bunch of surfers catching waves just behind us. We highly recommend the Shaka Tacoz food truck at Ali'i Gardens Marketplace, it was a great value with great food. It is close to Kahalu’u Beach for snorkeling. Having a cooler, beach towels and beach chairs available was handy. We left a large boogie board for the next renters.There is a reasonable priced fruit stand right next door on the weekends.

View doesn't get any better than this. ***On the ocean***
Loved the view out the glass wall of this 4th floor apartment - it is as "on the ocean" as I think you can get; certainly the closest we've ever been. The place wasn't super fancy or new, but that was fine by us - the property had everything we needed while we were there, and we had a great time. Edgar (the owner) was great with check-in communication, and we never needed him at all while we were on the island. We did run into one day where there were 30+ flies in the apartment (at least, that's how many we swatted), but the remaining days we were basically unbothered. Street noise in the bedroom at night is loud, but we'd read other reviews about that and had no problem at all with earplugs in. Had a great time on the island in this central location. If you're interested in a photo-story of our time, including pics of the views from the apartment and things you can do with this as your home base, feel free to check out adventuretaco.com/trip/the-vacation-adventure-dec-2023/

Perfect Getaway
This was our best experience so far with VRBO. I am delighted to say that this place exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect for us - very central to most of the places we intended to visit. Parking and elevator access was easy - making load-in pretty seamless. From the moment we walked in, we felt extremely comfortable, Sometimes owners put in too much furniture and so much junk on the counters that there is no room for the guest - that was not the case here. It was well stocked without feeling crowded. There was everything you need to have a great time on the island - beach chairs, towels and even and ice chest (just like ours at home.) The balcony overlooks several tide pools and amazing sunsets. We enjoyed our dinners out on the balcony and found ourselves relaxing in the chaise lounges listening to the sounds of the surf. We kept the balcony doors and the windows in the bedroom for lovely cooling breeze. I would highly recommend this place and definitely would come back again.
