Our family recently visited Kona and truly enjoyed the accommodations. The location was conveniently located to many restaurants and activities on the island. The unit was spacious and the pool area was fantastic. We would definitely stay here again.

This apartment was a great basr for exploring Kona and amazing sights on the west side. Our host was very helpful with recommendations for restaurants.

We had a great stay! place was very clean and comfortable, manager was so nice she asked if we needed anything? I said yes sharp knifes! (I was using my pocket knife) the next day there was a new set that was wonderful.

We are a family of 4 from Honolulu and this was our first time to Kona. The unit was in a good location and was nice and spacious. A/C worked great and we don’t have central A/C in our house so it was a real treat. We cooked an entire Thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen. Having the master bathroom with big shower was super nice. Having the box of pool/beach toys was a nice touch. Our 15 year old and 2 year old loved the pool which was clean and a good temp. The only annoyance on the trip was the roosters in the woods nearby which start crowing at 4:30am!
Overall we really enjoyed and would stay here again. The unit really is big and open and has a comfy feel.

Beds were plenty comfortable - place was clean and it was just across the street from the ocean and in a good central location. Pool and hot tub were nice too! Would stay here again - even met other condo owners who were very welcoming

The unit was AWESOME and property owner just the best!
Wondering how long that elevator has been out of service? Hard on older folks.

Our family stayed at this condo and it was perfect! The condo came equipped with all of the essentials and more. The location is just a quick drive from downtown Kona and there is so much to do. We did have 1 issue with one of the slider doors and they came and fixed it the next day! The kids loved the pool and seeing the occasional kitty visiting the property. We enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again in the future!

This is a nice, clean condo. The island host and housekeeper were both easy to reach and very accommodating when we asked to drop off our things at the condo long before the check-in time, and they responded very quickly and fixed a leak in the ceiling.

I throughly enjoyed my stay! Location was perfectly located on Ali’i Drive, quiet, safe, and across from the beach to catch beautiful sunsets.
All essentials were provided and communication with host was excellent. Yin was accommodating and quick to respond. Overall, I recommend booking her place… you will not be disappointed!

Ying provided a great handbook before we arrived. Everything was detailed and we had issues while we were there. The condo was clean and comfortable for 4 adults, and outfitted with everything we needed. We appreciated having the beach chairs and beach towels, put them to good use. We had a great time exploring the Big Island, first time there and hope to go back.

We had a great time at the Royal Kahili. The pool and outdoor area were great. The whole place has a very mellow vibe and the location is perfect for exploring Kona. The apartment was very comfortable and the back porch over looks an undeveloped forested area where we saw wild pigs and chickens. The only downside for us was that even though there was an elevator, there were multiple steps to get to the apartment and the pool. Our son uses a wheelchair and we had selected the apartment because of the elevator. We were able to make it work but it was a little tricky. Overall we would highly recommend staying here!

The kitchen was under supplied. For example there were only 3 steak knives. There were 5 of us. The other sharp knives weren’t sharp. Three pool/beach towels. we did text the owner and were brought 2 more towels. Air conditioner was very loud. It place was pretty dated.. It was quite. The grounds and pool were nice. BBQs weren’t the best. The pool was great but the spa wasn’t working. Never got hot. The location was good with a pretty beach across the street but not for swimming etc. it was fun in the morning to sit and have coffee on the balcony and look out to a jungle with wild pigs, chickens and roosters and all kinds of birds. We could hear the waves. But the chest with the beach equipment etc was all wet and sandy and very unorganized. Smelled a bit mildewed. I would give the unit a C grade.

The beach gear on the porch had everything we needed for the beach. The digital guide was helpful. There is a open air market with Shaka Tacoz and Empanadas place that are awesome. Will reserve again when visiting big island.

The location is great. The place is very clean. It has everything we need for four adults. I'd definitely stay there again next time on the Big Island.

The two bedroom, two bath, A/C and Washer/Dryer were a major plus and made our stay very comfortable.

The condo was perfect and even nicer than in the pictures! It's a huge place and has a full kitchen, large living space and everything was clean. The pool area is overlooking the ocean and it was just perfect! The host is super attentive and gave a whole digital guide book for things to do and rules about the place which was very helpful. It was really easy to check in with the key lockbox too. Nothing but positive things to say. We met the property manager Bridgete and she was super nice. We would love to return to this condo someday and trust me, if you're looking at this place, just book it before someone else gets it! Thanks for a great stay!

Few condo complexes have such a wonderful pool. It’s always at a perfect temp. It’s in the shape of a V, and has a nice deep side plus a shallow side suitable for kids. The hot tub is luscious. And to get to pool you crossed little bridges over a terrific Koi pond…..Location of complex is no more than ten minutes from really cute downtown of Kauluaf-Kona. Access to the highways is quick and easy. We explored the entire Kona and Kohala coasts in easy drives. Condo itself needs some updating but is very well/equipped. Lots of beach towels, and kitchen is ready for almost any good cook. New washer/dryer a big plus. Beds very comfy. And bathrooms updated. We had a wonderful time!

Yes, we have had an absolute fantastic time! Thanks so much to Ying for everything there at the condo. It is veery well stocked and clean! We loved the grounds and pool area and the location so close to town.
Also, we appreciated the quick replacement of the broken blender with an awesome ninja!! Thanks to you, Bridget and John for your Aloha hospitality!!!!
Many Mahalos!!! 😁🌺

Everything went very smooth!
Great communication from the host!
Right across the street from the beach!
Didn’t use the wonderful grounds ( swimming pool, spa, BBQ, fire pit, etc) as much as we would have liked because we were only there for two days and had a full plate of things to do....but next time!!!

We were only here for a quick 3 nights (and were gone most of the days) so we really didn't get to enjoy the condo complex as much as we wanted to. Regardless the condo was clean and provided everything we needed. Space was perfect for a family of 5 (age 16 and older). The complex was in a perfect location and everyone was VERY nice. We will be back for sure.

A comfortable, convenient space that had all the amenities we needed for a couple of days. Family loved the pool and access to the beach and easy access to Kailua Kona for the last couple of days. The owner and host were super friendly and responsive. The shower curtains were a little smelly and the place was darker than the pictures, and noise travelled easily in the building, but these are relatively minor things. I would have scored this higher if we hadn't been in such stellar places the two weeks prior.
