Nice quiet location. Pool was OK. Lots of bugs so hard to swim. Didn't see anyone ever clean it. Living room was very warm and hard to sleep on the pull out couch. Overall it was fine.

Big Island Christmas trip 2023

The location of this property is wonderful Kahalu’u. Beach is great for snorkeling and seeing turtles. There are lifeguards on duty too. Wonderful to have an assigned parking spot at the condo. We had everything we needed and shopping and restaurants close by.

We loved the area in which this property is located, and were happy to be there. We also appreciated the deck and the small pool and hot tub, as well as all the scuba diving equipment! The kitchen is tiny, but filled with every possible appliance. The space is a bit worn, and could have used a few more towels; but on the whole a good value.

A perfect holiday condo

Excellent location, property managers and owners were fantastic The condo comes with lots of extra perks like snorkeling equipment, beach chairs, coolers... It is clean and well maintained. The patio made the living area larger and because it was partially shaded, it was perfect for everyone in our group.

Quiet area close to freak snorkeling beach

Great location, super quiet (except for the rooster at 5am) just uphill from a great snorkeling beach. We saw 4 turtles the first morning we snorkeled there. Unit has ceiling fans and ac on the two bedroom windows. It was stuffy when we arrived but it cooked off quickly. We reheated leftovers in the air fry/toaster oven, oil, vinegar and few spices for cooking. If you don't feel like going to crowded Kona to eat there's a nice shopping center and restrants just up the hill. Would stay again.

GREAT Condo, Across from SNORKELING BEACH

We had a great experience. The Condo is old, and furniture and furnishings are dated, but it does the job, and the customer service from the property manager is the main reason I give a high review. Prolly an 8/10. When we arrived, it needed sheets and blankets for the sofa pull out bed and we messaged the property manager, and the next day there was a brand new set for us to use. They also have just about everything you need for the beach, so the only thing we bought at Costco was an umbrella. They had a cooler, beach chairs, and pool noodles to use. We also used the washer and dryer and there were products to use there, too. The beach across the street is not great for playing in the sand, but for snorkeling. Hapuna, Mauna Kea are much better, about 50 minutes up north.

Perfect spot for us

This two bedroom, two bathroom condo was perfect for us. It was in a very good location that was not in the heart of Kailua's busy section of town; and an easy walk across the street to go snorkeling and scoping out the tide pools. We appreciated the supply of snorkeling gear so we didn't have to rent some. We enjoyed the patio that had foliage to block out the traffic. It was a relaxing spot to watch the birds. There was a nice, open living space to hang out, talk, and eat in. I would rent this unit again when in Kona.

Good stay

Pros: Clean unit, extra linens and beach towels provided. Loved the patio. The pool and hot tub were nice, and it was such a short walk to the beach - great for kids to walk to. Cons: The unit directly below us reaked of trash everytime we walked by it (it was no where near the dumpsters though), the microwave doesn't reheat well and needs replaced, and then the master bedroom ceiling fan didn't work because the previous renter took the remote with them (I wish we were told this before check in - maybe they could have given us a different room; I had to call and ask where it was)
