bbq and clubhouse.

Right across from the famous Magic Sands beach, Kona's only beach. Kahulu’u beach, the best snorkeling beach around, is just a mile down Alii Dr. Free shuttle to Kona town.

Awesome 2 bed 2 bath LARGE condo with double door lanai and great ocean view. Lovely common use areas, pool, hot tubs. Very pleasant and easy to communicate with rental owner. Two king beds were awesome for our family of 4. Perfectly stocked in the condo. It was great and we want to come back.

The cute condo on the third level was amazing! It fit our family of 6 perfectly. The owners provided everything you need for your Hawaiian vacation. From all kitchen utensils, washer and dryer, and all your beach necessities.Everything is there for you. You have a very popular beautiful beach walking distance from the condo. Which is a awesome because you didn't have to look for parking. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you for sharing your home to us. We can't wait to come back!

Our stay was very comfortable and quiet. We had everything we needed to have a fantastic time. Being able to walk across the street to a beach that was fun to play on is a big bonus. It's not the most modern or fancy place to stay, but we thought it was wonderful for the cost per night. We had one issue during our stay, but it was resolved super-fast. The owner was quick to respond even though it was late when we called. You'll enjoy your stay if you're not picky people.

White Sands Village is an incredibly well run condo complex. Beach across the street makes it even better. #310 was super clean and well stocked. Will definitely stay here again!!

There was black mold on the ceiling! Then the owner took ALL the furniture off the lanai! We had to go buy chairs to sit on outside on the lanai! I’ve rented at this complex before but, this place was a mess! Don’t use this rental!

This property was the gem of our stay while we visited Hawaii. The house was wonderfully clean, beds were the BEST, and even better, air conditioning so after a long hot day we could cool off. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to everyone I know.

We enjoyed our time at Magic Sands village. Quite complex, clean condo, and great location. Make sure to go across the street to Magics Bar and grill. Great location, food, and service.

location across from beach (not a swimming or snorkeling beach) nice, Magics for food/beer was really good. Condo needs updating and the ants in the deck chair were not nice.

This condo is great! It had all the amenities we needed. It is conveniently located across the street from White Sands Beach. Description on the website is accurate and the owners are very helpful and respond promptly to any questions. Beds are very comfortable, the size of the condo accommodated my family no problem (6). Hands down an excellent choice to enjoy beautiful Hawaii! Highly recommend!

My fiancé and I stayed here for the last three days on the island and it was the perfect spot. Directly across from Magic Sands (swimming and sunsets!) and a HIBikes rental area (we mostly rode bikes and walked) - super convenient! The space was perfect for us - one room was our closet and the other was our bedroom. Both beds were very comfortable and the condo was fully stocked with kitchen and beach essentials. We’d love to stay again!

The condo was everything we imagined and more! We stayed 4 nights. Location is amazing right across from a white sand beach and right next to a bike rental. Full kitchen with really nice cookware that all matched! (No coffee provided for the first morning, just FYI). The knives really need to be sharpened, but that's just us! The kitchen is a real "foodies dream". Any utensil you would ever want was there. The beach chairs were excellent and there was plenty of snorkel gear and other flotation options including boogies boards and a float belt. The BEDS!!!! King size and way comfortable! Memory foam, and we just wished we had our pets with us to share the space. Washer and dryer (with soap/dryer sheets were provided). Great massage chair in the living area for an extra touch! Very quiet.

Laurel and Chris' condo was amazing! The location directly across from one of the best white sand beaches on Hawaii was perfect for the relaxation days when we did not want to drive around and explore, but it was also very centrally located for all the snorkeling we did north and south of Kona. The condo was immaculate, fresh, and stocked full of all the needed kitchen items (we mostly cooked meals at the condo because we had picky kids with us). Additionally, they had tons of gear at the condo for us to use. Boogie boards, nice snorkel gear, flippers, and beach towels. Next time we come, we can pack about 25% less knowing that so much is provided at the condo. I cannot recommend this place enough. Chris was always available via text, and was incredibly helpful. Book this place!

Our family group of five enjoyed the living and sleeping spaces, the convenience of the washer and dryer in the appartment, the well equipped kitchen. Easy access to the highway road for visiting other areas of the island and for the airport !

This rental served as the perfect homebase well we have a couple of days to explore the big Island. It was well equipped, and very comfortable. The complex itself was quiet and the beach across the street was perfect. I would recommend this condo to anyone looking to stay on the big Island.

We stayed three weeks at this condo and thoroughly enjoyed it. It is well appointed and easily accommodated two couples. The unit has been updated in the recent past so it comes with comfortable furniture, large dining table and good appliances. The beds were very comfortable and the ceiling fans in each room certainly helped get a sound sleep. The unit is centrally located and just across the road from a very popular beach. All-in-all, an excellent location from which to tour Kona. Highly recommended.

We had a great time in Kona. Mostly because we were close to the beaches and town without being too far or too close. Everything was easy to get to and enjoy. The condo is exceptionally nice, better than the houses our friends had and the onsite pool was very nice and handy. Next time we will use the picnic building, it will make a great place to entertain our friends and family for diner, without being cramped. It was a great place to explore the entire Big Island from. and the AC (which our friends did not have) was very nice on the hot days.

We checked in after 6pm and Chris was super helpful over the phone and walked us through everything. Starting from extra beach towels reusable grocery bags to snorkel gear, this apartment had it all. Chris gave us great local tips, such as a good snorkel place, be careful of the rocks etc. The beds and bathrooms were very clean and the washer was an added benefit especially since we always had beach clothes to wash. Overall a great experience, we would recommend it anyone.

This was our first visit to Kona. We loved the island and loved this condo. It is perfectly located for enjoying the ocean, the town and the "Hawaiian" way of life. The condo was a true gem - upgraded throughout with tasteful decor that made you feel right at home and fully stocked with items to make your vacation enjoyable (snorkel gear, beach chairs, TV/cable, etc.). Each bedroom was quiet and comfortable. The living and dining rooms were upgraded and made the open space comfortable for relaxing and entertaining. The lanai overlooks the pool and has ocean view. The pool is awesome -- heated perfectly -- a great spot to relax after a day in the sun and sea. Definitely coming back!!!! (in the spring 2015!!!!!)

Wonderful, updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath ocean-view condo, on famous Alii Drive, top floor, across the street from White Sands beach. This place is very comfortable, with lots of upgrades and everything you might need. The kitchen is fully stocked, new furniture, nice ceiling fans, new TVs, comfortable couches, with comfortable king and queen beds, with all the gear you might need to play tennis, snorkel, or hit the beach. The condo complex has tennis courts, a pool/ hot tub downstairs, and multiple BBQ’s. We loved snorkeling at Kahalu’u Beach with 5 turtles, just half a mile south. Quick 5 minutes north to historic Kailua-Kona town, and close to ocean-side restaurants, like Huggo’s on the beach, which we loved. Shopping abounds. It was great to be able to BBQ downstairs, eat breakfast out on the lanai in the morning, (with Kona coffee!!), play tennis, snorkel, etc. We really enjoyed having more space than we ever did in a hotel. Would highly recommend!
