There are not that many sandy beaches in Kona. This is literally next to one of the best. This condo is on the water and is one of the best locations you will ever find. Its not new but well kept. Its clean and nice and well equipped. The added on AC was a pit of a struggle as it was very hot and humid(Hawaii), I dont slept well when hot, but when I channeled the fan from the ac onto my sleeping area I was fine. My only complaint is I wish It held 2 adults and 2 small children but otherwise its amazing.
