We had a great stay at Kona Coast and loved the location (close to Kona town) and the beautiful golf course scenery. The unit was clean, was spacious with 2 full bathrooms and a large lanai.
However, we were very surprised and upset to learn this was a TIMESHARE AIRBNB. Meaning that you get a unit based on how many points the owner has for the stay. The pictures that are listed are deceiving as those are the top tier units and not what we were offered. We were expecting a 3rd floor, partial ocean view from the lanai and were instead offered a 1st floor unit with a view of the basketball court. Not okay for what we paid for the 10 day stay. Luckily when we complained about this to Kona Coast they accommodated us to a 3rd floor unit but we had to push hard for this and it put a damper on the day and checkin process—not how we wanted to start our vacation.
I would consider this listing again for the location but without guarantee of what the unit will be I’d probably opt for a more specified rental.
