Great place to stay, enjoyed the pool, and listening to the waves crash from the lanai. We even saw some whales off the coast, I would happily book this rental again. Only minor issue was there was a car stored in the designated parking spot that wasn't communicated beforehand, but wasn't an issue as there were amble visitor parking spots.

The location was great, beautiful view. A short walk to the farmers market was awesome. The condo was clean and in good shape. Most everything we needed was supplied, at least a starter bit. The beach chairs, umbrellas, and snorkel gear were a nice surprise. We had a whistling sound the first 2 nights that we couldn't pin point that kept waking us up but maintenance came and fixed it and were very nice. Poop in the pool made our last night a bummer but we just shifted our family BBQ to a different location instead.

This unit was super clean and had a gorgeous ground level view of the ocean. Everyone here was friendly and again it was really clean. We could have used more garbage bags since you are required to take out your own trash. Also the TV is older and the Roku was pretty slow in working and the tv is 32”. Not big enough for enjoying a movie with a lot of family. However I would 100% stay here again. Very convenient location

We loved staying in this condo. It was clean and comfortable and we wouldn’t change a thing. We traveled with two other families and ours was the nicest condo. Enjoyed the back patio with the sound of the surf. I’m a light sleeper and never had issues with sounds from other units. The hosts were professional and provided everything we needed. The gift bags were a nice touch. We highly recommend this unit. We did wish we could take longer walks on the beach but the landscape wasn’t conducive to that without driving elsewhere. Our favorite thing to do in the area was snorkeling at Kealakekua.

The cleanliness was amazing. You could eat off the floors. The decorations and conditions of the condo were fantastic. In fact, we loved the hula lamp so much we ended up tracking down the artist who lives in the mountains above Kona and buying one of his unique bronze sculpture lamps. The location was awesome. Great sunsets every night. Noise from the surf was relaxing and put you to sleep. The amenities of the club were also more than we expected. Our grandkids loved the pool. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We have stayed several times in the Condos just a few feet away from the Pacific Ocean in the Surf and Racquet Club. Truly a great experience. As we've gotten older, we desire to be on the ground floor and thus the views are not quite as good as those on the second and third floors, but still the views are very good -- especially if you walk or move chairs just a few feet up the berm and towards the ocean.

We enjoyed our stay here. Furniture was comfortable and condo was roomy. It was nice to have a washer/dryer in condo too. There were many amenities at the complex for you to enjoy and it was gated. View was good, but in hindsight I would have looked for a condo on 2nd floor or above. There is a small hill and hedges between the lanai and ocean, so when sitting on lanai, there is not much of an ocean view if watching the wave action is what you want. We liked the location because it was away from the busy part of Kona, but close enough to drive, park and enjoy the restaurants and shopping in that area. Overall we enjoyed the condo and all it offered and would recommend for your stay in Kona.

The place was tidy and comfortable. You can hear everything outside at night :( there are missing louvers on the glass front windows. There are not black out curtains in any of the bedrooms and the curtains that are there do not close all the way. There is a pathway behind the condo (main bedroom side) and the curtains are see through and don't close so you don't have privacy for changing clothes. There are bright street lamps outside that shine into the windows. The sandy beach that is mentioned is not really a beach. Beautiful oceanfront view.
Good things: VERY close to the most amazing shallow reef, GREAT SNORKELING FOR KIDS. It's quiet for the most part. It's clean and the beds are comfortable. The couches are clean and comfortable :)
We would stay again if they remedied the curtain situation.

We just completed our stay at the Kona Surf and Racquet Club and really enjoyed this unit. Unit was clean upon arrival, everything was in working order and was well stocked for our stay including beach and snorkel stuff. The location was perfect for us, breath taking views being ocean front was a must for our stay. We enjoyed most sunsets just right out front. We also appreciated the AC, it does get warm in the afternoons and the AC was a plus. Location of the complex is good, close to a shopping center and a short drive into the downtown Kona area for dining etc. Check in and out was easy, communication with the management company was good. Would definitely stay here again, the oceanfront location was beautiful.

