    Location

    Magic Sands Beach (Laʻaloa Beach Park) is directly across the street and is one of Kona's most popular spots for swimming, snorkeling, and bodyboarding. Downtown Kailua-Kona is just a short drive away, offering oceanfront restaurants, shopping, local markets, and historic sites.

    Magic Sands Beach has an ever-changing shoreline; during calm conditions there is soft white sand, but during strong surf the sand may wash away temporarily revealing lava rock—this natural cycle is why it's called “Magic Sands.”

It's easy access to the beach, we can enjoy nice view from the room and eat/drink at the balcony with sunset. Weekday night, there are too much noisy music on the street, but if you close the windows, no problems.

Beachfront home away from home

We loved our stay and our hosts stocked this condo with everything you could possibly need. They supplied beach toys, chairs & towels, coolers, pharmacy items, etc, etc. The balcony was huge and well furnished, a great spot for morning coffee and nighttime cocktails. Should we be lucky enough to visit the Big Island in the future we’d be happy to stay here again.

A White Sands Treasure

The location was the best in the complex with the beach and the sunset views unobstructed. Parking was great. Some of the kitchen equipment was in need of rehab due to the age of the complex but other amenities were very nice.

Brilliant beach front condo

Only place we saw with a beach just across the road. Alii drive was quite quiet so the road didnt detract from the beautiful location with great sunsets. Had to swim every day and most days had a turtle for company in the water. Big island is a superb place to visit. Only thing was two weeks went by too quick.

Best location possible

Incredible location with beach and sunset view. Magic sands is a beautiful lively beach and only sandy beach in the area. Huge patio was great for enjoying the gorgeous Kailua-Kona weather ( best weather we’ve had on Big Island) and view. Complex had great activities such as pool, BBQ, pool table, etc. Hosts also provided everything needed for day at the beach for 4+ people. This was the perfect place for our family. Wish we were still there.

Great place at decent price

In good location at ok price. Needs updated dishwasher, bathroom facilities and mattresses (on the hard side). Great view of ocean and very clean. We were very pleased about all the extras which included large ice chest, boogie boards, beach towels, beach chairs, shampoo, soap, sunscreen and bug spray. Magic Sands beach really has no beach (mainly rocks) but Kahalu'u beach is very close and Hapuna beach not far away. Would definitely stay there again.

The lanai was A+

We paid extra for this unit compared to our other experiences renting at this condo complex. Having such a large lanai on the 2nd floor overlooking the beach was really the draw but the place does need some work inside to justify that extra cost. Working with the management was easy and they were responsive to our needs.

Happy from Wisconsin

This 2 bedroom condo was perfect for our week stay. It came with Fantastic views with a great location across from a great sandy beach. A short distance from a snorkeling beach. Close to most activities. The condo itself felt like home with ample space, a furnished kitchen, large living room and good bedroom. The showers were great. There was enough space in this condo for everyone to have his/her space. The balcony was huge, again with great views. We are very happy that we stayed here and would recommend this condo to others.

white sands

The location of this property is superb. The shower head in the small bathroom barely yielded a trickle of water. This wasn't an issue for us since there was just the two of us. This would have been an issue with a family.

Great property!

So glad we sprung for this property with a huge, wraparound balcony, facing the ocean on one side! There was a large dining table out on the balcony so we could eat all of our meals while enjoying the sound and view of the ocean. We spent hours out there. The pool at this property was also lovely. The beach is a short 3-5 minute walk across the street. Be advised that in the winter the beach practically disappears. There was very little sand to sit on. But I think that is not the case in the summer. We had a great stay!

Some stairs required

While this building does have an elevator it does not reach all levels. This is a challenge with getting suitcases and groceries to and from the unit. Everything else was as advertised. And we got to experience the Magic Sand. It all disappeared one night. The beach scene was totally entertaining.

Great view

Needs some updating but still nice. Management was great to work with on issues with insects. Very responsive to my request. The lanai was huge and spent time watching the whales and great sunsets. The beach park across the road is nice but no sandy beach to enter the water. Not recommended for small children for swimming. You are on the busy road so can get very noisy from traffic and boom music from pos cars. Should put the money spent on boom equipment to their cars. All in all if you like watching whales this is a nice place.

Ocean waves

You can open your slider to hear the ocean waves and families playing in the beach’s across the street. The sunsets are beautiful. It was clean, well supplied and comfortable. Updated towels, and a smart TV would be our only suggestion. It’s up three floors which is fine for active families. Parking is right next to stairs. Very convenient. Quiet neighbors except the temporary construction for a lovely updated beach park. It did not bother us but it elevates the noise level with the bust street. We were rarely home so it was fine. Great location and near everything around Kona.

Comfortable, beautiful, and perfect for watching the ocean and listening to the waves!

Beautiful well kept, clean condo with an amazing view of the beach from the entire lanai -- a wonderful place for meals and just relaxing to the sound of the waves. If it's a little too warm out, you can still hear the waves from the living room in the lovely AC. Beach chairs, kick boards, snorkel masks, and an umbrella are provided for use as well as all the supplies needed to clean up on the way out. The only minor draw back (and I do mean minor) is it is a very popular beach so it can get pretty loud during the day and some nights. This wasn't a problem for us but for someone looking for complete peace and quiet that may be a deal breaker. Otherwise it was the most incredible place I've ever stayed and I would absolutely stay here again in the future!!

Great location, not the cleanest or updated

Being located across the street from amazing beach with a great view is best thing about this property. This unit was not cleaned thoroughly when we checked in. Prop Mgmt acknowledged my request but never followed thru. This unit is in real need of updating, I’m not sure if stained rusted and worn bathrooms and kitchen can be scrubbed clean to show difference. Mattresses need replacing too. Hard and lumpy. Owners are clearly hands off.

Amazing location and great accommodations

White sands condo 201 did not disappoint. The view from the lanai was our favorite spot both morning and evening. Condo was well equipped with everything you needed including beach towels, chairs, cooler, umbrella and other beach items. All the basics to get started of dish soap, dishwasher tablets, paper towels, laundry pods and toilet paper and hand soap were available. There was a hair dryer but it was not listed. Extras for an extended stay were easy to get at the nearby grocery store. We would definitely stay here again. Lots of sunscreen and other kitchen items like tin foil left from other guests…just like we left for the text group. Only thing we found missing was no baking sheet but had plenty of pans and baking dishes to make it work.
