It was really nice to have an AC and big TVs in both the living room and bedroom. The queen bed was very comfortable. The bathroom towels and wash rags were very nice. It was great that they provided beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella, and other stuff. The lanai has a very nice view of the ocean. The condo has ceiling fans in the living room, bedroom, and bathroom. The condo was very clean! We would stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Walking distance to “best of the island“ fish tacos, and dreamy sunsets every night. Centrally located for snorkel adventures and easy access to stores and restaurants. The kitchen had everything we needed and more.

The view is stunning. You can hear the waves while you sleep, it’s so peaceful. You can see dolphins in the distance. The sunsets are indescribable. All the decor was intentional and beautiful. Everything you need was provided. Loved the kitchen, clean and stocked with appliances. Check in was very easy, and communication was great. One of the best Vrbo experiences I ever had. Mahalo!

Me and my husband spent 10 days in Kona. Our condo had everything we needed, beach supplies, coffee maker, air conditioning, and more. Overall we loved everything about this condo. The patio also had an incredible view of the ocean! 4 stars given on cleanliness due to the fact that a lot of the dishes weren’t fully cleaned - but was not a problem at all!

The condo was fine for our stay. The check-in was painless, and, in fact, we were able to get in slightly ahead of time. The condo is a bit dated, but it is clean, well-kept and quite comfortable. We had one small issue and Daisy was there quickly to take care of it. We certainly would stay there again.

My wife and I had previously stayed at this property about 5 years ago during our first visit to Kona. We had such a great time then that we booked to stay again and we had another great stay. The condo is recently renovated, extremely clean, and provides all the comforts of home, including beach-going supplies. We love that the complex is quiet and gives a more private atmosphere but is still close enough to town so that you can enjoy everything Kona has to offer with only a short drive. Thank you Audri for sharing your slice of paradise! We’re already looking forward to another trip.

This condo delivers the relaxing, tropical, low-key Hawaiian isle experience. The place is updated, clean and comfortable with most amenities. The best part is the oceanfront location with lanai -- looking out to lush grass, palm trees, ocean waves and feeling the sea breeze. Along with the inviting mini beach of lounge chairs in sand, under the trees. The location is fairly ideal for walking or driving into town and exploring other parts of the island. We would stay here again.

Wonderful stay in Kona. Great condo. Only suggested improvement would be the air conditioner. The one in the living area is quite loud and there is none in the bedroom so it got a little hot.

The place is a one bedroom condo with a decent kitchen, balcony and awesome ocean view. Unit is nicely equipped with all you need in the kitchen (except we had to buy a kettle), beach supplies and essentials. My only area of concern was the deck chairs, the cushions are worn out and uncomfortable. The complex pool and BBQ’s are excellent as are the lounge chairs and picnic tables by the water. We will be back.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The absence of AC was in many ways a benefit, as keeping the screen doors open during the day gave us both the view and the sounds of the ocean. Sitting on the lanai for meals or coffee or drinks with the ocean in front of you makes this unit very attractive.

We absolutlely loved this property.
The condo was well equipped and cutely decorated, but we mostly wanted to stay here because of the condo complex itself. Three story, very low key, I think it was just 4 small buildings and all situated so that each unit has a view of the ocean and a LOVELY, quiet beachfront common area. We sat out there quite often and several times organized local fish purchase, drinks or wine to go out at sunset, grill our dinner and relax and watch the amazing ocean and sunsets. There is not a better dining location or ambiance on the island.
We had a few minor issues with the condo that would be expected here on tropical island paradise, which Audri quickly and graciously took care of.
We host a vacation unit here in our hometown of Portland OR and know how challenging things can be to keep everything together, so if you notice anything or need anything, just let Audri know and she will make it right. She is a five-star hostess!
Hope others will enjoy this condo complex and Audri's unit. It is kind of a hidden gem. We plan to be back as soon as we can!

