We were rebooked into this unit due to flooding in our original booking. I appreciated the property manager getting us into a new place without any hassle. The unit itself was fine, however I did feel it was a bit tight for 6 adults. The couple that took the pullout sofa found it too uncomfortable to sleep on and ended up using the blowup mattress with outdoor chair cushions on it. Other than that it was clean, quiet, and I felt safe in the location. I would 100% recommend it, just not for a group of 6.

What a fabulous spot- overlooking the ocean from the lanai- Sleeping to the sound of the waves - short walk to Kona town- what more is there to ask for! We love Ali'i villas and it is now our go to spot when we travel to Kona. Clean, quiet and close to everything. This unit was exceptional, full kitchen, great view and comfortable beds. We will be back!Knutson and Associates were very helpful- got us an early check in and answered all our questions in a timely manner! Great hosts

It's a nice place. Clean, Quiet available. Great View. here's what I didn't like -- I didn't like the 4:00 pm check in time. I get you have to wait for people to get out, but if the unit is available earlier is should be made available to the client. This is not walking distance if you are over 50 and out shape to anything. Aslo don't call and ask if I would like to buy something in the area. I was there for work, and I know when I'm on vacation I find that annoying as all get out.

Lovely condo, great view, especially in its price range. We kept our binocs on the patio table to watch for ocean life and water activities in the bay! The 2 new room a/c units worked well with fans in temperate, early May. Mgmt company responsive, only minor issue was with WiFi that reset to the password on the box vs. instructions, then worked fine. You’ll need your own Netflix and other services passwords to use them. The condo complex no longer allows you to have keys to access the oceanfront lava rock/water, that is not the condo owners fault. We have done scuba diving from those rocks in the past, so that was very disappointing. Parking very convenient, quiet complex, nice!

We arrived late at night with good instructions on how to park and enter the unit. The unit appeared as it was listed and we loved the view. The next day we noticed bites and thought it might have been ants, however, it was only on my husband. We have never had an issue with bed bugs ever and did not know what the bites were. We spent the night searching and discovering bed beds in our bed and on the couch. We contacted the property manager first thing in the morning-Knutson and Associates-and they sent out pest control. Pest control confimed the unit had bed bugs. We could not stay in the unit and were forced to find alternate accommodations. We were offered a full refund, however, we lost 2 days of our vacation doing doing laundry and purchasing cleaning products to ensure we did not take this issue with us. We cleaned the unit before we left and noticed a lot more bed bugs. It was clear this unit was not checked before we arrived. We sincerley hope this does not happen to anyone else. It is a horrible way to spend your vacation and we are extremely disappointed. The owner has hired a property management firm called Knutson and Associates to manage the unit, however, they did not maintain the property. GROSS !! We were disappointed in how were we treated and how they managed the situation.

The location was great and had a nice view. Need better instructions on where to take the trash because the dumpster is hidden in a garage. We enjoyed our stay.

What a wonderful location with view of Kailua Bay, close to shopping and beaches. Lovely pool. The condo is comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, large lanai where we enjoyed eating meals and watching sunsets. I would definitely rebook this place.

Overall, the place was conveniently located for us. Had a nice evening view. Amenities were nice. Didn't tell us there was snorkeling equipment and a boogie board in the spare room closet. We didn't find them until the last day. Would have been nice to know up front. We were gone most of the day every day and mainly used the unit for relaxation at end of the day and to sleep. You are expected to clean the pots, glasses, plates etc before you leave and to empty the trash. Caution: some of the plates, pots, and silverware were not clean, but had been put away when we arrived. Also be aware that, as the photo shows, the pool for the neighboring property is right outside the room. Overall, the people using the pool were quiet, but there was definitely no privacy on the lanai when people were in the pool.

The unit is nicely appointed, clean, and comfortable and as presented in the pictures. Excellent location, 1 mile to Kona town. Knutson & Associates was very good to work with and very responsive by phone, text and email. They also check in to see how your stay and the unit is upon arrival. Great experience.

Clean and well located apartment. Nice view. Well equipped apartment. On the other hand, the furniture on the terrace deserves to be replaced with deckchairs and chairs of questionable cleanliness. To replace. Provide more light on the terrace.

The unit was clean and well stocked. Comfortable and we’ll layer out. The balcony was great for eating and relaxing, though the neighbors pool is near the balcony and could get noisy…fyi.
