Fabulous views from a very clean, comfortable, quiet, and updated condo! Great location of complex in Kailua-Kona, and this unit was easy to access. We so enjoyed our stay and will recommend this unit to our family and friends.

Nothing beats the location of this condo, just a short walk to downtown Kona. Condo was very clean and the check in/out process was extremely easy. Tisha is a very responsive host, I had to reach out to her on Thanksgiving day and she responded within a couple minutes!

Outstanding property and thoroughly enjoyable stay, as location to Kailua-Kona and ocean/beach view was stellar. Condo amenities included an extremely well equipped kitchen, convenient laundry area (stacked washer/dryer), and a well designed walk-in shower and bathroom. Decor throughout was visually pleasing, and every room was stocked with an abundance of essentials. Would definitely stay here again!!!

We had a wonderful time in Kauila Kona! The condo was in a great location! Beautiful views of the ocean!! Easy walking to some good restaraunts and shopping. The condo was clean and well stocked!

We just spent 14 days at the Kona Reef in F-26 what a fabulous condo. You can see the ocean from the lani and watch the surfers and dolphins. They have enough dishes to make a meal if you choose to. We used this condo many times and it never disappoints us.

Kona Reef is one of our favorite places to stay in Kona. Location is within walking distance of shopping and places to eat.
This particular condo has a good view of the waves and the ocean. The owners have nicely remodeled the entire unit. It’s open and bright. The kitchen is well stocked.
Everything was as described. Except the view. It changes every night and that keeps me coming back! Enjoy it

We had a great time staying in this lovely condo. Lanai opens to a nice beach view from where you’ll hear the gentle waves. Everything was nice and tidy, well stocked and prepared.
Communication was a breeze too. We loved every part of our stay!

The unit is comfortable the balcony view is beautiful the location on Ali’i drive is close to town and within walking distance. We were surprised by the amount of traffic noise at night on Ali’i Drive, nothing that can be remedied but something to be mindful of. We enjoyed our stay.

What a fantastic unit! Sunsets from the lanai were perfect! And a 10 minute walk into town makes this a great stay! The host took care of a couple of issues so it will be just what we look forward to next time! It could use a deep clean (baseboards, patio, etc) but wasn't that bad! A/C worked (once we figured it out!) Pool and spa were in great shape as was the entire complex. Can't go wrong with this condo!!

Steve and Amber's condo is just absolutely fabulous. It was a home away from home for us. The welcome gifts of chocolates and coffee were a fantastic touch. The condo is perfect, has a perfect view and is in a perfect location. Hopefully we will be able to come back one day. Thank you Steve and Amber.

We loved our stay at Kona Reef Condos! The location was excellent with a short walk to coffee and dinner in the morning, and the beach around the corner. This unit in particular has exceptional views and really enjoyed sitting on the lanai drinking wine and watching the boogie-boarders while the sun set.
The unit is a bit dated but comfortable and had everything we needed. We used the kitchen to cook breakfast each morning and enjoyed eating out on the lanai.
The bed was comfortable and the AC and fan were a lifesaver to keep us cool while we slept.
The unit has various beach chairs, snorkle gear, umbrella and cooler. The umbrella was a life-saver when we went to Hanapa Beach for the day. The cooler was a bit small and "well used" (has lost the zelcro to stay closed) but kept our snacks cold while we traveled the island. We attempted to use the fins to swim at Honl Beach next door (which is quite rocky and water shoes would be good to use), but the back strap was broken.
The condo was easy to find, easy to access, and we had no issues during our stay. It was a big bonus to have the washer/dryer in unit (as compared to staying at a hotel). Oh, and the pool is also a really nice bonus!
All in all, really enjoyed our stay!

Property was clean and set up well for us. We used it as a staging center for our day adventures. It had towels and plenty of beach gear, and the patio was perfect for gazing at the ocean and reading. I appreciated having air conditioning to take the edge off the afternoon sun. The bathroom fan is pretty noisy but that’s a minor inconvenience.

I started here with my husband and two kids, aged 11 and 7. We chose this place because of the pool, free parking, and its proximity to Kona (an easy walk) and the beach (Hon'l Beach, basically next door). They had a well stocked kitchen (dishes, spices, etc) and we also really appreciated the beach items (chairs, cooler, umbrella, fins, goggles). We had a minor maintenance issue/question and they sent someone right out to look at it. Highly recommended, zero complaints.

