Our host, Tom, was fantastic to deal with. Check in and check out were a breeze. The condo worked very well for our family of 4. The resort is beautiful and maintained very well. 10/10 would recommend and would absolutely stay again!
Wonderful owner, very engaged and helpful, really nice place overlooking the ocean with Lookout Vantage points to watch the sunsets and also wonderful sunsets right from the patio at the condo!
Nice unit in an oceanfront complex near downtown.
Everything was nice, well stocked with everything you need in the kitchen. The bed was super comfortable which was much appreciated after busy touring days!
Good view and all the amenities needed to relax in Hawaii.

Aloha Joseph,
I really appreciate very nice guests, as you were. You were also very considerate to my nice housekeeper as you left my apartment in good condition.
Thanks for you nice comments about my Apartment and Royal Sea Cliff Resort.
Upon your next stay you will receive all benefits of returning guests, such as Free Early Check-ins..
Thanks Again,
Tom Kahl
The property was just as described. Room was quiet, bed super comfortable, kitchen well stocked with dishes and cookware. Both pools right on the ocean were great places to swim or sit in the shade listening to the waves. Great sunset and ocean views from several balcony seating areas.
We had a wonderful stay at Royal Sea Cliff. Neat as a pin condo with every detail in place. Quiet complex allows for the enjoyment of bird song, soft breezes and soaking in the beautiful views from this beach front property. We enjoyed this location, being a short drive into Kona.

As much as I want to give Tom a gracious review, I also have to be honest to potential renters. This unit is out on the Ali Road, about as far away from the pools as possible. The Lanai overlooks a parking lot. Musty-smell in the apartment. The "free wifi" is terrible, we fought it all week. It's not a dedicated streaming service typical these days, instead a shared Spectrum WIFI that's very unstable. The TV's are old and only one allows for any streaming at all, if you can figure out a ethernet cable. The bed mattress is older, but instead of replacing it with a new mattress, they just covered it with a 3 inch foam pad. The fan in the bedroom did not have a remote so we had to have the fan on the entire stay. It's a large lanai, but it's cluttered with extra planters and beach stuff so it's a bit of a mess. The overall condition of the apartment is aged. ON THE POSITIVE: The apartment is spacious. All of the appliances are newer and nice. There's sufficient utensils and amenities to make your stay nice. There's a nice work desk, and covered parking is so convenient.
The property was very clean. The kitchen had everything you might need. There were plenty of little touches that made my trip a breeze such as providing laundry detergent and dish soap, even a re-usable shopping bag for groceries. Everything was as advertised and the property manager's communication was excellent.
Tom was extremely responsive and made everything go smoothly. Condo is well stocked with paper and cooking supplies as well as towels and beach supplies. The property is conveniently located to all the shops and restaurants and is quiet with two pools. We had a wonderful stay and would love to return soon. Thank you Tom!!

A nice property right on the water front. Brand new appliances throughout the unit. Bed was very comfortable. Beach gear and towels a bonus. Unfortunately there were roaches in the kitchen and bathroom. Otherwise I would have given a 4 star rating

Nice Get-Away
We had a wonderful few days at this condo.....wish it had been longer, and hope to visit again in the future!! The condo was clean, spacious, nicely furnished and "relatively" accommodating for my husband who is in a wheel chair (a little tight in the bathroom area, but do-able). The owner was easy to talk to and made every effort to make our stay enjoyable and relaxing. We enjoyed the amenities the Royal Sea Cliff provides (and it is wheelchair accessible in all areas), and the two pools and hot tub, and BBQ areas are wonderful.

Great stay
Really enjoyed our stay at this condo from Jan 21st to Jan 28th. Tom was more than helpful anytime I contacted him. The condo was clean. Very large complex with two pools and a hot tub. Close to downtown Kona.
I have to comment one more time that Tom was great. My family and I highly recommend staying here. I went with my parents (both 60+) and my fiancé (29 yrs)

Aloha to my nice guests Alissa and here family.
I was pleased that she mentioned to me, how well stocked with necessities, cooking and baking items, and that is was more than large enough for there family of 4. (It is the largest one bedroom in the complex).
And importantly that it is very clean.
Alissa and her family are most welcome back at any time, for they will always have a place where they belong.
The condo was very beautiful and the location was wonderful! We were able to walk into town.
The condo had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The kitchen was well equipped for us to prepare our meals.
We were able to use the beach chairs and the towels at the beach.
The pools at the resort over looked the ocean and were very beautiful.
As an added bonus, we actually met the owner while we were standing in line at the car rental place. Thank you, Tom!
Nice property. We had no hot water. Tom got us a different unit and was very responsive and friendly. But we went 2 days with cold showers.

