I wanted a place I could walk from into the center of Kona and this is the place. Clean and many extras made available for me and my friends to use. Owners are very responsive and their description is very accurate. If you want to experience all that Kona has to offer you can’t go wrong with this condo. Thank you.

Very nice two bedroom condo. Lots of space.

The condo is situated in a parking lot, and the views from both bedrooms were disappointing. One bedroom looked directly into the parking lot, while the second faced the ramp to the garage. The pool area was just on the other side of the lanai blinds, and it felt like there was zero privacy. You could easily reach out and interact with someone in the pool, and the constant noise from the area was hard to ignore.
Additionally, the condo itself was in need of a thorough cleaning. There was a strong, musty smell throughout, which unfortunately permeated everything we brought inside. Our clothes and hair ended up smelling like the musty odor, which made the stay even more uncomfortable. The beds were small, barely double-sized, and far from comfortable. Only one bedroom had air conditioning, and the rest of the condo was stuffy, which made it hard to relax.
On the positive side, the property manager was very helpful and friendly, which was appreciated. However, despite this, the overall experience left much to be desired. Between the lack of privacy, the unpleasant smell, and the uncomfortable sleeping arrangements, I wouldn't recommend this condo for anyone seeking a peaceful or relaxing stay in Kona.

Hi Joe, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed this one didn’t meet your expectations. After reviewing your feedback, we’d like to share the following:
- The condo is centrally located and designed for convenience, with parking available right outside the building—an increasingly rare and valued amenity in Kona’s busy downtown area.
- While the views and proximity to the pool may not have been what you expected, we do show these features in the property photos so guests can make an informed decision before booking.
- The beds are standard full and queen sizes, as outlined in our listing, and we understand that bed preferences can vary by guest.
- Being close to the ocean, humidity in the area can sometimes cause a musty scent, but we’ll work with the cleaning team to thoroughly inspect the property and ensure freshness for future guests.
We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.
