This was in a great location right across the street from the Magic Sands beach, which we love and was a great home base for us.
The property has some really cool amenities. Pool + hot tub area is nice, outdoor pool table, nice gas grills, tennis courts and a sauna if the Kona heat isn’t enough for you. There were COVID considerations as of May 19, but they were fair and it didn’t seem that anyone was prevented from enjoying the amenities.
The unit is fine. Not modern/luxe, but definitely not missing any single thing we needed and everything was in good condition.
It was my wife, our 5 month old and myself and we had plenty of space. Our daughter slept in a crib we put into the room with 2 beds and my wife and I slept in the master which was comfortable. Worth noting the laundry is in the master bathroom, and is loud, so wouldn’t run at night. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances to make just about anything you want. We made and puréed all our babies food and cooked meals for ourselves.
The one thing about the place I was a little underwhelmed with was the balcony. It actually was very pleasant for us to eat meals outside and have a view of the hills. But the pictures make it look like it gets sun (it doesn’t at any point of the day, at least in May) and has a small ocean view (it’s not situated for an ocean view without leaning over). Normally, with such amazing access to the beach, I would not care about this. But in our case, our daughter’s nap schedule kept us in the condo more often than we would have been before she was born and there is just no way to enjoy the Kona sun while at the condo itself. If you’re someone who is able to go down to the beach or pool at will, probably not an issue, but if you’re someone who needs to be at the condo for work, kids, etc just know it’s not a patio for sun.
Parking was easy and close to the elevator up to the 3rd floor.
I’d stay here again, though at the price we got it, might look around to see what else is out there as well.
