WOW. I’m a little hesitant in writing this review because I want to keep this little secret to myself. However, the best things in life are worth sharing so here it is. We have traveled to Hawaii many times and I think this is the best condo that we have rented. First, the location is perfect if you like being a little further away from downtown Kona. It’s a little more peaceful and is across the street from an excellent snorkeling beach as well as a beginner surf area. What more can you ask for. Yes, there is more. The Keauhou shopping center is also within a few blocks so you have access to a grocery store, Long’s Drugs and multiple nice restaurants.
Although the unit is across the street from the beach, the view is outstanding from the balcony. The facility also has a nice pool with a warm Jacuzzi and an outdoor BBQ. Parking on site was never an issue. The owner of the condo has added multiple amenities that will make your stay fantastic. The unit is well equipped with multiple boogie boards, a day cooler, chairs and a beach umbrella. There is no need to bring anything because the unit has it all. The owner has also included beach towels which makes packing easier. There is a full size washer and dryer in the unit as well as a television in every room. We don’t normally watch TV but the channel selection was irresistible. Kona can get a little warm but luckily the unit has a very efficient air conditioner which we absolutely loved. For those of you who need coffee in the morning the unit has a coffee grinder for your morning coffee as well as a blender for your afternoon drinks. The attention to detail as well as superb kitchen utensils was fantastic.
The owner has included many suggestions regarding restaurants , beaches and activities in a 3 ring binder. Between this binder and the Hawaii, Big Island Revealed book you have all the information you need at your fingertips. Although I would like to keep this little secret to myself, I’m sure the cat is out of the bag. This unit is fantastic. I would highly recommend staying here.
