We had a great time in Hawaii but the highlight was the view from the lanai. We spent hours out there watching the birds, the boogie boarders, the boats and especially the sunsets. The location was a big plus; it was great to be able to walk to the market, shops and restaurants.
Wonderful property, consistent with all the previous reviews. Great location. We appreciated (and used) the abundant snorkel equipment provided. We really enjoyed relaxing on the lanai. We absolutely loved how comfortable the bed was in the master. Would definitely stay here again.
Excellent location. Perfect place for our first family vacation with our adult children. Loved that they could walk into town. The lanai had the best view of the Big Island Sunset. The kitchen had everything necessary to cook a nice dinner in. Had everything you could possibly need for your stay.
We loved staying in this corner unit! The views were great and the place was well stocked with beach gear and snorkeling equipment so we could snorkel at the beach right outside our window. Great restaurants were in walking distance and the sunsets were beautiful!
Beautiful condo with a fantastic views….wonderful sunsets and so enjoyable to see surfing/body boarding right from the lanai.The condo was very thoughtfully equipped with just about anything you need!
Exactly as pictured with the water and beach right there, as well as excellent location for enjoying the Big Island. This was our 3rd time using this unit we like it so much. Quality of the interior is a pleasure as well as the communication with the host.
Well stocked kitchen with an amazing sunrise and beach view! Appliances all worked well. The furniture inside and out was beautiful and comfy. We enjoyed walking every day for shopping, exercise and going to restaurants. It was hard to leave sometimes because we enjoyed watching the dolphins, surfers etc right from the lanai. There were so many snorkels and masks that our kids enjoyed- in the awesome pool and at the beaches. This was one of our favorite condos anywhere. Thanks for sharing with our family! Amazing sunsets and memories made. Aloha and mahalo!

Aloha,
You're so very welcome! We're glad that you & ohana enjoyed your stay!
We'd love to host you again in the future =) Take care!
Perfectly located, just as expected, beautiful decor, great communication! Such a nice complex, walkable to shops and restaurants. All of the amenities we needed were there.
What a lovely stay we had at your place! Hoping to return again! So much to do and see on the BI!
I really can’t say enough good things, amazing sunsets too!
We have stayed at Kona Reef for many years. This was the first time in this room. The location is perfect, the accommodations were neat and clean just as pictured. It is right next to the beach, walking distance to downtown area on Ali drive. Loved our stay, and cannot wait to book again!!
Property was perfect for our family of four and our week stay on the Big Island. Location is perfect right next to Honls Beach. We started each morning with yoga on the beach and listening to the waves crashing while enjoying a cup of coffee on the lanai. Our teens loved being able to make the short walk into town and explore the shops of Kailua Kona. Thanks for an amazing stay and we would definitely come back.

This unit at Kona Reef was exceptional and i would recommend it highly. The location right on the ocean provided excellent views of the sunset and is close to the pool. The pictures were spot on and we look forward to going back! Mahalo
Great property, great location. Very morning was beautiful and wonderful sounds of the ocean. Kids could play in front of the condo or at the beach next to it and we could still see them. It was perfect. We would definitely stay here again.
Beautifully appointed condo with superb views of the coastline. Easy access to every imaginable activity. Very gracious host with quick communication when we had a question.