Had a wonderful 6 night stay at Kona Coast. Had one small issue with the unit smelling a bit of mold, however, after speaking g to the management, they came out and cleaned out the air filter to the AC unit and the problem was resolved. Thank you for the quick action.

The place was a great size and a great location with a beautiful view. However the place is outdated with a couple upgrades. The tv is not a smart tv, so no Netflix, YouTube or steaming of any kind even with mobile device. The place is clean in common places, but is dirty up above, in oven and under chair in living room. They give only 1 ply toilet paper and the bedroom never gets dark. I took pics of everything. This was the third time to the island and have stayed in the same place the last couple times. With this place you are paying for the view. Cleanliness is not a priority which is a deal for me.

For the last 6 years we’ve been coming to Hawaii for Thanksgiving. This year we stayed on the big island in this updated condo. Amazing sunset views, great pool that sits just right next to ocean. The unit has everything we needed. Particularly fond of the deck, shower and kitchen. Plus a brand new washer and dryer. The owners have clearly thought about what travelers might need. There was even a yoga mat and several of coolers for the beach. Would definitely come back.

Remarkable Condo!!! Amazing location and wonderful amenities. Walking distance to shops, dining and beaches. Condo was immaculate with beautiful ocean and sunset views, upgraded appliances and very comfortable. Had everything we needed with added bonus of beach chairs, cooler and accessories. Pool was beautiful with lots of lounge chairs and BBQ area. Property was very well maintained, with ample parking. Would definitely stay again and recommend this unit to anyone wanting to stay on the Big Island.

We loved the location (corner unit, ground floor, right on the ocean). The condo is a short walk from central Kona for coffee, restaurants, bars, and shopping and even closer to places like the Royal Kona. The cupboards are amazingly well-stocked with the basics food wise and for having fun at the beach (towels, chairs, umbrella, sunscreen, etc.). The kitchen and living room space is perfect for four (my wife and I stayed for a week with my parents). The patio furniture is comfy and the shade is nice in the afternoon. The A/C works pretty nicely for escaping the hear. Parking is easy for the rental car, too.

Great place to stay, owner is very friendly, responsive and has everything you need in the condo. This place has views, walking distance to great restaurants and shopping and is very quiet. The morning coffee on the lania was worth it all, we were fortunate to see dolphins and our last day we also had two whales put on a show for everyone!

Great property and location. Had to travel to a different beach as there were homeless people living on the beach next to us. Place was clean and had many amenities to offer. Used the cooler, the chairs and towels when we went out. Not close for snorkeling though.

A very comfortable condo stay. Comfy bed, nicely appointed kitchen and bathroom, convenient pullout sofabed. We cooked over half of hour meals during our stay. Lanai looks directly out at a November sunset, absolutely stunning location. Close to the pool area and bbq grills. You will get serenaded by resident conch shell blowers at sunset FYI :)

This was a return stay at a lovely property. Our primary goal in booking a condo is ocean access and this property has a wonderful beach within walking distance. Second goal is a condo that is clean and comfortable. This condo is spotless! Incredible view, very quiet, easy parking, easy walk to town. And we VERY MUCH appreciated the beach chairs! Thank you for a lovely weekend!

Great location. Walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Everything in condo you could possibly need for a short term stay. Permanent residents were friendly and welcoming. Elevator doesnt go to level of condo. Must have a key to get in and out of pool area which is the accessible route to condo so one of you need to be able to do a few steps to get into the unit and retrieve the pool keys. Absolutely loved sitting on the patio to watch the waves and sunsets. Residents blew into conches at sunset

The view from the lanai was so beautiful, we never wanted to leave! We really appreciated the comfy lounge chairs and made good use of them watching the dolphins and surfers all day long. Beds were extremely comfortable and the unit has all you would need for a trip to the beach to preparing meals in the fully stocked kitchen. Yes, the unit has not been updated but everything was in excellent repair and very clean and and comfortable and that is all that mattered to us! As amazing as this unit was the best part of this rental were the owners Jim and Nancy. Their communication with us was the best we have ever encountered in all our years of renting. Their obvious dedication to ensuring our stay was perfect was so appreciated and we loved the mid stay information email we received from them-so fun! Thank you for an awesome stay, we will be back!
