Thanks for a great stay. The office support was great.

This is an amazing apt, so perfect, clean, organized, simply lovely, we were amazed that everything was thought out, we were sad to leave, we loved out stay!

We have been to kona many times and this place was ultra comfortable with one of my favorite swimming beaches right across the street! Thank you for everything !! We had so much fun!

We had the best time here! The wifi was pretty bad in the house but other than that a great place!

Would definitely stay here again.

What a perfect house in a perfect location. Kona Coast Vacations was great to work with - they even left a local selection of snacks on check in. I definitely hope to stay with them again!

Great apartment (the kitchen was better than at home) and you are right at the sea. We (a couple and a 10 year old child)even could watch dolfins while having breakfast. The concierge David is very helpful.

A very sophisticated space Two swimming pools People around thanks to the sun every morning and every evening Very safe Everything clean

Great location, walking distance to all shops on Ali'i dr. Very clean condo.

Good parking and good location.

This was an amazing location for our family to visit with other family members who live in Kona. We were able to share so much quality time with each other. The unit had everything we needed making it the perfect for our family retreat. Mahalo

This condo had an amazing view of the ocean and it was nice to have the pool view right below us for when the big kids wanted to be in the pool. I didn’t think the unit having no AC would be an issue since my house in Hawaii didn’t when I lived there but I have to give a fair warning that the unit was very warm inside during the day. There were plenty of fans in there but the air flow still wasn’t great just because there couldn’t be windows on 2 sides of the unit. If you are like us and are out most of the day it’s not a huge issue. If you stay in this beautiful condo I would recommend using the grills outside by the pool for meals instead of the oven and also taking cool showers in the master bath so you don’t heat the place up anymore before you go to bed! They had everything we needed to cook meals and also everything we needed for our 3 month old baby to be comfortable so it’s a great place to stay for families if the heat doesn’t bother you too much.

Very nice condo, ideally located in Kona with direct access to the sea.The condo was very well equipped, you receive all the necessary information before your departure, the place is quiet and welcoming, the concierge available, satisfied not our stay!

Property grounds were beautiful. It was quiet and everyone was friendly. Unit was comfortable and well equipped. Only problem was air conditioning did not work well. We chose this property specifically because it had central air. Took several days for someone to come look at it and they were unable to repair it while we were there. It worked well enough to keep the humidity down and there were fans which helped a lot. In all fairness, we were offered a different unit but by then it didn’t seem worth it to pack up everything and move since we weren’t going to be there many more days. Since the air didn’t work well we were unable to use the washer and dryer. Tried it once but it made the unit too hot. All in all, if the air conditioner is repaired, I would recommend this unit

Aloha!  Mahalo for having been our guest and for taking the time to share with us your recent stay.  Please accept our apologies for the issues you encountered with our guest room.  The air-conditioning has since been replaced so there is a brand new unit!   It has been a pleasure to have you as our guest & we hope to see you again the next time your travels take you back to the Big Island.
Mahalo. Kona Coast Vacations

We spent 14 nights here and it was almost perfect and I would actually give it 4.75 stars if I could! The view is spectacular and we saw many dolphins from the delightful balcony. Since it was August and a bit warmer, we did miss the air conditioner. The upside is we experienced more of the island life than on previous trips and the pool and spa are very nice! Everything in and around the condo felt pristinely clean and very well kept. The amenities in the condo were wonderful - even a coffee grinder since we love to have our coffee fresh! Kona Vacation was so quick to help when one fan was not working. I would highly recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful experience. We never saw nor needed management personnel. Excellent location, easy access, well maintained and well provisioned.

This place has all the amenities you could need— even things we didn’t think we’d need! The drawbacks are that it is on the third floor and has no AC. But it’s a fantastic value with a wonderful view and plenty of space. Would definitely recommend!

It was great. The condo was very clean and up to date. Exceptionally well stocked in the kitchen with everything you would want except for a large oven dish. The added benefit of having beach towels and surf toys was appreciated.

The apartment was perfect, clean, great view to the Ocean and swiming pool.We had a wonderful time in Kona thanks to the great location and ! See you next time in Big Island!!! Aloha and mahalo! Lucilia e Roberta from Brazil!!! 🙂

Great Villa. We had fantastic time.

Thank you, wonderful place, comfy beds, great location

A very nice space with great location. The balcony was really nice to use especially in the mornings. There is no air conditioning but plenty of fans are provided. Communication is excellent.

This is a wonderful condo with a fantastic view! We were grateful for the air conditioning, but wished it made it to the bedroom. We did buy a fan, which we left in the closet, and that helped bring some air to the bedroom. There is wifi, but it is extremely slow. We used our own data.This is a great place and we would definitely stay again.You guys have great service!

Great location, and very clean with nice amenities. Ideal for singles or families.

The apartment is as described in the advertisement. The common areas (pool ...) very well. Good communication

Updated, nicely appointed condo with balcony overlooking the ocean. Close to town. Air conditioning was a wonderful amenity in late July. Loved everything about this place!Great place, just as advertised! Loved the air conditioning!

Excellent location if you wanna snorkel the beach park. I liked to get up and go first thing in the AM.

Great Home, located centrally to everything in Kona. The kids and I went to “Dawn Patrol” at Magic's several mornings. We enjoyed coffee on the Lanai and swimming to cool off in the afternoons. Home was furnished with just about everything. We have lived in Kona before and would continue to stay at this Home anytime we visit. Mahalo and thanks for everything!

Beautiful views of the ocean from both balconies. Condo was fantastic and the swimming pool and on-site restaurant exceeded expectations. We ended up eating dinner there twice and several days just hanging out at the pool. Unbelievable sunset views.

The main terrace is large and nice. The kitchen is well equipped and very spacious. The rooms are on the first floor and the 2 main ones have access to a balcony. Behind the house, the sea is near. You can easily walk to nearby restaurants and shops.

Great location right on the shore. Easy walk to Huggo's, On The Rocks, and Habaneros. Great parking and quiet neighbors. Would love to go again!

Very good accommodation, well placed and well equipped with bodyboard to enjoy the waves. I recommend it to you

The condo was clean and comfortable. It was easy to access and instructions provided ahead of time were clear and simple. Thank you Kona Coast for the wonderful stay!

Everything was wonderful. The best place for our family reunion. David our concierge was wonderful!

House was absolutely perfect! Visited during the week of July 24th-31st 2018. I was worried about Vog issues due to the current eruption. Most of the time the views were amazing. There were times when the vog would roll in. Luckily we had more clear skies than not. My son has Asthma which is very controlled, but was still concerned prior to arriving. He didn't need his Inhaler once during the trip. The AC was amazing to have because some nights were extremely humid and I'm sure having the AC helped not aggravate his asthma. The only downside was the hot water didn't last very long which I guess isn't so bad as I wasn't wasting time just standing in the shower lol! This is a gated community and the neighborhood is beautiful and I felt very safe. Lots of privacy even in the open backyard. Pool and views were the highlights of the house. Love the high ceilings! It had everything we needed plus some for cooking. We didn't see any bugs what so ever inside of the house. Only one cute little lime green lizard which probably followed us inside at one point. Beds were very comfortable, even the couches in the living room were comfortable! Netflix worked great when we were just relaxing in the evenings. There we some beach chairs and an umbrella. Two boogie boards however one was not in good shape so only one was usable. Lots of stores close by like Walmart and Safeway. I would highly recommend this house.

Fantastic place. Silence and peace. I'll be back

This is such a beautiful location with all the amenities you need for your stay in Kona! It's got a perfect view of the clear water-- you can see fish from your balcony! The only thing I didn't consider before renting is that there is no air conditioning (that is the norm in Hawaii). There are ceiling fans in each room and additional plug-in fans for extra comfort.

Nice, well stocked home. Also, very pleasant to sit out on the deck for our meals and to visit. I would return.

This home is truly unique and amazing! The pics don't tell the whole story. From the little black sand beach with great snorkeling within walking distance to the fancy closing drawers and sensory touch kitchen faucets. Will look up Kona Resorts properties again next time for sure!

This house was absolutely everything we wanted for our stay in Kona. A view, space, private pool, and a fully stocked kitchen. This house has everything you think you need and more! I felt very taken care of and in turn I could take care of my guests. The house itself is on a mountain so having a car is key or relying on uber or taxis - be prepared to spend a lot on those. The pool itself was clean and had plenty of seating around it. We bbq'd and had a wonderful time. Thank you so much!

Beautiful terrace with direct access to the sea. Apartment very well equipped and comfortable. Close to places of interest around Kona.

The location was awesome! The view was phenomenal. We saw dolphins almost every morning.

So cozy. Great mattresses. Hosts were very nice and accommodating.By far the easiest part of our trip. Mahalo.

Excellent experience overall. Staff and concierge were very helpful and responsive.

Great location for the condo. The views of the ocean is nice from the balcony. We had nice breakfast there. The condo comes well equip. We had great and warm weather when we were in Kona which kept the condo very warm. AC would have been usefull to chill out the place at night but it was expected. Our stay was great.

Very good location, the city of Kona is only 4 minutes away and offers many opportunities to go out to eat or drink. The area is very nice and well maintained, but this also means occasional loud noise in the morning as mowing lawn.Another tip is to read the agreement well, post should not be sent to the apartment but only to the office of Cona Coast. In my case Cona Coast was very accommodating and tried to help me in every way. All in all a great place to stay that I can recommend.

Thank you so much!! This was our first Airbnb experience and it was amazing! The place was perfect and had an amazing view! We saw dolphins almost every morning we were there and the binoculars are a great touch! Beach supplies were great and the washer/dryer really came in handy too! We will definitely book again! Thank you for everything!!

Beautiful home tucked on the hillside facing the water. Sensational views, comfortable beds and couches, and all the appliances needed for a week.

We had two couples stay in the condo and it was perfect! Everything was very clean, comfortable beds, and wonderful communication with the host! They even booked a luau and snorkel trips for us. I would highly recommend staying here!

We loved our stay at this property. The location is superb and the golf course and ocean view is worth a million dollars. Our favorite thing to do in the morning was to sit at the patio with a cup of coffee and enjoyed watching people play golf and stare at the ocean view. We'd go out again at dusk and enjoyed the sunset. The condo has lots of amenities in the closet for beach goers (snorkeling masks, beach mats, beach chairs, foam board, towels) so you don't have to rent or purchase them when you are on the island. The only reasons we didn't give this property a 5 star rating were that the blinds are hard to maneuver and the fans were hard to operate (we were there when the temperature was in the 90's, couldn't get them to turn faster than a medium crawl), wish there was operation manuals for those remote controlled fans.

Alii Villa is conveniently located: 10 minute drive to Kona downtown, or 10 minute the other way to Kahaluu park for fun snorkeling.

Kona Coast was very accommodating and extremely organized and professional. I would recommend them for your stay in Kona.

One of the better Waikoloa Village properties that I've stayed in. Spacious and spotless. Appreciated the extra touches: snorkels, body board, coolbox. Very good value.

It was a very pleasant stay for us. I was amazed how the unit was well equiped. No matter what we needed during the stay, we will find them in the unit. I can stay there for a long time. Also, i like the neighborhood, because its quite and has a pool and BBQ area. I think it's a bargain considering its location and hotel pool access.

Nice secure place. Great location. Appreciated amenities like beach towels. Recommend to anyone visiting Kona.

Perfect place to stay with a family of six

Fantastic apartment in the middle of a lovely complex. Very modern look with super comfortable beds and beautiful solid furniture. Well equipped kitchen, for our 6 person stay we lacked nothing. Theres 2 double bedrooms that have great beds and linens, one with a fantastic ensuite bathroom, the other with a bathroom right next to it. The mezzanine level was a big bonus as it allowed our 3 tweens/teens to have their own private area - they were very happy with that and it could sleep 4. There's a pool steps away and a lovely private beach a 2 minute drive. Plenty of great stores also 2 minute drive away including a supermarket with everything you'd need - especially great fresh fish, meat and deli sections. At the shopping area there's a range of restaurants and cafes - we especially liked the Blue Room for seafood and steak and Napua beach restaurant has really excellent food with stunning views. An upscale base for exploring the island - and the beach was perfect for safe snorkeling, has free sun loungers and double lux loungers with shade canopies. Get there before 10am to secure the lux ones. There's a ‘secret pool' with freshwater and mosquito fish that nibble your toes, you can swim in this beautiful cool water, but go before applying sunscreen so you don't upset the fish habitat - it's a one of a kind experience. Make sure to explore the Manoku Fishpond area to see a different eco system and wildlife - it's right next to the beach and makes for stunning pictures. Highly highly recommend the swimming with dolphin boat cruise and the Manta Ray night swim - book through David the concierge.

It was great. The condo was very clean and up to date. Exceptionally well stocked in the kitchen with everything you would want except for a large oven dish. The added benefit of having beach towels and surf toys was appreciated. Really a first class operation.

This townhome in the Waikoloa area was much better than we had expected. The owners thoughtfully left everything we needed, including (as examples) soy sauce, dryer sheets, and books to read. Thank you! It is also very easy to get from this townhome to running trails and to all the Waikoloa area.

Très agréable condo, situé idéalement à Kona avec accès direct à la mer. Le condo était très bien équipé, vous recevez toutes les infos nécessaire avant votre départ, l'endroit est calme et accueillant, le concierge disponible, satisfait ne notre séjour!

We enjoyed our stay at Awamoa place. Very nice house! I especially appreciate the offer to move us due to wildfires near the village. It didn’t come to that but the call from the propert management company that night gave us piece of mind.

This house was amazing. Super clean and had every amenity we needed. My husband and I and our two young kids stayed here for 5 nights and had such a blast. I highly recommend this condo for your Big Island vacation!

We had an excellent stay. The condo was perfect and just like being at home. It was fully equipped with everything you would need for your stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea Village 4303. Not having AC was a bit of an adjustment for us, but it really helped to have so many fans and the AC in the bedroom was awesome! The only thing we could suggest would be to update some of the non-stick pans because their coating is flaking off.

Aloha!  We very much appreciate you taking the time to provide us with this feedback. We will be updating the pans based on your feedback. On your next visit, please know we are available if you need us  - we are happy to help!  We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay & hope that we can welcome you again.  Mahalo.

Our family enjoyed every moment at the property. The infinity pool and hot tub were such a draw with breathtaking views, we didn't want to leave. Kitchen stocked with everything you could possibly need, abundant towels, comfortable beds. Even a tropical outdoor shower. We have rented many homes and this was our favorite!

Helemano was everything we hoped for and more. The scenic beauty, the beautifully appointed house and home....just everything about this place was so wonderful. We wanted to create a wonderful family time and this place delivered. Mahalo for all the special memories we created. God Bless You.

What a wonderful place to stay for our family of four. This condo offered all of the amenities of home, and was so very spacious to boot! With one teenager and one almost-teenager (plus Mom & Dad), everyone was happy with their own space and their own bed. Three bathrooms was a huge bonus! The kitchen was well-stocked with more than you usually would find in a rental. And, there were all kinds of great beach necessities available for our use as well. We loved the ceiling fans at night, and the master bedroom bathroom was HUGE! Lots of extra linens, lots of places for our family to sit and enjoy a movie (cable + DVD player), and this condo is in a very quiet part of the community. We highly recommend the Turtle House!

Beautiful terrace with direct access to the sea. Apartment very well equipped and comfortable. Close to places of interest around Kona.

A view, space, private pool, and a fully stocked kitchen. This house has everything you think you need and more! I felt very taken care of and in turn I could take care of my guests.

We like our vacations un your condo, well equiped, perfect for us

Great location right on the shore. Easy walk to Huggo's, On The Rocks, and Habaneros. Great parking and quiet neighbors.

This house has a wonderful sea view. The main terrace is large and nice. The kitchen is well equipped and very spacious. The rooms are on the first floor and the 2 main ones have access to a balcony. Behind the house, the sea is near

This was a beautiful, clean and spacious apartment perfect for a family of 4. We stayed for 10 days and couldn't fault the place. Waikoloa is so much nicer for a family vacation than Kona and always seems to be sunny, even when the rest of the island is raining or covered in Vog. Perfect location for accessing the whole island as the road to Hilo starts at Waikoloa and you don't have that 5km traffic jam into Kona after an afternoon of sightseeing. The pool is awesome, spa is lovely and if you're into such things theres a great little gym too. It's a couple of minutes walk to shops and restaurants, even walkable to the Lava Lava Beach Club for sunset drinks and dinner. So much more space and CHEAPER than the Marriott across the road. its a no brainer. We'll be back.

This is a high-quality, large two-bedroom condo in Waikoloa Village with wonderful golf-course and ocean views from the lanai. We enjoyed using the lanai table and chairs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The ocean is about 4 miles away (line of sight) and about a 15 to 20-minute drive to the best beaches on the island. One of the nice features is that while you enter the condo at ground level, because of the slope of the land, the lanai (on the other side of the condo from the front door) is at a second-floor elevation. There are condos below and above this unit but didn’t notice any noise. This well-maintained condo has all the amenities advertised. Best of all everything works! The furnishings are all high quality and the king-size bed in the master bedroom is comfortable (we didn’t use the 2 twin beds in the second bedroom). The master bathroom has a separate tub and shower stall and the bathroom for the second bedroom has a shower stall (no tub). The condo is managed by Kona Coast Vacations and they did a fine job handling the reservations, payments, and access instructions. But because there were no problems, we didn’t need to contact them for customer service during our stay. We’ve stayed at several vacation rentals over the last 10 years in Waikoloa Village and this one is the best.

The grounds and pool were gorgeous and the home was so well appointed, even better than the online pictures. When we come back to Kona, this will be our place to stay. David and the rest of the Kona Coast Vacation staff were so friendly and accommodating. Recommendations were spot on, from restaurants to day trips, zip lining, snorkeling, etc.

We had such a great vacation. David did a great job of arranging everything. The condo was spotless and we had everything we needed. We loved the pool , the neighborhoods and beaches. Would definitely recommend the place to our friends. Thank you. The Reitmaier family.

Great location right on the shore. Easy walk to Huggo's, On The Rocks, and Habaneros. Great parking and quiet neighbors. Would love to go again!

This unit completely exceeded our expectations. The location of this unit is the best at the property. Having the beautiful grass yard in front was dreamy with kids. The place had all the amenities we could have asked for and was stocked nicely in the kitchen. It was clean, nicely maintained, spacious and really beautiful. David at the Concierge service was a huge help as well. We couldn't have asked for more.

Well stocked and organized home. Conveniently located and comfortable, with good views from the Lanai.

Just wanted to say that I have been to Kona close to 50 times and stayed at countless places. Royal Sea Cliff unit 109 has been one of the best. Great location, unbeatable view, spacious and all the amenities! Couldn't have asked for more. The concierge service is also a gem. Your place made our trip very special.

This condo has many 5 star reviews...and deserves each one. We have never stayed in a condo that was so well stocked. From dishes, pots/pans, glasses, all the way to beach towels, chairs and fins. We were delighted. The housekeeping and linens were impeccable and the view from the lanai (golf course and then ocean) are breathtaking and peaceful. The salt water pool was also a treat. The building was quite and restful. We will return.

The condo itself was really nice and well equipped. The views are stunning because you are just a few feet away from the ocean. The property was clean and well maintained, the equipment (kitchen, etc) was good, so we could enjoy our time there from the beginning. Next to the condo is a nice little beach (1 minute walking distance), it also takes only a couple of minutes to get to shopping/dining area of Kona. The community areas of the resort were also well maintained. I can strongly recommend this condo, it will be difficult to find anything better in Kona.

This place is AWESOME! My family and I love this place! It's a very neat and clean condo and all the appliances works, no problem at all. We enjoyed it very much. We just came home and we're already planning on going back again...

The villa was wonderful with a spectacular view. The villa is extremely well equipped and everything is well indicated, thank you for the wonderful stay and thank you David for your good advices!

I found Magic Sands with the help of Google Maps satellite view, the great travel book Hawaii – The Big Island Revealed, and of course, TripAdvisor. Hotel prices in the area are phenomenally high and I was surprised to find that condo rentals were such a great value in comparison, even beyond the fact that they have a complete kitchen (and my wife is an outstanding cook). Like most of the prime spots on Ali’I Drive, it’s been here for a while and I think this is one of the best locations on the whole strip. It is off by itself, at the north end of a great public beach (more later) and just south of a small, palm-tree shaded park. I chose one of the larger units at the south end of the complex, with an extended lanai on our floor these were 202-205. This unit’s management, Kona Coast Vacations, provided great service from booking to follow-up. They sent all the essential information, clearly documented, and had a concierge service to answer questions. In the unit were small signs with useful information, helping me feel informed without being regimented. The units in the complex are individually owned, but there is an onsite manager to help with all. The back of the condo faces the street, so you hear very little traffic noise. The front is not much more than a dozen yards from the ocean front seawall. While we were here, at least, the sound not waves lapping over the sands but rather pounding surf. Though not much is promised in the way of accessories, our unit included a couple of great beach chairs, beach pads ,a boogie board, some pro-quality swim fins and swimming goggles, as well as miscellaneous other beach toys. There’s a pool outside, but we favored the beach next door. The furniture is all comfortable and the fairly recent remodel is practical more than lavish (and who needs “lavish” when you’re in paradise?). The kitchen is efficient and well equipped and there were a fair number of non-perishable basics waiting for us (and we will leave a bunch more). There are large ceiling fans by the bed, in the living area and on the lanai. At the far end of the complex is a secure and well-equipped laundromat. If you forgot to bring quarters, you can get change at the complex office. There were some detergent pods there and we left a box of the more conventional stuff my wife preferred. A minor maintenance issue was handled quickly with no inconvenience, even though I made the initial report on a Sunday evening. Wi-Fi is local to the room and secure. I clocked the download speed at over 60mbps, which many people will find faster than their home connection. There was a guide to the generous number of channels offered by Spectrum, the local cable company. We’re not really TV-watching people, but there were a lot of good local stations as well. The condo was pretty well stocked with basic living supplies and non-perishable sauces and seasonings (and we added to that pretty generously as well). You’re directly next door to Magic Sands beach which, it turns out, is a local favorite for boogie-boarding. And for that, it’s pretty darn near perfect. The slope of the shore is very gentle so you can go pretty far out and still touch bottom. But that’s pretty relative. When we were there, six-foot waves weren’t that uncommon. In the parking lot across the street from the beach, there’s even a bike-rental station. Notes on Kona: Parking can be a challenge along the beach area. Look for public parking lots, they’re free but often confusingly adjacent to private lots at $8.85/hour prepaid. The best and highest priced eateries are along the beach, with some better prices if you go east a block or two. For food shopping, there are KTA Superstores just north in downtown Kona and one that’s to the south in the Keauhou Shopping Center, a little further away, but much bigger and most times of the day it’s a shorter trip. It’s also a great source for the local coffee and macadamia nut souvenirs you bring home to friends.

My family loved staying at Nani Kahakai. We have rented from Kona Coast Vacations in the Kahakai Estates neighborhood before and always have good properties and good service. We especially liked the large lanai and the pool. The house and yard were very clean and well maintained. We hope to come again. Our favorite things while on Island were: Snorkeling at Honaunau, Mauna Kea, Kua Bay and Waialea Bay. Eating out at Sam Choy's (Keahou), Fish Hopper and Lava Java (Kona). Driving to Punalu'u Black Sand Beach and stopping at the Punalu'u Bakery in Na'alehu for fresh malasadas (Portuguese donuts) on the way - Yum!

Absolutely terrific. We loved Mahuahua Place, the house was so convenient for our big party of eight adult people. Enough space both inside and outside. The facilities were beautiful, landscaping outside lush and well kept.Pool very nice for our morning exercise, and the lanai for breakfast and evening meals. We also enjoyed the little guestbook, and the booklet with information and special greeting from the owners, Kathy and Bob.That made a little personal touch, just enough to make us feel welcome. The gift basket was also very nice as a welcome. We had one week at this house, and one more at another house in Waikoloa village. Mahuahua pl was clearly the best! We used to live on the island many years ago, and this trip was a reunion, both with friends and many dear places on the island. That is why we didn't use your offer on activities with concierge David. We were lucky enough to go with the locals/ our friends. Our favorite beaches: Makalawena, Kua, Mauna Kea and Hapuna. Lava Lava club at A-bay was nice for both lunch and dinner on the beach. Some of us was up on Mauna Kea, stargazing was terrific. We went out boating and snorkeling with " bite me sportsfishing" /ocean encounters, which was great fun. We were able to see some dolphins, as a bonus. However, we hope that dolphin watching is kept on a low scale as tourist attraction, as those great animals shouldn' t be disturbed, but be kept in peace in their habitats. We went on a road trip to Hilo, seeing Akaka Falls on our way. We also saw the vulcano Kilauea at a distance from a good view point in Pāhoa after sunset. Our concerns about the vog before our travels, was not any worry...for us tourists the vog was just good as an extra sunscreen when there. But we do hope on behalf of you people living there, that it's not becoming a constant problem. We missed the nice, clear views over the sloping hillsides and over the ocean, we used to have when we lived there. Anyway we enjoyed our stay above our expectations, it was awful to leave paradise, and we hope to return before long. Best greetings from Bergen, Norway Lynn and Finn Christian

A very nice space with great location. The balcony was really nice to use especially in the mornings. There is no air conditioning but plenty of fans are provided. Communication is excellent.

wonderful place, comfy beds, great location

Our villa was beautiful! The four of us each had our own bed and loved the living space, kitchen and lanai. The loft was so cute, just wish it wasn't so hot up there. The whole place was more equipped than with expected. The kitchen had almost any appliance we could think of. Our concierge was super helpful and responded quickly and effectively.

