We are the proud owners of this beautiful vacation home and we are excited to share this slice of Paradise with you! We are experienced Superhosts and Premier Partners and we have worked hard to make sure you will have the most comfortable stay ever!
We have updated this beautiful condo to our exacting requirements: we've added brand new quiet and powerful Dual Zone air conditioning in the living room/kitchen area and its own separate unit in the bedroom. We've also added a brand new beautiful high quality queen sofabed in the living room and expanded the seating.
This modern, completely private top floor (of 3 floors and a basement floor) condo is one of the premier units in the highly desirable Kona Reef Resort situated on the water’s edge luxury hotel strip. You'll be enjoying the top floor for extra quiet and security, not to mention unmatched ocean views. This vacation condo is not just in an oceanfront complex, it is a proper Oceanfront Condo. Don't be disappointed with your rental. True oceanfront condo complexes are hard to find and the only real oceanfront condos at Kona Reef are located in buildings A and D. Any others are just ocean view! Top floor offers the best privacy and security.
We are situated a comfortable few steps away from the general pool/jacuzzi/barbecue area and yet conveniently around the corner so as to avoid any disruptive noises from there. The condo feels like a home away from home, with an up close view of the blue waters of the Pacific Ocean where you will experience Hawaii in all its natural splendor, removed from the tourist crowds. Palm trees sway softly as the waves rush into shore. Look for dolphins, turtles, and if you’re lucky, even whales frolicking right in front of you! Every sunset, a few boogie boarders will ride those waves into Honl's Beach, just 200 feet away. This is known as the home of boogie boarding. The little beach at the corner of the resort grounds, is an easy 2-minute walk from the condo, and features a small cove where there is some nice snorkeling to be had.
* Please note that while there is an elevator to get to the top floor, there is an additional short flight of stairs to climb - a total of 9 steps.
The well-appointed condo is clean, bright, and airy, and is one of just a few units in the resort with newly installed Dual Zone air conditioning throughout the living room and the bedroom. Additionally, ceiling fans in the living room, lanai, and bedroom create a pleasant breeze. This condo has been fully remodeled and upgraded.
Beautiful brand new wood framed sliding glass doors have been installed between the living room and the lanai. The condo features a king bed in the bedroom. A brand new high end queen sofa bed in the living room pulls out into a comfortable bed, thanks to the latest technology. No uncomfortable bar underneath! Comfortable bedding is provided for both beds. The bathroom features a walk-in shower, raised sink, and modern fixtures. Cable television is offered in both the living room and in the bedroom. You are also able to connect to your own streaming services to watch on both SMART TVs. There is also a DVD player.
The kitchen features high end cabinetry, granite counters, and is outfitted with modern appliances - a brand new full stove/oven, a large refrigerator, a dishwasher, and a full-sized microwave. It is ready for use with coffee maker, toaster, kettle, blender, rice cooker, and plates, glasses, ...

Everything was truly wonderful. Sitting on the lanai right by the ocean each morning having coffee and each evening watching the sunset was a delight. Great to be able to walk to several good restaurants. From beach chairs to portable umbrellas and boogie boards, everything one might possibly want or need was provided.

Kona Reef checks all the boxes: oceanfront, 5 minute walk to town, beautifully tiled heated pool and hot tub oceanside, convenient cabana with stainless steel gas grills, shower, bathroom. This unit offers practically the closest oceanfront views you can get without being in the surf! Hearing those waves crash is so soothing and watching that sun slip into the ocean every evening was breathtaking. It's obvious the owners takes great care and pride in this unit with the carefully thought-out Hawaiian decor and comfortable furniture. Beautiful kitchen complete with every small appliance and item you could ever want...even an espresso machine! An added bonus was the welcome amenities they shared: coffee, macnut chocolates, bathroom toiletries, even toothpaste. There's plenty of beach items to use: boogy boards, chairs, cooler, even hand weights for that home workout. No detail was forgotten. They even provided antiseptic wipes and latex gloves for peace of mind. We can hardly wait to return.
Mahalo!

This place was amazing! Short walk to downtown to all the eateries. We enjoyed watching sunsets off the balcony every day! Also so much fun watching the local boogie boarders! Close beach next door. The place had everything we needed! Perfect getaway with my husband! Can't wait to come again!

Overall, our stay was great. All appliances worked and the condo was very clean. View from balcony is amazing and hearing the ocean all night was really special. Only minor complaint was that the bed could be updated.

This rental was all we had hoped for and then some. It's a great location right on the water with perfect sunset views. We couldn't have asked for more. It's obvious that Ailin has been doing this for a while! We had a couple of minor issues and they were addressed immediately. The A/C was an added bonus.

This condo is a wonderful place to stay, look no further!! The view is to die for and listening to the waves was just music to our ears. We also really enjoyed watching all the boogie boarders and surfers right from the lanai. The place was well stocked and was clean. The air conditioning works great and was so nice. We really loved being able to walk into the heart of Kona for meals/shopping. We would for sure stay here again.

Apartment could not improve on the view but came a close second. Everything you could possibly imagine needing was provided.
Key code did not work on arrival but Ailin was on it in a flash and sorted it out
We had no car but all the restaurants were easily walkable. I even walked to Target one day.

The sunsets from the porch were amazing! You have the perfect view. This condo is in a great location to see the sights on the big island. Perfectly located to downtown Kona. The condo has everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Allin has thought of it all. The condo also has coolers you can use for beach days or to pack lunch. We loved it here. We will stay here again!

Stayed here 6 days/5 nights to celebrate our 35th anniversary. This was our first time on the Big Island and we booked this oceanfront condo in Kailua-Kona 6+ months in advance, based on the online pix and description of the property. We had high expectations and -- surprisingly-- this unit exceeeded those expectations. Its a miracle that we even left this condo to explore the island -- the panoramic view of the ocean, palm trees, surfers, and spectacular sunsets was mesmerizing -- and the hosts' attention to detail and thoughtful how-to, where-to notes could not have been better. We loved it.

Direct oceanfront, incredible views. We love watching the fish and occasionally a sea turtle from our lanai. Clean and well-air-conditioned interior. Well supplied kitchen and the coffee and treats are a nice touch. Great location just far enough from historic city center to be quiet but close enough to walk. Our favorite in Kona!
