This condo is at a gated surf and racquet club that was beautiful, serene, and well-maintained. The condo is decorated with beautiful local artwork and had a really nice vibe. We wanted a place south of Kailua-Kona, to make our drive to Hawaii Volcanos National Park shorter. We also went night snorkeling with the Manta Rays in Kona. The location turned out well for us. There is resort access to a rocky stretch of shoreline (with a beautiful view) and a private beach. We spent time on the beach wading, watching the sea turtles, and watching the sunset. We also went snorkeling at the public beach (about 1/4 mile up the road), and the snorkeling there was great. The variety of fish and urchins was better than on Maui, and we saw more sea turtles.