A very cozy apartment, fully equipped and with a beautiful balcony and a very well-kept garden with pool area directly on the sea (but no direct access to the beach)! Quiet location, we enjoyed it very much!

Good location right on the seashore with a very nice pool and a well appointed BBQ area. The view from the balcony to the sea is nice. The communication with Kona Coast is excellent and even offers a concierge service to help us plan our activities.

A lovely apartment in an idyllic location. The views and the beach are beautiful, a lovely clean pool and great facilities in the apartment. We loved our stay here,

We had such a great time. We stayed July 8th-15th. It was amazing, just as described. Very clean, close to everything. The parking spot is quite small but we had a SUV medium sized and we were okay to park the car. We recommend the condo to friends and family. Even our kids (11 and 8) loved the place and even asked to move there! We will certainly go back again to Kona and stay at this place again!

Great location Clean Linens Dishes available among other useful tool in the kitchen Amazing Lanai, Concierge Service

We have regularly stayed at VRBOs for several years now. With a family of 11 members and still growing, it has been a great alternative to hotels! I must say, we have never had a bad experience with any of them but this house was absolutely spectacular! The layout gives everyone plenty of room to be by themselves or together. Our grandchildren spent hours in the pool! The outside veranda area was huge with plenty of seating - we could all sit around the glass table shown in the opening picture! A couple of items that also stand out were the convenience of the large laundry room (we had towels washing daily) and the generous kitchen amenities. There was an abundance of silverware, glassware, and cooking utensils! We like to make family meals together and there wasn't a thing missing that we needed! The beautiful view and quick drive into Kona contributed to the experience. We have been to the big island before and will probably come again - we would definitely come back to this house!

The home was spectacular, well kept, clean, and had everything we needed. Your organization made everything very easy and my contact with the different staff members was pleasant. I definitely would go through you for my next rental. Thank you all for helping my family have a great vacation.

We just returned from a wonderful vacation on the big island. The condo that we rented thru Kona Coast Vacations was perfect. The rental was exactly as advertised and our experience with KCV was flawless. We would certainly book with them again.

I had a great time staying at unit 203 perfect location, simple and full of life. We have very much enjoyed staying at this unit again. Thank you and have a great evening.

I have stayed many times at Casa De Emdeko and Unit 333 was a great unit. The views are wonderful and the grounds well maintained. The unit is clean and quiet. Kona Coast Vacations was wonderful. The AC went out my 1st day there and it was July in Kona.. Very hot and humid. They brought additional fans over and called in for a repairman to fix the problem. I'd stay there again.

We had a fantastic time. Great property and fantastic location. David the concierge was very helpful and sorted out an amazing helicopter ride for our family at very short notice. We had a wonderful family holiday. Thank you very much. The Mcfarlane clan from N.Z

Breathtaking views! Perfect for families or a group. Ideal privacy amongst other neighbors. The views in this home are beyond beautiful and will make the best Facebook pictures 😉 Everything was perfect from the amenities to the kitchen to the bedrooms to the cleanliness. Could not ask for a better location, stay, or hosts, everything exceeded expectations. Pictures do not do this home justice until you see it in real time. Will definitely be coming back soon and bring back friends and family.

The location is central and is easy to navigate. The pool and hot tub provided that added option to stay and chill, or go and venture out. The 2 year old had lots of fun playing in the water feature that flows into the pool. Plenty of fans provided the right amount of airflow to keep things comfortable. There was some "VOG" associated with the Kilauea volcano eruptions which reduced visibility but did not cause any irritation. A short drive to the north side of the island gets you back in the sunshine and beauty of the island. We brought a stroller and high chair on the advice of the property manager only to discover that a high chair, stroller and play pen were stored in the garage. It would have been nice not to haul all extra gear from Canada, oh well, not a biggie. There was plenty of space and elbow room for five adults and one little guy. All in all Mahuahua Place was a great place to enjoy our vacation.

The property was clean and updated very nicely. The location was great, and my kids loved the pools. Great views of the golf course and the ocean. Lots of space for everyone to relax and have their own space. Really appreciated all the extra beach chairs, toys, etc. Enjoyed our stay very much! Thank you!

This was a great location. Just across the street from one of the only beaches for snorkeling and surfing. The only negative was the early morning noisy neighbors to the east. They got up early and sat outside and talked nonstop which made it difficult to sleep in past 6:30. The beach chairs, umbrella and cooler made trips to the beaches very enjoyable. We particularly enjoyed Two Step beach near the painted church. The steps are to the far right as you look toward the ocean. We were snorkeling with Spinner Dolphins. If you like sushi, don’t pass up the opportunity to try Shimaichi Sushi in Kailua-Kona. Here are a few things that could be addressed to make the property even better: 1) Check the handle on the toilet in the master bathroom. It appears to have been installed toward the seat which, when raised, prevents the toilet from flushing properly. 2) More insulation needs to be added to the roof to reduce the heat buildup inside the unit. Maybe this could occur the next time the roof is replaced. 3) The elevator was stiflingly hot in the afternoon. The fan needs to be checked and solar film needs to be applied to the windows to reduce the heat gain.

We loved the unit. The grounds were beautiful and the unit was clean. We would highly recommend staying at this location.

I stayed at Golf Villas at Maun Lani J23 in April and my husband and I were blown away. Everything was beautiful from the landscaping to the home décor it was very welcoming and clean. We made it a point to have coffee on the patio while looking at the golf course and sunrise in the mornings. The reservation process was a breeze and concierge was extremely helpful. We will definitely be staying at the Golf Villas again upon our return. Thank you so much for such a memorable stay.

We had a great time! Mahalo Nui Loa!

Mahalo for a nice apartment and service

Kona is a perfect place to visit. The people, excursions, the beaches, all were so wonderful!

This apartment is a true two bedroom with a loft, so everyone has a space to sleep, on beds, not just sofa sleepers in the living room. The homeowners have provided a number of nice touches, including fans, air conditioners, ample towels and sheets, boogie boards, beach chairs and an umbrella. This is a nice touch! The kitchen is very clean and well appointed with a dishwasher, fridge and even an oven, coffee maker and microwave. We found the fully stocked set of pots and pans and even Tupperware and utensils so helpful! We did have some concerns about the flying bugs, and the pool rules for kids were pretty strict. We got earfuls from other visiting families about the strict no shouting, no floatation devices rules - we are a pretty chill family, so just having a pool as an option to play in the hot afternoons was nice. Having three bathrooms (toilets and showers) was also a big plus. You are located close the Sheraton and a great Farmer's and crafts market on Thursdays. You are also close to a dock where there is the option to sign up for boat tours and snorkel dives (though some our favorite snorkel spots are really accessible off the beach or road for free). It's outside of the traffic and super-touristy Kailua-Kona strip, but still close to a market, excellent restaurants (Sam Choy's!) and a harbor. No beach close by- you will have to drive North for that! Bring big repellent. And don't forget organic coral safe sunblock- it's now the law!

Wonderful property in a great location. Kids beach is directly across the street which was wonderful for the group that we had (9 people, 2 kids included). Pool was smaller than we thought by the photos but it was perfect for our needs. TV's weren't working in a couple of rooms due to upgrades and other issues but the facility was very responsive and willing to work quickly to get them working. Right behind the old airport and recreational facility, perfect for walks. Incredibly spacious, den with the queen bed and pull out sofa is really a bedroom in itself. Very bright home, curtains are not blackout so prepare to wake up early with the sun, recommend to bring sleep masks if you need to sleep in the darkness.

It was a great stay for a week at the sea village 3112 from Japan. The view from the lani was amazing. Pool was very close from the room which was very important for small children, 3 and 5 years old so they could back and forth in a day. The room was big enough for us. It was just a perfect size for two adults and two small children. It was very clean, well furnished, well equipped in the kitchen area where we could literally cook for our kids, and the washer/drier worked they are supposed to. Especially, warm thanks to the maintenance, he came in right away after we sent an email to fix the problems when we had some troubles with hot water. Thanks again. We had a wonderful vacation!

My 2 cousins and I have really enjoyed our stay at the Kila Kila House. It was such a beautiful, relaxing and spaciously floor planned house. It was a perfect choice especially during the 4th of July fireworks that we could see jus' right from the house and we didn't even have to drive to go and see it due to we could see the fireworks right from the Kila Kila House. Thank you very much for accommodating me and my 2 cousins during the July 2nd to July 8th, 2018 holiday and we all really appreciated it very much!

We had a fabulous vacation. The home was exactly what we needed for our family. The entire environment was so relaxing and tranquil after our busy day's adventures. We will definitely recommend this location to our friends and extended family. Mahalo!

Our stay was wonderful! Perfect house for our family. It may be one of our favorite family vacations!

We enjoyed our stay very much at your spacious and well equipped unit. Air quality and views as well as the sundowns were perfect inspite of some vog from the Volcano. The snorkeling across the street was amazing, the table tennis and table soccer was just fabulous for our teenager. What a great place to spend our vacation at. Great dining locations nearby- we saw the Rays!

The Bay Watch was everything that was promised and more. The host took care to make sure that everything that might be needed was provided and more. The bedrooms were comfortable, well cared for and wonderfully appointed. The main house was large, stylish and pampered guests in every way. The living and dining rooms had everything needed to take care of our family five and honestly to entertain 10 more if we'd had a mind to. Add to all of this that the house was right out of a post card and you could not ask for more. Whether sitting in the lanai watching the sunset or stepping out of the pool to look down at the colorful fish in the bay below, the house was, in and of itself, a vacation. Thanks to all who helped make this trip to the islands one of the bes

Beautiful views of the ocean. Great place to stay. The condo had everything you need. The rental company was also great to work with. Highly recommend.

Great spacious apartment with all normal facilities. Good location just outside Kona with nearby shops & supermarket. Access to beaches excellent and if you enjoy golf or tennis both are next door!

This place is awesome!! Everything you need and more for a perfect vacation. It is nice and roomy with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms...great kitchen!!! And the views on the lanai were fabulous. It is a quick drive to town and the beaches-perfect. I was very happy here and will definitely be back to this lovely home on the ocean. What a great experience with Airbnb!!

Fantastic home for my family and me. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were quite comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. The unit was spacious, clean and had a very well stocked kitchen with the tools and cookware you would expect. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

The condo was absolutely beautiful, clean, spacious with a really great view. The bedroom was at opposite side and it was really nice for privacy ! Thanks a lot.

Amazing view and an amazing place to stay. Very quiet and hosts offered everything you could possibly need! The pool area was quiet the time we were there. We will definitely stay here again on our return trip to Kona!

Really great place. Excellent location near Kona, but quiet. Beautiful view of the golf course and the ocean. Even though you're overlooking the golf course it's totally private so you don't feel like there are golfers peering in on you or hitting golf balls at you. 🙂 Space to pack lots of kids in the upstairs. Living area and lanai are fantastic.

We loved our stay.

We stayed at Sea Village in unit 3112. The place met all our needs. Sunset from the deck was beautiful every night, easy location, green flash coffee (right out the door) had great smoothies and snacks. It would only be better if there was Air Conditioning. However, there were plenty of fans.

Amazing place situated right on the water. Listening to the waves roll in every morning just made our experience that much more magical. This place definitely embodies the magic of Hawaii.

Great views, 1.5 miles from magic sands beach. About 2 miles from town. The concierge was helpful in booking tours and with suggestions.

This home did not disappoint, it was the perfect way to end our last week in Hawaii. It was SO very clean and well-organized. The cabinets are full of cooking gadgets, bowls, tupperware, etc. I also really liked that there was a beverage fridge so all the sparkling water and juices did not take up the actual fridge. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and hanging out on the spacious lanai. The hot tub was amazing as well! The beds were super comfortable. Getting in and out of the private community was very easy. It's location is also great - we were close to the things that mattered to us. We would stay here again 100%!

The condo was located in a FANTASTIC area, would highly recommend the location. You are close enough to walk downtown or step out onto the beach. Condo is updated but there was a muskie smell that lasted for a couple days, probably from the condo being closed up for awhile. There were items to borrow such as: Coolers, boggie boards, beach towels, beach chairs, shade umbrella and a snorkel mask plus other items. The pool and hot tube is very close as well. Overall, I would stay here again and yes I would recommend this place.

Our stay was phenomenal. I was a bit nervous that there was no AC, but the airflow in the home and the breeze made the stay comfortable. My wife and I couldn't say enough about the breathtaking view and enjoyed every minute sitting on the balcony having coffee in the morning or drinks at night. Location was perfect for groceries and food and the drive to Hapuna Beach was easy. The home was spotless with plenty of amenities for cooking, drinks and beach needs. We wished we booked a longer stay...maybe next time. Thank you!

Great condo and location. Loved sitting on the large Lanai. Kona Coast was a great company to work with.

This was our first visit to the Big Island, and we enjoyed our stay here. The views off the lanai are beautiful. The location is good. It's not walkable to Kona, but it's close and there is a trolley. It was also a short drive to Magic Sands Beach, the kids favorite because of the boogie boarding. The beach at the condo is better to look at than to swim. It is rocky. The kids played on the rocks, but we had a few bumps and bruises from trying to swim. There were always surfers there, though, so it would be a good fit for surfers. The place could use an update, but it was well furnished and well- equipped. A couple times I looked for something, and I found it in a drawer. The keypad entry was awesome. The kids could come and go as they pleased. It was overall a very good experience.

We stayed at Sea Village in unit 3112. The place met all our needs. Sunset from the deck was beautiful every night, easy location, green flash coffee (right out the door) had great smoothies and snacks. It would only be better if there was Air Conditioning. However, there were plenty of fans.

The condo was absolutely beautiful, clean, spacious with a really great view. The bedroom was at opposite side and it was really nice for privacy ! Thanks a lot.

This place was amazing! They had everything we needed, and the location was great! I loved the travel tip book that was provided.

This is a beautiful condo and has everything you need to enjoy your stay on The Big Island. Great location right on the #2 fairway...close to the clubhouse, pool, restaurants,gas and grocery store. Furnishings and decorating were great ....very comfortable. Enjoyed the lanai...great place fro your morning coffee. I would highly recommend B114 for your visit to The Big Island.

Great condo. It was clean and quiet. The two pools were wonderful. I loved sitting on the private beach in the morning and listening to the surf. David, our concierge, was fantastic to work with. He was quick to reply to my messages-even on a Sunday! His suggestions were fantastic. I highly recommend this condo.

This tranquil property was my first taste of the big island after getting off the plane...."What A Feeling".... Amenities abound while property begs you to spend time enjoying all the beauty Kona has to offer from the infinity pool and outside gathering area. House was spacious, super clean and offered every type of kitchenware you could ever need ... (if you travel a lot, you know what I am talking about) ...... I usually don't give reviews on places that are this cool (don't want to let out the secret) ... Definitely will be back to enjoy again...Huli Pau!

Excellent! Mahalo Nui

We stayed at The Shores at Waikola #124, and the condo was absolutely beautiful! The unit had everything we needed -- snorkel gear, body boards, beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrella and so much more. I highly recommend The Shores and would stay there again in a heartbeat!

This was a great place to stay with all the amenities and gorgeous view from the back patio and pool! Loved the birds that came to visit and say hello! The drive to Hilo for the Helicopter ride over the volcano is a must! Its an hour drive away but well worth the drive! We will definitely be going back to stay in this home! I can't wait for our next vacation!

This place has everything you could ever need. View, pool, space, location, amenities. We came with our two kids (17 & 20) and they each got a room. The interior is beautiful and spotless. They have beach towels (lots) kitchen equipment, extra bath towels, we didn’t have anything we needed to get. The outdoor living area and pool by far got the most use. There are pool toys, extra cushions for chairs and loungers, BBQ, table, etc. we spent several days pool side and evenings eating dinner and playing cards on the lanai. The location is great, terrific view! Close to Kona. We watched the Kona 4th of July fireworks show from the backyard! Vacation property mangers very helpful and kind. There have been concerns abiut the vog from the volcano; and while a bit hazy some days it’s still Hawai’i and wonderful! It didn’t hinder us at all. We will absolutely return to this wonderful home!!

I enjoyed the room and it was very comfortable. I would definitely stay there again. Thankyou for a great room. Aloha

This is a home away from home, where all amenities have been thought of and are generously provided. Kitchen utensils, dishes & cookware comprehensive; bathroom towels, TP, soap and shampoo; the beds are comfortable and the linen quality; beach towels and snorkeling gear; outdoor seating comfortable (bbq problems); and close to thee necessities such as the beach, petroglyphs, groceries, cafes and easy access to the highway for northern, southern and eastern excursions. Instructions get in were painless.

The condo was perfect, decorated beautifully and had everything we needed and even more. Would definitely pick same condo when we come back.

Fantastic view from patio, comfortable and convenient. I'm glad we stayed at 1103 Sea Village

This condo was just so lovely and the ocean front ocean views were absolutely stunning!! Everything was very clean and the condo was stocked with everything you could possibly need: dish soap and detergent, laundry detergent, trash bags, zip lock bags, grill tools, beach towels, coolers, pool and beach toys, etc. I’ve stayed at the Kona Reef complex several times and the location is perfect.

Very nice place

The view was just like the pictures - very amazing, which is what we were hoping for and one of the main reasons for picking it. It was a very hot couple of days during our stay and the AC unit was a portable unit in the bedroom, so the living room did get very warm during the day. This would probably not be an issue during a cooler week. Located within a mile of the main shop/restaurant area and easy parking which was helpful. We had plans already but there was a concierge service willing to help if we needed it which was nice. Overall, good value for a few nights in this area.

The condo is a very nice place and Included all the amenities. Conveniently located to a snorkel beach. Away from all the congestion and tourist traffic of the downtown area made for a peaceful night's and peaceful morning walks. Would definitely return.

Our place in Alii Villas was amazing--older, but clean, with a fantastic view, no traffic noise (we were just up from the water), great fairly large and little-used pool. Mornings and evenings on the lanai overlooking the water was perfect--dolphins each morning, lots of boating traffic (so far off, no sound), sunrises and sunsets. 1.5 miles from Kailua Village and only .5 miles from a great little beach to the north, to which we walked each morning.

Outdooor bbq and beach club we're both amenities we enjoyed. It's fully equipped with cookware and stocked with basic spices, making cooking very simple. The host is very responsive and also let us check in early when the house was ready.

Huge wrap around lanai that looks directly at the ocean. Front room has gorgeous ocean views, back room has only mountain views. Large condo, plenty for space and privacy for two couples.

Everything was very well taken care of by the management company. The apartment was in perfect condition. It was spacious and just right. In addition we were near the pool and shopping areas. All very good. Thank you.

They have every amenity you could need for a trip! The unit is clean and comfortable. Very up to date with the latest things you want and need from appliances to WiFi and flatscreens. There were no hiccups during our stay. It's in prime location right by the town. The check in and check out process was simple as can be. If I ever come back. I would definitely book again with Kona Coast. Aloha!

Gorgeous home with all the amenities! The view of the ocean and sunset never ceased to amaze us during our stay. My only complaint would be the pool. Not sure why the water appeared green. We called David and he had someone out the next day. It cleared up slightly.

Aloha! On behalf of the staff and management of Kona Coast Vacations, we very much appreciate you taking your valuable time to provide us with this very important feedback. We are very sorry that you experienced an issue with the pool during your stay. Your concern has been shared with the management team & the property owner and the decision was made to change to another pool maintenance company. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay & hope that we can welcome you again. Mahalo Kona Coast Vacations

Very nice relaxing and clean place. Customer service is A++. When we comeback to vacation in the big island we will definitely use Kona Coast Vacations again. Thank you very much.

This condo is in the perfect location in the complex. Sweeping views of the water and sunset, right next to the pool, and close to the shared grills. The condo is well provisioned - kitchen has all we needed to cook and the laundry machines are super helpful after days in the sun and sand. Only two downsides: No AC - it was hot. The fans and breeze helped, but required sleeping with the doors open. Property location pin on VRBO is wrong. It shows the unit right in the main drag - it isn't. It is a mile down the coast - to far to walk to dinner comfortably.

We want to thank you for inviting our family to stay in this beautiful home. The views were breathtaking with the best sunsets on the island. It was equipped with anything you needed and more. The layout was perfect, a house we would want to build someday. The kids had a great time in the pool. I know reviews spoke to the coolness of the pool, but it was fine, and the little jetted area got really warm with the “warm blaster” button. We enjoyed rinsing ourselves off in the out door shower after a day at the beach. Although this house is not on the beach, I’d much prefer this view and visiting different beaches. It seemed like there were zero bugs bothering you, so enjoying the outside was great and having the walls opened up was stunning! Thank you!

We felt very at home at our rental place. Plenty of great facilities included, even bogie boards and snorkels! Lots of space as a couple, and/or family as it had 2 seperate bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Will definitely recommend to friends.

This unit is beautiful- well stocked and the area is so quiet. Great location, wonderful beach access- we had no problem with VOG at all, everting was above 5 stars!!!!

An affordable splurge for a grown up family of five with four bedrooms for 25-30 year old “kids” and spouse/friends gathering for a biannual family vacation. House offers luxury and coziness with a Kona indoor/outdoor twist. Everyone comes away with a favorite nap and sunset spot. Central to Kona coast activities. Enjoy a blend of mom & pops and 5 star restaurants as well as a mix of planned and spur of the moment Kona experiences.

Thank you for sharing it. We snorkled in the bay just below and saw lots of fish--yellow tang and a turtle. Also snorkled by the airport beach and just below us on the busy beach, and with the manta rays. Three of us enjoyed watching the manta rays come in from the observation deck at the Sheratan Hotel. Bret and Baylee did a scuba dive. We all enjoyed the pool. The 4 younger members of the family took a helecopter ride and loved it, and they visited a coffee farm. As you can see, we did plenty. Loved all the room, so we could play games and eat some of our meals together.

We were happy with the accommodations, the pull-out bed in the living room is comfortable. The stove was fine, the cooking utensils adequate (not great quality, could have used a large frying pan). We did have the water shut down on Thursday mornings due to some repairs, it took awhile for the hot water to return after but Kona Coast was responsive. The grounds are meticulously tended to, lovely. I would be happy to stay again.

The condo was clean and comfortable. Wife love the amenities like the pool. No laundry in this unit but we made do and some kind of clunky air conditioner noise that we almost got used to haha. We had a great time doing the usual stuff like snorkeling and fishing and an awesome helicopter ride to view the eruption and Lava River. It's been 15 years since we've been to the island and yeah it's getting more crowded but we still found plenty of the Aloha spirit and will be back again

Local surfers to watch all day. Plenty of parking close to the unit. Would defiantly stay here again.

Loved the property, great location. Definitely coming back and will tell all my friends and family about this place.

We had a nice stay and the condo fulfilled all of our needs. The condo is clean and bright and we liked the fact to have snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach stairs and umbrella available to use. We explored different beaches such as Puako, Kekaha Kai Beach Park, Kahalu’u Beach Park and more! The location of the condo was perfect, right behind The Kings Shop and Shell gas station as well as a short walk away over to The Queens Market Place. Plus minutes away from A Bay. The kitchen was well equipped with amenities and I loved the special faucet to refill water bottles! The sofa sleeper we had available gave us a good laugh when we opened it up! It had never been used before and the mattress was still in its original plastic wrapping 🙂 Kona Coast Vacation is very responsive and fixed our flickering bath room light right away. Thank you for making us feel home away from home.

We had an awesome time in Hawaii! A lot of it was because of the great and comfortable condo we stayed in. Kona Coast Vacations were very nice and were there to answer questions and make sure we were taken care of. Thank you so much for your hospitality and great service! Mahalo Nui!

