The Kona Surf and Racquet club is a beautiful and convenient place to stay. Ive stayed at this location (not this condo) several times and I love this location!!! With that said the condo stated it was renovated, but I found it had several areas untouched. The master bathroom needs work, at least a new sink, and counter, wall needs to be finished by washer dryer where they did some work and just left it open to the studs. Didn't even have a stopper in sink, and when you used it, all you could smell is sewage.
The primary bedroom was ok, bed was very comfortable. The second bedroom was ok, but the management company got a hold of me the 2nd day in, stating that they wanted to send someone out to replace the TV. Guess it didn't work. So, they used my vacation time that I booked the condo, to have someone come in, measure, and go buy the TV. Then the next day, use my time again to deliver it to the room. Excuse me....when I am on vacation, and paying for the room, that is not the time I want maintenance activities to happen!!! Unless it is emergent, then schedule these things in between rentings!!! The only good thing about it was they got rid of this super nasty old fan...rusted piece of crap that should have been replaced ions ago. They had it sitting in the livingroom. So, they did bring a new fan in, after I complained. I figured since they were coming anyway, they needed to get rid of that.
The kitchen was renovated. It did have a good assortment of utensils, plates, pots and pans. It did have a coffee machine and grinder which was all great. Just FYI, absolutely no condiments...not even salt and pepper, so prepare to grab those.
Dinning room wasn't too great, couldn't get the light to work, also the table was too high, or chairs to low...I felt like a little kid eating. Living room had nice furniture, but one of the biggest disappointments was the view while sitting in the Livingroom. Directly out the lanai door is a grass incline with a short hedge on top. So, while sitting, you can't see the water, just the grass. If you stand, or sit on the lanai tall bar height table, you can enjoy the view...which by the way is breath taking! Thank God for the amazing ocean sounds, and crashing of waves, even if you couldn't see the water, you could hear it! That is if the kids in the apartment above you weren't running around and screaming. Which happened for about 10 days of our 14 day stay.
