Have stayed at this properly several times before but not in this particular unit. Ground floor convenient for use of pool, shoreline relaxation, and proximity to bbq. Whoops , forgot to mention sunsets. Although there wasn’t air conditioning, unit had 3 overhead fans, and a portable oscillating fan that kept condo very comfortable. Appreciated extra large side by side refrigerator/ freezer. Well appointed furniture and tasteful touches. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

We really enjoyed this property. Very clean and well kept. A couple of considerations however for those with mobility issues, this is a third floor unit with no elevator access. I have a bad knee and by the end of the trip my knee was shot from all the walking and sightseeing, so the stairs were a bit of a pain point for me. Also, the unit is beautiful and we really enjoyed the view from the lanai, but the windows for the bedroom are louvered windows and do let quite a bit of sound in from outside, so if you're a light sleeper, I recommend running white noise on your phone or running the fan on a higher setting. The beach chairs in the closet, and the cooler that was available made our stay a lot easier to plan without having to worry about renting or purchasing things we would need to leave behind. Also want to add that Knutson and Associates was fantastic to work with, and provided such clear instructions for making our stay as worry free as possible. They also provided ample communication to ensure our needs were met.

We have been in the same complex 2 years ago and really loved the apartment! The communication with the owners was fast and seem less and the apartment had just everything we needed… perfect location!

Our stay was very nice. A few suggestions -
The shower head and 1/2 shower door was different. The floors were always wet and difficult to get a 'good' shower. Strange not to have a bathroom fan.
Additional TV Instructions, other than local TV, would have been helpful.
Washer/Dryer instructions would have been helpful. Strange that it would take 3 hours to do one load. Not sure about the hole behind the washer/dryer, but we did end up with one cockroach.
Instructions for the dishwasher would have also been helpful. We handwashed everything and never needed the dishwasher. It was at your request to run it.
The homeless encampment was a bit uncomfortable at first but we learned to deal with it.
Very disappointed that there was not a recycling location on the premises.
ALL in all D1 was wonderful and we would rent it again.

The property is very well stocked with various items needed and the owners respond promptly. However, the condo was just barely clean; the shower had sand and hair in it, the baseboards look like they’ve never been cleaned, the floors will turn your feet black, the light fixtures have layers of dust. It’s a great deal for the price but if you’re looking for clean, this isn’t your spot.

My husband treated me to week-long stay for my birthday. It was wonderful! The pride of ownership is obvious as the condo is beautifully updated and was as depicted in the photos. We especially enjoyed the sunsets while grilling next to the shore. The location is perfect and there is a bus stop next door if you don't feel like walking (although we walked often, the bus is free and we took it from the airport). The only problem we had was that we had to go home. We plan to stay for a longer period next time.

My family and I loved staying at Kona Isla C38! I looked for several weeks for a beautiful rental and am so glad I chose this rental. Knutson staff were extremely professional, prompt, and helpful with all my questions. The rental was beautiful and clean with all the amenities we needed. We only needed to bring our pick of groceries! The additional mini fridge on the balcony was great for keeping our drinks cold while we enjoyed the gorgeous view of the water and sunsets from our balcony lanai. The beds were very comfortable, the space was roomy with a classy and comfy design throughout. The shower also had nice pressure and lots of hot water.The air-conditioning worked well as did the fans. It took me 30 years to return to Hawaii and this place was a perfect location to spend a very relaxing month. The grounds were well kept up with a very nice pool area in addition to a sandy area under palm trees right next to the water where I could sit in a chair and watch the sunset. The outside grill area was clean and easy to use with tables to eat at as well. The manager on site was very pleasant and helpful. Having a designated parking spot was also a plus because we could come and go without worry about finding parking when we returned. My whole family loved staying here!

The view, sunsets and location can't be beat. Perfect size for two guests. Only 2 things that need improvement and it would be perfect. The bath towels need improvement - they are very worn and stained. The bedroom is too hot. The A/C in the unit is located in the living room and cool air does not reach the bedroom which is located in the back of the unit. The bedroom needs a portable A/C - fans do not keep it cool enough.

Had all our "checklist" items except a dishwasher. Cozy condo on the ground level. Easy access to the community's pool. The beachfront has plenty of seating for sunning, shade for spending a quiet time reading, and grills which we utilized for our own 'restaurant' made meals. We recommend this rental. This condo is in an older complex (Kona Isle) but had a remodeled kitchen, bathroom and nice tile floors. Condo has AC and plenty of fans. We appreciated the hosts' quick responses when we had questions. John and Cheryl, Seattle

Patiently answered my calls before renting, great at communicating about rental before arriving, checked in several times to ensure all was good while at unit, and promptly and professionally handled a couple issues. Would totally rent through them again. Mahalo for a wonderful vacation!

We loved our 6 nights at this special spot. We arrived very late so waking up the next morning was a beautiful welcome. Very quiet small complex which is exactly what we were looking for as we needed to decompress from our work schedule.
The unit is great, every we needed and then some and the bonus of having a/c was a great way to live comfortably during our visit.
We would come back and stay again on our next visit.
Can't go wrong with this space and location.
Dream goals were met and appreciated.

We didn’t spend a lot of time at the condo but it was a great location to return to each night. Condo was exactly as described. It was only myself and another adult. The condo sleeps 4 people. I probably wouldn’t stay here with my kids as there are quiet hours and children are only allowed to play on specific areas of the property. I loved that there were lots of extras! Beach chairs, coolers, umbrellas etc. Kitchen also had everything we needed. Betty and Mike take a lot of pride in their property and it shows. They were great about answering all our questions as they came up. Condo is close to restaurants/food trucks. Beaches are within mins depending on what kind you are looking for. Overall it was a really great experience and I would recommend staying here and I would stay here again myself!

This was a great spot to stay in the Kona area. Minutes from shopping and restaurants and a great home base to explore the island. The condo had everything you would need provided from towels, kitchen suppliers, and tons of beach gear (coolers, snorkels, umbrellas, and chairs). The grounds were great right on the ocean with a swimming pool. Access to beach front to explore the lava rock tide pools and access to the saltwater pool. We will be back when we return to Kona.

The location was great and the property well kept. We enjoyed sitting on the Lanai every night watching the sun set. The sound of the ocean crashing against the rocks was so relaxing. We truly enjoyed our stay. The only disappointment was there are no curtains across the sliding glass doors. This took away from the privacy as people were able to see in during all times of the day.

The owner has snorkel gear, an ice chest and beach chairs also provided if you choose to use them. We felt the pictures provided are an accurate representation of their condo.
We loved having coffee & breakfast on the lanai everyday followed by happy hour in the evenings.
