We had a great time in Hawaii but the highlight was the view from the lanai. We spent hours out there watching the birds, the boogie boarders, the boats and especially the sunsets. The location was a big plus; it was great to be able to walk to the market, shops and restaurants.

Wonderful property, consistent with all the previous reviews. Great location. We appreciated (and used) the abundant snorkel equipment provided. We really enjoyed relaxing on the lanai. We absolutely loved how comfortable the bed was in the master. Would definitely stay here again.

Kona Town

This was my third trip to Kona and this location was fantastic! Great condo with beautiful views from all points. The hosts had all the beach and snorkeling equipment we could need. The kitchen was well stocked and fun to cook in considering the wrap around views. Mornings drinking Kona coffee and watching the surfers, boogie boarders and rowing teams and the sunrises were spectacular along with the sunsets from the lanai!! Will most definately stay here again ! Marianne

Best Unit in the entire building. Hard to see key pad and each touch means a number. We had trouble gettting in first time but learned after not receiving call back from host. The unit was great. We have stayed at this complex before and this unit is the best not only location but updated unit made the stay perfect. Host did help us with making the reservation and overall would love to stay here again.

Lovely spot right by the ocean

So happy we booked this place. It was just right for a spring break getaway with my husband and 16 year old daughter and her friend. We loved sitting on the lanai at all times of day watching the ocean, the surfers, the sunset. Walked steps to the beach next door for morning yoga. Short walk to town for dinner. Our favorite was On the Rocks. Great communication with Bill who was quick to respond and very kind. The place had everything we needed including loads of snorkel gear. Not fancy and just right Miss it already.

Amazing Big Island Stay

Property was perfect for our family of four and our week stay on the Big Island. Location is perfect right next to Honls Beach. We started each morning with yoga on the beach and listening to the waves crashing while enjoying a cup of coffee on the lanai. Our teens loved being able to make the short walk into town and explore the shops of Kailua Kona. Thanks for an amazing stay and we would definitely come back.

The house had everything we needed to include beach chairs, towels, coolers, small amount of dish and laundry soap, and snorkel gear. Check in was super easy and Bill gave great directions.

Gorgeous and relaxing

This property was perfect for our family vacation. It was clean, well appointed and a wonderful location with amazing views. We loved waking up to breakfast watching the waves crash. The location right next to a beach and walkable to Kona restaurants and shopping made for a convenient and fun trip. The pool isn’t huge, but very well kept and perfect for our two elementary aged kids to frolic in. The two bedrooms and two bathrooms of the condo plus beautiful kitchen and eating/living area was perfect. We hope to stay here again in future!

Cute condo, great location

Beautifully remodeled condo, right on the ocean, walking distance to Kona town. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and spices. Really nice beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels, sunscreen, and snorkel gear was provided. We felt like with two couples the condo bedroom situation was a little cramped but we should’ve known that based on the listing. Because this condo feels very small for four adults, we feel we overpaid for this particular condo.

This location is central to just about everything fun to do, and coming back home to it was always a pleasure. Beautifully appointed with everything to make our stay comfortable, a scenic beach next door, the sea and magnificent sunsets right in front of our lanai.

Perfect location

Our view of surfers and the beach made cooking in the beautiful kitchen amazing. We enjoyed our short walk into town to play volleyball, get coffee, and look at shops. On our way back everyday we bought fresh fruit to cut up and enjoy. When we wanted to play around the pool was a great change of pace. When you’re traveling all the way to Hawaii why skimp on the room. All of the shades rolled down over the window to give our sleepy 15 year old enough privacy to sleep.

Beautiful Condo Close to Everything!

Our stay at Bill and Theresa's was just incredible. It is a beautiful unit, exactly as pictured, and it had all the amenities you could think of! For the kitchen there were some leftover spices and other random things in a cupboard, every appliance you would need, and plenty of cups and dishes. The living area was well laid out and the beds were very comfortable. Having two bathrooms was definitely a bonus. However the highlight was definitely the incredible views from the kitchen and living room area. It is a corner unit so to the left you have Honl's beach and right in front is a nice green walking path and the OCEAN. We saw so many whales, even some breaching in really close which was a highlight. We also saw surfers when the surf came up, and we saw a few turtles from shore as well. What a great place to just sit and watch the ocean!The condo is also in an excellent location. Right beside the beach and less than a 10 minute walk to historical Kailua village which has so many shops and restaurants to choose from. You could easily just stay in the condo and walk places for a short trip and not even need to explore the rest of the island. Which, of course you should! but the condo is just that comfy and nice.We had a lovely time and we hope we can stay again. Thanks Bill and Theresa!

Beautifully remodeled and so convenient

Bill was super easy to communicate with - both before and during our stay, when there was an issue with the wifi, which he kindly proactively addressed. The condo is in an older building, but this unit is just absolutely beautifully remodeled - everything in the unit is super nice! The kitchen is amazing, washer dryer is a real bonus, and we felt spoiled having two full bathrooms for our family (teens loved it). We had very full, active days, so didn't spend as much time there as we might have liked, but the location is really perfect - easy walking to tons of local businesses, restaurants and bars, and even a luau, which we did our last night. The parking is also great - in a garage with plenty of spaces, which is such a benefit. The only thing I'd advise people to consider is to look at the pictures- they are totally accurate - and whether you will be comfortable with being right on a popular local beach with lots of people strolling by. We kept some of the shades drawn for this reason (definitely in the bedrooms), but we were certainly able to enjoy the views from the patio and ocean facing windows. Again - this is a personal preference, and others might not care at all. As others have noted, there are bright security lights at night (building wide - not just this condo), but these are right above the patio - not the bedrooms - and it's nice and dark/quiet for good sleep in both bedrooms. We'd love to return and spend more time in the future.
