Reviewer Comments:
This was our third time staying in Annie’s condo and we have already booked it for 2025. Our favorite time in the condo is sitting on the lanai drinking coffee in the morning. Being on the third floor it is very private and peaceful. The only people who can see you on the lanai or inside the condo would have to be in the water pretty far out. The location is also stellar. No walking down dangerous Alii. The road to the village is a side street with little traffic. We have gotten a little lazy and now just walk over to the beach next door. It is so easy to keep the beach gear in the car, grab the chairs and umbrella and walk next door. We used to drive to the beaches fighting traffic, parking and usually a long walk to the beach. When we got home we were pooped. Now we just go next door and are ready for happy hour at On The Rocks. We cannot wait for next year.

Condo was as photos & as described. Well appointed. Location was convenient for walk into town. Restaurants & beach in walking distance. Groceries and more beaches close by. Other travelers at resort friendly. Property Manager readily available via text. 2nd time at this resort (beach side) and would rent again.

Reviewer Comments:
The location of this condo complex sits one block from downtown Kona. The condo is ocean front and on top floor so is quiet. The lanai has a gorgeous view and the pool area is small but very comfortable. The condo itself, unfortunately, is in need of a complete overhaul from old frayed towels and incomplete kitchenware to all the furnishings which are run down and old. Lamps were taped to stay intact, furniture all mismatched and nothing appeared updated from original build of condo. Beautiful setting but the condo left much to be desired.

Apartment is a good size for our family of 3. The best features are the stunning view of the ocean from the balcony and the convenient location. Property management was welcoming and checked in with us throughout our stay. Apartment comes well equipped with everything you would need for a short stay. Overall a very pleasant stay for us. Thank you!

Absolutely could not top the ocean view from the room. Sunsets were spectacular. Check in and out process was a breeze, property manager’s communication prior to and during my stay were excellent.

We are frequent visitors to Kailua-Kona as my son & his family live here. We also like the location and units at Kona Reef. This year, my fiance and I made it "official" and decided on an ocean front unit for our was perfect!! So perfect in fact that we actually have a framed picture of the entry to the living room and view hanging in our house as a reminder of what a wonderful time we had and how much we enjoyed the unit. It is clean, has everything you need and above-all for us a nice firm bed for a comfortable night's sleep. Loved it and will be back.

The unit is right on the ocean and the views and sounds are unbeatable. The unit may be a bit small if you had four people stay as there is a lot a furniture in the small unit. We have stayed at Kona Reef may times and enjoyed each visit. Common area is well maintained and just enough rules to make it fun. Unit could have a little more attention to cleanliness but, we understand as it is in a cleaning service.

The oceanfront view was very pretty esp watching the sunset. The dishes displayed in the photo are not in the apartment. In fact there were 2 mix-matched wine glasses, 1 champagne glass and older glass dishes. The bed is extremely firm and takes up the entire bedroom. We couldn't use the outlets because the nightstands are squeezed in the space and cannot move. Not much closet space due a dresser and tv in there. The bedroom faces the front hallway, small window up above therefore no airflow and noisy. For the price, the apt could use updating. There was also a homeless person parked across from the parking lot every night who's car alarm went off for a long time in the early morning hour.

I have stayed in numerous condos and never staying in one so scantly supplied. Their kitchen has no basic supplied other than salt and pepper. Other units I have stayed in had seasonings, aluminum foil, a few baggies, coffee, sugar, etc, and this unit was bare of basic essentials. There seemed to also be a short in the kitchen light switch. Additionally, the dish washer smelled SO bad; we had to run it before we could even put in any dishes ... couldn't stand the smell long enough to load.