The property was great for my wife and I and our 2 year old. Our only issue was that the blinds needed repairing so our first night was difficult for our little one to sleep thoroughly without darkness. The property management was very helpful and had someone come out to fix they blinds the next day.

We selected this property because we wanted the bedroom and living room to open up to the ocean - we were not disappointed. The place was great and you fall asleep and wake up to the sounds of the waves just below the property. The room has been updated and is well cared for. We were more than happy and intend to book this room again.

I don't think this condo should be rented while a loud remodel is going on next door, and plumbing pipes had been excavated and were in plain sight at the entrance. We were out almost all day, every day, so the inconvenience was minimized. The bathrooms are very dated and it is difficult to make them appear clean when grout and enamel is so old and deteriorated. Kitchen and supplies were adequate.

We got here and read the visitor manual, it indicated that we needed a parking pass so we tried to call the property manager, he did not pick up. Then we emailed him and he got back to us two days later saying that a parking pass was not required. No harm no foul…

The condo overall was great. Location was great. Ground floor, no stairs to climb. Even though it has no AC the property had enough overhead fans and floor fans to keep the property comfortable. There are a few maintenance issues that need to be addressed however the property manager was able to take care of that.
One thing I did see was this was the first time in Hawaii after many of the covid restrictions had been lifted and we found that the condo had very in the ways of smaller supplies. For example, no condiments like salt, pepper., catsup, mustard, etc.. Pre Covid all the properties I had used through VRBO had those available. Not that we minded having to purchase those, it would have been nice to know about this before we got to the condo. We always stop at a store prior to getting to the condo to pick up other food and essentials..
All in all, a great place to stay. I would recommend this unit to anyone.
PS: The sunsets over the ocean were spectacular.

The Kona Surf and Racquet club is a beautiful and convenient place to stay. Ive stayed at this location (not this condo) several times and I love this location!!! With that said the condo stated it was renovated, but I found it had several areas untouched. The master bathroom needs work, at least a new sink, and counter, wall needs to be finished by washer dryer where they did some work and just left it open to the studs. Didn't even have a stopper in sink, and when you used it, all you could smell is sewage.
The primary bedroom was ok, bed was very comfortable. The second bedroom was ok, but the management company got a hold of me the 2nd day in, stating that they wanted to send someone out to replace the TV. Guess it didn't work. So, they used my vacation time that I booked the condo, to have someone come in, measure, and go buy the TV. Then the next day, use my time again to deliver it to the room. Excuse me....when I am on vacation, and paying for the room, that is not the time I want maintenance activities to happen!!! Unless it is emergent, then schedule these things in between rentings!!! The only good thing about it was they got rid of this super nasty old fan...rusted piece of crap that should have been replaced ions ago. They had it sitting in the livingroom. So, they did bring a new fan in, after I complained. I figured since they were coming anyway, they needed to get rid of that.
The kitchen was renovated. It did have a good assortment of utensils, plates, pots and pans. It did have a coffee machine and grinder which was all great. Just FYI, absolutely no condiments...not even salt and pepper, so prepare to grab those.
Dinning room wasn't too great, couldn't get the light to work, also the table was too high, or chairs to low...I felt like a little kid eating. Living room had nice furniture, but one of the biggest disappointments was the view while sitting in the Livingroom. Directly out the lanai door is a grass incline with a short hedge on top. So, while sitting, you can't see the water, just the grass. If you stand, or sit on the lanai tall bar height table, you can enjoy the view...which by the way is breath taking! Thank God for the amazing ocean sounds, and crashing of waves, even if you couldn't see the water, you could hear it! That is if the kids in the apartment above you weren't running around and screaming. Which happened for about 10 days of our 14 day stay.

Everything was fine. I would note for the owner that the installers of the new washer and dryer did not reinstall the small shelf next to the unit. Also the insect repellent was necessary as there were what appeared to be roaches on the patio at bottom of the sliding door. Excellent unit and will most likely want to come again soon.