I have mixed feelings after our stay here. We enjoyed our stay overall but we probably wouldn’t stay here again.
The good:
- The view from the lanai is wonderful.
- Nice common areas. The grounds are beautiful and well cared for. The sandy area by the ocean was our favorite
- Good location. Walkable to town if you don’t mind a longer walk.
- The AC works well; with two units the bedroom stayed cool for sleeping.
- Assigned parking.
- Beach towels, chairs, and an umbrella provided.
- Management was very responsive whenever we had an issue.
The not so good:
- The biggest issue was the bugs in the kitchen. While I know bugs are common in Hawaii, this was the first time in any Hawaii rental unit that we’ve ever had an issue. Management did their best to respond but it unfortunately will probably take time to address. We kept all our food sealed and took out trash daily but still had significantly more bugs than we’ve ever had in a Hawaii rental.
- The unit could use a good deep clean. Management sent a cleaning crew back out at our request, but the whole unit really needs to be thoroughly dusted (things like doors and decor), insides of cabinets wiped down, and all the kitchen items gone through to ensure they are actually clean.
- Linens (especially the sheets) are worn out and need to be replaced.
- The kitchen has no consumables - only salt and pepper. No oil of any kind, no spices, no foil (we left some behind).

We really enjoyed our stay here. Oddly, the older spring mattress was incredibly comfortable and I slept like a baby. The pool was fantastic and we loved watching sunset from the private beach. The inside was a bit dated but unless you’re planning on spending your Hawaii vacation inside then it shouldn’t be a bother. Great value for the money and the property management company was easy to work with and very responsive.

This is a great place to stay! The condo is decorated very tropical/Hawaiian and I love it. Everything you could want for cooking is there, dishes, sharp knives, lots of pots and pans. The bed is very comfortable, the shower very cool,
all the added thoughtful, useful touches make it great. I did miss having a dishwasher, hadn’t noticed that in the listing.
Having a washer and dryer in the condo was wonderful. I would be happy to stay here again!

This place had everything we were looking for. The location is great, the place well stocked and you can’t beat the sound of crashing waves and the unobstructed oceanfront view. The complex is quiet, but still very family/kid friendly. The beach chairs and umbrella were great, but wish there had been a small cooler to use. Yes, the place could use a few fixes- a cupboard needed a new hinge, more outlets near the bed to plug in devices, a cheese grater in the kitchen- but these were small issues and easy to work around. I will never understand why people pay the high prices of a resort with all the added fees and crowds when you can have your own slice of heaven like this one.

The grounds are immaculate and exceptionally well maintained. The view from the lanai has to be one of the best, if not, the best location in the complex. We spent much time enjoying our meals and drinks on the lanai. While seeing an occasional whale and the many boats and canoes sailing by.
The unit was clean, comfortable and well maintained. Certainly an enjoyable stay.

This was our third visit to Kona Isle and our second stay in unit A4. We had a wonderful time! We love the ocean front location of the resort, watching whales, enjoying the sunsets and bbq's. The pool is also lovely. The resort has many senior owners and visitors which suited us perfectly! For the most part, it's quiet although you will hear occasional traffic noise along Ali'i drive. There was also intermittent construction noise this time from a residential development across the street. A4 is well equipped and met all our needs. The unit is partially renovated with many welcome updates (no carpet!). The tub/shower could use a bit of TLC. It has a view of the ocean across the lawn from the left side of the lanai which we very much enjoyed. Knutson management was helpful as usual, quickly providing a couple of small items that needed replacing in the unit. We look forward to staying again!

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful place to stay. Being on the ground level was so convenient. Especially because it gave us the most amazing views! . The beachfront area had plenty of tables & seating. We only grilled one night, but it was so special to then enjoy it as the sun was setting. And speaking of sunsets, words can't describe them, you just need to see them for yourself!
We never got a chance to use the pool or the saltwater pool, but many others were taking advantage of them.
There's a little path to the right of the grills and it brings you to a quiet space where you can watch the waves, do yoga, read, etc.
The kitchen space is so immaccuately organized. There is everything you need and it is all neatly stored in the cupboards. There is no dishwasher, but one is NOT needed because there is a huge sink that made washing our dishes so easy.
Another perk is having the washer and dryer right there. I could have packed so much less if I would have thought it out better.
The location is great~ very near lots of restaurants, shops, and beaches. We enjoyed Huggos on the Rocks, Humpy's Big Island Alehouse, and Magic Sands. The views, food, & drinks at all of them were top-notch.
Also it is a central location to travel farther north or south to other popular spots.There was a closet full of beach gear to help us enjoy our stay. I really appreciated the yoga mat, beach chairs, and coolers. These made our visits to other beaches so much more enjoyable.

We felt at home in our unit. We let the ocean breeze flow through to stay comfortable. The A/C works fine but we like the sound and feel of the ocean. Close to everything and a great home base while exploring the island.
