Perfectly centralized spot for the island. We could walk to restaurants and shops with ease. Check in and out was a piece of cake. The place was nice and clean and even had some beach stuff we could use. Overall great experience.
The Kona Ali’i condo is perfectly located with sunset views and Hawaiian plumeria and BBQ aromas!
We were able to walk to dinner each evening and parking was included in our stay!
The building is aging a bit and the unit doesn’t have AC, so be aware if you’re traveling in the hotter months, but the location and responsiveness of the management makes up for those tiny concerns.
We would certainly stay at this location again!
Whilst the property was functional the furniture and general look was very dated.
The mezzanine bedroom was good but no curtains of any note so prepare to not sleep well. The showers were fine but not f you’re 6ft then aren’t high enough on the wall. The pool was good and overall we had a great time on the island
Location in downtown Kona is a choice! Great restaurants and farmers market steps awayWell stocked kitchenware, towels, beach chairs though I think that equipment variesDated but in good repair (sliding doors are sticky but ALL beachfront properties only have smooth doors for the first 6 hours they are installedThe choice location is also its downfall— it’s not quiet, so if you aren’t into hearing town noises, trucks, kids playing soccer next door, it might not be ideal.Didn’t bother me one bit, we had a fabulous time.No a/c but fans work well and nice breeze on lanai (I never use a/c anyway but thought it might be useful info)Communication with managers was smoothEverything went smoothly
We had a wonderful vacation in Hawaii and the condo was perfect! The location is ideal! Just a 5 minute walk to farmer’s market, restaurants, shopping, beaches and more. Communication was clear with regular updates leading up to and throughout the stay! Kitchen was well equipped and bbq area was great! Very clean! Kids loved the loft! We hope to be back soon!
This property was everything that it posted. Great central location for food, views and nightlife. Rooms were very nice and building was very clean. A bit noisy at night if you have little ones due to the restaurants with music nearby but overall was a great stay.
We especially enjoyed the location of the property, close to everything in Kona, and short walking distance to many of the places that we wanted to frequent. The swimming pool area is very nice and not at all over-used. Residents of the facility were generally very friendly.
If you like being in walking distance of restaurants, bars and shops, this is the place for you. We loved the convenience of not having to drive everywhere.
The condo has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Even a view of the ocean.
Nice condo and we enjoyed the location as it was central to many of the restaurants and we walked to dinner every night. The shopping was convenient as well.
Perfect location for heading down to race site. Didn’t need a rental as there are so many food and shopping options near the condo. Fit 6 women comfortably. Great experience.
We were very pleased with the condo. Great location - close to water, restaurants and shops. It was well outfitted with supplies - dishes, linens - even beach toys. The only slight negative was the the washer didn't not work well and the dryer left the contents damp. We were told these are being replaced. Management was responsive to inquiries and very helpful. Would highly recommend this VRBO.
Great location within walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops. There is one designated covered parking spot next to the building.
There is no A/C, but several fans available. The washer and dryer are very small, but worked well.
The property management company is not available by phone or text outside of business hours.
Nice place, great location, excellent views, clean.
Supplies provided very limited. Could use a new coffee maker, dirty and corroded. Hair dryer provided could also use an upgrade. Washer and dryer provide however washer leaked and even after emptying water and cleaned lint trap, dryer still took hours to dry a small load of towels. 1 bathroom no door and 2 have glass see through door, be sure all guests are close friends or family. Overall, would stay again for sure!!
It was perfectly fine, except the upstairs shower has some issue where the hot water is just a trickle, so it is unusable. Luckily, the second bathroom downstairs has a shower, but it is not as convenient.
We had a wonderful stay here, the location is great for downtown access and the property is kept very clean. I would recommend using the standing fans in the loft area as it can get quite warm, but the main floor master suite has a good breeze way through it so it’s comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, we even had a blender so I could make my infant son his own purées! We were also able to arrange with a company to drop off and pick up baby equipment, just use the one recommended by elite properties, it was very easy. The balcony offered beautiful views, perfect for coffee in the mornings and a glass of wine in the evenings. The railings in the loft are spaced wide apart, so for those with mobile young children just be aware if they are in the loft. Otherwise we would definitely stay here again!
This was a great location—plenty of restaurants and stores. Farmer's market was right down the street. Great view of the ocean and the mountains. There was a really good saltwater pool that we swam in every day. The maintenance guy kept a good eye on the property which made us feel safer because there are some homeless people in this area. There was snorkel equipment and boogie boards in the room which was a good treat. The only negative is that some of the electrical appliances such as the fans didn't work and also there was a leak in the shower door which got water all over the floor. Also, it should be noted that most condos in Hawaii do not have A/C and this condo is no exception. It's not a huge deal because the weather is always nice and the rooms are designed to maximize airflow. All in all, I would stay here again
