The condo is well located, albait not exactly across the street from Holn beach, 4 minutes walk away, but still great. Very clean large rooms, lots of fans to help with the fact there is no A/C, but we were aware and accepted the fact before renting. Very close to the Hot Spots in Kona. Well equipped en the kitchen and comfortable beds and sheets. The only complaint, even though we were not there for that is the TV service has no Live TV. If you like old shows…

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying in Wayne's beautiful condo, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. The condo itself was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with all the amenities one could need for a comfortable stay.
One of the highlights was the stunning view of the ocean from the balcony. Waking up to the sight and sound of the waves every morning was truly magical. The sunsets were equally breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing evening.
The location was another major plus. Just a few blocks from downtown, it was incredibly convenient to explore the local shops, restaurants, and attractions. Despite being so close to the hustle and bustle, the condo was in a quiet and peaceful area, offering the best of both worlds.
Wayne is wonderful, always responsive and helpful whenever we had any questions or needed assistance. His hospitality made us feel right at home.
Overall, this condo rental exceeded all our expectations. It was the perfect home away from home, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Hawaii.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a great stay. Pros: comfortable beds, great airflow, well shaded lanai (until about 2pm). The pool/hot tub are nice and a close walk, but not so close we could hear if kids were having a good time in it. Short walk to Ali'i shops & restaurants. Cons: the kitchen was fine, but not great for lots of cooking. The walk to the pool & grills is down a hill, so that could be uncomfortable if you have mobility issues (or are carrying lots of food).

We like the location, the condo, the condo complex. Kitchen was well stocked and had pretty much everything we needed.
Nice to have access to some pool/swimming equipment in the garage.
Some light bulbs were out when we visited and it took a while to get replacements.
Other than that, everything was good.

My family had a wonderful stay here and are already planning a return trip. The beds were very comfortable, and the condo is in great condition. It’s very close to town and we walked to town for dinner and drinks on several nights. There is a great view of the ocean from the balcony. The owner is very friendly and responds quickly to any questions.

This condo is so convenient to downtown Kona. Having two bedrooms and baths as well as full size washer and dryer made it very comfortable for our family. The view of sunsets from the back deck was amazing, and the pool is lovely. We really enjoyed our stay here!

The check in process was easy, and the space was a great size. They provided equipment for the beach which was super convenient. They had chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler. Kitchen was stocked but we didn’t really cook. They have an AC in the living room and in the main room. Recommend for families or small groups.

We were very pleased with the remolded property J4. We loved the hardwood and tile flooring. It was easy to keep clean ( not a fan of carpet). Didn't require constant vacuuming. Best sunsets from upstair lanai ever, many photos. Thank you for letting us use your home.

Property Manager was awesome... workers who managed the grounds were not too friendly and accommodating. Phone number to call for overnight parking is deceiving.
July 2024
We enjoyed our stay and it was only a 10-15-minute walk to downtown Kona. It would have been good to know that the Hele On shuttle was free, but we probably would have walked anyway because there was construction elsewhere on the route that made stop times unpredictable. The unit was clean and we enjoyed having the pool. It was a bit hot a couple nights, but otherwise had a good time and saved a little money by making a few meals in the kitchen. Of course we ate out too. It was a great vacation.

Only issue was the ac in the unit was freezing in two areas because we had to cool the two units locations constantly due to the air flow to master and back bedroom stayed very warm but the unit had alot of box fans we set up to move the air to those rooms which made it comfortable to sleep

A great location, in walking distance to town, beautiful grounds, fabulous swimming pool! The condo was well equipped, especially the kitchen….spices, condiments, baking products, coffee, etc.
Prompt and helpful communication with the host.

Central location on Ali'i Drive - close to restaurants, shops, beaches, markets etc. Great pool and facilities. Met some lovely people too.Knutson & Associates were very helpful and responded to enquiries promptly. The fruit basket and flowers were a welcome surprise!The condo was well stocked and comfortably laid out. The bedrooms both had memory foam mattresses and the sofa bed was surprisingly very comfortable! Lots of pillows to choose from too.We had a late flight and were able to arrange a late checkout - huge stress reliever.Definitely recommend and would happily stay again.

This property was well equipped and the property managers did an excellent job of making our stay comfortable. Very responsive even on weekends and after hours. We will definitely be back next year! Great place to stay on Alii but far enough back not to have the noise.

The place is clean and quite large for a place in Hawaii. I did not notice when I booked that there was no air conditioning. Except for the first night, when it was unbearably hot, that wasn't a problem. But I will be careful to check in the future for air conditioning. Also, you should know that one of the bedroom windows opens almost directly onto a fairly busy street. That's why I gave four stars for location and neighborhood.

Two MAJOR drawbacks:
1. The two wall air conditioning units are on a 60 - minute timer. Which is fine during the day (especially if you spend most of your daytime out of the condo), but makes for awful nights of sleep when you wake up every hour bc of the heat!!!
2. The hallway light that you need on anytime you do laundry is on a 15ish second timer, for some unknown reason. So you keep having to stop loading/unloading washer/dryer in order to put the light back on.
Everything else was fine, but had I known about the air-conditioning being on a 60-min timer, I would have booked elsewhere so my sleep wouldn't have been interrupted every hour!

We had a wonderful time in this spacious condo and appreciated all of the amenities. We loved the wonderful master suite including a private deck, and all of the other spaces that make this feel so roomy and relaxing. The lanai is a great place to sit and relax, and the complex is very quiet and private. We love the pool area, as well as the convenience to shopping and restaurants; a beautiful spot to enjoy all that the island has to offer as a tropical getaway. Tracy was very responsive and helpful whenever we had questions or small issues…a great vacation spot!

The condo itself needs some upkeep. Our refrigerator broke on Christmas Eve. We did get a replacement that set in our dining room area. The owners made a decision to try to fix instead of replacing. We were stuck with a dining/living room refrigerator for the remainder if our vacation. 3 weeks.
We had knives and pots/pans that were rusted out. Two of the dining room chairs had big tips in them. But Kona was wonderful.

One complaint is the bedroom off the living room couldn’t get an air flow. Was very warm and had to go purchase a fan.
First visit on any of the islands that had no recyclable containers on the property. We did our best to recycle on our own.
Very comfortable condo.

The property was exactly as expected. Clean, well appointed, easy to navigate check in, etc. We really appreciated the access to the beach umbrella and chairs! As the other readers stated the property was hot. We managed to get the fans sorted out and by day two it cooled off enough for us to rest well at night. Would still appreciate an AC.

I loved the place, it was 100% safe, reachable, clean, no disturbance, with wifi excellent. I loved the landline which assisted me to order supper. Some little advise: install air conditioner, it will add value.

This property is phenomenal. Roomy, allowing you to stretch out, view the ocean on the lanai all day whether upstairs or downstairs. Very neatly appointed, full kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Close to all amenities. I'd stay again in a heartbeat.