Well maintained and located property. Feet away from the beach and the turtle. We had a little kitchen sink problem the first day and maintenance was done in 24 hours. Great communication and service. Highly recommended

The pool was great, condo was VERY comfortable and the location was FABULOUS!!! Also, the concierge was FANTASTIC!!! We had the BEST trip ever and will definitely be back soon!!!!

Gorgeous views , doesn't get any more “ocean front” or beautiful, view wise. LOVE the deck on the house ; it's definitely one of a kind. The kids room is adorable & the master set up is amazing . Love that ALL bedrooms have an ocean view and LOVE the auto shades that come down to block out heat and light when wanted. I would recommend the owners get air box units in the kitchen & living room. It can get very hot inside due to Hawaii heat/humidity . It was a great home !

We had a comfortable stay at Waikoloa Villas H202. Kids loved the loft area with their own bathroom. The condo had a nice cross ventilation so we didn't need an A/C. The place was clean overall but the bathroom showers could have used a little better cleaning with some Clorox Clean-up in the tile grouts. Also the master bathroom toilet area was so small you can barely close the bathroom door when you get in. The bathrooms and kitchen are a little outdated but they are totally functional.

Condo was great. Very comfortable space within an area one can walk and explore. Not much as far as building amenities go but the condo makes up for cleanliness, comfort level and overall appeal. Great find.

Fantastic place to stay. We received nothing less than excellent customer service ....The condo was great, perfect place to stay ..... we will miss that fabulous lanai overlooking the ocean..... what a view!....

This was a good property and we enjoyed our stay there. The AC worked well, as did the fans, we never felt uncomfortable. This was a good condo and we'd stay there again. Our only negatives were about the property and cant really be helped. The pools were mediocre and between the morning light and loud birds we found ourselves waking up a little earlier than we'd like each morning.

We had a wonderful time at Casa De Emdeko. It was tidy and convenient, quiet at night. The location is great, close to things but not in the middle of it. The pools were awesome. The beautiful grounds are tended to meticulously. I would do it all over again (and hopefully will soon)! They were doing some work requiring the water to be off Thursday mornings, which was inconvenient and it took about two days for the hot water to return to our condo, when I phoned to complain Kona Coast was very responsive. Overall we had a very good experience.

This was the nicest (most up scale) place we stayed on the Big Island, far more upscale than we anticipated for the price. The communications were above and beyond the standard expectation, and the grounds were extremely nice. We recommend this place to anyone for either a romantic get-away or for a whole family.

The fan in the master bedroom was noisy and there was no door to the master bathroom. Other than that it was an amazing place! Would definitely come back!!

We had an absolutely fabulous time at Mauna Lani 333. The property is in absolutely immaculate condition and really truly a luxury stay. Not only is it a huge 3 bedroom and 3.5 bath condo, it is decked out to the nines. Let me just say, my wife is a professional interior designer and I had to drag her out kicking and screaming. All the fixtures, furnishings, woodwork, etc are of very high quality. Everything from the large and beautiful kitchen to the full wall armoir that has a TV that rises magically out of it from below with the push of a button. The bedrooms have large and very comfortable beds and luxury bathrooms with separate bathtubs and showers. TVs in every bedroom, a 2 car garage, all the towels and linens you would need.... the list just goes on and on. Then to watch the beautiful sunsets from the lanai was also a treat. it is located on the Kohala cost and the weather was picture perfect each day and also in that location you are within 5 miles of the two best beaches on the island (hapuna beach and beach 69). We couldn't have been more pleased and would highly recommend on your next trip to the big island. And for all those news stories and photos on the island regarding Kilauea, please ignore. We were there for 6 days during 'eruptions' and earthquakes and given its 70 miles from the northwest coast, it might as well had been 5000 miles away. The news has done Hawaii a major disservice so unless you are planning to stay on the southeast coast, please don't hesitate to visit.

This property was exactly as shown in its ad. It was clean and very well stocked with all of the tools needed to cook a meal. The waves were right outside of the patio and a nice beach was about 50 feet to the left of the patio. The pool and spa were wonderful as well as the gas BBQ's available in the pool area. As there were two 18 year olds in our group it was nice that 'town' was within easy walking distance from our unit - they could walk in and shop or grab a snack without an adult (who was authorized to drive the rental car) having to drive them. I definitely would recommend this property to a friend or relative.

This is our second time renting a home through Kona Coast Vacations and both have been great. Photos of the home are a good representation of the rental. The kitchen was well stocked and the grill was in perfect. Will use Kona Coast Vacations again if we return to the Big Island.

Perfect directions given. Condo was presented exactly as appeared on line. Well appointed with beach towels, cooler, and beach chairs. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook with and was organized.

No problems at all. Just wish we had stayed longer. Highly recommend this Condo to everyone. Did a night snorkel with manta Ray's, with my kona adventures thru groupon, it was absolutely amazing saw 12 manta Ray's and normally people only see between 2 to 4. Highly recommend this company too.

super comfy accommodations and nice staff!

Very good service from Kona Coast Vacations. Very responsive to our requests. We had a great stay at Kona Isle E21.

Amazing home! If/when we come back with a large group we will definitely book again! The home was absolutely beautiful, there was plenty of room for our family, and the amount of amenities were extravagant. Loved!

This is a truly beautiful place. We enjoyed every minute of our stay at Ali'i Villas. The directions were perfect. We had no trouble finding it. The view was fantastic from the lanai. We loved eating our breakfasts there and watching the sunset. There were guidebooks provided, Hawaiian music CDs along with everything we needed to have a fantastic time. It is about a mile from Kona for those who like to walk. We did it several times.

The grounds are beautiful. Loved the saltwater pool. The views are fantastic.Our room was awesome. Loved the hawaian decor.

A very nice and comfortable stay. The KCV Team was friendly, available and very responsive. We would use KCV for a rental again in the future.

We had a great stay! The location, comfort, views, and amenities were awesome! And Kona Coast vacations customer service was beyond exceptional. We loved the concierge services and felt like they really cared to make our vacation amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay, clean,quiet and good location.

Every family/couple has their own room and bathroom. Extremely clean and well organized. The backyard and pool was the cherry on top.

We loved our stay in Kona! Had an amazing trip and accommodations were stellar. The view from house was spectacular and my family enjoyed every minute of it. Wish we would have made it a longer trip, always next time. David was more than helpful and responded immediately with anything we had questions about. We would most definitely come back. Thank you for everything!

Nice large rooms. Very clean. Pool is good size. Kitchen and separate dining can accommodate a large group. Nice to have beach equipment in garage.

Property was as advertised. In great condition. Lovely neighborhood, great location and stunning views. Bedding comfortable, House well stocked. I would come back again.

This was the second time we've enjoyed staying at the K1 villa. The first time (two years ago) was very enjoyable, but this year, after substantial renovations to the unit, our stay was thoroughly enjoyed by all five of us in the new luxurious setting. This place has all the amenities one can ask for on a Hawaiian vacation, including a variety of close by beaches, a swimming pool, shops and other tourist attractions.

We had a wonderful vacation in this beautiful home. Eight adults all had plenty of room to make our own. The bedrooms were nice and cool, the pool and hot tub and lanai area was so comfortable it made it very hard to get up and explore the island. Loved the large kitchen for cooking. We had a dinner party one night with 13 guests total and had plenty of room and cookware, etc. to make and serve our meal. The location is so convenient. My husband competed in the 70.3 Ironman and we also went on diving and snorkeling adventures, luau's and went shopping and found everything easy to get to. The privacy and security of the beach was nice and the guards all helpful and nice too. I hope we get to return to this house again one day.

We absolutely loved our stay at this unit! We had the best views in the entire complex and to walk out to the ocean every morning and night was exactly what we imagined. The lanai with the dining table was perfect for breakfast. Although it was nice and cool in the mornings, we wish it had air conditioning but it wasn't a big deal, thank you for providing fans! And everything else we needed, even cooking oil!! That was a plus for cooking breakfast. The coffee maker was so nice and all the swimming stuff was wonderful, thank you so much! They provided everything: hairdryer, flat iron, soap, shampoo, towels, beach towels, SNORKELING GEAR, coffee maker, sugar, salt, laundry detergents and dryer sheets! I named those because I packed them and shouldn't have. Made my luggage heavy when I could have left them at home. The pullout couch is surprisingly comfy and it wasn't mentioned in the description so it was a plus! No problems of bugs like other reviewers said just birds chirping in the morning. We will definitely be booking the same place again in the future. So close of a walk to secret tide pools at the other end of the resort near the public beach. Only downfall is, one week was too short, wish we could've stayed longer. Mahalo for everything!!

Good location and very well maintained place. We had a little issue with the kitchen sink and was taking care immediately by the host. Excellent communication. I highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was incredibly clean, even all of the outdoor flooring. It is just as beautiful as the photos. The pool was great, and we also really enjoyed the spa hot-tub, which was fun to hang out in. Kona Coast Vacations was very organized and has a well-tuned process for everything. We would definitely rent with them again!

The condo we stayed in was excellent and very well-maintained. Definitely would repeat staying there.

The house is as pictured and was absolutely perfect for a family group which included 6 and 9 year old children and grandma. Convenient access through the garage with a hose nearby for keeping sand out of the house. All the furnishings were top quality as were the decorations. Location is great for beaches and trips to anywhere on the island. The large pool is beautiful and well maintained with very comfortable outside furniture. The erupting volcano created some vog in the Kona area but it did not bother us....we found blue skies and sun by traveling a bit north. A predawn trip to see the lava flow by boat was amazing . Fairwinds does a great night snorkel with the Manta Rays and Kona Coast Vacations, which manages the property, was great to deal with both before and during our stay. If asked for any way in which this rental home could be improved, I would suggest a shop vac in the garage for cleaning the inevitable sand collection out of the car. This review is from a frequent renter of family vacation properties and I will say that Hawaiian Honu house is amomg the best.

We love this location near Keauhou Shopping Center and with a nice view of Kahaluu. It’s a quiet building and the unit was clean and comfortable. Kitchen is well furnished. Everything was great.

Kona Coast Vacations is the way to go for booking. Its less expensive and they go out of their way to accommodate all questions, needs and concerns. All of the properties were immaculately clean! (We booked 4 different condos as we had a rather large party) Each unit had various recreational gear, coolers, snorkeling, boogie boards, beach chairs etc. Will definitely book with Kona Coast again

The house is large, spread out with a big well stocked kitchen. The pool was much smaller in person than it looked in the photos. But it was comfortable and it ended up working just fine for our group. Location to the beach was good, walking from the driveway to the beach in a couple of minutes. Location to great restaurants, Kona Brewery, shopping was all very close. The house was clean, big lanai for entertaining and well equipped in a gated community. It is a bit dated and a few things have seen more than normal wear and tear but with our large group it worked well. One draw back is the large ball field on the other side of the pool fence so it can get loud in the evenings and weekends.The management group (Kona Vacations) was excellent! They deserve a 10 on the rating scale! They answered so many questions both by email and by phone. I got to talk to a helpful person each time I called. I never had to leave a voicemail and wait for a call back. The person that answered the phone always figured out and fixed any issues that I had. And ten days after leaving the rental I realized that I had left two important things behind. The owner of the company personally went to the house to find the items and they were kind enough to overnight them to us. They were pleasant and helpful.

Beautiful location and the house had wonderful amenities!

Great location in Kona and great living space.

Perfect vacations! The place had an breathtaking view of the beautiful golf course with the see at the horizon. We enjoy having our breakfest sitting at the balcony and apreciating this view and the birds singing. The place was very confortable, clean and fully equipied! Totaly reccomend!!

We enjoyed it and would stay again!

A spacious, clean and very well appointed top-floor unit in a comfortable set of condos right across the small lake from the King's Shops in Waikoloa. The unit is in one of the smaller buildings, so we didn't hear any other tenants, but it is above the pool/central area of the complex, so there was a fair amount of activity below. Kona Coast was attentive...

Excellent location and well appointed with amazing views of the ocean and convenient access to Turtle Beach. Being 2.5 miles from downtown Kona, it's a spirited walk into town for an iced Kona brew or a 2.5 mile walk south to an amazing snorkeling location. We had a very relaxing vacation and the accommodations couldn't have been more suited to our needs.

We recently vacationed at Kona Nalu 203. The condo is comfortable, clean, well equipped and beautifully appointed. The lanai was where we spent the evenings watching the spectacular sunsets. Sleeping with the sound of waves in the background was incredible. The volcano did not affect our time in Kona, the trade winds kept the air shoreline clear. We watched turtles in tide pools out front while having our morning coffee. We truly love the island and would visit again and stay here for the quiet, private and romantic qualities of the place.

Wonderful stay! Our group of 9 fit perfectly, and we could have easily added 1 more (1 person had private room). Loved using the lanai for breeze and could hear ocean all throughout the house. Kitchen was very well-appointed, and we made good use of it. Loved the poolside BBQ and open floor plan. The guesthouse onsite was also great. We never needed the extra kitchen, but it was a nice private space for 2 of the people in our party to share. This house is great because you can be together with your large group and still have your own private spaces. Would especially recommend for a multigenerational family group or 2 families together. Would stay again!

Good location for us (2 teenagers traveling with us - an older couple). Nicely decorated and everything we needed. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub and beach across the street. Would stay here again. Liked the arrangement of the 2 bedrooms being on opposite ends of the condo.

This review is for the property at IO Way in Konya, HI I’ll just put the bottom line up front. If this property is within your budget just book it. It’s spotlessly clean and everything is very high quality and high end. It’s well furnished with lots of extras. The infinity pool and spa are wonderful. The master suit is huge. The bathroom has dual rainfall shower heads and a glass door leads to an outdoor shower! (See photo). The view is awesome and the landscaping makes you feel like you are staying in a botanical garden. This property is something that a movie star would book. I would add that this is for responsible adults. It was completely quiet at night. No dogs barking, no car sounds, no slamming doors, no music, nothing.

Perfect in every way! Everything we needed was there. C-35 was nicely decorated. The ocean view from the balcony was way better than a peek a boo view. The grounds are immaculate. Parking was assigned. Location was perfect. Best to have auto. A million thanks!!

We had a great time on Hawaii. The condo was well equiped, very clean, quiet and directly on the ocean. In the morning, we could hear the waves and the birds. It was very relaxing. There was everything we need for the beach too.

Our stay at Nani Kahakai, Kailua Kona was incredible. Beautiful home, very clean, comfortable, had all the necessities we would have had in our own home to make our stay very pleasant. Definitely, will stay there again. Mahalo, Kona Coast Vacations!

beautiful place. Outstanding ocean view. lacking complete privacy between rooms, due to wall that do not go up to ceiling.

Quiet, super clean, beautiful views, huge lanei, easy access/parking as well! We had lots of extra linens and pillows as well as an amazingly well stocked kitchen! This place is out of the direct hustle of Kona but super close! Pools are a bit small and nothing special, but if you are planning to explore the whole area it is a good hub!

It is a very cozy apartment, which is tiptop decorated! The pool is also nice and comfortable. From the balcony you can watch the waves. We liked it very much.

Alii Point 12 is all it said. This home is spectacular . It is off the road and very quiet. The views are gorgeous from so many areas of the house. Opening the living room doors/screens fully open makes you not want to even leave the house. Watching the boats, snorkelers, rowers and even saw some dolphins. We couldn't stop taking pictures. The house is very clean (and I am very particular when it come to that). Kitchen is well equipped. The downstairs hallway closet is a full of extra towels and has beach towels. There is plenty of beach stuff in the garage, chairs, snorkels, fins........ equipped for all ages. We were there with 3 couples and plenty of room for all and them some. We ventured on the rocks and one snorkeled, but advisable for only adult experienced snorkelers. The location is great. Short ride into town and in less than an hour you can visit many different resorts and beautiful beaches. A few of the lights in the house were burned out and 2 of the ocean lights on seawall, but not a big deal. Fabulous place.

The rental was very comfortable and well equipped. The décor was tasteful and unexpected items like boogey boards, swim fins, goggles and coolers were found in the linen area. The beds were outstanding and we slept better then at home. The manager was very helpful and friendly.

Everything was clean, quiet and orderly. We went in May, so having no A/C wasn't an issue. Lots of ceiling fans. The lenai is awesome and the golf course wasn't crazy while we were there. Very centrally located to all things “Kona”.

This house was amazing! The amenities provided were beyond what was advertised and the pictures DO NOT do the house justice. We were so impressed by the layout and view. Communication with Kona Coast Rentals was great. Went with family. It was perfect for our family of five. Highly recommend.

This is an absolutely beautiful home that come with all the amenities you may need on a trip to Hawaii. The house was fully equipped and had an amazing view. It was very comfortable and fresh.

Loved the cleanliness of this place. Beautiful view from the wrap around balcony. Pleasant surprise, there is a running/bike trail on the road in front of the condo. I ran each morning both directions. In 1.5 miles is a beautiful beach and a great restaurant is only 500 feet from the condo. Definitely recommend this place to stay.

Clean and comfortable place. Stocked with things that we needed but didn't think about bringing like a cooler and ice packs. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals when not eating out. Conveniently located across from a great snorkeling site. It was a good base for us to explore the rest of the island. Thanks Kona Coast Vacations for a great stay.

What a great place! We loved it. Especially the spectacular lanai looking over the ocean. Amazing!

Great space. Plenty of room for all of us. Had all our meals on the patio overlooking the ocean. Stocked with everything you'll need. Would definitely book again or recommend.

One of the best AirBnB's we have had! Perfect house for our family that included 3 couples and one child. Beautiful outdoor space with spacious patio and amazing pool! We loved that the pool had an adjoining hot tub where you could turn on the hot water as needed. The pool temperature was very comfortable (I personally dislike cold pools!). The whole house was spotless clean!! Spacious kitchen and dining area for family dinners. Outdoor shower was a neat touch. The view was spectacular! Overall, super positive experience!! Would definitely return and would highly recommend.

Great accommodation and view. The amenities were also very inclusive and communication with the host was excellent and quick. I appreciated the small touches like washing soap for clothes and handy notes here and there within the rental unit. Everything was clean and orderly upon arrival. I would recommend this to any friend and family member.Thank you so much for making our vacation super relaxing and easy

Well-appointed and spacious unit in a quiet residential neighborhood roughly 12 minutes from town (driving). Nearby: Golf, rock Beach, and numerous restaurants. This is a good choice if you want a quiet space. It is not really walking distance to the ocean.

Great location just across from the beach, which has wonderful snorkeling. Quiet and peaceful at night and in the morning.

We were on the island of Hawaii for a wedding at the Hilton. This unit was a wonderful place to stay with easy access to everything we needed. The unit was clean and just as described. The only thing missing was a pathway to the pool from the unit since we were technically steps away from it but had to go around the building to get to the pool. It was not a big deal though. We loved visiting the petroglyphs trail nearby the King's shopping mall. The only thing missing was a sandy beach but then we are spoiled by usually going to Maui and having beaches at our door! Yes, we would stay here again if we came to the island. Absolutely lovely home.

The location of the apartment was ideal with the west facing balcony we could see the beautiful sunset every single day. The apartment was clean and spacious and was close to all the good restaurants. Would definitely stay there again

We had a great time and found our Kona riviera #203 unit to be perfect- quiet, clean, comfortable well-equipped, and conveniently located! VOG masked those beautiful Hawaiian sunsets, but we still had a great time and will come back!

I was traveling by myself, so I was looking for a small quiet place to work on a writing project. This unit was ideal for that purpose. The unit and the complex its in are beautifully landscaped. Its very peaceful. The unit is quite small, so I wouldn't recommend it for any more than two people. The complex also has a recently upgraded swimming pool that's perfect. The unit does not have air conditioning but it has four ceiling fans that keep it comfortable. The furnishings and decor are worn and somewhat faded, but this was not a negative for me. In fact, I've already reserved the unit for two visits later this year and next. The property management company was exceptionally helpful and responsive on two minor items that came up.

This is a very comfortable condo - well- equipped and the ceiling fans were wonderful to keep the place cool. The complex is very quiet and located close to a good shopping centre. Our only issue was that new neighbors moved in the unit above and they were quite noisy, We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay there again!!

Property is is very well maintained. Condo was recently remodeled and very comfortable. View was great. Enjoyed watching the boats coming and going especially the outriggers practicing. Would defiantly return here and would have no problem referring a friend. Broke de mouth restaurant is a great place to enjoy real Island food at reasonable prices.

This was my third visit to the Big Island and I couldn’t have been happier! The condo was amazing! The time we had was great! If we come back, we want to book with you again!

Our stay was wonderful! The unit is very comfortable and well equipped! We enjoyed the patio and outdoor space immensely. The sound of the waves and the wonderful breezes lulled us to sleep. I will definitely return! Mahalo

What a great place to stay! The condo had all we needed and more. We spent time every day on the lounge chairs by the water, and several days at the pool. We used the bbq one night and it was great. Our own parking spot and AC was very nice too! Kona and west Hawaii is beautiful and we will be back!

This house is perfect for three couples or a family. We stayed with our two adult children and their spouses. The upstairs living area is fantastic! The kitchen is large, very clean and well equipped. A large kitchen island makes it easy to prepare meals for a group. The very comfortable living area opens fully (with disappearing windows/walls to the large balcony lanai making the entire living area flow to the outside. We loved that. There is a large dining table on the lanai and comfortable patio furniture. What a relaxing setting to enjoy family, meals and scenery. Overall the house is very clean and well kept. (We've stayed at 12-15 VRBO homes in various locations throughout the years and this one rates in the top two). The people at the management company (Kona Coast Vacations) are great - friendly and helpful. They left a basket of Hawaiian goodies upon our arrival. They booked an activity for us, checked in after the first day to be sure everything was OK, and delivered clean beach towels when we couldn't figure out how to work the dryer (it was operator error!) The town of Kona is nearby for shopping and restaurants. A few things to be aware of: there is an elevator so you don't have to lug your luggage and groceries up two flights of stairs, although we were challenged a bit with getting it to work properly - but again, the Kona Coast people are a phone call away and very responsive. There is room for two cars to park under the house but it takes two people to get a car out of the driveway - one to drive the car and the other to hold traffic on the road so the driver can back out. The street is a little busy but you don't notice it at all inside the house because the house faces the water. Overall, this is a perfect house in a perfect location.

Our experience was top notch. The management company, the couple of times we called, answered the phone each time to personally answer questions. This day and age it is almost unheard of, very impressive. We travel all over the world and stay at this type of accommodations. This unit was definitely the most clean place we've seen in a very long time. Everything we looked for in the kitchen was available, very well equipped. Sitting on the lanai was just heavenly. In the morning sun we could see all the fish swimming around the lava rocks. The property is as represented in the ad. We would definitely stay here again.

The condo was very clean and ready for out stay. Condo was well maintained and nicely updated. David was fabulous with everything from booking activities to making sure everything in the condo was what we needed. The king size bed was very comfortable and the central AC was great to have. Some nights we kept the windows in the bedroom open to go to sleep to the sound of the waves, but when it was a little warm we ran the AC which worked great. We snorkeled with the dolphins, saw the Manta's at night and did a fishing trip and a helicopter ride, all of which David did a spectacular job arranging. My only constructive criticism would be to let people know there is a closet behind the front door that has a laundry basket, cleaning supplies and small coolers. We only found this the morning we were heading out. Also high top chairs on the patio would be nice so you can see better over the railing, but that may be a personal preference. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay while visiting Kona.

Our stay was very enjoyable. The house is extremely well equipped and offers generous space for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect. There is a nice view on the golf course, shops and restaurants are near by. The access to the beach and to the local snorkeling spots are easy and permits are included. Geographically and strategically the house is well positioned. Access to all tourist attractions is no problem and the distances are small. Maintenance and service were excellent. Unfortunately the architects have positioned the ACs of the two neighboring houses with a direct view onto the lanais (ground floor and 1st floor) of the unit. Instead of being able to profit from the exceptional view the noise if the ACs is accompanying you. It is unfortunate, but it does not diminish all the other exceptional qualities of the unit.

A little outdated, but very clean and comfortable. Everything you need for an enjoyable vacation.

Very nice, clean and great location.

Very nice home, great location less than 2 miles outside downtown Kona. Yard, and pool very well maintained. House spotless. Would definitely stay again.

Our family enjoyed this beautiful home so much! Every thing about it was perfect, we enjoyed coffee every morning on the Lanai to dinner in the evenings, listening to the ocean and watching the gorgeous sunsets. Thank you for a vacation that we will all never forget.

Aloha Place is a beautifully designed, landscaped and equipped property. We would recommend it to anyone without hesitation. David, the concierge, was great to deal with, and provided information and reservations, whenever we needed.

What a beautiful place! We lived waking up and having our coffee on the lanai every morning and then coming back for the spectacular sunsets every night. The condo was great, everything we needed. Thanks for a great trip!

