My stay here was absolutely wonderful. The sunset views were breathtaking, and falling asleep to the sound of gentle waves each night was pure bliss. The unit was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. Communication with the host was seamless; clear, concise, and responsive. The property itself is stunning, with beautifully landscaped grounds and a serene pool area that I often had entirely to myself. The location was ideal - just minutes from a grocery store, great local spots, and countless gorgeous beaches.I would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for sharing such a special place!
Excellent location to beaches, stores & our excursions. The lanai was perfect, we sat outside every morning and had breakfast and enjoyed the view. The property description was great and the beds were very comfy. Having access to a in house washer and dryer was a huge plus as well. Bonus points for having some chairs, a cooler, body boards and snorkeling gear to use. The portable ac upstairs kept the master bedroom nice and cool, the bedroom with the twin beds was a little stuffy during the day, but we were only getting ready here so it was tolerable! My daughter was very comfortable at night with the fan they had here and the small portable clip fan she brought. The window ac unit downstairs worked great as well. Rocco was very kind and communicated with us with check in instructions and then made sure all was well the next day. Very appreciative of that. Ample cookware and utensils. They do provide a few essentials (trash bags, hand soap, dish detergent) to get your stay started, which is very helpful as well. Iâd definitely stay here again and would recommend this townhouse to friends and family. 10/10
This location is outstanding for being next to the water. With a few dollars invested, the building could be a much better place. For example a new bed instead of old rickety twin beds. AC upstairs is needed too. The owner was very responsive to texts and should be commended for that.
For us this was the perfect rental. It was clean, spacious and located just right. The lanai was so nice to spend mornings eating breakfast, drink coffee, watching the waves, and just as nice to watch the sundown each evening. Rocco and Rita were both very attentive to our needs. We are already planning our next trip.
These are not luxurious properties, but they're not supposed to be. This condo is smack oceanside so you watch the sunset from your lanai. Pool and community facilities are great, and the residents graciously included us in their community potluck on Christmas Day. Our kids spent a lot of time on the tennis/oickleball court. Kahalu'u snorkleing beach is a 10-15 walk which means you don't pay and fight for parking.Great place for a family vacation.
We had amazing amazing 5 days at this property. Great location, beautiful community, easy access and parking. House is in good-great condition with fewer flows like upstairs bedrooms do not have a/c units and our first night was quite hot to sleep even it was mid December. However, from the second day weather got better and cool breeze was coming in but we need to keep our bedroom door open. Another issue must be fixed that upstairs bathroom shower door is not closing and due to this water splashes was going out on the bathroom met and on the floor. And one last thing the kitchen window do not have screen and that allows bugs to get in easily.
Other than these issues my family and I had amazing time sitting outside watching beautiful sunsets and watching crashing waves. It was very relaxing vacation and we definitely coming back when we visit beautiful and magical Big Island of Hawaii.
Well usually I have a difficult time sleeping in hotels , but we all had the best sleep ever, especially when you are listening to the sounds of the ocean and the fresh air breeze!
I really wanted to love this place. We were so excited driving up and walking in. This place could easily be 5-stars for the view alone if the owner would put some darn AC upstairs.
For what we paid per night, no AC upstairs (where both bedrooms are) is ridiculous. We were there in late Oct/ early Nov and when we arrived, outside was cooler than upstairs. A portable AC unit would have been great.
This was also one of the least clean rentals weâve stayed in. The front load clothes washer was very moldy and stank very badly. Yuck.
Pros:
- The view - sunsets were amazing.
- The proximity to the pool and grills. The pool was great.
- We saw rays and turtles off the back porch.
- The beach amenities were great - update the listing to include these.
Cons:
- So freaking hot. You can listen to the waves crashing all night because youâre so hot that youâre awake all night, since thereâs no AC upstairs. It sounds romantic to listen to the waves crash all night until you are up all night, basking in your own sweat and not sleeping while you are tormented by the sounds of crashing waves reminding you that you canât sleep and that you are sweating. Then you need to pee.
- No ice maker or ice trays. See above. The owner does not want you to find reprieve.
- No deadbolt on the front door or secondary means to lock the door - didnât feel very safe.
- Moldy washer.
Everything was great! The only thing we didnât like was how hot the upstairs was. Both bedrooms are upstairs and the temperature was very uncomfortable. We ended up buying another fan because it was so hot! Even with both fans and the ceiling fans going it was still really hot. Other than that it was a great stay!
This condo had a direct views of the water where you could sit and listen to the waves crash against the rocks with your morning coffee. Location is great and condo was comfortable and clean. If you are looking for a great reasonably priced place to stay right on the water this is it
Extremely beautiful view. Nice place! We enjoyed our stay, only downfall was it had to be boarded up because of the tide coming close and we were not given notice.
Our family stayed for 4 days.
We were sold with the BEAUTIFUL VIEW. We felt like the lanai led right into the ocean! It was gorgeous to hear the ocean waves outside our window!
The kids loved that the unit was walking distance to the pool and tennis court. Unit was clean and it was fully equipped with all that we needed (toiletries, kitchen supplies, etc..) There was a cooler we used on our road trips and it was easy to cook with the spices and kitchenware that was provided.
Mahalo for a good time we will be back!
It was smaller than we thought. We were a group of 4 adults and 2 toddlers. It just wasnât big enough to accommodate everyone comfortably so two of us moved to another place. The interior has had some updating but clearly needs more. Location is convenient and the view from the patio is spectacular.
Perfect for our stay. Beautiful ocean views and near pool. On the small side and not the newest furnishings but this is as close to the oceanfront as you can get. Only AC on first floor so bedrooms can get warm. Great stay and will be back
This home had everything we needed and was cleaned and sanitized before our arrival. Great service from property manager. Beautiful views and conveniently located. Bbq grill came in handy and pool was nice.
Great views of the Pacific and dolphins going by! Felt safe in the complex. Nice kitchen with appliances in great condition. With TV and internet as well! The condo needs some loving attention for updates and deep cleaning. The owner was receptive to feedback. Our major complaint was in how crazy busy Kona was in the downtown area!
