Absolutely loved this property. Cannot beat the view -having coffee and wine on the balcony overlooking the Pacific Ocean was amazing , we love to people watch so we enjoyed watching the activity on Ali’i. Walked to dinner every night. Bed was comfortable and we slept great . Having a designated parking spot was a plus. I saw other comments about the telephone wires and noise - but we didn’t have an issue with either. Slept with AC on for white noise at night, Just FYI, there are two beach chairs , two boogie boards and two ice chests there as well .

I highly recommend this property! The ocean view from the deck was spectacular! The property was very spacious and clean, with easy reserved parking. In the heart of downtown Kona with plenty of restaurants and stores within steps of the front entrance. Under property condition I gave it 3 stars because it is dated and needs some renovation, but the location, ocean view and cleanliness to me outweighed that. Also, communication with the property manager was 5 star! Overall I would definitely come back!

We loved our stay at this lovely condo. Everything was well stocked and clean. The view was show stopping! Perfect in every aspect. Thank you so much for making our first trip to Hawaii extra special.

We had a lovely stay. Loved the central AC and fan, the two bathrooms, and waking up to the sound of the ocean. The only thing I didn't love was the feeling of the floor tiles, I know the floor was probably cleaned but the texture of the tiles made it feel like it wasn't so. However, it didn't negatively impact our stay. Also, was concerned about pests in the Big Island, but we didn't see a single pest. So overall, we enjoyed our stay!

For people who want to stay in the heart of restaurant and shops, this would be OK, but the noise level on the street made this second floor condo less than desirable. Indeed, there was a view of the water, but the photo online didn’t show quite the extent of the very thick powerline and power poles There was a warning about noise, but it was worse than I expected with the bass thumping of car radios as they drove by on the main drag just below me. The assigned parking space was oddly shaped and right up against the building wall. I am amazed I didn’t take my side mirror off. The fact that there was an elevator, and that you needed a key to get in was good.

The ocean view was wonderful . It has elevators to each floor. The pool is nice and if there are any issues its just a simple call to them and problem solved .

We absolutely loved our stay in Kona. The condo was perfect for the 2 of us and had everything we could possibly need for our stay. We loved the gorgeous ocean views and we enjoyed the people watching from the lanai. We hope to come back soon!

Our family of 3 loved this condo. The Lani was our favorite spot when not exploring the island. It had a great view of the bay and always had a breeze. For us, the location was perfect along the main strip of downtown Kona with many eating establishments, attractions and beautiful sunsets. Central location to other parts of the island make quick and easy access to beaches, snorkeling, surfing and not a bad drive to volcano National park. Ac was beneficial for sleeping at night on humid days in August. There is somewhat of a homeless population on the island but the security to the building and it’s facilities was excellent! Condo was well stocked for our needs. We consider this unit a great value for a small family or couple.

Great location, yes a bit noisy at night but understandable due to location and only for a few nights. Other nights were quiet.
Coffee & Breakfast on balcony in mornings watching sunrise & ocean & hearing ocean-priceless! Well appointed kitchen for all our needs. Parking spot is tight, so don’t get a giant rental. Small SUV fit tightly but it fit.

It is an older condo but it was very clean and property management was very responsive! We enjoyed being able to walk to lots of restaurants and listen to the ocean waves in the evening.

Very well equipped condo in the heart of entertainment and shopping area. Property management was very easy to communicate with and accommodating. Nice having a full kitchen and washer/dryer in the unit. Only negative for us was the noise levels from the very busy street and nightlife below. For some, I recognize this proximity would be a plus. But if you want a quiet seaside experience, be aware. Overall, we really enjoyed the stay!

We were told before we arrived that the dryer wasn't working and they were waiting for parts to fix it. What we didn't know until the day we checked in was that they had just sprayed for bugs and the strong smell from that persisted throughout our stay. Someone had turned the hot water off under the sink and we didn't realize that, but we knew we didn't have any hot water in the kitchen and because of that the dishwasher didn't work. Lovely place and good location, but on the second floor the street noise is a problem. Also the heavy hanging electric wires on the street hamper the view.

