The condo had a beautiful ocean view. We really appreciated all the special touches such as yoga mats, weights, snorkels, beach chairs, tennis rackets and more. Compared to other rentals they had full size shampoo and soap and Saran and baggies. Very nice touches.

Great stay in superb location

The property is situated in a premier location on the water in a quiet, gated community. The Tennis, Pickle ball and ping pong facilities were great. The pool, just across the drive from the unit was well maintained and great. We used the BBQ units in the property frequently and sat on the lounge chairs overlooking the Pacific Ocean while eating or just decompressing. Very good choice for a relaxing stay.

Supreme location with easy access to amenities

The location is hard to beat as the private Lanai is overlooking the shoreline, with waves splashing against the rocks and a stunning sunset every evening. The community also provides easy access to beach, pool and tennis courts. The unit features a modern, beachy design, with all the amenities to make the stay easy and effortless. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating of the special requests that we had. All in all, a great experience!

Beautiful Sunset

For our first trip the to Big Island, we had an amazing and relaxing time. Thank you to Jenny, Peter and John for sharing your piece of paradise with us. Location was great, right on the waters, short walk to the beach, 15 minutes for the downtown area and amazing sunsets every day. Only annoyance were the ants that kept visiting, but nothing we couldn't deal with. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful ocean view condo!

We had to change our plans from Maui to Kona and were lucky to find this great two story condo with an amazing ocean view. We loved having coffee every morning seeing the canoes and kayaks go by and watching the sun set at night from the back patio! Unobstructed ocean view! Communication with the owners was nice and easy and the condo was well stocked with anything we needed, including beach chairs and snorkel gear. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

The property is perfectly located in a stunning water front community. It is a safe and quiet community but close enough to anything you want to have access to. The place is beautiful and cozy and well renovated! We LOVED being waterfront and got so used to listening to the waves rolling in. Absolutely perfect for sunsets. The house has everything you could possibly need and more. If we return to Kona, we will stay here again. Thanks for opening your special home to us!

Great First Trip to Big Island

We will missed the sounds of the Pacific while we sleep. As other reviews note great location in complex and on the island. You do have to live without AC but not really an issue as long as you have the windows open and the fans going. Unit has everything you need for a great time with the family.

About the host

Hosted by Jenny, Pete and John

Host profile image
Our family has owned this beautiful home since the 1980's. All of our married children spent fabulous honeymoons in #188. We very much enjoy escaping there to continue the memories and relax in its beauty and comfort. The property is managed by the owners who frequently visit to ensure it feels like home.

Why they chose this property

The weather and beauty of the Kona Coast on the Big Island with all its diversity on ocean and land is spectacular. #188 in the Surf and Raquet Club is best located, and the amenities of the Club outstanding. The pool and tennis courts are only 100 feet away. Small private black sand beach is about 400 feet away. The popular snorkeling spot at Kahalu'u Beach Park is an 8 minute walk.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the ocean right in front of #188. I enjoy seeing, hearing, smelling, and feeling it. I love the whales, canoes, and sunsets. I take the short walk to excellent snorkeling to see colorful tropical fish and sea turtles. I also walk to the nearby shopping center and movie theater and from there have taken the trolley, or biked, to Kailua. One of my favorite walks is to the bay with kayaking and charter boat scuba, snorkeling, and fishing adventures and circling back to the Surf and Racquet Club to relax by the pool.