With only one exception, we were very pleased with the room, the amenities, cleanliness, and the support of Kona Coast Vacations. Our concierge (David) was particularly helpful, both with the room and arranging outside activities. The view from the deck was perfect, with a clear view of the ocean and the constant sound of the waves. The well-equipped kitchen was very convenient when we didn't want to go out, and we were pleased with the condiments, spices, and other incidentals left in the cabinets by previous visitors. The one negative was the inability to control the temperature. The room was sweltering when we arrived, and we were unable to cool it down during our entire stay. We knew in advance there was no air conditioning, but we expected to get flow-through ventilation to at least cool the room at night. We even tried stacking up some chairs and drawers to use as a pedestal to get a floor fan up to the level of the bedroom windows (about 6ft above floor level), but that only helped a little. Neither my husband nor I were able to sleep very well for our 6 nights there. If not for the temperature problem, which was more than a minor inconvenience, we would have given our stay a perfect score (5 stars).

Great condo. with minor annoyances. Cooking breakfast on the stove filled the whole place with smoke. Lighting was minimal in the kitchen. AC was loud and ineffective. Bathrooms, laundry and showers were very nice. Lots of towels too. We enjoyed the warm pool.

This was a good location and a nice place. We truly enjoyed our time.

Thought this place was great. Only a 5+ minute walk to a bunch of restaurants and 10 minutes to the heart of Kona. Beautiful view, good customer service, etc. The unit itself isn't super fancy, but it's clean and comfortable. The pool area is pretty good as well, and was never busy when we were there.

We had a good stay at this condo- great layout, fully equipped and very clean! They provided an extensive information pack with lists of great beaches, tips etc. and printed instructions on all the remote controls for the condo. Excellent location with a gas station and shopping centre right across the road. Only down side was the ongoing site works and the workers. When we first drove into the parking lot we had found that our designated parking bay was occupied by a worker. We asked if he could park elsewhere as we were checking in but he was very rude and did not want to move it. He very reluctantly did so in the end- it wasn't the welcome we were hoping for. We had workers refurbishing a couple of condos which made it very noisy in the mornings, with work starting at 8- drilling, hammering, loud music. And the gardener blowing grass and leaves right next to me by the pool as I was taking a phone call, I moved and he continued to blow dirt on my laptop... Such a shame that the impolite and inconsiderate workers affected my experience with Kona Coast Vacations! I'm sure the works will be done soon, other than that, great location close to the highways and gas station, very spacious and clean condo, OH! and a beautiful pool area!!

The view was great from the lanai!!

The pictures and description are right on. I would not think twice about returning to this house for a few more weeks of relaxation. Close enough for quick access to town, but just far enough away for peace and tranquility. The privacy the back yard provides is perfect, the pool and hot tub great, the view unsurpassed. There is nothing I would change. Do yourself a favor and book this house through Kona Coast Vacations.

We had the absolute best time. The condo we stayed in was more than I ever expected. It had anything and everything you needed it was absolutely the best. Word of mouth is everything and I’ve already given two strangers the link with exactly where we stayed. We will stay in this condo every time we come to Kona. Thank you so much

This property’s spectacular views, unique, vibrant landscaping and clean, spacious rooms provided the perfect setting for a wonderful family vacation. Relaxing in the hot tub and using the outdoor shower were highlights and the location was perfect for watching the beautiful Hawaii sunsets. It was truly outstanding in every way. Date of Stay: 5/1/18 to 5/11/18

You can't beat the view! We love being right on the ocean and falling asleep listening to the sound of the waves. The unit is stocked with everything you need to for the beach- sunscreen, beach mats, umbrella and is located a just few minutes drive from downtown Kona. We didn't want to ever leave!

A great condo with a well stocked kitchen and lanai perfect for lounging. I have a hard time finding a bed firm enough for my back so the master bedroom was heavenly for me. The complex is quiet (which we loved) and just up the way from the Sheraton and Keauhou Bay where you can watch the boats come in and out, or charter one to swim with the manta rays. We loved being off the beaten path of Kona so this place was nearly perfect for us.

Great location at the very end of Ali'i drive....gated community with good pool area and a quiet atmosphere. KTA market just up the road for snacks and groceries.... along with some restaurants and shops. Condo is fantastically outfitted kitchen wise.. we mostly cooked in due to dietary needs and the abundance of fresh fruits and produce... the space is very comfortable. Bedrooms are booth up a short flight of stairs along with a full bathroom including a tub. One bath with a walk-in shower is downstairs.. nice lanai with resident geckos to watch! Short stroll down to the shoreline to watch the sunset.. no access to a beach, but that's not a big deal for us, as we like to explore the lovely beaches here. FYI , air conditioning costs $25 a day extra..and must be paid for for the entire time after it's activated. This was a first for me...& this is my 15+ trip to Kona. I understand that electricity is expensive and perhaps this is a new thing. We skipped it and just ran the fans.. only time it was problematic was sleeping...& really only two nights. All in all I give this place a thumbs up!!

It was a very nice, very comfortable place to stay! Super convenient to the marketplace and a great location for the resort and private beach club! The pictures do not do the house justice, it is beautiful!

This condo is kind of tucked away - a bit out of Kona, but has great amenities. Very clean, comfortable and well stocked. The lania has a view of the ocean. Maybe it was the time of year, but I was almost the only person using the pools and facilities and it was very quiet and peaceful. Very nice tidepools to look at from the salt water pool area. The salt water pool is awesome - but apparently they will be doing construction on it soon for a few months. I hope they don't change it too much - its pretty perfect as is.

I cannot begin to say enough positive things about the stay at this condo. It was off the charts awesome. The condo is right on Ali'i drive so you are in the heart of Kona. Go right and you can walk to lots of shops, go left and there are so many restaurants to choose from. Absolutely great location. And the views! Being on the 7th floor was great. We have 3 photographers in our group and made the most out of being in this location. Stunning sunsets and views all week. Cannot get too much better than this location. Now let's talk about the condo. Having two masters with private bathrooms was great. The home is beautifully decorated. The furniture is so comfortable. The addition of Apple tv and the awesome sound system was great. The kitchen was so well stocked with everything we needed to make breakfast and some dinners in was great. We even loved the toaster! Lots of towels. The A/C was great and kept us cool but we often shut it off and had the large sliding doors open for those great breezes and to hear the ocean. And the beds were so very comfy. Oh, and the waterfall shower upstairs was so relaxing. We had a couple of issues that were resolved the same day. The Kona Coast staff was incredibly accommodating and fixed everything within a couple hours. When we come back to Kona, I want to stay here again. Super rental. Mahalo for an awesome trip.

This distant ocean view condo was very nice. It was clean with nice decorations. Check in was easy with no need to go anywhere but to the condo. The golf course results in a little noise, but the nice lawns and views make up for it just fine. I found that they play pickleball on most days right across the street. I had brought my paddle and had a great time with the local players.

The condo is as advertised. I went solo, quiet location, safe area, close to Kona (a little far for me to walk but ample parking at Kona), nice pool etc...., the kitchen had everything, great ocean front view, no sand beach but sand beaches close by, nice natural volcanic rocks with lots of ocean wave action. Wonderful place, I "will" stay there again.....

We had a great stay at the condo. The property is well maintained and in a great location. The place was very lovely and the 3 balconies were great for enjoying coffee in the morning and a drink in the afternoon. The bathrooms are dated, but they were clean. (Pictures are accurate.)

This was the perfect spot for our young kids. They loved swimming in the pool everyday and there is a beach a short walk away with tide pools to explore. This is a great jumping off point to explore the entire island, we really enjoyed our week in Kona!

This unit in Kona was clean, well appointed, directly on the ocean, and comfortable. Kona Coast Vacations was a pleasure to work with , communication was excellent and they were always willing to assist in any way, Their best interest was making sure we enjoyed our stay!

Great location, nice amenities.

The condo was so beautiful, it was beyond expectations. The location is convenient to beaches, stores and the views are lovely. Kona Coast does a beautiful job of management and I would highly recommend this condo.Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

This is a lovely condo, great for a family. We had a restful stay.

This is an incredible home/condo. Any family would be happy here, or even a 'couples' vacation. We will definitely be back to this property in the future. Extremely nice, well maintained, clean and updated. You pretty much have 3 huge master bedrooms and an amazing living space. This property is close to the beach with great access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club. Only negative was that the community pool was closed during the month of May. This was a surprise to us, but the owner was very gracious in working it out for us. The pool area looks amazing, and I'm sure when it re-opens it will take this property from 5-Stars to 6..! (If only we could give it 6.) This was our first big family vacation to Hawaii and this property really helped make it special for us.

My wife and I rented this condo for 12 days in April and May. This is a very nice, clean, updated condo. The photos are accurate. It has the best ocean, city and mountain views of any condo in the complex. Several neighbors stated they wished they had our views. The most comfortable bed we've ever slept in. Plenty of parking. Some extras we didn't know about but were glad to have them: 3 portable fans, 4 beach towels, 2 folding chairs for the beach, beach umbrella, snorkel masks and snorkels, and tennis rackets. Our only real complaint is the condo was very hot in the afternoon and evenings. For some reason, there was no ocean breeze to cool the room. We closed the doors and windows and ran the bedroom air conditioner at night. The pool is nice but there were lots of kids when we were there. 2 hours of Marco - Polo can get old. Also, I missed the fact that there is no elevator and this is a third floor condo. Not that big of deal, but it may matter to some people. Kona Coast Vacations did a nice job communicating with us. Easy rental process. All in all, we would stay there again.

This was a fabulous place to stay!!! It was clean and well stocked with the essentials. It is an upscale property with nice furnishings and a fantastic pool. We had 6 people there and never felt like we were on top of each other. The patio is huge and very comfortable. It is located in a quiet neighborhood, but close to the action. Would definitely stay again!

We had an excellent stay. This condo was perfect for two couples. Exceptionally clean and had everything you could ever need: fully stocked kitchen -- nice pots & pans, kettle, rice cooker, blender, tupperware, spices, you name it (no sugar for obvious reasons) -- clean linens, beach supplies -- towels, chairs, boogie boards, cooler (only thing missing is an umbrella), extra linens, hangers, board games, and cards. The in-suite laundry was so useful and the condo's shared bbqs were great. We met such nice people while bbqing our supper. 🙂 Sitting on the balcony with our morning coffee watching the pods of dolphins was a highlight! The condo complex is a bit older but well maintained. Parking was never an issue. The location is fantastic! Just a quick 5 minute walk north and you're at the start of the main drag. Huggos is a must and it's so close! Magic Sands beach is a 6 min drive south. Beautiful sand and some decent waves. A/C works well in the main room but doesn't reach the back bedroom. There are plenty of fans so you can position them a certain way to help circulate the air. First few nights were warm but once we acclimatized to the Hawaiian air it was no problem at all. This place is worth every penny and I will certainly recommend it to friends and family.

Fantastic. Loved the location. Perfect for all explorations on the island. Lovely spot on the water. Didn't do any swimming here but looked like a great surf spot. The unit was great. Very clean and ample supplies including a few unexpected extras. The wifi didn't work for the unit but we had access to a different wifi network so overall no issue.

This home was absolutely delightful. Just gorgeous and the view was amazing for nightly sunsets. It had all the amenities one could need, including beach chairs and towels for the lovely beaches close by. One would actually have no need to leave the property other than reloading for food. There was plenty of room for all age groups with many areas to hangout in. Large home yet very comfortable homey feel Hawaiian style. Loved it. Thank You for a wonderful time as well as being professional from the beginning thru the end.... Mahalo

We did a lot of searching for a Condo in the general Kona area. We kept coming back to this unit and made our decision. We are so happy we did. The pictures are an accurate representation of the property, if fact it's nicer than shown. Perfect location right on the water for a beautiful view and the sound of the waves. We only experienced one maintenance issue (minor in nature). In the master bath the dual power switch for the overhead fan and it's light did not work. We reported this but it did not get fixed before we checked out. Other than that, everything else was wonderful. We plan on coming back in the future. Highly recommended.

Kona Coast Vacations

Everything about this place was amazing. My girlfriend and I would definitely return and stay here again!

We had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful. There is nothing like sitting on the lanai having freshly ground Kona coffee & watching a beautiful sunrise. Paradise !!!!

Perfect for family being on the 2nd floor and not having to worry about creating noise for anyone below with kids running. Walk to great snorkeling across the street and Kona only 15 minutes away. The house was clean, no one bothered us and comfortable. Would love to come back and stay again 🙂

The location/view (across from the beach) is superb and the on-site pool and hot tub were great. The condo itself was really beautiful as well. Would definitely stay again!

Would definitely come back. Just a delightful place. Close to town. Wonderful views. Relaxing. Would certainly recommend.

We had an absolutely amazing stay here! To mention just a few things that made it special: 1) location: 3 min walk to the beach, 3 min walk to the surf shop, 10-15 min drive to Kona, 2) atmosphere: smell of flowers that you start to forget after living in the city for too long, birds singing day and night, view of the ocean, sound of the waves that you can hear when falling asleep, 3) amenities: spacious living room, comfortable bedrooms, super clean bathrooms with nice towels, everything was working in the kitchen and we didn't miss a thing like utensils for grilling. Spacious deck with the ocean view made mornings so special and evening hangouts (with seafood freshly grilled right there on the deck:) unforgettable. Our towels didn't dry one night since it's pretty humid in Hawaii, and the beach towels in the apartment came in very handy. Thank you, Kona Coast Vacations team! We'll definitely be back!

Great place, spacious, ocean view. They don't have air conditioning, it's ok for us in May since it's not too hot and we are out most of the daytime

Would certainly stay here again when visiting the island

The condo was better than the pictures. Great location, very clean and huge! 2 big bedrooms and AC in each room. You are facing the ocean with only the pool between you and the waves. Very quiet and beautiful place. We would love to stay again.

Spectacular view of the coast from this unit. Good value for a stay along the Kona coast.

Our family of 4 (including 2 kids aged 3 and 1) stayed here for a week and had the best time. This place has everything going for it - fantastic views from pretty much every room in the house, all kinds of beach equipment (mats, chairs, snorkel stuff, life vests) to make going to the beach a much more enjoyable experience, tons of fantastic books to read if you decide to lounge around in the expansive Lanai and a fantastic kitchen that is well equipped. You truly feel like you are in a home and not just a vacation rental. The Home: Very well maintained home that was clean and easy to navigate. All switches are labeled (how great is that?) so you are not spending time hunting around trying to figure things out. There's lots of art around the house including sculptures, paintings etc. which makes you feel like you are surrounded by beauty both inside and outside. Our favorites were the 3D map of big island at the entryway, the Japanese bell at entrance, the sculptures in the Lanai among a few. The owners have also thought about the small details like leaving a pair of binoculars that let us observe a pod of Dolphins from the Lanai to truly amp up our experience. Customer service; The A/C in one of the units had broken just a day or so before we arrived and the customer service was excellent. We called up the manager and they immediately sent someone over with fans because it would take a while to fix the A/C. The property managers were always available to answer our questions (like where to put trash etc.). Attractions: Ali'i point 12 is at a great location for activities. The downtown area is a short drive away so we could go every evening to take a walk and hang out. The Marketplace with some interesting finds is right outside this place so it's good to wander there if you're not in the mood to go to the beach. And a TON of the most beautiful. sandy beaches are just a short drive away. Our favorite beaches were Kapaluu'u beach for snorkeling, white sands beach for boogie boarding, Mauna Kea and Kua bay for crystal clear gentler waters and so many more! We wanted to go to Volcanoes national park but it was unsafe due to eruptions and earthquakes. Ali'i point 12 is on the far side of the island from the volcano so we always felt safe. Throughout our stay, we truly felt that like Ali'i point 12 was our home and not just a vacation rental! I would highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to have a stress free vacation.

Lovely property, ocean views, lots of useful amenities, great customer service. Very helpful and user friendly process.

When you see a rental that looks as amazing as the Ailina house - you may not believe that it is as good in person. However it was WAY better than we could have imagined! We were a group of 4 and this house was the perfect cornerstone for our adventures on the big island. You could easily stay by the picturesque pool all day - with adorable gold dust geckos hanging out nearby it kept all of us entertained with our morning coffee. The sunsets over the pool are also dazzling. We chose to make two day trips to Hilo during our stay, 1 for a day of waterfalls and the other for Volcano National Park. The drive was about 1.5 hour each way and it was worth it. There were also tons of activities nearby, like the Kona brewing company, magic sands beach, a site that offered night manta snorkeling! As if the trip wasn’t amazing enough, we have to give a special Mahalo to Laurie with Kona Coastal Vacations! One of my friends left her phone at the house and Laurie went above and beyond to return it to us as quickly as possible! We will definitely be back to the Big Island again and return to the Ailina house!

The condo was Great! Well stocked kitchen, snorkel equipment, beach chairs and umbrella.....so much more! It is in a great location and the view from the Lanai was wonderful! Very comfortable! My only downside would be that there was a few gaps (openings) in the blinds in the Master. This caused privacy issues when people were out on the Lanai and we were sleeping in or getting dressed! Also the railing upstairs along the windows is Very Loose! We had to rearrange sleeping and have our younger Granddaughter sleep with her parents due to the safety issue. I noticed another reviewer had complained months ago regarding this and we thought it would have been repaired.....it was not! I really hope that this is repaired before someone gets hurt! But overall we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the space! It would have given 5 stars if the railing was repaired! It is close enough to the busy town area....close to Captain Cook and to many beaches. We had such a wonderful vacation and were able to show our family and friends why we LOVE the Big Island so much! Mahalo!!

What a great time!!!!

We had an excellent stay at sea village #1101...the location was excellent..the views were spectacular. It had all the amenities. We were extremely pleased and are looking forward to booking this place again.

CHECK-IN Kona Coast Vacations was excellent in providing directions on how to get to the property from the airport and how to get into the property. The condo was very clean upon arrival. PROPERTY CONDITION: The beds were all very comfortable. All of the appliances worked. The thermostats were locked so you could not put the temperature below 74 degrees. The breaker to the outside fridge was taped down so the fridge would not operate. They had all the kitchen utensils that you would need. BBQ on the deck worked well (igniter was not working, but they had a manual lighter there for you to light it). There was lots of toilet paper, garbage bags, dishwasher and kitchen soap provided. There were some spices as well. No cooking oils or any other perishable items. The coffee pot was a standard 12 cup maker with a reusable filter. No single serve coffee maker. The internet in the condo was quite good. It was a bit congested first thing in the morning and in the evening (when I'm sure other people in the complex were using it), but overall it was better than what I've experienced in other rentals. The handheld vacuum did not work (battery would not charge). The main vacuum did not work well (at the end of its lifespan!). It would overheat after using it for 5 minutes and would shut off. AMENITIES: The condo pool was great for the kids. It had a nice fitness center. The complex is very close to a small grocery store and a few restaurants. It would not be an easy walk to the beach club -- it is about a 5 minute drive. The private beach club was great. The condo provided a beach umbrella, beach cooler, two small boogie boards (for kids under 6), 2 beach mats. There was some snorkel gear (some of it was in need of repair/replacement). There were no beach chairs (Tommy Bahama style that are common in most vacation rentals in Hawaii). AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: We did encounter quite a few pests in the condo. We found three cockroaches during the day (one in the upstairs bedroom closet, one in the laundry room, and one in the living room area). There was also a small ant infestation around the kitchen sink and in the one main floor bathroom. They had a lot of ant traps/killer under the kitchen sink and in the pantry, so I suspect its a long-standing problem. There were also a few baby geckos that we found in various places in the condo that we re-located outside. DEPARTURE Amy from Kona Coast vacations was extremely helpful in sending us an item we forgot.

This is the second time that my wife and I have stayed in unit 212 . It is a home away from home with everything that we could possibly need! The balcony looks out on a little "Garden Of Eden" and you get a side view of the ocean! We loved their large salt water pool,and b.b.g. area were they light the tiki torches every evening at sunset. They also have a nice fresh water pool very close to our unit. We liked the local because we were far enough away from the "hubbub" and yet only a 5 minute drive to downtown Kona. We look forward to our next visit

This home is amazing and we especially enjoyed the pool. I brought my own pool skimmer because there were usually a lot of bugs in the pool. The Polaris vacuum was not as robust as before. The teather does not float anymore and it would get tangled up and didn't clean the corners or climb the stairs. The house is well maintained and the kitchen is very well stocked. I was there during the 6.9 earthquake and the house shook and rolled and water sloshed out of the pool, but nothing fell off the walls and there were no cracks or damage. The concierge was helpful for my guests. We love the location. The view is the best.

This is a pleasant little unit in an older, well-maintained complex. It was thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need as far as the kitchen, towels, bedding, cleaning supplies, board games etc. (Almost comically so- we didn't get the chance to make waffles or roast a turkey but we could have!) Nice cross-draft during the day (plus ample ceiling fans) and AC to cool it down at night. Pretty ocean view from the patio, which we enjoyed taking our meals on. Unit was clean and in good shape, nothing fancy but an excellent value for the price. Location is great, central Kona location but just outside of the main Alii drive craziness. Our hosts were communicative, we had all the info we needed, and check-in was a breeze. The complex seemed really well looked-after. They were painting one wing while we were there, plus there was landscaping going on, so it got a little noisy during the day, but, well, that's stuff that needs to get done. Work was done at reasonable hours. Pool was pretty small but looked pristine. Nice shoreline area for relaxation. All in all: value, comfort, location, amenities! Would return without hesitation.

This place is a great value. Very close to the restaurants and shops of Kona, and a short drive from Captain Cook, another cool spot to check out. Loved having the beach waves right out the front door. The only (small) complaint I had was that the shower head was in need of cleaning from some mold (understandable in the Hawaii humidity) but other than that the place was great and would highly recommend!

Beautiful unit over looking the golf course and ocean views. Very spacious, clean and comfortable. It has everything one needs for a perfect vacation. Furniture, bed and kitchen all are of good quality. Will stay here again if visiting Kona again.Thank for a great stay. Appreciate the details you had sent in the email about the directions and check-in. The place was sparkling clean.

We loved the location. We spent much of our time sitting on the lanai watching dolphins and sunsets. Beautifully equipped kitchen. Helpful concierge.

Clean and well furnished, all needed cooking utensils avilable.

Great place right on the golf course. I have stayed in many places in the village...this is the cleanest and most comfy yet. Location???? The Village 800 feet above the resorts is soooooo nice. Much cooler and less humid. Pool here is nice with no crowds. 15 minutes from Hapuna, Beach 69 and Mauna Kea (just ask for a pass). Do not hesitate to book this place.

We stayed in this condo for 4 amazing weeks. The unit has an amazing location and is absolutely stunning. The Lanai is huge and the view of the sunsets every night was breathtaking. Dolphins were also out front everyday and the snorkeling is good there as well. The only issue we had was with the tv. We like to watch the news and found that often the channels weren't available. We highly recommend this unit.

Exceeded expectations. Steps away from some of the best shore accessible snorkeling on the island. Elevator to transport luggage and people was a major perk. Beautiful decks and views all accompanied by the peaceful sounds of the surf.

It was a lovely condo, we had a great time. As it was our 3rd visit to the Big Island we basically stayed in the Kohala area (one day trip to Captain Cook area). We would recommend 2404 Waikola Colony Villas.

Everything worked out just great. We had one issue with the second bedroom TV when we first arrived. However, after an email was sent to Kona Coast Vacations, they sent someone within two hours to rectify the matter. I would recommend them in future and would also use their services again. Thank You!

What can I say? Everything was perfect! The home was clean, classy and extremely well appointed with everything we needed to relax. We did cook several meals at the house and found everything we needed. The home owners should be commended for providing a truly superior experience. Kona Coast Vacations, the rental management company, was THE MOST PROFESSIONAL management company I have ever worked with.

Great location. Very clean and with a great lanai!

My mother and I had a fantastic time in this beautiful condo. It was well stocked and very clean. I only had one minor issue with the sliding glass door getting stuck but someone came and fixed it right away. Having 2 bathrooms and the Murphy bed made the one bedroom seem like a 2 bedroom. We would stay here again thank you so much.

My first visit to Kona for extended stay . Property was amazing. Listing is 100% accurate and was very clean and well maintained. Easy to get to from airport and a great location. There were six of us and didn't feel crowded or lacking in privacy. Highly recommend this property. What a great value. We took morning walks; choice of beaches within 10-15 minutes. Golf right out the back door on ninth hole. Great grocery store 2 minutes away. Lanai was the best for evenings of relaxation and great card games. Love love loved it and will visit again!!! Cannot say enough.

I’ve stayed here every year for 5 years. Each time it’s been a lovely update to the condo. The ease to the beaches and snorkeling are amazing. Access to the swimming pools , golf course, and jacuzzis are unparalleled. For a FABULOUS 6-girl gathering or small family, this is IT.