Great location. Walked to all restaurants and activities that were reserved in Kona. Overlooks the Bay. Electric wires can obscure the view and photo taking. Would want higher unit. Patio could have been cleaner. Dryer did not work and we were not told ahead of time.

This well appointed condo is right in the center of town. We walked to the local variety of shops and amazing restaurants. Every night we sat on the deck and listened to the sounds of the ocean and the local musicians playing different venues. This condo is a place for relaxing and enjoying the locale faire. You will be a couple of blocks from the farmers market, sand beaches for swimming, the pier to take a body glove whale watching boat. Perfect for a couple or family vacation!

This unit was convenient and had a great view, disappointing was the bathrooms needed complete remodel and the washer dryer was so small I spent a great deal of time washing clothes towels etc as it barely fit two towels at a time . We could never get the TVs to work for regular basic channels the ac vents were extremely dusty as well as the old closet louvered doors. The restaurants were close to walk to and every one we tried was great the mgmt was great at aLlowing us an extended check out time; I had also made sure most laundry and housekeeping was completed before leaving as well Location is great for booking activities like luau , dinner cruise, and snorkel trips. Which were fabulous

We had a very wonderful time in Condo. Beautiful sunsets and pleasant views. One day for a couple of hours we watched spinner dolphins playing in the water in front of the Condo. Great places to eat close by. Enjoyed the music at the Lava Java restaurant next door. Clean, nice pool and very private. Only problem which you don't have control of is the noise on Alii Drive.

Great spot, exactly has described. The unit was clean, the kitchen was packed with absolutely everything we needed and the lanai was a perfect spot for breakfast. We were concerned that the car traffic would be pretty disruptive, but the sound of the waves crashing seems to drown out all the street noise. Light Hawaiian music came form the restaurant next door, which was a wonderful addition. Excellent location, right in the middle of town next to unlimited shops and restaurants.

Nice condo with a great location! Wonderful view of the ocean, where we were able to watch dolphins in the morning while enjoying coffee and breakfast. The condo had all the dishes, utensils, etc that we needed, and also had useful items such as beach towels, coolers, mats, beach chairs, and sunscreen. Walking distance to many shops, restaurants, and activities. Loved our stay here!

The location of this condo was in the very centre of tourist activity in Kona. Restaurants and shops were in walking distance, and the ocean crashed ashore right across the road. The suite was well equipped and clean, and our contact with the rental agency was very successful.

Nice to find a place on short notice in the busy season.We enjoyed sitting on the Lanai and listening to the live music from Lava Java right next door and almost feeling the spray from the surf on the beach at the same time! The condo was fairly well stocked although could have used a few more items in the kitchen such as a potato peeler and large salad bowl.

Couldn't ask for a better location! Everything was just as advertised. Any prior concerns about lack of dishes, etc were completely addressed and the unit was wonderfully appointed. Also, some very nice little touches set out by the Boundless management company which I did not expect in a condo rental, but appreciated so much. Can't think of a much better way to spend vacation than waking up and drinking my Kona coffee on that spacious lanai with the spectacular view!

The unit was clean and fairly well appointed. It's ocean front, so the waves are breaking 60 ft away across Alii Dr. You do get some street noise, worse in the AM. Surprisingly, if you're sleeping in the living room, the surf can be more disruptive than the street noise. But the view from the lanai as you have your morning coffee is completely worth the price of admission! Kona Alii is perfectly situated in Kailua Village to access the entire "strip" from Coconut Grove Ctr to the Pier on foot. And the pool is the best I've seen in Kona.

This property management company is very difficult to contact by telephone, and we also had to call them a week before our stay to receive our directions and access code, as that information had not been sent to us. They did not contact us at all during our stay to check on whether we had any problems. The condo did not have WIFI, telephone, or I POD docking station - amenities that should have been included for the price we were paying. The general cleanliness was poor - dishes and pots, pans etc needed washing before use. The washer/dryer need to be replaced, and a ceiling fan would make the bedroom more comfortable. The sliding door was very difficult to move, and the lever did not work on one set of window panes in the bedroom, so they could not be opened from the inside or locked. No deadbolt on the main door either, so the security could be improved. Although we liked the location, we felt that this unit was not worth the price!
