We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this lovely condo. The pictures don't reflect the condo at all, it has been recently upgraded by the owner with wooden floors, updated furniture and a flat screen TV. When we arrived, the condo was clean and everything was ready for our stay. The lanai of the condo has garden views with peek-a-boo view of the pool and the ocean. There were many friendly Hawaiian geckos on the palm trees in front of the lanai, entertaining us and our three-year-old every morning with their antics. The condo itself has been stocked thoughtfully by the owner to have everything that you will need for your stay - sugar, oil and spices in the kitchen, board games, movies and puzzles, beach towels, beach chairs, mats, beach and regular umbrellas, snorkel masks and even a boogie board. We've traveled all over the islands and stayed at many different condos and this is the first time when we didn't need to buy anything beach or house-related for our stay. Alii Villas are composed of both holiday renters and permanent residents. The grounds are very well-kept and all the residents we met were very friendly. Quiet hours are enforced from 10pm to 8am, and we really enjoyed that because it meant that our 3-year-old was sleeping in peace and silence. The condos are made of concrete, so the only time we heard our neighbors during the day was when our windows were open. Each morning a pod of dolphins came to the area in front of the condos and we really enjoyed watching them play! The condo is located 5 min away (by car) from Kona, 10 min away to closest grocery store (Safeway and Walmart) and within easy access of Kuakini highway, bypassing all the Kona and Alii drive traffic. Eric, the owner, was wonderful at responding back and making sure that our stay was pleasant and comfortable. We would recommend this condo to our friends and family in a heartbeat!