Just as pictures show, beautiful view right on water, see and hear the waves all day and night. Unit has all you need, including beach umbrella, few beach chairs and some boogie boards. Kona concierge was great and easy to work with.

Nice and huge townhome in Waikoloa colony villas, close to the pool and BBQ's and everything we needed was there. Perfect for a family of four and well maintained for a reasonnable price for the area. The 2 pools are beautiful and clean. We really appreciate to find a boogie board, beach toys and a cooler. We also appreciate the help of David, we could ask him some questions and he answered and helped us quickly. Thank you.

Wonderful stay!

My husband and I were very pleased with our stay at Kona Reef A6. We enjoyed breakfast on the lanai every morning and you can't ask for a better place to enjoy the sunset. The condo was stocked with any dishes and furniture we needed. The bed was very comfortable and the bedroom was quiet. I was a bit concerned about the privacy as A6 is on the lower level. There was some foot traffic on the lawn, but nothing of concern. It was very convenient to be able to access the lawn and nearby beach without having to take stairs. Kona Reef was a very quiet and clean property. The condo was very convenient to downtown Kona and we were able to easily and safely walk to restaurants and check out the sites. We traveled all over the island during our stay and Kona Reef A6 was a perfect home base for our time on the Big Island.

What an amazing place! Very spacious, clean and convenient location. The pools were wonderful! We were very well taken care of both by the owners and by Kona Coast. They checked in on us to make sure we had what we needed. Very lovely time! Mahalo!

I would rate this accommodation 11/10. The communication from this rental was excellent! They provided us with easy directions to follow from the airport, and even allowed us early access into the property. We absolutely loved the proximity as well. We were able to quickly grab ubers into town for dinner and drinks, or enjoy a relaxing drive down the coast to Captain Cook. This rental is close to all of the popular destinations, but still a little out of the way for a peaceful night. Grabbing a poke bowl or plate from Da Poke Shack and taking it to your room to enjoy the view or beach is a MUST! This unit has amazing views of the ocean. You'll enjoy falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to some of the most spectacular sunrises.

We just spent a wonderful week at this amazing home. This was our first trip to Hawaii for a family holiday. Kona Coast vacation rentals were excellent to deal with, very friendly and prompt communication. The home is gorgeous, with a great pool and garden. It is as described, and spotlessly clean and well presented. The bedrooms are large with their own bathrooms, so there is plenty of space and privacy for families. We would definitely recommend this home and Kona Coast vacation rentals. The house is located near to a local shopping centre, but you will need a car to explore the island. We appreciated our welcome hamper too, thank you.

I appreciated being right across from White Sands Beach and the pool was nice. The condo itself was clean and the living area a good size. Even though it's not listed, there was a hair dryer and shampoo was provided. Water pressure was great and I was thankful for the AC. The photos were accurate -- while comfortable, the place is dated and could use a sprucing. Overall, my friends and I enjoyed our stay.

Great location in Kona. Amenities were great and space was accommodating.

This gorgeous home is by far the best property we have ever rented. It is well-stocked, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and has a great floor plan for two couples. Everything is in immaculate condition, including the lovely pool. We highly recommend this home for your stay in Kona.

Excellent apartment and amenities with brilliant communication. Highly recommended.
Nice quiet location far from the super touristy centre and close to supermarket

We loved the location. Condo was clean and well kept and would reccommend this property. We had no need to need the manager but the property was very well maintained.

Condo worked good for us. Very close to everything in Kona. We walked from the condo to the waterfront area where there are lots of restaurants. The condo was as advertised and had everything needed for our stay. It is a middle unit, so it is a little dark inside. The only thing that did not work was the fan out on the lanai. That would have been nice to have on the warm, humid days. Looks like it needs a complete replacement on the fan. A/C worked good, but as a note to the owners - putting your units under the counter/bamboo on the lanai is killing the units ability to move the air and will eventually cause a premature failure of the unit. This coming from the HVAC guy with our group. He is one of the largest installers of Daikins in the US. Pool was nice and hot tub was hot. BBQ area looked nice. We did not use it but several others were cooking out there. There is plenty of parking. We would stay here again.

Great accommodation and location. We couldn't seem to get the spa bath to work in the master suite but not a big issue as everything else was perfect...would recommend this accommodation to any keen on a stay on The Big Island!

Kona Coast Vacations

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was beautiful, clean and well stocked. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The views and sunsets were gorgeous. Our group enjoyed exploring the Big Island, a couple did an ATV tour, lots of snorkeling, the Manta Rays were amazing, a day at the Volcano, and of course the beaches! We would definitely recommend this property!

The condo with large sized, fully equipped, and ocean front - what else could one ask for. Close to town, has a pool and hot tub near by. Very nice. Would definitely recommend.

We loved our stay at Kona Reef. As a family of four, we like our space, and there was plenty! The apartment was well equipped and perfectly clean, and very comfortable, with everything we needed for a self catered holiday. The sea view was fantastic (and perfectly positioned for the stunning sunsets), and we really appreciated also being able to see down to the pool as well. It never got busy, but it was nice to see when other kids were around to go and play with. The kids spent a large amount of time at the lovely pool, which was always clean, and really convenient with bbqs and a hot tub. We enjoyed being able to walk down to shops etc. And the best beginner’s snorkelling (thanks for the tip David!) was just 10 mins drive away. We would return to this complex, and specifically this apartment, in a heart beat. Mahalo!

A home away from home with a much better view! From the private Lanai you look out onto the 9th hole of the golf course with the beautiful pacific in the back ground that gives you those magnificent sunsets. Well kept landscaping, pools, Jacuzzi and wild turkeys that wonder at times to say hello to you in the mornings. The condo is nicely decorated with comfy furniture ,beds and all the amenities you need in the kitchen. Grocery store and shopping close by. The beach is just a 10 minute drive. Its a lovely quiet community and I cant wait to go back and stay here again. I would recommend this place to all my family and friends ! We had a fabulous time.

Lovely townhouse style that was a perfect fit for our group. They provided all of the essentials including a well stocked kitchen with Tupperware, not frequently found in our stays at condominiums. Gorgeous master suite and lovely outdoor kitchen on one of the lanais. We grilled most nights! When you wanted to go out, the shops are a stones throw away.

We had an amazing vacation, with a house that was second to none. If you are looking for a home to relax in and enjoy the pool this is the house to do it in!

Kona is very humid so I was initially disappointed to learn that the coolest setting on the central air conditioner for this unit was for 74 degrees F (23 degrees C). But actually the system was very efficient at dehumidifying the entire unit, which made the 74 degrees quite comfortable. There were ceiling fans in every room which also helped greatly with cooling. The secure Wi-Fi was fast enough to stream videos. The complex provides a coin-op laundry. The instruction booklets in the unit implied that laundry detergent was available, but I could not find any. The local convenience stores did not carry detergents for single loads. Fortunately, I found some in Volcano Village (nowhere near Kona). The weather was rainy almost every day, so I did not make use of the available beach equipment. Overall, the unit was clean and well maintained, everything worked fine, and I could not have been more satisfied. I have no qualms recommending a stay here.

This is a beautiful property that overlooks the ocean. We saw whales and beautiful ocean sunsets. This is a short 2 min walk to the Pool Club. The kitchen is fully stocked with so many amenities. I highly recommend this property.

We had a great time staying at Colony Villas 303. The place is very clean and nicely decorated. There were lots of beach accessories which we really enjoyed. Had lots of fun boogie boarding! Location is perfect. Close to lots of beaches and activities. Colony Villas is a fairly quiet resort which we liked. Our kids loved the pool. We will definitely come again!

We have now found our best place on the Big Island to continue making memories on our generational family vacations. Your property presents island living at it’s best. Your home was so well equipped with quality inventory. As trivial as it sounds, you are the first vacation rental that provided more than 1 roll of paper towels and toilet paper.Thoughtfulness appreciated. We have been and will continue to share your website so that others can enjoy your ohana as much as we did. Thank you! Mark, Rebecca, Clara, Maddie Marty and Karen West Sacramento and Davis, CA

We were very impressed with the condo and the complex! It had everything we needed for our stay and more. The bed was really comfortable and the condo is updated and very nice. The complex is beautiful and well maintained. Our stay was everything we had hoped for! Thank you!

What an amazing condo to call out home base for 10 days on the big island. The space was perfect for us (2 adults and 1 child) and could have easily housed another couple and/or more kids. Kitchen is fully stocked and modern, beds super comfortable, everything in tip top shape. The condo comes with the little extras that are such a huge help for a vacation: pool floates, beach towels, cooler bag, chairs, etc. The lanai is huge and the view is even better than the photos! We enjoyed morning coffee and afternoon drinks out there every day and even saw whales breach! Golf course was quiet, mostly seems to be used on weekends and offers entertainment during the mornings on the lanai. 2 easy sets of stairs to get into the unit, easy to manage even with bags and beach gear. Nice breeze through the unit keeps it comfortable even when quite hot and humid outside. Condo is right on the main strip (Alli Dr), but on the quiet end - no road noise and great parking + easy access to both North and South of the island. Right near a great grocery store for your food and liquor, which is next to gas station. Great value here, would definitely stay again!

Start to finish, very nice experience. Beautiful house in a very quiet gated community. Great view of the ocean. Easy access to town and beaches. We had almost perfect weather and the location was central for our excursions. Pool as a little cool at first, but warmed up. Cloudy weather affects the hot water tank, but was easily switched over to electric. The house had everything we needed including umbrellas for the beach.

We always choose this condo for Kona. It was our 5th time to rent it. We are always sure what we are getting with 228, clean, comfortable, well-stocked, and the view is lovely. Sure it's a bit dated, but it is quiet and provides all our needs. Thanks

Good stay, information provided by Kona Rental was very good. We have had no problems encountered. Will use your services again. Thank you.

Perfect size house for 6 adults. Lanai is awesome. Location works for Kona. Kona concierge was very helpful and great bookings for manta rays at night and snorkeling with dolphins in day. Pros.....kitchen well stocked with spices. Lanai and living space large, pool and waterfall, comfortable beds, coolers & lots of beach items available. Great information book on condo and area. A couple things to improve... More beach towels, hot tub was very finicky and lots smaller than picture. We did have to call for service on hot tub. Ice maker not making ice very quickly.

This place is ideal. Easy walk across the street to Kahalu'u Beach park for excellent snorkeling, surfing or body board, and tide pool hunting. This was our 4th stay in Kona and our favorite place so far. Shopping and dining nearby at Keahou. Quick drive to Kailua-Kona for many dining and shopping choices. Includes beach towels, chairs, beach mats, toys, etc. Very clean and spacious condo. Very nice, large outdoor lanai with Fan. We loved everything about this place except the bed - Double foam mattress (not the tempurpedic kind) that was too soft for our liking, not enough support. Good for short stay - 5 nights, not so much. We will definitely stay here again (hopefully new bed by then).

It's great to stay

Very conveniently located: many restaurants, Honl's Beach and Kailua Pier in walking distance. Due to the ocean breeze the condo felt surprisingly cool at 84 degrees F daytime highs, even without us running the A/C. We especially liked swimming, snorkeling, kayaking around Kailua Pier. Honl's Beach is closer but rocky and thus was not easy to get in to for our 6 year old. Our 6 year old loved the pool though.

Clean and beautiful. Parking is challenging if you have a large vehicle and can't get it to fit in the spaces provided. Easy walk to shops and restaurants. Very well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds too. We had a great stay.

What an amazing place! Very spacious, clean and convenient location. The pools were wonderful! We were very well taken care of both by the owners and by Kona Coast. They checked in on us to make sure we had what we needed. Very lovely time! Mahalo!

Room was very clean. Instructions were very clear. Location was good.

Our stay was wonderful and the Villa was better than we expected. The location was excellent, set amongst a golf resort and with easy access to shops and amenities and the beach. The Villa itself was very spacious and well equipped. Thank you for a great stay.

We thought the condo was just wonderful!The location,all the amenities, everything was perfect. The view is even better than shown in the photos. We couldn't have asked for anything more. We will for sure be back. Aloha and Mahalo

having 3 bedrooms, each with their own updated bath, was the perfect set up. The kitchen was very well equipped, the decor was updated and comfortable. Location was great, next to the pool and an easy walk to the beach area.

First of all we want to say that we had a great time in Kona. The The apartment was clean when we arrived. The location is perfect. The manager does an excellent job. The condo had everything we needed. Towels, sheets, utensils, beach chairs, umbrella and toys were useful and greatly appreciated. However, few things have to be looked at. The kitchen cupboards and the bathroom need renovations. The screen door needs to be fixed or even replaced. We enjoyed our 6 weeks stay at Kona Isle #C32. Mahalo

Kona Coast Vacations

Great location and had no issues with the property. We had (2) families and the layout of the house was perfect for (8) people including (3) adults and (5) kids. Was also great when we had guests for several dinners. Had a few minor issues with the microwave not working but in general the house was clean and well maintained. Was only due to our timing but the pool did get a little dirty due to the heavy rains and is only cleaned once a week. Would highly recommend the property as it was close to town and central to all activities. Had a great time at the local beaches with the kids that were a close drive. Also note that the staff was great and the location is secure and very safe. We will definitely be back in the future.

Booked this condo just for my wife and I. Not paying attention that it was a 3 bedroom. But that aside, it was awesome. We both had separate bathrooms and an abundance of space. The view from the balcony is spectacular, especially if you catch one of the amazing sunsets. We caught a wahoo when we went sportfishing, and the condo had everything there to cook it up and enjoy it. Three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. I personally wouldn’t want more than 4 people there, but I like my space when on vacation.

The condo was clean, tastefully furnished and an easy drive from the airport. The master bedroom/bathroom has a terrific ocean view and combined with the sound of the waves is a relaxing place to sleep. The other 2 bedrooms are street side consequently they are more suitable for kids vs a second adult couple. The galley style kitchen is functional and well equipped however it is cramped. The lanai is a great place to spend time watching the ocean - the view is amazing. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this condo to others.

This condo in Kailua Kona is really beautiful with a fantastic view off the front deck. The kitchen has great knives and anything you could want to cook for yourself plus a new washer and dryer. It has two bedrooms each with a private bath so it’s perfect for two couples. There are restaurants and all kinds of activities to sign up for within steps of the building. My group loved the Thai place next door and rented mopeds from Hang Loose to explore snorkel sights. Definitely recommend.

This is an amazing condo. Very up to date and decorated to perfection.Very well stocked and clean. The location is great and convenient to Kona. Sea Village resort is well manicured and also very clean. Manager provided good communication. I would recommend this condo

Our stay at Sea Village 1101 was good. The location is great for visiting Kona. The condo itself is located right beside the pool is convenient but can be a little loud. The condo was clean but could use some updating and several doors were sticking- the downstairs bathroom door would not shut entirely. The management provided good customer service. I would recommend this property especially because of the spectacular views.

Comfortable space and great location. Walk down to the park across the street and jump right in to snorkel! Easy drive to town.

Beautiful views, very large and spacious for 2. The place has everything you could possibly need. Walking distance to shops, bars, everything really. Coffee on the large lanai, gazing out over swaying palms into the ocean was a wonderful way to start your day and plan your adventures

Great place. BEAUTIFUL SEA VIEW (amazing for the sunset and got to see dolphins too!). Would definitely go back.

Very well put together condo. Wonderful elegant and traditional Hawaiian décor, beautiful bathrooms for two whole couples to stay (although we only had one) and outfitted with a couple boogie boards, beach towels and all the directions to make our stay great. We stayed our first three nights over at the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and then easily transferred over to the Terraces. We went snorkeling, had massages at the Spa, went boogie boarding, rode bikes (from the hotel) can rent in town and went on a hike. This is the 10th time or so we have been to the Big Island so we stayed local. This is by far our favorite unit. We will be back again!

We returned here after our first visit last year. This is very well maintained unit in a perfect location next to the best beach in the area. Kona Coast vacations management company has great people working for them. Communication before the trip was very good and they have a nice concierge that can help you line up activities or what to do and places to go on the island. Unit was fresh and nicely cleaned at move in and we saw no bugs or any problem the whole time we were here. This is Hawaii you must keep your counters clean and free of food. Kitchen is nicely equipped with everything you need for cooking your meals here and there is a blender for morning fruit shakes and a storage chest on the balcony with all the beach gear you need including all snorkel equipment boogie boards umbrellas and chairs. We will be back!

Our group of six fit beautifully into this three-bedroom home. The gardens were gorgeous, the house was gorgeous, and the sunsets... you get the picture. Everything we needed for our week in Hawaii was available, and everyone had a great time. Before we left, one of our guests was insisting she was going to remodel her kitchen to look just like this one. Thanks for sharing this lovely home.

Our family vacation was very relaxing because of the Waikoloa Colony Villas. The condo (two bedroom) was well maintained and stocked with all the amenities we would need in the kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms and beach toys/essentials. The pools were well maintained and conviently located near by with BBQ grills for our grilling pleasure! The workout facility was great for cardio and lifting. Ask for a second pool key if half of your party wants to go to the pool and the other wants to work out. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this location to family and friends.

We found this ‘home’ to be very comfortable and clean and would not hesitate to book it again the next time we visit the island. Would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a place with the feeling of home.

Great view! Exactly as described. Check in was a breeze. Very clean. Easy walk to restaurants and shops.

The house is right by the sea, the view is very good, and all the facilities of the house are complete. It is very convenient.

This condo was exactly as described and a perfect base for our family of five! There was plenty of room and it was well laid out for our needs. We would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The condo had all the items we needed and even some we didn't expect. Coolers, sunscreen, snorkeling equipment and boogie boards! We were far enough away from downtown Kona so the complex was very quiet. We met some neighbors who have owned their condo 42 years. The complex is very well kept. It was nice to have coffee by the ocean in the morning. A car is needed unless you love walking to get into Kona.

Had an excellent experience here. So much nicer and more relaxed than an apartment or hotel style vacation

Clean, private and quiet with a direct ocean view. We were very pleased. Management company was very helpful. We had a problem with the TV remote and called the management company for some help. A person was there within 30 minutes and showed us how to use the remote properly. Condo had everything we needed. Would definitely stay there again.

Great location, within walkable distance from bars and restaurants as well as shops. Lots of amenities included and the bathrooms are very nice. The only thing that didn't convince me was the mattress, but everything else was phenomenal. The swimming pool is really nice too.

This was a beautifully decorated unit, directly facing the beach. The owners did an incredible job of paying attention to detail, and decorated the unit with so many high-end, extra special touches. It was also spotlessly clean. I would definitely stay at this unit again (#303). The only thing I would caution future renters on is that the unit is on the third floor, so people who have difficulty with stairs may want to consider a lower unit. However, the view from the third floor was lovely and I highly recommend this unit to people without any mobility issues.

Great place to stay in Kona. Comfortable house, great scenery, very convenient to restaurants and many island attractions. Property is well maintained with attractive garden, and many places to relax and enjoy the ocean view, including the pool and hot tub. Highly recommend this gorgeous property.  Dates of Stay: 2/17/18 - 2/24/18

This property was accurately described in its listing. The location was convenient --the layout was open and airy -- the beds were comfortable --the linens were clean -- the kitchen was bigger than expected and had everything we needed to cook and feed our family of 6 -- we had a close, designated parking space -- there were multiple pools available for our use and the one closest to us had an incredible view of the golf course and ocean -- we had good customer service when we couldn't get the wifi working and they sent someone out to help us right away. I was very satisfied with the property and would recommend it to friends and family members. Just a couple things that could have improved our experience is the floors could have been cleaner- I noticed that if we walked around barefoot on the tile that our feet got gray. Another improvement would be a more ample supply of dish washing detergent, paper towels and tissues. We ended up needing to buy our own stuff at the store because we ran out on day 4 or 5. But overall this is the best property I've ever found on VRBO or Home Away and we had a fabulous vacation.

This is a beautiful condo located about a 15 minute walk to restaurants, local shops and markets. There is a lovely cafe right in the parking lot with local kona coffee that we stopped by every morning and headed back to the condo to take in the view from the deck. The condo is very clean and well stocked with dishes, laundry facilities in the condo, snorkel gear, beach towels and chairs. The view from the condo is amazing, a great place for coffee in the morning and sunsets in the evening. You can take in views of the ocean and the pool is close by. There is no air conditioning but the condo is located on the bottom floor so we had no issues with it being too hot inside as there are lots of fans. We shared this condo with another couple and found it was the perfect size, with two bathrooms we were able to have space and still enjoy each others company. We would recommend this condo and company to anyone visiting Kona !

Very close to the snorkeling location and Hilltop Supermarket, a few minutes drive to the Sheraton to see the devil fish. The community has its own beach, passing through the path opposite the room

Great thanks please for a home base. Pool is nice and location is close to Kona-Kailua. You will need to drive to sand beaches and the parking is really tight for this unit. Street parking was readily available though. We had an issue with the refrigerator but the team was very prompt in helping us to solve it. Overall, a great stay!

Our vacation was even better than expected because of this wonderful home. The vacation rental company was attentive from the moment we rented it to the time we checked out. The home is not only very clean and comfortable but has many amenities and the backyard space is truly lovely. We spent much of our time on the lanai and in the pool.

We stayed with four adults and two children and the space was perfect for us. Basically right across the street from Kahalu'u beach, which has a snorkeling area on one side and a surfing area on the other. Bring water/reef shoes as the rocks are sharp and there are a lot of urchins in the crevices of the rocks. The only drawback to the location is that there are no stores within walking distance, but we did take the trolley from downtown Kona once and that was really nice. The house was well stocked with trash bags, lots of coffee filters, cleaning supplies etc and plenty of towels. The bedrooms are on the small side, but there is enough room on the floor to add a twin mattress (from the daybed) for a child. There is AC, but we only used it once after the house had been shut up all day, normally the breeze and ceiling fans were sufficient. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets from the lanai. Our kids had fun with the foosball table and we borrowed beach chairs, pool noodles and an umbrella from the carport. The wifi is very slow and tends to drop in and out a lot - but the TV has cable so we didn't really need to use Netflix for the kids like we would at home.

Nice condo on the beach with a perfect view. Bedrooms are small - only one had room for the pack n play but you don't spend time in the bedroom and it worked.

This is a beautiful house in a great location. Impeccably maintained and fully equipped. Best to back into the parking area for easier exit.

We stayed here for a week and loved it. The view from the balcony is amazing, with the surf pounding against the lava rocks about 20 feet away. The unit is attractively decorated with new large appliances and lots of kitchen tools for cooking. It wasn't too expensive for what was offered, and Kona Coast Vacations (the management company we booked from)was excellent checking with us to be sure we were satisfied. The location is great if you want to be close to shops and restaurants in Kona. Our only warning is that even with the small air conditioner running in the living room and fans going, it was very very warm in the bedroom. This didn't spoil our trip - but you need to be prepared for this . Otherwise a great vacation property with a moderate sized pool and hot tub as well as barbecues for use. You can't go wrong with this unit!

The unit was quiet and private. Check in was easy. Close to many beautiful beaches. It was very handy to use their beach items. It didn't have air conditioning, but fans kept it cool and comfortable. Beds were clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped, but we didn't cook. There were cockroaches, but we've seen them at Fairmont Orchid, too. Tips from the concierge service were great!

The best feature of this unit is the recently and luxuriously renovated bathroom. The other rooms are also very nice, mostly with tile floors. The furniture is comfortable. The well-appointed kitchen has fairly new appliances. (But for some reason the dishwasher did not do a very good job; we had to re-wash some dishes out of almost every load.) The only items that are missing are barbecue utensils. The sliding door to the lanai is VERY hard to open and close, and the vertical slat drape has certainly seen better days, but other than that all of the furnishings worked fine. However the furniture on the lanai is just a tad too big, making it awkward to maneuver around it. Also, if it rains the upholstered furniture is likely to get wet, making the lanai pretty much unusable until it dries. This unit is back a bit from the ocean, but the third level location allows for a fine ocean view from the lanai. This unit is quite convenient to the elevator, but there are a few steps in between. The company that manages the rental of this unit is very responsive and helpful. We had a minor issue that required attention, and a serviceman came within 30 minutes of our call. The common areas of Casa de Emdeko are beautiful and VERY well maintained. The gas grills provided for residents and guests are top quality.

Clean. Beds were nice. It had all of the beach stuff you needed. Found the couch to be uncomfortable.

Kamilo House was a home away from home with gorgeous 360 degree views, superb amenities, super location, walkable neighborhood, close to town and ocean, and the perfect size! Thank you thank you! We will be back.

I hate to recommend this place, because I don't want anyone else knowing about it!

