Everything about this condo and the community is just perfect. We stayed here, in this exact condo with Bonnie as our host in 2019, and everything was just as lovely as we remembered it being. We cannot wait to come back.

The property itself was beautiful with sliding glass doors all the way across for spectacular view. And it really is all about the view.
You cannot imagine a more beautiful spot to have coffee in the morning than that back lanai.

Nice time in a fairly central location for day tripping. The flat is on the third floor and even though there are inside air conditioners the bedroom gets fairly warm. It would be nice to have some spices to do some cooking. The place was spotless and very quiet. Had a great vacation.

Well designed unit with newer Island decor—nicely furnished. Very quiet and relaxing, yet conveniently located close to sport courts (pickle Ball/Tennis) swimming pool and Golf—located on 9th fairway. Convenient parking in front of unit. Friendly, courteous, and gracious owner/host. We enjoyed our visit and we certainly would consider coming back for a repeat stay.

Aloha Bonnie! 🌺❤️
We just wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt thanks for an absolutely wonderful honeymoon vacation stay here in Hawaii! Your hospitality made our stay truly unforgettable. From the stunning scenery to the warm aloha spirit, every moment was pure magic. Mahalo for sharing this little slice of paradise with us. We're so grateful for your kindness and can't wait to come back and make more amazing memories ! 🌴❤️

This was an excellent home base for a snorkeling vacation. The two queen beds (one of them a comfortable Murphy bed) make it best for two couples.
Diane, the owner is responsive and helpful. She gave us good information about the area along with complete details for the condo. A lock box system with another keys available made access efficient.
The listing describes two distinct bedrooms. The pictures confused us on the sleeping arrangements. The “living area” is the second bedroom. (Louvered sliders and blinds block light but not sound. This accessory room isn’t a regular bedroom. It was comfortable for the person staying there. The fourth person slept on the sofa which was comfortable as well. She didn’t open it as a sofa bed.)
The condo cools beautifully. Ceiling fans, good window screens, and screen doors provide efficient cross ventilating air flow. Wonderful.
Especially good for snorklers, divers, and swimmers. Lots of hangers, a hook system on the patio, and a drying rack made it easy to dry swim suits, etc. The patio closet held very useful snorkeling gear. We borrowed fins and a mask that fit; we didn’t have to rent extra gear.
The kitchen was also well equipped. Bountiful towels, linens, toilet paper, paper towels and more — the condo was very well stocked.
The lush garden obscures the view of the ocean but we knew it was there. A lovely lime tree provided fresh juice for the papayas from the market.
We had a fabulous vacation.

This place is about 5-10 mins from downtown Kona. It is very convenient to get grocery, etc. from Costco, Walmart, supermarket, etc. Few cruises near by, 5 mins waking. My kids went to Outrigger to watch Manta Ray in the evening. Floor was little sticky when we arrived. We had Tiny bugs (fruit flies?). We were not sure where they came from. Electric kettle was rusted on the bottom and need to be replaced.
Otherwise, this is a wonderful place to stay in Kona.

Great condo. Clean, quiet and the beds were comfy. The on-site manage is great. We only stayed for 4 short days. The kitchen could use some kitchen towels as we were drying the pots/pans with paper towels and a small cooler and umbrella for the beach would be great too. If our stay was longer we definitely would have bought some and left them here. Great place to stay.

The view from the patio is beautiful, the bed is very comfortable, and the condo is clean; these aspects are five stars, and I would rent this property again if there were only two of us to stay in the master bedroom. There are a few issues that make this a four-star property for us. The first and most important is the air conditioning; there is only one portable air conditioner and it’s in the bedroom, so if people need to sleep in the living room area, they must sleep on the Murphy bed or pull-out couch with access to a ceiling fan only; those who say that it cools off at night must not mind being hot at night. Second, is the timer on the air conditioner; the a/c does work well in the bedroom, but it has a four-hour timer, so in the middle of the night we woke up hot and had to reset the timer and then try to go back to sleep. We understand the cost of energy is high in Hawaii, but limiting the renter’s comfort affects enjoyment and this is the main reason for the four-star rating. Again, this property has many great qualities, such as lots of amenities in the condo, being close to the airport, a street fair within walking distance, a nice swimming pool, friendly neighbors, easy parking, and responsive hosts.

We loved this place! The lanai is where we spent 95% of our onsite time, other than sleeping. Lush landscaping and unbeatable sunsets! Also great spot to enjoy morning coffee. Pool is nice, the place is clean, and the beds comfortable. What more could you want?!

Our stay at this VRBO in Hawaii was amazing! The views from the lanai were absolutely gorgeous, with stunning sunsets and a beautiful ocean view that we enjoyed every day. The property was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a great vacation.
Denise, the host, was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. She answered all our questions quickly and made sure everything went smoothly for us.
If you’re looking for a peaceful place with fantastic views and a wonderful host, this is the perfect spot. We can’t wait to come back!

Lovely upgraded condo. The property was beautiful right on the golf course. It would have been nice to have some beach chairs and a small cooler at the property for use. We left a couple for the next guest. Would stay there again.