My friend and I had a lovely week at Keauhou Kona Surf and Racquet Club. The unit was spacious and two bedrooms/two baths and an updated kitchen. The unit was clean, with a well appointed kitchen with plenty of dishes, silverware and cooking utensils. The unit does not have air conditioning, but has plenty of overhead and stand up fans. The bathrooms were functional, but the master bath is in desperate need of an update. The sink is rusted and there is no drain stopper; the shower has mold at the bottom. Supplies were sparse; we ended up sharing the last roll of TP as only 2 extra rolls were left in the unit. The bath towels are very old and worn out. The master bed was comfortable; the twin beds in front bedroom were extremely uncomfortable so my friend slept on the sofa bed after a few nights. The complex swimming pool was delightful, water was very refreshing and there were plenty of chaise lounges.

The sink in master bath was rusty with no plug. Lots of mold and mildew in and around shower. The washing machine was rusted out. The TV was difficult to figure out. Tried to get help with blinds & was told by the manager that the problem was known but had not been able to fix. So why was it rented? The view was disappointing with a knoll obstructing everything but the horizon.

We had 9 days on the big island and our rental was excellent. The location was great and the amenities were everything we could want. The pool and tennis courts were perfect - quiet and leisurely.We were able to get to the market easily and the downtown Kona area was a healthy 3 miles away just enough to keep us away from the noise and the crush of people but near enough to get to when we wanted to. Snorkeling is excellent at the nearby beach where you can lay in the sun or sit in the shade of a palm tree. The perfect place to stay to relax and to have activities to make your big island experience wonderful!!!!

We like this location a lot, but the building is older and showing its age. You hear the people upstairs when they walk around. Our main complaint is that management company said they would get tennis racquets for the unit and then never did. The place has 3 courts and no way to use them. Also, the 2 boogie boards were little and one was broken. The king-sized mattress is very soft. We did appreciate the tile floors in the condo, rather than carpet considering that the ocean is about 30 feet from the condo. The golf course is closed for renovating so we could use it for running in the morning which was a nice perk (golfers may be disappointed.)

Ample space for the whole family, close to everything you will need but away from the bustle if you are looking for a retreat. Didn't want for anything in the kitchen, and included beach stuff!!! Arrived on a day a local farmers market was close by, there are great beaches nearby and it's a good launching pad to check out the other side of the island, be aware if you are travelling with young ones, it's a long drive to the other side. Thank you it was a brilliant holiday enhanced by great accommodation.

Small birds came in the morning and and some cats during the night time came by to see us. We left the screen doors open since no AC which helped me get acclimated for the race. We listen to the waves pound the rocks at night. Added bonus was the bin of snorkeling equipment that was used at the beach not far from the condo. Some minor electrical problems during our stay. We LOVED it!

Overall, we had a very nice experience. There were a couple of relatively minor issues which kept this from being an all-around five-star vacation. First, we prefer a ground-floor location for ease of access to the grassy area - but, unfortunately, had VERY noisy upstairs neighbors. They had a baby which they let cry for 30 minutes at a time all through the night! It would be nice not to have to trade off access for sleep! We also had to contact the property manager to get a pool key and have a repair made which was reported prior to our arrival. They were very responsive, but it would have been nice for these items to have been taken care of without our needing to call. This is our second visit to KKSR 2103, and we will definitely be back again.

The main floor location extended our space and the lanai was large with two distinct spaces, one for dining, one for lounging. We very much enjoyed listening to the surf at night and being right on the ocean. The complex is nicely landscaped but the pool is small and ordinary. We had to wait a couple of times to use the shared BBQ. Overall, we liked this condo.

My husband and I spent 10 days in Kona at the Surf and Racquet Club. It was fabulous. The condo unit was ground level so you could walk out and see the ocean a few feet away and listen to the waves crashing against the rocks all night. We BBQ'd, swam in the pool and watched tennis. We don't play tennis but there plenty of people that did. Also noticed that lessons were available. Great eating places within walking distance. Marina for rentals and of course a 10 minute walk to the snorkling beach. We will be back some day. We are actualy from West Kelowna. Spelling error.