Smelled musty and dark. Lighting sucked was still dark. Washer not working properly upon arrival .
Owner very seamed very nice. I had water issues in bathroom. Could use an updating. Needs top to bottom cleaning. Light bulbs were covered with dust and microwave dirty inside. Glad my children got a room from hotels.com at same place with working washer and brighter. Because my condo was a place to sleep and shower. And microwave water for my coffee.

Good: communication with owner was top notch. He responded to all of my inquiries & was very helpful upon check in & check out. Unit location was great & neighborhood is quiet. The grounds are absolutely lovely & the pools are right on the ocean so great views. Unit was well equipped, (including beach essentials), lots of towels, extra linens, kitchen ware, etc. Unit had air conditioning ( a real necessity as it was very hot the week we were there) & full size W/D in the unit, which was a real plus. Free ice. Free garage parking out of the sun & rain also a plus. Staff are helpful & friendly. They have an orientation several times a week to help visitors get the most out their time on the island. We didn't attend so not sure if it turned out to be a timeshare presentation which we are definitely not interested in.
Not so good: Unit is quite dated & could use a refresh or at the least a very good professional deep cleaning. Things are a bit dirty. Smoke alarm looked ancient, hopefully it works. Unit smelled of mildew although I didn't really see any. We understand that due to the heat & moisture in Hawaii, it's hard to keep things dry but we've stayed at several condos on the Big Island & never experienced this smell.
The condo was clean, very pleasant and comfortable. It had all the amenities we needed. Morning coffee on the deck was wonderful with all sorts of colorful birds stopping by to say hi. The condo complex was clean, well maintained and beautiful. The views of the stormy ocean from the common areas was incredible. We enjoyed our time there despite the very bad weather that caused us to stay inside more than planned. The hot tub and deck areas became wonderful social gathering areas for all of us visitors. The unit is very centrally located to all of the Kona side attractions. We found it very easy to get in/out of town. Parking at the condo is very convenient. In town parking is expensive unless you do not mind walking a bit.Tom, our host, has made check-in and check-out real easy. He was always available by email or phone and was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. He also gave us some ideas for adventures when the weather was rough. He is a great host.We would definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay at this property. They had beach chairs, towels, snorkel gear - pretty much anything you would need. The location was good - just know you do have to walk a little to get into downtown, which was a bit scary at night with there not being a side walk the entire way. The pool was awesome and never super crowded, and the view was beautiful. The only thing I wish was different was a slightly earlier check in time, other than that everything was great!
Everything was great at the property. Tom responded quickly about any questions I had. He gave some tips on some activities we might enjoy. The rental was very nice. I highly recommend it if your visiting there.
Things I liked
- A clean place
- A truly comfortable bed
- Quiet area
- Plenty of extra towels
- Ability to do laundry
- Very close to the stairs and to where we parked
- Close enough to Kona to be convenient, far enough to be quiet
- Tom provided clear instructions on check-in and check-out and was easy to communicate with
- Check-out instructions were the most reasonable I've ever seen
Things I didn't like
- Nothing

Great place
Great place to rent. A little far from town, but that didn't hinder our plans. Pool nice.
Very nice place that was clean and comfortable. The bed was very nice and a nice view from the lanai. A bit far from the ocean, but we weren't in the room too much either. But parking was super convient and quick to get in and out. Tom was super helpful and answered all our questions. Definitely nice to have a quiet place with the comforts of home!

About the host
Hosted by Tom Kahl
After college at Pennsylvania State University, I started from scratch, a successful outdoor store called Outdoor Experience. Ironically, except for leading trips and teaching windsurfing, it kept me away from the outdoors. I sold it and moved to the San Francisco Bay area. I invested in homes in San Francisco, Ca. and Park City, Utah. Loving the outdoors and nature naturally drew me to Hawaii. It's so special, no where else on earth combines Fun, Excitement, and Beauty with a perfect year-round Climate.
Why they chose this property
I searched the Kona Coast with the best agents in Kona, Kona Resort Properties. Royal Sea Cliff Resort, has the best of all worlds. Beautiful maintained and superly designed and on best part of the Ocean and Coast. It is the closest Resort to Kona, (easy walk) that still feels like a tropical paradise.
What makes this property unique
This Architecture is the best of the modern styles. It works so well with the Land and the Ocean, and the ancient Lava Flow Bluff. Though the buildings look imposing, they are not over 25' tall at any one place. Only a few Studios were built, and are special since they are always at the end of the wings, surrounded on three sides with lush tropical vegetation. Very private and very peaceful.