We stayed 2 weeks in Sea Village 1101. Great condo, well equipped, excellent location right on ocean front. We loved everything about the condo. Would definitely recommend and return again.

Loved this condo, well equipped, ocean front location, clean. Responsive staff when we needed something.

This location could not have been any more perfect for the Lavaman triathlon. It made the logistics of race weekend so easy. The property was beautiful and well appointed. Having an assigned parking spot plus guest parking near our unit was ideal. We also made use of the clean pool and the hot tub. My young son really enjoyed walking around on the lawns and paths to look at the flowers and fish ponds. The unit itself was large and very comfortable. All appliances served brand new and we had everything we needed to cook any meal we wanted to using the kitchen and the small grill on the lanai. We didn't make use of the larger g grilling areas but it was nice to know they were available if we had wanted them. We did move some furniture at the beginning of our stay because the tables were glass with sharp corners, not safe for a very active toddler, but we had no issue moving the tables out of the way or back to their original places upon our departure. Our bed was very comfortable and the curtains in the room made it plenty dark. The showers worked well, with plenty of water pressure and water that heated quickly to a steady temperature. The tile floors, remote controlled fans and lighting, and the air conditioning kept the unit comfortable for the duration of our stay. The only downside was not being able to check in until 4pm after arriving on the island at 11:30. This was only an issue for us because my son needed to nap. It turned out to only be a minor inconvenience on the first day and the pros of the condo far outweighed it. We would definitely stay here again on a future trip to the big island, especially for Lavaman

Simply wonderful. Enjoyed every minute.

This home was lovely, well-maintained, and had plenty of room for 7 adults. It's centrally located in a quiet neighborhood (except for the renovation construction going on across the street). It's a very short walk to the sand beach alcove/lave rock formations/beautiful sunsets in this gated community. The weather was pleasant enough that we didn't use the a/c, although it was humid, as can be expected. There was a problem when we first arrived with a moldy coffee filter basket & dirty appliances, dishes, but the rental company was very accommodating, and quickly made an adjustment for us. We would highly recommend this home and the rental company. We will be back again, time permitting!

Sea Village 4106 was a beautiful and easy to access unit, central to most everything on the Kona side of the Big Island. The unit, although a bit outdated, was fairly clean, the common area was great for cooking out, we awoke to dolphins playing off of the lanai each morning! David, the concierge, was wonderful and very accommodating. The only thing we would suggest with this unit is that they update the beach chairs and umbrella, which were all broken. Such a small thing, but everything else was wonderful!!

This is a great condo....very roomy and very clean. Worked great for us! Nicely decorated and had plenty of towels, bedding, dishes, cookware, etc! Very helpful book of information about the condo and area available in the condo. This is a residential community with access to a beautiful pool just steps away (also gas grills) plus a community pool for lap swimming and children's pool, tennis courts, even a bookmobile! Very friendly and welcoming neighbors and on-site contact. We most often had the pool to ourselves. Neighborhood was quiet and walking distance to a large grocery store. Drive to beaches not too bad (15 min?). We also drove to Hilo/volcano (less than 2 hours). Thanks for a great week!

What a great experience. We absolutely loved this place and had a fantastic time. We would definitely recommend this to friends and family. The only thing we would change is the soft beds. We like harder beds. No big deal though. For those who like softer beds, then obviously no problems. Certainly lovely layout and would definitely rent again in a couple of years if it’s still available.

Great place. Great location. Could use more umbrellas/shade at the pool and shoreline.

We stay here at least once a year and use Kona coast vacations via Airbnb or another service. They're always top notch in regard to this vacation rental property. Thanks so much! They always make the experience stress and hassle free.

Kona Pacific D524 is amazing. It was homey and perfect for our family. It felt so comfortable - the beds were comfy, place was immaculate, the massive lani was a perfect place for our lunches or dinners. It was a quick walk into town which made exploring easy. Kona Coast Vacations was amazing to work with. We will be using them exclusively to stay in kona going forward. Great experience overall!

Great place to stay right on the magic sands Beach. Family friendly. Everything was fantastic.

This was a great place to stay. Very comfortable and the host very accomadating

Lovely vacation home right across the beach. It's quiet ,convenient and has an amazing view. It's clean and it has everything that we need.

What's not to love about this property! You get what you pay for, and what you get with this home is the best of Kona locations. Keiki Ponds is the protected family beach 100 steps from the lanai, and we felt we didn't need to go anywhere else with our family to enjoy Kona's shores. The house has a plethora of beach towels, two large beach umbrellas, chairs and toys to spend the whole day enjoying the sandy beach. The crashing ocean on the other side of the lava rocks was amazing, and the mornings drinking coffee outside were wonderful. The house is even larger than shown in the photos, if possible, and was well-stocked. The description of the house was accurate, except there are also trundle beds under the two bunk beds and there's a brand new pack n play portable crib in the upstairs closet. The house is located in a great, safe, gated community that was a 12 minute drive to the downtown Kona area. Large private driveway for parking, easy to find location, good list of recommended vendors (we snorkeled with manta rays and dolphins with Jack's Diving Locker, which was on their list and fabulous). Kona Coast Vacations reached out several times before our trip to offer assistance and their concierge services, which we didn't use but appreciated. We will be staying here again in the future without a doubt.

We stayed on the Big Island for 2 weeks and we started with 7 days at this amazing home. We had 8 people in our group and there was more than enough room for all of us, couples, teens and all. It was a great house for our large family group! The kids like being able to walk into Kona without us. The small beach area is so safe if you have small children and very near the skateboard park. We loved the pool but I think the kids we had with us (ranging from ages 14 - 22) would say they like the outdoor pool table the best. We stayed in 3 homes throughout the Island this trip and when we asked which was their favourite, this was it! The house is very well equipped with boogie boards, towels, snorkels and beach umbrellas. We used it as our base to explore this side of the Island. It was fantastic!

This property is in a quiet location but within walking distance to restaurants, shops and grocery stores. The unit is clean and had plenty of room for our family of 4. The view was spectacular. Fantastic sunsets, sea views, golf course and palm trees made it hard to leave the unit some days! This unit was equipped with everything you need in the kitchen (including plenty of airtight reusable containers to save your food and take it to the beach). There are beach towels, snorkel gear and water shoes as well. The location was further south then we are used to but the view made it worth the few extra minutes of travel.

We didn't expect this encore visit to surpass last year's memorable stay, but it did! Spent more hours in the pool and spa this time, and were happy we did. (Nothing like watching the sun set from the spa, with a glass of champagne in hand!) Discovered the garden, where the owner/management was wise enough to add a bench and tables. Also learned about the pleasures of showering outdoors- didn't even know that was an option last year. Spent a little more time in Kailua town on this trip. Must have tried every fish sandwich in Kona; guess what: they're all good! Our favorite place for breakfast was Lava Java; favorite lunch spot was Huggo's On the Rocks. Speaking of rocks... check out Kona Rocks and Minerals on Ali'i Drive if you're into that sort of thing. There is no question that we've found the right place in GMH. It was such a blast to open that door again, and be greeted by that view. The place just puts a smile on your face. We now think of it as our second home on the Big Island, and have no interest in staying anywhere else. See you next year, GMH! Dates of Stay: 2/26/18 - 3/5/18

everything was up to par except the weather. It was the 10th visit to the casa so the proof is in the pudding. thanks

We loved everything about the condo except for the open walls. The home provides all necessities and more!! We loved the comfy outdoor furniture on the patio where we stayed most of the time. Beautiful views all the way around!

Fantastic condo. Very clean and spacious. Everything you could possibly need. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable for my husband and I and are 2 teenagers. Walking distance to 2 beaches. Excellent communication in advance of our stay.

We travel to the island often and have stayed in many rentals. This house was one of the better ones. The area is quiet yet, easy to access to where you'd want to go. This house itself was nearby to the gate and main entrance but, surprisingly quiet. There wasn't a house on the other side either so, pretty quiet. It was recently furnished for rental and had everything we needed except maybe a couple more kitchen towels. The pool was great to refresh during the day with good sun on the lanai. No AC but we don't like it anyway, ceiling fans and open windows worked fine in March. We will definitely consider staying here again.

Lovely condo, very spacious however does not have AC. Close to pool but not to beaches, you will need a car to get around. We enjoyed our stay and were pleased with the place.

The pictures don't do this place justice. So clean and so spacious. Loved our stay here. I am only giving 4 stars as it needs some updating, but overall the unit was the perfect place for our family (and visiting friends) to enjoy together.

Casa de Emdeko is THE place to stay on the island. The complex is fabulous. This unit was adequately supplied. Any problems with cleanliness or need for new cooking implements were immediately remedied by Kona Coast.

This was one of the best places we have stayed. Central to everything we wanted. Fully stocked with everything we needed for our 9 days. Great view of the ocean.

I had a very nice vacation at the Royal sea cliff unit 209. The condo was very comfortable and had all the amenities one could ask for. The view from the lanai was beautiful! Every thing about the condo was easy and convenient. Minor issues with appliances and technology were addressed very promptly and the people that came to remedy the issues were really accommodating and very pleasant! The only problem encountered was the noise from the pool repairs during the last 4 days of my stay. Makenzie from Kona coast was very responsive and did all she could to make amends for the problem, although it was not within her control to stop the noise. All in all, I am very impressed with the service from Kona coast, and all the staff I dealt with.. I will definitely return to Kona and will surely rent my vacation condo from Kona coast! Thank you for all your great work.

This was our 20th visit to the Big Island, 18 years in condo 210. Not really a vacation experience, just an opportunity to leave an Alberta winter.

This property exceeded all of our expectations. It was clean, spacious, and welcoming, and the perfect fit for our family. A great location for exploring the western side of the island, with so many beaches and national parks just a short drive away. We ate all of our meals on the lanai, and the kids (7, 9, 10) enjoyed late afternoon swims in the pool almost every day. It was our first trip to the Big Island, and we leave with memories of swimming with spinner dolphins at Two-Step Beach, snorkeling with turtles at several locations, and riding the waves at Hapuna, Beach 69 and Kua Bay. The trip of a lifetime. We can't wait to come back, and will definitely try and stay at this location again.

This is an amazing property. Right on the beach. The waves crashing all day and night. We saw turtles right below our lanai. The condo was clean and comfortable. The kitchen is big and very nice. We liked the location, close to town and all the services you need. We will definitely go back.

The condo has a good layout. With the main bedroom on one side of the living room and the other bedroom on the opposite side. Both have ensuites, plus one 1/2 bath. It would be fine for a couple. The condo was clean and with enough towels and linens. The bath and beach towels were the largest I have seen and good quality. The master bed (for me) was comfortable with good linens. Kitchen was very well stocked with dishes etc. Having a washer and dryer was convenient. The lanai only has a view of the golf course (but still nice) It is a 15-20 minute walk to the town of Waikoloa for meals or just a stroll. We liked all the restaurants/take outs offered, Pueo Osteria is a little pricey but the others are very reasonable. We like golfing and doing a few beach days and for this the Waikoloa Fairways are ideally situated. 15 minute drive to beaches and only 20 minute drive to Big Island Golf Course (our favourite by far) Also, golfed the course beside the condo and Hapuna Beach, Makalei golf course. All very nice. Hilo is a little over an hour away. I suggest going the high road there for the scenery and then coming back on the saddle road. The fact that it has air conditioning is another bonus.

We had a wonderful stay and thought the property and amenities were perfect. We loved that the location had a feeling of being secluded and private with the conveniences of shops and downtown near by. I would highly recommend this property!

I chose this condo for it's modern decor, spacious lanai, and easy access to nearby beaches. It did not disappoint in any of those areas! In terms of location, it's close to the main roads/highways that take you to downtown Kona and a few beaches (about a 10-15 min drive) and right across the street from a shopping center with a supermarket. The complex is very quiet-one night I had the pools all to myself-which made for a relaxing vacation. While it was just my husband and me, having two bathrooms was very luxurious, and the condo itself felt very spacious. There isn't AC, but the tons of fans arranged around the place provided a cool breeze. We had everything we needed, including helpful extras like washer & dryer, beach towels, beach chairs & mats, cooler, boogie board, etc. Overall, we loved staying here, and the check-in process was super simple.

Great location! We had a beautiful view and enjoyed coffee on the lanai in the morning and dinner at night. We did have to open all the windows and doors when we first arrived because it was stuffy but that was the only thing I would call out. Quick response times and super accommodating... we would stay there again.

This unit was very well maintained, clean and equipped with everything you would need, including at the beach. Out of all our rentals in the past we were impressed with the attention to detail in the unit that most rentals don't think of (hooks on the doors, walls, makeup mirror, extra fans, beach coolers, boogie boards, lots of fresh towels). We were surprised to see a portable air conditioner, which we only used a few times but was nice to have. As well, Tommy Bahama chairs and umbrellas (saved us having to rent). The lanai was beautiful to sit out in the mornings having coffee and in the evenings for dinner. Our only negative comment is the pool area is quite strict with food and drink. It would be nice to have snacks and a cocktail around the pool. The pool area is very quiet and we now understand a review on Trip Advisor that it did not seem very kid friendly. If your thing is the beach then it is not a problem. Overall we would stay at this unit again!

If your debating about staying here, GO FOR IT! Great directions and easy details. A very clean condo. Nice furniture. The beds were great - the best sleep we had on the island and we stayed at we other locations. Very updated and organized kitchen and all of the fixtures and furnishings in this place was well taken care of and clean. Only problem we had was the showerhead in one of the bathrooms and its spray. Loved the views and the chorus of birds in the morning was delightful. The snorkeling across the road from the unit was great & easy for even beginners. Great Deal & Place. Would book again - we were all sad to leave this location!!! Thank you for having us!!!

we loved this condo on the ocean. Waking up every morning to that incredible view was awesome. The condo was clean and comfortable, kitchen well stocked and both bedrooms had comfortable king sized beds! It was in a great location to all the shops and activities that Hawai'i offers. We loved the pool in the afternoon and walking the beach collecting shells in the morning. It took alittle getting used to being awakened every morning by singing birds but we grew to like them!

This house is simply amazing. Very comfortable with an incredible ocean view. Only a short drive to town with lots of restaurants, bars and shops. We were travelling with 6 adults and 4 teenagers. Pool was a bit chilly on cloudy days, but otherwise nice. The attached ohana suite was great for my inlaws to be able to have some privacy away from the rest of the family. We will definitely be back to enjoy this home again.

Home is exactly as shown in pictures. Beautiful, spacious and clean. Host followed up next day we arrived to make sure everything went smoothly. Only issue was some other vehicle was parked in our assigned parking so we had to park at a visitors spot till the next day. Also, couple of power outlets kept going off (not work) while trying to use the toaster and hair dryer but we will definitely stay again in this beautiful home next time we visit the big island.

The location of this condo was perfect! Right on Ali'i drive with a view of the ocean and sunsets. Although the traffic on Ali'i can be a bit loud, it was worth it to be directly across the street from a beautiful ocean bay. The condo was super clean and well stocked for beach and outdoor activities. Our only frustration was that the east bedroom didn't have a screen on the outside door so we were unable to leave the door open for fresh air at night and we did have a couple of rather hot evenings. We loved our stay here and would definitely come back!

Nice spacious 1 bedroom condo. Two good pools (fresh and salt water) plus sand area for basking.

Great base to explore the big island- all was good. Many thanks!

Beautiful home. Great place to stay when visiting hawaii

It was easy to call this place home away from home. Walked to the Pro Shop in 2 minutes. Great view of the first tee and Mauna Kea. The unit was loaded with amenities. Both the maintenance staff and property manager responded to our minor concerns very quickly. Very handy having the well-stocked grocery store a 5 minute drive away. The property inside and out was clean except for the windows. I spent 4 hours cleaning all the inside windows in order to enjoy the view. We got to tour the whole island in the 4 weeks we were here, in addition to playing golf almost every other day. We loved that the neighborhood was quiet and safe.

This was a great condo with a wonderful view. We spent countless hours on the lanai listening to the waves and watching the ocean. We even saw a whale and a tail slap about 300 yards out one morning. There were also a couple of times when dolphins swam by. The condo had everything we needed and we had no problems. Kona Coast Vacations is very organized and our check in and out went smoothly. It was great having our personal concierge David, who helped us out on an outing. I highly recommend Kona Coast Vacations and this condo.

Amazing location. Close to restaurants, shops , or anything you could possibly need. The view could not of been better. Pool, ocean , evening sunset! The concierge, David was so helpful and so lovely. We wanted tips on what to do and where to go with small children. He helped us with hikes, beaches and restaurants, ect.. Want to come back next year!

The pictures of the unit are pretty accurate but, the unit is much better than the pics. When we walked in we could see this was a first class unit, minimum 4 to 5 stars. The owners obviously took great care in decorating and outfitting the unit with everything one could want. First off two bottles of very nice wine, gourmet Kona Coffee, treats, spice gift set as a welcome gift to their beautiful home. Brand new appliances, quality dishes, glasses, cookware, everything one would expect in a 5 star unit. Beautifully equipped furnishings in all rooms with brand new high quality beds, bedding, brand new super soft towels. Almost too much to mention. The location of the unit is right in the heart of Kona, on the main drag, Alii Dr. 7th floor (top floor), next to corner unit and is very private with awesome views of the ocean and town. The binoculars provided were a real Nice touch since it made the viewing of fish from the balcony more exciting. In fact we saw the spinner dolphins playing and swimming with snorkelers not more than 200 yards off shore. A real treat thus inspiring us to use the provided beach supplies (masks, fins snorkels, beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, picnic coolers) so we could also swim with the dolphins in Kealakekua Bay. This unit exceeded all our expectations and we would love to come back and stay in this unit again. One of the best units My wife, brother in law , sister in law and I have ever stayed in our 30 years of traveling together. If you want a wounderful experience by all means, rent this unit you will not be dissatisfied.

We had a terrific vacation at Country Club Villas #324. Our unit was very spacious and very well equipped. We enjoyed the size and privacy of the lanai. And the beds were very comfortable. We will indeed book with Country Club Villas when we next vacation in Kona.

We had a great stay at this wonderful condo! The condo is exactly as pictured. It is close to shopping and a few farmers markets. Amy at Kona Coast Vacations was great to work with. Would definitely stay here again.

There was four of us staying in the unit. It was very clean and comfortable. When sitting on the lanai it was very peaceful and quiet. We did the manta ray snorkel and lots of other snorkeling - the special highlight was swimming/snorkeling with the dolphins at the Kealakekua Bay. We also did lots of walking/hiking. The Beach Club was great and the snorkeling was amazing! Would recommend staying here.

Fabulous, this was our 5th time to the Big island, our condo was well stocked and very clean. Spoke to Donna a few times while making reservations, she was very kind and informative. We enjoyed the stay and all the wonderful activities, David was very helpful & signed us up for Ride the Rim ATV tour, that was awesome. Our favourite spot is Hapuna beach for body surfing! We will be back!

Although this isn't a top of the line unit it was clean, comfortable and very efficient for two people. You could tell the owner really did their best to include small comforts that made it very much like home or like you were renting from family or a friend. It was also very quiet with the elevator very close which was nice. Many of the guests were long time visitors which gave it a community feel. The salt water pool and the layout around it was really terrific. There is no washer and dryer in unit but the complex laundry was clean and easy to use if you wanted too. Parking was a little challenging especially when you came in later in the evening but one call to the management company let us know we could park in the parking lot outside the gate. Walking into downtown Kona is possible (less than 2 miles) but Ali Blvd is really busy these days so be prepared for traffic nearly all the time. We would recommend this unit to others for sure and are hoping ourselves to go back to Kona next year and this unit will be on the top of the list.

We were in a family vacation with my three adult children and partners. Our accommodation was important to the success of the trip. I cannot day enough about how well this home worked for us. Great pool and gardens, clean and well equipped. We loved having dinners at the large lani table with the view of the coast and Kona. Highly recommend this home for family vacations.

Highly recommend this house for your trip to the Big Island! The pictures are accurate but the house felt like so much more! The rooms were big, beautiful, and had amazingly comfortable beds. Plenty of bathrooms with lots of towels and toiletries provided. Huge kitchen with space to cook and store all of our food. We had little ones with us and there was a crib, high chair, and plenty of toys for the trips to Keiki beach. I can't say enough good things about this place! Well worth it and we couldn't have imagined staying anywhere else! So close to everything we wanted to see as well. Thank you so much!

Had a great stay at Kona Coast vacations. The location is excellent, being right in front of a beach known for snorkeling.

as described, great location, great salt water pool, clean unit with all necessary amenities. parking was a bit of a hassle due to lack of designated parking and limited spaces.

We loved the location and everything inside the condo was thought out and very clean. We appreciated all the little touches, even condiments in the kitchen and plenty of sunscreen lotion in the cupboard! Our only suggestion is that you consider putting a handle in the bathtub. We noticed as we looked down at the guests in the pool area there were many seniors like ourselves. If someone gets soap in their eyes while bathing or slips a bit they need to have something to hold on to or they can crash through the glass. This would be important!

This place is very nice! We really enjoyed it here for our 4 night stay. It was well stocked with towels and kitchen had everything for cooking a meal. They supplied dish soap and paper towels. Also had some laundry soap.. Only thing missing that would have been nice is beach chairs.... Beds were pretty comfortable, The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star is because there is a musty moldly odor that we noticed. It didn't bother me to much, but in case you are sensitive to odors, it is worth noting.

My family has been staying at various Halii Kai units over the past 9 years and this has been the nicest stay yet. Not only was the unit very clean, but the owners are very generous with what they let their guests use, including boogie boards, beach chairs and umbrellas. The unit is well stocked in the kitchen as well as with linens and beach towels. Lastly, it is perfectly located not far from the tennis court and pool area with a beautiful ocean view.

Our time on the Big Island was amazing and all that we hoped to experience. Snorkeling at a number of areas was a real highlight as well as hiking through lava fields and the rain forests. The condo was perfect. Very convenient, clean and well updated. The online listing was accurate and helped us to pick just the right spot. Thanks again

Convenient to attractions and restaurants!

The photos do not do justice to this lovely Keahou Estates home. The home is absolutely immaculate and appears newly remodeled. The kitchen is well-appointed and has everything you will need for your visit. We have stayed in many vacation rentals over the years and this home had by far the best selection of cookware, utensils, glassware, and serving dishes of any home we have rented. Everything was top quality; the owners spared no expense in furnishing and equipping the property. The home was so clean that it sparkled. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Two of the bedrooms have en suite bathrooms, and a third bedroom/den has access to a guest bathroom with shower. The master bedroom and bath are enormous. Our son (USMC 1st Recon Battalion 2007-2011) joined us from his job in Washington, D.C. and greatly enjoyed and appreciated the Marine Corps mementos in the den. Because the weather was so beautiful, we spent most of our time on the lanai and around the pool. There were plenty of lounge chairs and outdoor tables as well as a gas BBQ for grilling steaks. The pool is maintained weekly and was very clean. Two small side fountains spray water from the outer rim of the pool back into the center of the pool for several hours a day. We weren’t sure if the fountains served an additional practical function, but the pool service explained that it is simply a decorative water feature. The fountains are on a timer for the first half of the day and we grew to love the sound of the running water. You can stay to one side of the pool if you don’t want to get sprayed, and the sprinkler automatically turns off in the early afternoon. The pool guy said a family with young children had rented the house the week before and the kids thought the fountains were the greatest things in the world. They loved feeling the spray of water on their heads and shoulders. The house is directly across from the gatehouse and is on the main path as you enter and exit the subdivision. We were a bit worried whether traffic noise might be a problem, but it was not an issue. Keahou Estates is an extremely quiet, safe, and upscale neighborhood, and we barely heard any vehicle traffic. The landscaping is lush and well maintained, and the living room and lanai boast a fantastic and unimpeded view of the ocean. The house and grounds feel very private. It is obvious that a lot of thought and love has gone into this property, and the pride of ownership is apparent.

Pictures can’t get across how nice this home is. It really made the vacation to be able to come home to such luxury- so much so, that we spent a lot more time there than we expected. It’s in a very quiet gated community, and the grounds were perfectly manicured. The house was very open with many glass sliding doors to enjoy the view from every room, including the two spectacular bedrooms upstairs that have large lanais of their own. It was also spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated with a great modern look to it. There is a near 180 degree view of the ocean, along with the privacy provided by the lush vegetation. The pool is long enough to do laps, but we spent most of our time in the spa. Because this is a home, you get everything you would normally expect to have at home including a washer and dryer and a kitchen with all necessary cookware. We only ate breakfasts there, since the house is located close to the town of Kailua and many local restaurants. There are plenty of things to do nearby. Try snorkeling at Kahalu'u or Two Step, or just hang out there. We had a very nice tour of the Greenwell Kona Coffee Farms which is just around the corner, and the Paleaku Peace Garden isn’t to be missed. The house is close to the Kona airport and well situated for longer day trips to the northern and southern coasts as well as the volcano areas. I definitely expect to return to GMH, and would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat. Date of Stay: 2/7/18 to 2/14/18

This property was exactly what we were looking for! The unit was clean, updated, equipped w sand/beach stuff and and the bed.....omg the bed pillows and linen were amazing. Loved that it was air-conditioned also, not that it is completely necessary, but we slept soooooo good. We did not rent a car, we shipped our street bikes and road everywhere. Probably one of the best trips we have had to the islands, first time to Kona, and we will definitely be back.

