Reviewer Comments:
We booked this place because of the views we saw in the pictures and they did not disappoint. We ate most of our meals and watched the sunset from the lanai. The small yard was private and very relaxing. The unit had everything we needed and the appliances in the kitchen worked well. Internet was strong. Added bonus was having A/C! However all of the furniture is dated and could use a refresh, and the TV is small. Recliners on the patio would have been nice since we spent so much time outside. We loved the property but a few upgrades would make this property perfect.

Pros: Love the ocean front townhomes for the daily sunset. Nice pool & bbq area as well as tennis courts. Whole complex if very well kept. Also, great snorkeling beach close by that is walking distance. Cons: Very dirty floor. As soon as I stepped into the house, I immediately felt the grittiness of the floor. So dirty that it made our socks and feet black. Second dirty item is the rice cooker. The funny thing is, there is a note to wipe it clean but it was so dirty that it could not be cleaned. I couldn't use it, it was disgusting. Third con is the sofas are old not very comfy. Fourth con, only one roll of paper towel. It was already in the holder so it's probably the leftover from the previous renter and there was no back up roll. I'm reserved the place for a week, at least have a second roll. Finally the fifth con, no designated parking spot.

Views are incredible. Best in this resort and maybe all of Hawaii! Sunsets every eve, almost empty beach, turtles and snorkelling on doorstep. Condo really well set up and comfortable. Property manager really responsive and helpful (even bringing us cooler when we had just failed to find where other one put away). If looking for peaceful beautiful spot in Hawaii this spot is perfect.

My family of 3 stayed here for 2 weeks and we had a great time. Overall I'd say the current rating of 4.8 stars is spot on: it wasn't 100% perfect, but it was very close.
Highlights:
- The view is spectacular. We spent many evenings watching sunsets from the lanai and listening to the waves crashing.
- The location is great. Super short walk to the adjacent beach that you can see from the lanai (the beach is a little rocky, but there are tidepools to explore and if it's calm you can snorkel right there). 10 min walk to Kahalu'u Beach for excellent snorkeling. Short drive to restaurants & groceries.
- AC worked great. 1 unit downstairs plus 1 in each bedroom. Didn't need to run them that frequently but was great to have when needed and they worked quickly. Upstairs bathroom had no coverage so it did get warm some days but not a big deal.
- Had 1 big issue when we arrived - internet wasn't working. The local crew worked quickly to help resolve it and it was back up and running in less than 24 hours.
Minor Issues:
- Had a couple smaller issues that the crew didn't ever resolve (downstairs toilet kept running, they said they'd get a handyman but never happened in our 2 weeks; upstairs bath floor lighting didn't work, also never fixed).
- Owner stores her car in the main parking space now, so we had to use guest parking, but we were always able to get a spot that was close so not a big deal.
- Master bed was soft - we prefer firmer so not ideal but we still slept fine.

You can almost touch the waves while sitting on the lanai at Keauhou Surf & Racquet Club. A beautiful oceanfront condo that I hope to return to in the future. The condo is very well equipped for one’s needs. It’s the perfect location and comfy in every way. Excellent communications with the owner. Easy to find and very enjoyable. Lots of activities close by including good restaurants. The sunsets are amazing!

My husband and I wanted to take our daughter somewhere after graduating high school. After scouring different websites looking for hotels, we decided to check into rental properties. I'm so glad we did. The townhouse was perfect for the three of us. My favorite spot was the lanai overlooking the small beach behind us. I sat there every morning just watching the waves and tide roll in with my breakfast. There were yellow tang fish everyday. We also saw turtles swimming there. The townhouse was close to town but not in it. There is a beach that's only a short (maybe 10 minutes) walk down the street. You can snorkel on the small reef there. We borrowed the beach chairs from the townhouse which also has some snorkeling equipment when we drove up to a beach north of the airport. The only thing that was a bit off putting was the A/C in the master bedroom. Of course, since it faces west, you get the full sun all afternoon and evening. That makes it harder to cool down. That was a minor detail for an overall great trip. We're already looking forward to another trip to the big island soon.

The location and views of the ocean are amazing. The home is well decorated and comfortable. We even used the kitchen pass through to the patio. We spent the majority of our time out on the patio enjoying g the views and sounds of the ocean. We highly recommend staying here.

We loved being right next to the ocean and watching the sunset every night from our lanai!
