The condo was very nicely appointed with a great view. It was very clean. The location is excellent with the exception of road noise. It was so close to a major intersection that it was very loud at times.

Thank you for your feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and the view. We'll address the noise concerns to enhance future guests' experiences.
Rented this unit for 2 weeks in December 2025. Perfect for our 4 person family. Location was great and the unit was walking distance to the marina, access to a swimming beach, grocery stores and the Outrigger Hotel. The Unit, Grounds and Pool area where all well kept and overall this was a great place to stay.

Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and found our location convenient. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
Beautiful property with beautiful views! Very clean and well kept. The rental had everything needed for a beach vacation: beach chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, sand toys, boogie boards… it made our stay really enjoyable as we were well prepared to enjoy the many beaches nearby! Would highly recommended and would love to come back :)
This property is exactly what we had hoped for. It had all the essentials for a traveler. I appreciated the location from nearby attractions. The check in process was easy. Parking spot was easily accessible. I would stay here again.
We enjoyed this rental and felt it was in a great location, close to shopping yet, far from the congestion. Lack of A/C was not an issue (our stay was Jan). We enjoyed the pool,hot tub, and the view of the golf cource and ocean.

Should be a 55+ rental
My family stayed over Christmas for 2 weeks. The condo was lovely and the grounds were very well kept. However the rules for the pool and grass area are not welcoming to families and the permanent residents do not like the tourists or children. This place should be rented as an adult only.

Reviewer Comments:
Great place, as long as you don’t have kids. Several rules regarding “quiet spaces” and “quiet times.” Totally understand not wanting spring break all the time, but a rule regarding no “Marco polo” in a pool is a little silly. Also, definitely be prepared for flying ants!

Aloha Joseph, we apologize if you felt as though the property is not for kids. We were not reached out about the flying ants and hope they were not in the unit as this was not reported to us. We appreciate you staying with us. Mahalo

Beautiful view, but...
The view could; not be beat! However, there was no AC, so windows had to be open. One room could not open the windows because a screen was ripped. Another room had no window to open. Very hot and stuffy for sleeping. Maybe worse was the road noise outside the condo. It sits at a corner of a busy road at an intersection.. Very noisy all day and night.

Thank you for the detailed feedback on your stay. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We strive to provide a comfortable and peaceful environment for our guests, and your input is invaluable in helping us achieve that goal. We hope you will consider staying with us again in the future.
Aloha!
If you’re traveling with a party of five, this place is for you! Great use of space in the loft area and second bedroom. This property is perfectly located from the main attractions in the area.
This property had a lot of pros and a few cons. Some of the cons were the pest issues and the other was the no full AC unit (which we knew would prob happen) but it did get hot in the unit despite our continuance air flow. So if you’re not used to it, this unit is not for you. Another con for us was the power surge protector breaking off too many times. But when we figured it out, we just kept turning it back on.
Nonetheless, should we return to Hawaii, this would be a unit of my consideration. The management staff were always available and so attentive, which is super, super bonus for me! Kudos to them for the alertness and prompt response; mahalo for that.
Hope this helps my fellow bookers.
Aloha!

Aloha! We thank you for your feedback. We are working on the pest control with the HOA. With the hot weather in Hawaii the bugs come out more often but we do our best to keep them under control. While the home lacks AC it does have fans throughout to help keep you cool. We are glad you enjoyed your stay overall and look forward to your return.

Reviewer Comments:
On face value, the quality and amenities of this condo were great. Super clean, fully equipped, lots of stuff for the beach. Close to road that is noisy, but we still thought value was good. However the reliability was the key issue and why we wouldn’t stay again. Wi-Fi didn’t work despite our efforts to reach out for a fix. Dryer was finicky. On the last day we lost all water and we were switched to a different condo. While we understood this was out of the managements control, it was a lot of effort to move, the replacement condo was not as nice and was hot with less fans. We then discovered the dryer in this unit did not work at all and ended up making trips back to the previous condo at 5 am before our flight out to try to dry clothes (in the finicky dryer!) that we had washed. It was a poor ending to our time in Kona and efforts to reach out to management to make it right were unanswered. This was our third condo in Kona to have mechanical issues that required a changeOf plans which leaves us feeling like the maintenance/management in this area may be unreliable.

Aloha Elizabeth, we apologize if you felt as though we were not reliable. We tried our best to stay in contact with you and assist with any problems along the way. Unfortunately, we had no control over the water shut off. But, glad we had a unit available that was on the same property so it wouldn't be a difficult move. Mahalo

We enjoyed our week-long stay in this beautiful condo. It has plenty of space for a big family and a well-equipped kitchen. There are also lots of beach play equipment including snorkels, umbrella, chairs, etc. The sunset view from the balcony is amazing. There is no AC but the fans should be sufficient to cool down the house.

Loved this place, lack of air-conditioning was a real downfall and a tad heavy on rules and restrictions but overall we had a really great time, great place to relax and watch the sunsets!
Wonderful time staying here. The extra loft bedroom was perfect for our family. We really enjoyed the lanai and the quick walk to the bay. We were able to quickly get to our snorkeling and manta ray trips just by walking down the street!