Although this property is just off busy Alii Drive, you never notice or think about the traffic. Very quiet. So much more peaceful than staying closer to Kailua-Kona, although the town is easily accessible and the condo is in a great location to access other island points of interest.
Trent and Debbie have furnished the condo, including the kitchen, with everything you could think of. The only critique of the kitchen is that many of the bowls and dishes are plasic or otherwise get extremely hot if microwaved. Excellent washer and dryer. Large screen TV's work with your own Netflix account. The unit is spotless and the bed is very comfortable. The lanai has an incredible view, overlooking a superb garden (teeming with flowers and birds), the 9th hole of the Kona golf course, and the ocean. Great place for morning coffee and evening sunsets. The condo complex also has a very nice pool that looks like it has been redone recently and was exquisitely clean when we were there.
Trent was very welcoming and kindly answered questions by email and phone during our stay. This condo was perfect for our stay and we consider it a great value.

The property is a little worn but comfortable with the exception of the deck lounges which are broken and uncomfortable. The kitchen utensils/pans are past their prime. The knives need sharpening. The master bath fan is very noisy.

This was our 5th visit to the Big Island and for the last 3 times we've stayed at this wonderful, ideally located, well stocked & verrry clean condo. You can feel the owners' TLC and their wanting to make visitors as comfortable as possible. Even on the rare gray days, the sunsets are merely fantastic. We're anxious to return again and again.

The apartment was in a very green area, with a beautiful view. Equipment was in good condition although the floor and the kitchenware could have been cleaner. Since this apartment is located next to a golf course, the noise level of the golf course maintenance starts at a very early morning time.

Location is great, a few miles away from the center of Kona. Quiet area for the most part, be aware that the golf course crew starts early. Third floor view is great to see the sunset and just sit and relax. The condo was clean and spacious for us. We recommend and would rent again on a return trip.

The photos really don't do justice to how nice this place is. Modern, but not too modern so you still feel like you're in Hawaii. Very comfortable King bed. Clean white fluffy towels. Plenty of everything for the beach - towels, coolers, chairs and snorkel equipment.
Finding the place and check is in was easy - Eric and Damon gave very detailed instructions.
The kitchen was fully equipped to do all the cooking we wanted and the BBQ was really nice to have. They even supplied small appliances like a rice cooker and crock pot. Basic essentials were also provided like coffee, salt and pepper, cooking oil, etc. The hosts even offered to get a few groceries for us as we were arriving late.
Air conditioning in the bedroom was perfect for sleeping. You don't need it otherwise. The lanai was lovely for watching the sunsets.
The pool was quiet and we enjoyed having a swim to cool off at the end of the day.
Yes, it is on a golf course so you can expect to hear the occasional lawn mower or golfer teeing off early in the morning but that did not bother us at all.
Thank you Eric and Damon for being amazing hosts. We will 100% stay here again next time we visit.

Trent and Debbie’s condo exceeded our expectations. From the condo layout, the cleanliness, the view from the lanai, and the location, we could not have been more pleased. We really enjoyed our morning coffee and evening beverages on the lanai. The view of the sunset over the ocean from the lanai was spectacular on some of the nights. Thank you for sharing your place with us.

Located just South of town. Convenient access off main highway. Top floor, great view. Four-building complex. Large living space including dining and living area. King bedroom and Murphy bed felt like 2nd BR. Overall Clean and well decorated. Attractive outdoor lanai with cooking grill and sink. Completely furnished kitchen and two bathrooms. Also, beach chairs and towels were a great addition. Full laundry was convenient, too.

The condo was stocked with everything we could have needed. Watching the sunsets from the lanai every evening was the best part. Communication with Stan was great and easy. He was very helpful to help us plan our trip and answer any inquiries during our stay.
The listing does mention there is two double sofa beds and one double bed but there are only two double sofa beds. They aren’t the comfiest beds, but it did the trick for our vacation.
We were glad we read the other reviews and brought ear plugs with us… those frogs are REALLY loud.
Overall, we really enjoy staying here, Stan was a pleasure to deal with and we would stay again.

The condo was just the place we were looking for. Simple, yet cozy and comfortable. Just as pictured. The bed was very comfortable and the sunset views were beautiful from the balcony. Not too far from town and close to beaches. My husband and I would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at this condo. The location was just perfect for all the things we did and the setting on the golf course looking out at the ocean was beautiful. We were on the go a lot but found ourselves lingering longer and longer on the lanai with either our morning coffee or evening cocktails. The king size bed was comfortable and there are two full bathrooms in the unit. We have stayed in many VRBO units and we found this one to be exceptionally well stocked. The kitchen has spices, staples, paper towel, plastic wrap and any cooking utensil you might need. It was wonderful to have a washer and dryer in the unit. The pool is on the small size but a real bonus on a hot day. There are lots of windows and fans so we were very comfortable without a/c. We would not hesitate to stay again if we are blessed enough to be able to come back to Hawaii!

Eric and Damon are great hosts and offer a very well-equipped condo. Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, including really nice pots and pans. The washer, dryer, and drying rack on the lanai were very welcome, as were the beach chairs, sunbrella, boogie boards, beach towels, coolers, ice packs…. The Keauhou Shopping Centre is only a few minutes drive away, so very handy for groceries, restaurants and other shops. The pool is great to cool off after a day exploring the island, and usually pretty quiet. We wish we could have stayed longer. Returning to Alaska winter was a rude awakening!! Highly recommend.