We investigated other vacation residences, but eventually decided to stick with GMH, and we’re glad we did. As before, the house and grounds were impeccable, and the view was just as we remembered it: magnificent. (It must be quite a chore to clean all that glass!) We took some long trips to Volcanoes National Park, Hilo, and Kohala on this vacation, and the house, with its pool, spa, and air conditioning, was always a wonderful place to return to after being on the road all day. Missed out on the sunset from Mauna Kea because of bad weather; oh well, something to look forward to next year. See you in 2019, GMH! Dates of Stay: 2/26/18 to 3/5/18

The property was as described. I have a high standard for cleanliness and this unit met that standard. There were some beach chairs, boogie boards, coolers, etc. for use which was very much appreciated. I would definitely recommend this unit. It had a lovely large lanai. The only small detractor was the very narrow parking spaces (end to end). Doable but passengers had to unload before parking. It was covered garage parking which was a plus.

We would definitely do business with KCV again!

Spacious place, great location. Easy access and plentiful parking.

We loved staying here - such a great start to our vacation. Enjoyed relaxing on the lanai, looking for whales and dolphins, swimming in the salt water pool, cooking in the well equipped kitchen. Comfy bed with sound of the waves, quiet at night. Older building but lovingly maintained. And endless hot coffee in the morning in the cabana downstairs. Very happy!

Comfortable unit very close to the downtown area, with the Farmer's Market, library and some excellent restaurants.

Our stay was wonderful. The condo was spacious, clean and lovely. We especially loved the tranquility and beauty sitting out on the lanai.

Great place to stay, very quiet except for the sounds of the ocean.

Having spent two nights in the rainforest of Volcano visiting volcanoes, coming to the Kailua Kona side was a real treat. We went from non-stop rain to sunshine and beautiful blue ocean waves. The lanai is an amazing place to spend the afternoon listening to the waves crash and watching the sea going boats cruise by. We never got tired of it. In fact, the TV was never turned on, as even in the evening we would spend time out on the lanai. The unit was very clean and there was plenty of linens for the two of us. The available beach towels were appreciated, too. If inclined for a stroll, tourist shopping and many, many eateries were available within a comfortable half mile walk. I bought the nicest fruit at the market I walked to. The apple bananas, by the way, are amazing and delicious. Even the nearby (within walking distance) ABC store sold pineapple, which is a must to eat while traveling the Hawaiian Islands. There are many Kona coffee farms within 1/2 hour drive and even the worlds only octopus farm. I would definitely recommend this property to a friend. It worked great for the two of us.

We loved our time at Kanaloa. The unit was clean, comfortable and offered an amazing view of the ocean. The complex was quiet and extremely well maintained. We will try to book this condo for our next trip to the Big Island.

The condo was beautiful and in such a great location. We really loved staying here. Waking up to the sounds of the ocean every day was amazing.

We stayed in Fairways #1104 from 2/1/18 to 2/24/18. This was our 3rd annual stay in #1104. It is a very clean, well-kept home that is beautifully decorated and comfortable. Last year owners put in a new king-size bed in MB, a new sofa, chairs, wonderful reading lamp for living area and new area rugs. All so well appointed. Linens are always clean, appliances always work and kitchen is well stocked with dinnerware, glasses, cooking utensils, pots and skillets, etc. Porch off dining area and upper lanai look out over the 12th tee box on the Mauna Lani North Course. The grounds of the Fairways complex are beautifully landscaped and the common swimming pool area is comfortable and welcoming. We plan to return in 2019.

Great quiet location with a lot of space inside and out. Kona Coast Vacations was very quick to respond to a small concern we had. Great experience look forward to booking with them again.

Everything was great. Especially enjoyed being across the street from the beach. The concierge service was very helpful.

The house was amazing. It was spacious and had lots of room for everyone. And the view was spectacular. Even though we had some issues with a leak in one of the bedrooms and no air conditioning in another, I would still consider renting this home again for another visit to The Big Island.

Our experience was excellent, we appreciated the updates the owners have made and look forward to next year returning again.

Family trip - my wife and I, our 3 adult children and their significant others. Slept 4 couples comfortably - with plenty of privacy for everyone. The 3 baths provided all the convenience we needed. The kitchen was excellent - having all the gear we needed to prepare everything from blended cocktails to full meals - we just supplied the ingredients. The bbq was put to good use a number of times. Both the upstairs and downstairs lanai's were big enough to accomadate all 8 of us (and we are a tall group...). The living room was perfect to lounge about in, and with a laptop and HDMI cable we could share the days pictures on the big screen and the wifi was sufficient for 8 simultaneous users. The house was very convenient to the airport, but also to routes into town or across the island. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed the wide variety of birds, especially in the early morning. One of the biggest bonuses of booking with a Kona Coast vacation was the concierge service provided by David at Kona Concierge. Not only did we get good prices on several activities (ziplining, spa treatments and the night manta snorkel), but we also got great planning advice for our lava hike and bike, as well as advice on diving sites and how best to plan everything. By the time we left, we all agreed this was one of the best family vacations, and having a great home base was a big part of it.

We enjoyed our stay, beautiful garden and pool area and the lanai was amazing. The house was very clean. The management team and owners were great, any questions were answered right away with no issues. They also had a lot of great tips about the island which was nice!

The condo has everything a person needs for a great vacation. It is located about 1 block from the ocean and a block from the bay where all the restaurants are located. The condo is located on the north side of the building and it has a wonderful lanai. Since it is on the north, there is no direct sun so you can enjoy it all day long. It also faces lovely bushes and it is very private. Very quiet neighbors. The condo had all the items you need for cooking your meals. We especially like the beach chairs and ice chest for using at the beach or when exploring the island. Lots of water toys. Have already reserved it for next year.

We are just at the end of a 9 night stay at #323 in Casa de Emdeko. It was our very first time in Hawaii. Casa de Emdeko #323 is a real gem. Very clean, updated, 1 bedroom. The king size bed is awesome, big fluffy pillows and a beautiful comforter as well. Having a TV in the bedroom is a bonus. The appliances are perfect, even an ice maker in the fridge. Loved having a washer and dryer of our own! The balcony has a beautiful big table. One evening, while sitting out, we could see the full moon, lights on the hillside from homes, the waterfall and fountain in the courtyard, the freshwater pool, and the ocean. All from our balcony. The only thing we couldn't see was the salt water pool overlooking the ocean. The place is very clean, comfortable, and pretty quiet. If you forgot anything, there is a little store 2 min walk that carries almost anything you might need, including liquor. If you are party animals, this is not the place for you, but if you like a friendly, laid back atmosphere, this is it. Thank you Kona Coast for hooking us up with this perfect spot. Our only complaint - there are not marked/assigned parking spots for each unit, and my brother-in-law sometimes had to park outside the gate. But that is a small inconvenience, in an otherwise great holiday!!!

Stayed 5 nights. Condo well maintained. Having towels and a few snorkeling supplies was very nice. Nice location across from popular snorkeling area. Nice lanai with good view of ocean and pool. Very close to grocery store. Short drive to downtown area for restaurants, shopping etc. Closest beach was Magic Sands less than 2 miles up the road which is small but convenient. Concierge from Kona Coast Vacations was very helpful with beach recommendations and booking dolphin cruise. Would stay here again

We were 2 couples coming to the big island for 4 days of our 2 week Hawaiian vacation. We loved our stay here and felt very comfortable at this condo here at Kona Coast. The neighbours were very helpful and friendly. If we return we all decided we would book here again. Great central location!

We really liked the location. Kitchen is well equipped, Lanai great for breakfast and a dinner at sunset. Interior is all from very good quality, one feels immediately home and all very clean and enough space.

Gorgeous view. Great condo. Good location, quiet ('cept for those pesky crashing waves). Would stay here again. Date of Stay: 2/14/18 to 2/17/18

Great place! Everything was clean and in working order! David, the property concierge, was exceptional! He helped book adventures and restaurants. We could call him anytime and he responded quickly. The townhouse was quiet and beautiful.

We really enjoyed the location of this condo! It is right across from the best snorkeling area we found while on the big island. The condo is very spacious and comfortable. The only reason I am not rating it 5 stars is because the bedrooms are right off the main hallway of the complex and you could see through the shades from the outside hallway which meant that while changing in the bedrooms I had to keep the lights off in order to have privacy. That wasn't ideal. Otherwise we really enjoyed our experience!

Kona Coast Vacations

LOVE it!! 208 was as better than the description. Communications with KCV were prompt, professional and very helpful. They even helped us print our boarding passes. They kept the grounds very well maintained, they always seemed to be doing something to make it nicer. I can't think of anything in the condo that we didn't have. The kitchen had all the things to cook with , there was beach equipment - chairs, snorkelling, beach towels, etc.The condo was very clean, lots of towels, comfortable bed, good WiFi ( but only in the condo), AC & fans. Very quiet and restful. Date of Stay: 2/24/18 to 3/2/18

Great quiet location with a lot of space inside and out. Kona Coast Vacations was very quick to respond to a small concern we had. Great experience look forward to booking with them again.

Great room, awesome view,

This place was great! Loved the location right next to a great snorkeling beach. And the condo was well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. Highly recommend this place.

This is such an amazing place! Far exceeded our expectations and made the trip so much more amazing. Plenty of room for everyone and such a fantastic place on the property--right on the water!

We've stayed at the Casa many times and this unit (#323) is really great! Loved the king bed (nice linens, too) and nice shower! We saw a few ants (inevitable in Hawaii!!) but KCV came right over with little traps and they were gone the next day!! Worked perfect for us! We'll definitely keep this one on our list when we visit Kona!! Date of Stay: 2/16/18 to 2/23/18

Our stay at Keauhou Estate was breath taking. The pictures of the home is just what you get. Beautiful setting in the hills, house is very will laid out. Everything you would need in the kitchen. Very clean thru out the property. David was very helpful in booking trips. Rental company were a pleasure to work with. Only wish there was some beach equipment. Will stay in the area on our next visit. Date of Stay: 2/9/19 to 2/23/18

Very well equipped and furnished unit,Nice bonus to have the beach stuff chairs,umbrella,snorkel gear,etc

We stayed at this beautiful property for a week. There was 8 of us and it was large enough that we were all very comfortable and had room to move! Most of our time was spent by the pool. Shopping is close by and it is a secured gated community. Everyone we dealt with was friendly and professional. I'd definitely recommend this place.

If you want to live like a local, this is the place. Everyday Hawaii living. Condo is good for a family with children or two couples. A little hard to get used to the street traffic; busy road close by and hard to sleep with windows open (no A/C),but this seems to be the norm in this area. The condo was very clean. Only drawback, condo is somewhat dated, furniture is not very comfortable. However, the owner and vacation rental company were very easy to get along with and everything went smooth. That says a lot in my books, I would book with them again. Date of Stay: 2/14/18 to 2/22/18

GOOD SIZE APARTMENT AND HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR A BEACH LIFE. Date of Stay: 2/15/18 to 2/23/18

Very clean and comfortable condo. A bit dated, but well taken care of. Great location. Date of Stay: 2/16/18 to 2/25/18

Love Kona. Nice unit clean with great views of the golf course , water and Maui. Good location with nice sized pool.

Our experience with Kona Coast Vacations was top-notch. This apartment was spacious, very clean, with full kitchen, and a large lanai with a view to the beach. It has two full bedrooms and bathrooms with TVs in each, as well as a large one in the living room. Their owners manual had good suggestions about things to do on the island. One of the best beach and snorkel areas is only one-hundred yards away. Another plus is a shopping center with grocery, clothing, and drugstore just one mile away. Covered parking was great. The apartment is centrally located along the west coast.We highly recommend this apartment and Kona Coast Vacations. We look forward to staying here when we return.

This house was beautiful with everything you need already there! The views are gorgeous and the space is amazing. Plenty of room to hang out and enjoy the sounds while drinking coffee and taking in the views. Thank you Kona Coast Vacation's, you made this trip that much more memorable.

This place lived up to all the pictures. The view was exactly as described in the photos and the interior was even nicer than it looked. Kitchen was excellent and well-stocked with everything we could think of for cooking and baking. Indoor/outdoor living space was beautiful and comfortable. We loved the entire experience! Date of Stay: 2/16/18 to 2/23/18

Great location across from Kahalu'u Beach Park. Beautiful views. Home was well maintained and clean. We did not really use the kitchen but appeared well stocked. Customer service was great. Felt stay was a good value. Be aware it is a bit of a drive to get to any restaurants. The description and photos are accurate. Beds very comfy. Would return!

The condo is absolutely beautiful and very comfortable. It offered all the amenities we needed during our stay. We want to make certain the owner knows how much we appreciate staying at such a lovely property. The Royal Sea Cliff resort complex itself is extremely nice and well-kept. Everyone is doing an excellent job. We enjoyed the pools and meeting other residents and sharing stories about our travels and theirs. And we also appreciated the easy access and departure process. We will not hesitate in recommending this property and referring our friends to Kona Coast Vacation Rentals for their Hawaiian visits. Date of Stay: 2/10/18 to 2/20/18

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. Location was great - only a 5 minute drive from Kona, with a great view of the ocean and sunset each evening. House was clean and very well stocked with linens, towels etc. and kitchen had ample supply of utensils, dishes and pots. Pool is 'solar heated' so was a bit cool for some of us in the group but that is to be expected in Hawaii in Feb. Only suggestion we would have is that a few more loungers by the pool would be nice as 2 loungers wasn't enough for 6 people. We went from busy Honolulu to the Big Island which has a nice laid back feel and we will definitely stay at this house when we do that again. Date of Stay: 2/10/18 to 2/21/18

This was our fourth visit to this unit on the Big Island. We appreciate its ease of access and privacy. The unit has everything you need to feel at home. The pool is great but we spend most of our time at the Beach Club close to the Mauna Lani resort. The beach is pristine and the snorkeling is amazing. It's proximity to Hapuna State Park and the north part of the island (Waimea and Havi) allow for quick trips to an outstanding market and hiking. Having a grocery store (.3 mi) very close is also convenient. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the lanai upstairs. A perfect Hawaiian retreat. The property is as described and pictured and is a nice set up for 2 couples or family of 4.

We were a group of 6 people with 3 couples. The house was very spacious with 3 bedrooms and three bathrooms. The are two balcony's and a fully equipped kitchen and a comfortable living room. It has a beautiful and big garden. It is located a little up in the mountain where it is very quiet. We enjoyed our time there very much and could not ask for anything better. All together a perfect place to explore big island.

The view is super, the overlook to the ocean spectacular in the day and at sunset too. The decor was lovely and comfortable inside and out, with a well-appointed kitchen and details throughout the house which added to its enjoyment. We had everything we needed and more.

This place was great! Loved the location right next to a great snorkeling beach. And the condo was well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. Highly recommend this place.

Immediately upon parking, I knew we were in for a treat. The property was beautiful, & the house was magnificent. It was incredibly clean, comfortable furnishings, climate controlled, & very welcoming. The area was quiet & comfortable. The pool was a nice cool temperature on a hot day, the patio was great for entertaining & the direction of the back yard offered insane sunset views. We had a group of 7 in the house, & at no point did the place ever feel over crowded to too small. The ONLY critique I can give of the place is that they need a new BBQ, but since I work for Weber, I'm a little biased on the types of grill I use. 😉 Overall, I can't say enough great things about this property, & we'd definitely rent this home again.

This was a wonderful unit! This was our first time renting a unit at Kona Isle. We had to book last minute because our previous VRBO fell through and this unit at Kona Isle met and exceeded all our expectations. The unit was clean and newly furnished. There were boogie boards and beach towels available for use. Though it would be nice if beach chairs and snorkel gear were also available as we had to rent those. We would absolutely stay here again. The ocean view is amazing and we watched whales and surfers from our lanai every morning while eating breakfast before heading out to the beach. We also loved all the other wonderful people who own units at Kona Isle. We felt welcomed and loved on by all our neighbors! The keyless lock entry was perfect so we never had to worry about leaving or losing a room key. While it would have been nicer to be closer to Kona so we could walk to town for dinner that is our only complaint.

Nicely appointed , comfortable 2 BR, 2 BA condo with loft, large lanai with great view towards the coast. Kitchen was great for family gatherings and cooking. Gas grill on the lanai was perfect. Just south of Kona, less busy, less traffic, just up the hill from Keauhou Harbor. A perfect stay for our family. Would definitely rent again. Date of Stay: 2/11/18 to 2/18/18

Condo in pretty good shape. On golf course with view of ocean. We liked new pots and pans! Like most places we rent, poor knives, bring your own. They could use a foam mattress topper on bed and a larger TV. The people above have there tv on loud from morning to 11:00 pm everyday. We where told 9 steps down to condo but are 15 which was very hard for my wife. Date of Stay: 1/30/18 to 2/14/18

Kona Coast Vacations

Great unit with all the essentials. Staff helped us find the unit as we got a little lost coming from the airport. Service was top notch. Pool was clean and beautiful. Views from the unit were great. Quite area. Date of Stay: 2/15/18 to 2/18/18

It was lovely. The house was amazing. We will be back thank you.

Condo E630 was a great space. Clean, Quiet with water view and close to Kona action. My only complaint was the coffee maker took 45 minutes to an hour to brew. After a few days I had the Aloha spirit and didn't care about brew time. Thanks for the memories

This was a great home. We enjoyed the pools, the view, and the comfortable places to sit and talk.

Clean, simple and cosy condo tucked away on the Kona coastline. While this unit isn't ocean front, sunsets on the pool deck area were perfect.

This beautiful condo was everything it was advertised to be. The furnishings were new and comfortable and the view spectacular. The owners thought of adding everything you could need. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

The place was great. Just what we were looking for in the way of location. It was just the two of us so the two extra bedrooms weren't used. Wonderful whale and dolphin watching, and sunset views. If we were ever to buy a place in Hawaii, this is the type we'd look for. The kitchen was very well appointed: cooking gear, plates, flatware, and glassware. The dishwasher is the drawer type, which was nice for two of us: we could load up one drawer and run it. Place mats were an unexpected bonus! Cloth napkins would be wonderful but maybe that's asking too much. Nicely decorated throughout. The pool area is very nice. Plus there is a small restaurant and bar exclusively for residents and guests. The food there was surprisingly good. A trail near the pool area leads to the primitive shoreline trail which takes you to the Hilton area to the south and the black sand beach and Mauna Lani to the north. We would definitely stay here again. This is our fifth consecutive year to vacation on the Big Island but the first in a condo. Seventeen nights at a resort then 12 nights here. There's no late checkout. Our flight off the island is late (10 pm) so we booked an extra night and stayed until 7-ish thus avoiding aimlessly wandering the island between checkout and the drive to the airport.

Great location. Really close to Kona, and local markets. Great access and right on the ocean.

Great house for a getaway with my fiancee and six other friends. The house was beautiful, comfortable, and a really excellent home base for exploring the island. Very close to the airport and Costco, not far from downtown Kona, and it is halfway up the hill to Hwy 190, making it convenient to Saddle Road, and really easy to avoid Kona traffic when trying to get to the South Island sights. This house is also very well stocked with amenities that made our trip really great. The kitchen has plenty of cookware, there was a grill for cooking up fresh tuna, extra beach towels, and even some extra beach chairs, snorkels, and boogie boards & pool noodles available for us to use. I don't think the boogie board and pool noodles are guaranteed (in case they break or get thrown away), but there were fun beach toys which really improved our stay on the island. The office called when we arrived to make sure everything was going well, and called the morning of check-out to remind us what time we had to vacate. Everyone I talked to was really friendly. Great house, great location, no complaints. Date of Stay: 2/10/18 to 2/17/18

This unit has everything you could want and need for a visit to the Big Island! The condo has a stunning view of the ocean from the lanai and MBR. It's a quiet unit although there is definitely noise from the ocean hitting the beach. It has a great location, with a five-minute walk to Kailua Village where shops and restaurants are available. The unit has been remodeled and is equipped with new appliances, Wi-Fi, flat screen TV's, and everything you will need if you plan to make your own meals. The lanai is a perfect size for having morning coffee, sunning, or just relaxing with a good book. Boogie boards, snorkeling equipment, and anything else you might want for a beach adventure is included. You can't miss with this rental! Date of Stay: 2/9/18 to 2/19/18

We had a great stay at this condo just outside of Kona. The unit is in very nice condition, immaculately clean, and has a beautiful golf course view with the ocean in the background. We loved sitting on the the lanai watching all the interesting birds in the tree right outside the unit. The location is perfect - away from the bustle of Kona proper but close enough for a quick trip in for restaurants and shops. Don’t miss the snorkeling at Kahaluu Beach Park just up the road from the Keahou Akahi. Loads of colorful fish plus green sea turtles. Amazing! This was our first trip to Hawaii and we found a winner on this stay. Aloha and Mahalo! Date of Stay: 2/8/18 to 2/12/18

We have stayed in a variety of units here, always on the ground floor. The unit was very well maintained and appointed. Comfortable. Well laid out for cooking, eating, and such. Because of the berm in the lawn, the view from the lanai, when seated, was obscured a bit. We would have preferred a lower table and chairs on the lanai as they are more comfortable for us but that would have compromised the view. The assigned parking spot is close-by, too. Close to the best snorkeling on the island (Kahaluu). The access to the highway is excellent, especially southwards towards Captain cook, Punaluu Bakery, and the Volcano. We will be back. Date of Stay: 1/30/18 to 2/13/18

This house was perfect for our group - we had two couples and a family of three. We had plenty of space, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The property is very clean and the upgraded kitchen is wonderful (although our “resident chef” was disappointed by very dull knives, less than stellar pans, and a lack of a baking sheet - other than those things the kitchen was fully stocked and very user friendly). The outside area is fantastic. The pool was clean and the view and sunsets are incredible. Great to have A/C. Kona coast was very responsive to questions (the only thing they didn’t get to us was a couple more beach towels - we had 7 in our group and only 5 beach towels... we made it work). Minor complaints aside, this is a wonderful place to stay. We’ve stayed in many vacation rentals and this is was one of the best! Date of Stay: 1/24/18 to 2/2/18

Aloha! We had an amazing time at this beautiful home overlooking the ocean. Location was great... had neighbours but felt like we were in our own little paradise! The house had everything we needed... towels, bathroom and kitchen supplies etc.. and lots of space for our party of 8. Loved the pool area and lots of lounge chairs... also enjoyed the hot tub at night watching the sunset. Much to our surprise there was a gas and charcoal BBQ. Amazing smell of burgers, ribs, wings and steak on a charcoal barbecue! No issues and would highly recommend this property to others. David the concierge was very helpful with booking our tours for us. He was just a phone call away when we had any questions and he also called us a few times before our trip to offer his services which we gladly excepted. We did an ATV tour which was a lot of fun but we were a little disappointed with the helicopter tour. We did the Circle Of Fire Tour showing the volcano and a small waterfalls but it did not compare with the helicopter tour we did on Maui which showed all the beauty of the valleys and water falls on that island. Make sure you really know what you want/expect to see on the island and that you book a tour that will show you those things! Mahalo to all that made our holiday on Big Island a vacation to remember! Date of Stay: 2/2/18 to 2/9/18

Spent five days here after five days at a high end hotel. This was far better as it was larger, less expensive and much quieter. Amenities were good and home was well furnished. Appreciated the laundry facility in house and as we were on the third floor, elevator when packing groceries was grand. Will definitely try to rent here again.

The unit was very nice. It was not immaculately cleaned, but this is understandable due to the quick turnaround and reoccupation. All appliances work properly, and they are modern. The washer-dryer combo is small, but mighty. Excellent pool/spa facility. Beautiful walks with easy trekking to shopping and beaches. Very courteous and helpful staff.  Overall, a great vacation value.

