This is a great place for a relaxing vacation - clean, spacious, and a cut above most condos in the area in that the bathrooms have been very nicely modernised, which I appreciated. The shower is lovely, and there's small bottles of toiletries and soap provided. Eerything is immaculately clean.
The condo must have the best view in the complex: over the condo pool area (which is kept very prettily, with lots of plants) to the ocean. The road is pretty quiet, except for the occasional biker, and we certainly weren't bothered by traffic noise. The lanai is a lovely place to sit in the morning or evening.
The kitchen has a coffee machine and filters, pots and pans, plastic plates to take downstairs if you want to barbecue (which I highly recommend - the pool area is charming in the evening).
Rebecca, despite being an off-site host, is very engaged and responsive, and clearly knows the building and the area well. Check-in was simple. The general manager of the condo complex is also very friendly and helpful.
The Nest handles the temperature control efficiently, although the air conditioning is pretty loud, and we were woken regularly throughout the night by the fan coming on. There's no way I could have tolerated the heat without the air con - but then I'm British, and not used to the heat.
There is free wifi, but we found that we had to keep switching between networks to keep a connection. My Mac often has this trouble when a home has more than one router, so this isn't a complaint: just a warning to anyone with a similarly fussy device that you may not be able to watch Netflix or make video calls. Or perhaps it's to do with having too many things connected at once (we both had phones and laptops).
The location is great - you're just a 10-minute drive from some good beaches, from Safeway, and from Kailua-Kona with some good cafes and restaurants. Overall this is a really nice condo, and we enjoyed our stay.
