Amazing location and condo. We had everything we needed for our family and easy access to the beach. The Hilton pass was perfect for us to meet up with family at the hotel. Overall an amazing stay and would come back again in a heartbeat.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this beautiful Kolea condo. The location is excellent, so close to A Bay and Lava Lava Beach Club and a short drive from Hapuna Beach. Chrystal was great to communicate with. We would love to come back!

We had an amazing week here! Our family (with 9 & 12 year old kids) loved the Kolea pool, A-bay, exploring the Hilton (the kids loved that we could use the pools and water slides) and visiting local beaches. The condo has towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkel gear (including kid’s size), coolers - everything you need for a fabulous beach day. The condo itself is clean and beautiful, with everything you need to grill or cook. We loved early morning coffee on the deck. The host was welcoming and very easy to work with. We’ll stay here again!

This condo was beautiful, clean, spacious and had all the amenities (and more) that we needed. The host exceeded my expectations for responses to my questions before and during our stay. I appreciate places like this that have recycling available. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We had just a couple of days here, but we wish we could have extended it to a full week! The property was absolutely beautiful, well appointed, comfortable, and had a very happy vibe! The location was also super convenient to the pool and clubhouse as well as the beach. The owners were incredibly responsive and helpful, and the check-in and checkout process could not have been easier! We loved every minute and can’t wait to come back! Mahalo, Chrystal!

The condo is beautiful and well-equipped. Some ocean views and the sun set in the right spot so we could view it from the second story patio. Close location to the community pool, which has a view of the ocean. Walking distance to restaurants and stores. Also, great selection of beach chairs and toys which we used when we drove to other local beaches. We would happily stay here again.

This property has it all. It is beautifully decorated, fully equipped, and a 2 minute walk to the pool and to A Bay. We have stayed in many VRBO rentals and this one is by far in a class all by itself. The owner had everything we could possibly need. She has plenty of dishwasher detergent, soap, paper products, plastic ziplock bags, service ware, kitchen appliances, basically anything you need. K cups were provided but there is also a Cuisinart coffee maker and expresso maker. There are 4 beach chairs, a collapsible wagon, two beach umbrellas, and plenty of wave boards and snorkeling equipment. In reality all you need to bring is food and clothes. The owner was quick to respond to my questions. The complex is gated and a 5-10 minute walk to shops, restaurants, and the Hilton. Access to the Hilton was a definite plus but we only used it one day because there is so much of the island to see. This rental is a 10 minute drive to Hapuna Beach. There is a black sand beach nearby. Golf is also close. The airport was 20 min away. I cannot give this place enough accolades other than to say we will stay here again when we return to Hawaii. If this review doesn’t convince you to rent this unit then you are missing a truly amazing place. Mahalo!

We enjoyed 2 weeks at Chrystal’s well-equipped unit. She has thought of everything to make one’s stay comfortable- coffee to welcome guests, beach towels and beach amenities, snorkel gear and picnic coolers etc. The apartment is beautiful and well appointed. Close to shops and restaurants and to the pool and beach to watch the sunset. Chrystal was very quick to respond with any question we had to ensure we enjoyed our stay to the most. I couldn’t recommend this more.

We enjoyed tour stay thoroughly. The new owner is very communicative and was available when needed. The condo is beautiful, well stocked, and the surrounding grounds are beautiful. Highly recommend.

We stayed for a week for our honeymoon and it was the perfect location! Almost directly on the beach and right next to the pool. Short walk/drive to shops and food and various beaches on the Kona coast. Not to mention being a high end place in and of itself. Highly recommend!