We enjoyed an amazing vacation with the lovely accommodations at Kanaloa. I know we will return. Stayed: 2/15/18

Our condo was nice and clean. The view and beach was amazing. We were very pleased and would like to stay again. Date of Stay: 1/23/18 to 2/10/18

Our group of 3 couples + 1 baby LOVED this condo. The condo is situated so that you can see the ocean from the common living area + master bedroom. It's in a convenient location (20 - 30 min drive from Kona airport), has a grocery store nearby (Foodland), and a couple of beaches nearby. The pool with adjacent bar / restaurant was also convenient since you could watch the sunset there. Top notch appliances and fully stocked kitchen made it easy to cook meals. The DVD player was a bit old (so picture quality was not great), but we brought our AppleTV, so that worked out fine. I'd highly recommend this condo to others, and I'm definitely going to try to come back again! Date of Stay: 1/27/18 to 2/3/18

Wonderful to be right on the ocean! By far the most well-stocked Airbnb we've stayed in, didn't need to worry about any supplies. Hosts were available to help with questions. Place was clean, and store across the highway. Down side is it's right on the highway, so bedrooms 2 and 3 are noisy, trash truck at 4:30am, surfers congregating at 6:00am. Otherwise it's a great place, and we recommend. Date of Stay: 1/26/18 to 2/1/18

The Kona Bay Beachhouse fit our group of eight perfectly. We were surprised at the abundance of amenities, including towels, beach chairs and coolers. The kitchen was equally well supplied. The property has ocean views from several rooms as well as an endless supply of outdoor space, We never felt cramped. The best part of the house was walking a few feet to the beach and a nice trail that led to the Old Airport park. We were also very close to town for dining and shopping. The house seemed a little expensive at first, but after dividing it by four couples, it was a bargain. We'd do the trip again soon if we could. Date of Stay: 1/30/18 to 2/6/18

Great place to stay with a group. Make sure you have transportation. Date of Stay: 2/5/18 to 2/10/18

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay at Hale Akoa. We were absolutely impressed with the house, the decor of the house and the cleanliness. The house was beautiful with a stunning view. You could tell that the owners really cared about the house, it was stylishly decorated and perfectly cared for. Lots of aloha in the details. The house had lots of space for everyone with big rooms and we loved how the living room opened up completely onto the lanai. The house was also perfectly managed, it was very clean and it had anything and everything we could want or need. We enjoyed cooking big meals for the group in the huge kitchen that had everything a cook would need. Truly, there was nothing that was missing. Kona Coast Vacations, thanks for making everything perfect for our vacation! Date of Stay: 1/27/18 to 2/3/18

Great house in private neighborhood. The pool, lanai, and outdoor space were perfect for our family. It does get quite warm in the afternoons, but cools back down at night. Overall a great place to stay with easy access to Kona. Date of Stay: 1/29/18 to 2/3/18

Very nice condo- Clean, comfortable, well appointed. Close to town, convenient base for sight seeing on west side of the island .

This property was super clean, very spacious, and well appointed. Awesome views, very nice neighborhood, and quick access down to the Keauhou shopping center for groceries and some great restaurants like Sam Choy's. Would absolutely recommend this property for anyone wanting to stay in the Kailua-Kona area. This is the first time we've stayed South of town and we really enjoyed it. Kona Coast Vacation Rentals was great to work with and super accommodating. They even went out of their way to bring over extra lounge chairs for the pool for our guests. As an owner of a larger management company I can say I was impressed with their service and would certainly rent from them again. It was easy to understand why they have such a good rating online. Date of Stay: 1/27/18 to 2/9/18

Fantastic location, with great ocean views and a coffee shop just a minutes walk away. Condo was super clean and had everything we needed for a great family stay. Pool and BBQ areas are lovely. Will definitely stay here again! Date of Stay: 12/27/17 to 1/17/18

Everything was great. Good instructions on how to find the unit, unit was exactly as described. Finding parking spot took a while, maybe misunderstood directions, arrived at around midnight. Close proximity to downtown was a plus. Would stay there again.

The views where breathtaking I’m a late sleeper but all 3 days I woke up at 7am without an alarm just to have breakfast at sunrise watching the water on the balcony ..it was serine.. and it has most amenities besides the food you eat and drinks you need.. Everything was so clean and cozy.. Date of Stay: 2/6/18 to 2/9/18

We enjoyed this quiet location away from the commercial zones further north. The small shopping center just down the road had grocery store and restaurants (we enjoyed the brew pub) The condo is well equipped. The beach sun tent was a nice surprise. We spent a lot of time on the lanai, enjoying the bird activity and the view of the golf course and water. Communication with Kona Coast was excellent before and during our stay. Date of Stay: 2/1/18 to 2/5/18

The condo was perfect for my wife and I. Condo was spacious and nicely appointed. The landscaping within the complex was extremely well-tended as well as the entire surrounding area. Great location with easy access to restaurants, groceries, shopping, and gas. The unit is not on the ocean, but we took a 15 minute walk almost every evening to Buddha Point to view the ocean sunset. The beautiful pool is a very short walk away. Restaurants are expensive. We got in a pattern of breakfast in, lunch out, and grabbing prepared food at Queens Market for dinner. Probably the best beach on the island, Hapuna Beach, is only a 15 minute drive to the north. If we return, we would definitely choose this unit again. Date of Stay: 1/22/18 to 2/2/18

Lovely Condo in Kona. Beautiful ocean view from the lanai. We kept the door open all night and fell asleep to the sounds of waves crashing. Short drive or long walk to most restaurants in town. Loved staying there!

We very much enjoyed staying at this unit. It is large and spacious with lots of windows. The kitchen is wonderfully equipped, and we enjoyed cooking in a couple of nights. There are two gas grills nearby, which we took advantage of. The condo and neighborhood was also very quiet which we very much appreciated. One major complaint - the dryer was a big problem. Made terrible noises and it turns out it ruined a couple items of our clothing. We called maintenance, and someone came out the next day and told us not use it anymore since a new part needed ordering. It would have been nice if the previous renters had informed management about the problem so it could have been fixed before we checked in. I am surprised that the cleaning crew would not have been aware, especially if they use the washer / dryer to clean towels. It should have been reported. Beyond that, all else was good. Response from tech support for the internet connection was great and we had no issues after an initial hiccup. Very friendly and very professional. Location wise, we also appreciated being not too far for a pleasant walk to the beach for sunsets. Waikoloa is a beautiful resort area with quite a bit of housing diversity options. We were happy with our choice and would return in the future. We will likely opt for an ocean view place next time, rather than being on the golf course.

This property was a very nice property, and met or exceeded our exceptions. The property was clean and well taken care of. If when we go back to The Big Island we will try and stay at this same property.

This place was wonderful; clean and comfortable with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The pool was a great spot to land at the end of the day. The deck provided a beautiful view of the sunrise and the ocean. Kona Coast Vacations provided a helpful person to whom we could turn with any questions or concerns. Date of Stay: 1/25/18 to 1/29/18

Perfect ocean view.

We stayed at this wonderful property for 2 weeks January 2018. Since we were travelling with seniors, we were delighted that its entry is ground level. It has a fabulous west facing lanai over looking the golf course. It was the perfect shady spot to read, watch the golfers, Nene and spectacular sunsets. The location is great for walking to restaurants and grocery store. We also did short drives to the ocean front for snorkeling and scenic areas for hiking The furnishings were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped for our chef. Thank you for a wonderful holiday! Date of Stay: 1/5/18 to 1/18/18

A great place for big family gathering. Detail oriented management, quick response and courteous services. The hot water supply was quite limited. The water from the shower heads was too spread out. Cleaning fee (over $400) was excessive.

Overall very nice place and quiet!

Stayed in this condo for a month. Very nicely furnished and great location. Convenient to pool. Short walk to snorkeling beach and grocery store and restaurants. Great location!

Kona Coast Vacations was wonderful to work with, and David from Kona Concierge was super helpful and found us amazing things to do on the island for a reasonable price. Would definitely go w both of these companies again. Great experience! Date of Stay: 1/20/18 to 1/27/18

Amazing location and view. The pool is Amazing as well as the layout of the house. Plenty of room to lounge visit and enjoy the sunset. Date of Stay: 1/20/18 to 1/27/18

This is a great place. One of the best I've ever stayed in. I am an Airbnb super host myself and this place has so many thoughtful touches! I can't list them all so the big ones are: super clean, fans in every room plus on the lanai, nice furniture and decor. extra pillows, sheets and towels. There were four of us, we cooked every meal during our 7 day stay and had plenty of dishes. Big fridge with ice maker, big kitchen with plenty of room to sit inside or out. Lovely extras like novels, cookbook, cards, sunscreen, some spices, fins, beach chairs and umbrellas. Washer and dryer! plus my favorite, an old fashioned accordian style clothing rack to hang towels and bathing suits on. Location is great. The beach is just across the street, you can see it from the Lanai and watch the sunset every night. We were there at high season so lots of people staying next door and behind us as well as the complex we were in but it was quiet. There is the sweetest little black kitty that hangs out. If you have extra food the lifegaurds on the beach are always hungry and grateful for any donations. They have a trailer with a fridge for when they take their breaks. We gave them a box of fruit and dairy that we had left. I for one can not throw food away. There are also numerous homeless around as well, I noticed every plate of food I put out at night was gone by morning.(at the beach and the little church next to the beach) Date of Stay: 1/11/18 to 1/18/18

This home is in a very quiet neighborhood with a great pool and hot tub on the lanai. The layout worked great for two couples giving us privacy with bedrooms on each side of the house. Very convenient location to snorkeling, beaches, grocery stores, dining and sunshine. We'll be back. Date of Stay: 1/16/18 to 1/25/18

Aloha! This home was absolutely perfect for our 10-day family vacation to The Big Island! We were able to explore just about the entire island; having Akoa Place as our home base made it all so convenient. I couldn’t imagine a lovelier home! Mahalo, Lawless Family Date of Stay: 1/2/18 to 1/12/18

Excellent property. Great view great house. Lovely time had by all. Date of Stay: 1/6/18 to 1/15/18

Great Sunset view, soft sounds of the surf, and a "home away from home" feel to this unit. Date of Stay: 1/14/18 to 1/20/18

excellent property in a perfect location for us. would definitely recommend it. Date of Stay: 1/17/18 to 1/24/18

Very nice condo in a great location! Date of Stay: 1/18/18 to 1/22/18

This is a great vacation spot for 2 couples - 2 private bedrooms both with private bathrooms. The kitchen is very modern and has everything. There was no need for us to buy any paper products (toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, etc.) - this was appreciated. The views were amazing, particularly the sunsets. Everything was wonderful. Date of Stay: 1/6/18 to 1/13/18

Excellent location only 5min drive from Kona . Had everything you could ask for in a self catering unit . Overall property was fantastic with friendly staff . Kona coast vacations were very quick to respond to any questions . Would have no hesitation in recommending the property or Kona coast vacations . Date of Stay: 1/13/18 to 1/20/18

Stunning house, great location, has everything you need and more! Highly recommend it. Date of Stay: 1/15/18 to 1/21/18

We really enjoyed our stay here and the location can't be beat. It is less than a minute' s walk across the street to one of the best snorkel beaches on the big island. The balcony has a lovely ocean view and the suite itself is very comfortable and clean. Our only disappointment is that we didn't book a longer stay! Date of Stay: 1/19/18 to 1/22/18

Nice one bedroom unit, spacious, airy and light with a fantastic view of Kona/Kailua Bay. Very well maintained grounds, pool and BBQs.

We were very pleased with the studio we stayed in. Everything we needed was there, clean and easy to get to all the sights we wanted. The birds were amazing , the view breathtaking. Perfect for our vacation, we will return!

We really enjoyed our stay at 333 Mauni Lani Villages! The house had everything we needed. Well stocked with everything, towels, bedding, dishes, even beach chairs, cooler, umbrellas etc. It was a beautiful place! Perfect area, close to the shops for supplies. Beach was beautiful with great snorkelling. The house is set up perfect for 3 couples or a large family. Each bedroom has an ensuite and large closets. We had trouble with bbq tank the first day, all we had to do was call and another was delivered. Would definitely rent again!

This house is immaculate. The views go on and on for miles. We had family join us for a total of 8 people. Our ages ranged from 60 to 19. I can tell you no matter what age we all had a blast. Plenty of room for us to hide if we needed down time. The pool and outside lanai were used the most. This home is exactly as shown in the pictures. Kinda funny we like to get out and explore but we all felt guilty for leaving this house. I would highly recommend. So many provisions were provided with the rental it made our vacation almost stress free. Thank you Kona coast for making this a great experience. The welcoming gift basket was nice and thoughtful. We did have a problem with the code and I can tell you that the after hours emergency number not only worked but had us in the house in no time at all. We also experienced a shower door that kept coming off it's hinge a quick call to maintenance and a few ours later it was like new. I also want to give a shout out to David our concierge. David arranged some super great trips at discounted prices for us. Thank you!! What can I say this rental thought of everything. Thanks, Smith family Date of Stay: 1/19/18 to 1/28/18

Comfortable and well stocked condo with incredible ocean views from the shady lanai. The interior was lively and clean with great amenities . Location of condo was perfect; close to Kona village but not in crowded part of town. Easy access and parking was no problem. Date of Stay: 1/21/18 to 1/25/18

Very good, the house was perfect for 4 couples. There could have been better cutlery, bigger toaster and better coffee maker. Date of Stay: 1/16/18 to 1/26/18

We love this Apartment,with a View on the Golfclub and the Sea. Years ago we were in this same Location,which is now renovated.You have all the things you need to feel comfortable.We hope to come back soon.

Amazing house in perfect location. Great snorkeling at the beach just across the street. Hope to stay there again! Date of Stay: 1/17/18 to 1/22/18

This is a beautiful unit in a very friendly building. The location right next to Magic Sands beach is perfect allowing quick beach excurtions without using the car. The interior has been renovated providing lots of counter space for easy meal preparation. Oodles of cupboards for storage and a large bathroom with ample shower. Bed very comfortable. Good to have a car for shopping and site seeing. No restaurants or grocery stores nearby. Date of Stay: 1/13/18 to 1/28/18

We have changed our favorite place in Kona to Sea Village. I adored the room and decor which was stunning and relaxing. The view from the deck was amazing and we did see yellow tang and blue fish from the deck. We were close to everything in Kona and all the snorkeling you could want. This stay really was saving the best for last. Date of Stay: 1/19/18 to 1/22/18

Great! Kitchen had all we needed. Beautiful lanai. Good to be across the street from a great snorkel beach. Suggestions: Only the master bedroom had drawers to put clothes. The smaller bedrooms had no dressers, just closets and the bedroom with 2 beds had a closet with lots of beach gear and not much room for clothing. The storage cabinet was locked so the only space was the bedside table or floor. It's nice to unpack your suitcase and feel at home. Also the two beds were shorter than a twin size. The last day we figured out you can move the headboards to get a few more inches. Date of Stay: 1/14/18 to 1/21/18

We rent a lot of VRBO type of homes and own one ourselves. It's hard to find a good management company, but this one is great. They stock the essentials well such as paper towels, soaps, sponge, etc. There were a couple small repairs needed and they were quick and friendly about it. The condo was very clean and well taken care of. Thank you to the owners for stocking the kitchen with everything needed including good knives, pans and tupperware. Those items are almost never in a typical rental because tenants destroy everything. The view here is the best! Even the pillows in the master are very comfortable. If I were to ask for anything it would just be personal preference items such as a queen bed instead of twins in the 2nd room and a larger frying pan. The complex recently redid the pool too since our last visit. I highly recommend this unit. I don't say that about many places. We loved our stay and I could see us coming back here again!!

The vacation unit was truly fantastic from the décor to the cleanliness to the great views

Our stay at Kona Pacific condos was great. We loved the condo and appreciated the fact that all the paper products were sufficient. Great location, quiet but close enough to walk to eating establishments. Date of Stay: 1/15/18 to 1/23/18

We fell in love with IO way the moment we arrived, and were never disappointed! It is the most peaceful place to be at! From the views to the pool to the hot tub, we loved coming home at the end of a busy day and just relaxing! The rooms were perfect for our family, and the kitchen was stocked with many high-end appliances and extras. I would stay there again if I could! Even though it's not on the beach, we actually enjoyed the view better, and loved getting away from the crowds. David at Kona Concierge did a fabulous job of picking out the best activities for us. The morning snorkel and dolphin cruise was fabulous, and they even stopped so we could follow a mama and baby whale! Ate dinner at Jackie Rey's at the recommendation of the property managers, and it was excellent!

The condo was a perfect spot for us to enjoy our visit to the "Big Island." Beds were comfortable, linens and towels were new, healthy assortment of appliances and kitchen utensils. Was really nice to see, and to be able to use, the assortment of beach toys - thanks, nice touch. Having turtles regularly visit the beach directly under the lanai was a thrill. Date of Stay: 1/7/18 to 1/21/18

We have stayed at other units here at Casa de Emdeko but we really like this unit. It is very clean, well maintained and cosy. It was not as close to the salt water pool as other units and is therefore a little more quiet. It has all the conveniences including dishwasher, fridge, stove and HD TV Perfect location for a nice vacation. Date of Stay: 12/27/17 to 1/20/18

Beautiful oceanfront Location. House was well equipped and everything in working order. Quiet neighborhood. Quick drive to Kona or a 10-15 min. Walk. Management company excellent as well. Date of Stay: 1/8/18 to 1/14/18

Though the kitchen was flooded a caused clogged drain pipe after our arrival, the repair staff came soon. And wine opener and can opener were broken, but brought us new ones soon. They took care of us well. All belongings are enough, well equipped, we're so satisfied totally. Date of Stay: 12/16/17 to 12/26/17

We were very happy and comfortable in this unit. It is very well equipped in every way. We enjoyed sunsets from our lanai. We cooked most of our meals here and found nothing lacking. Our concierge, David, was attentive and very helpful. Would certainly return. Date of Stay: 1/4/18 to 1/16/18

After having been BURNED by another rental company and owner, we were VERY HAPPY with the proactive, responsive, accurate and attentive service of the Kona Coast team. We rented 2 units from them, both were as advertised and the kitchens were well equipped. There were also boogy boards to use, camping chairs, coolers, etc. Of course, the prices were premium during the high season and I would not normally have paid what we did for what was offered. But fair is fair and the Kona Coast team was great. Date of Stay: 12/22/17 to 1/1/18

This unit was very large and comfortable. The service was wonderful - when we realized 2 chairs were missing from the balcony, they were brought within a couple of hours. The kitchen was well stocked and the view from the balcony is amazing. We saw dolphins in the bay and a couple of whale spouts. You cannot swim in the ocean from the unit due to high surf and rocky access, but the pool is warm. Date of Stay: 1/6/18 to 1/13/18

Very nice and spacious. Everything you will need and withing walking distance to main Kona. Date of Stay: 12/2917 to 1/9/18

I would stay here again. Very nice grounds, friendly and very quiet neighbors all around. The unit itself was gorgeous. No major issues, plenty of beach towels, very good amenities. Pool is beautiful. Walk to beach is about 15-20 minutes or so depending on route you choose. Date of Stay: 1/2/18 to 1/13/18

We really enjoyed to stay this ocean view unit! We sit in balcony and watched whales and dolphins in the open ocean and it was very nice experience for us and made our holidays more wonderful. Very well managed vacation unit: clear instruction with greeting from the company in the first night, equipped a lot necessary items even chairs for beach use, clean room and much more. The location is excellent. We walked in the streets at nights. We will stay this unit again if we come to the Big island in the future. Date of Stay: 1/6/18 to 1/9/18

Very comfortable and beautiful property. We liked the split bedroom arrangement and the large open living area. It was perfect for a family holiday get together.

The condo was better than expected. Lots of space and a great floor plan. Date of Stay: 12/15/17 to 1/4/18

House was very clean and well suited for eight people. There were minor problems ie Barbeque,propane screen doors that were dealt with quickly and efficiently. Hot tub took a little longer to resolve but completed to our satisfaction. All Kona staff were were polite and willing to help. We felt very secure in gated community and felt location was central to any of our needs. We would recommend Kona Coast Vacations for your vacation requirements. Date of Stay: 12/29/17 to 1/11/18

Our stay at Waikoloa Fairways C217 was a great experience. The condo has a great floor plan, was very clean and well appointed. Our family of five had plenty of room. While a bit of a drive is required to get to beaches, the value outweighs the inconvenience. Would stay here again. Date of Stay: 12/28/17 to 1/8/18

Would highly recommend Keauhou Resorts ... in particular unit 120! Beautiful sunsets and accommodations. Date of Stay: 12/20/17 to 1/3/18

Very professional, provides everything needed for a short stay. Super clean, good location, nice oceans views and pretty spacious. Date of Stay: 1/3/18 to 1/8/18

Really cool spot. Will try to book again if I come back. They have Tupperware, sandwich bags, all kinds of little things that I’ve never seen at an AirBnB before that made it really feel like home. Date of Stay: 1/2/18 to 1/7/18

Overall, the photos and description are as promised! The condo was very clean, included all stated amenities and was beautiful. Prior to arrival the communication was very good and responsive to our inquiries. Getting to and from "downtown/main street" was very easy. Although only about 6 miles away, the amount of time to travel varied on time of day and route. We were very happy and pleased!! Date of Stay: 12/24/17 to 1/4/18

This property is so well located, just a short walk to the restaurants and shops on Ali's drive. The condo is right on the ocean and we saw dolphins and whales from the balcony. It also is perfect for watching the sunset in the evening. There is ample parking, the suite has a washer and dryer. The linens were very clean. We mostly cooked only breakfasts and the kitchen was well appointed. There were beach chairs, an umbrella and beach towels which we really appreciated. It is not a 5 star all inclusive resort but we wanted a place that we could make a comfortable home base that wasn't pretentious and this was perfect along with a stunning view and crashing waves. Date of Stay: 12/22/17 to 1/5/18

Hali'i Kai is an excellent place to stay. It was a perfect location, close to restaurants and shops in the Waikoloa Beach area. The place was in tip-top condition, and had a wonderful patio to stare off into the ocean. I would absolutely stay here again on my next visit to the Big Island. Date of Stay: 1/7/18 to 1/11/18

This house is beautiful and in an excellent location to explore Hawaii Island. The house did not disappoint as the amenities and descriptions were as advertised, enabling our extended family to enjoy our vacation while enjoying BBQ, oceanside relaxation and lots of space. Kona Coast manages the place well, instructions and communication is overall clear and the team is very proactive before, during and after our stay. While there were one or two minor issues, those are to be expected when renting a house. Overall, I recommend highly both this property and Kona Coast Vacations management. Date of Stay: 12/22/17 to 1/3/18

If you want a spacious with all the comforts place to stay with spectacular views this is a place to stay. Checkin and check out was extremely efficient and pleasurable. Date of Stay: 12/25/17 to 1/4/18

Nice furniture, excellent location. gulf course view, nice size 2 story with 2 bedrooms, 2.5 very nice baths, garage available, cooling repaired on weekend, wonderful 2nd floor balcony, enjoyed Java,Java very enjoyable restaurant

We just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful stay in our accommodations at Sea Village in early November 2017. We loved the condominium (2102), and the grounds including the pool, hot tub, and BBQ facilities. The location was perfect for us and we felt very comfortable and at home there. We hope to return to the Big Island sometime in 2019, probably February or March, and we are hoping to stay in the same condo, if possible. Once we have established a firm date, I will inquire again. I hope you are all doing well and Thank You so much ~ Mahalo ! ~ for the wonderful vacation stay. We thoroughly enjoyed it! Date of Stay: 11/2/17 to 11/10/17

We stayed at #401 Kona Bali Kai for our family vacation. The condo was perfect for our family of 4 (with two teenagers) and was perfectly located for a "home base" for our Big Island adventures. The condo is just as described and pictured . The view from the balcony is beautiful - there is a table and chairs and we enjoyed a number of meals on the balcony, enjoying the sounds of ocean surf and watching the surfers. The bedrooms and bathrooms had plenty of towels, and hairdryers were available. the Washer and Dryer certainly came in handy during our week-long vacation. Beds were quite comfortable, and there were ceiling fans and/or floor fans in every room. Two of the bedrooms do face the road and there was some street noise (although the kids slept fine!). There was a pool on property, although we did not use it during our stay. Everything was very clean, well maintained and nicely furnished. The communication with the rental agency was excellent - and we appreciated the concierge assistance with planning some activities while on the island! We were so glad to have found this condo for our vacation home and would highly recommend! Thank you! Date of Stay: 12/23/17 to 12/30/17

An absolute dream house. Where to start? First off, very much appreciated booking through VRBO and Kona Coast Vacations, no troubles at all with the booking and all information received for us to have an enjoyable 6 nights. The house is even better than the pictures. The owners clearly put a lot of thought into it. All pictures are accurate, but its so mich better to see first hand. 3 bedrooms, lots of indoor space. The kitchen is well eqipped. The outdoors reflects the beauty of the house, with infinity pool, jacuzzi, BBQ, lounge chairs and ample spaces to relax and take sun or enjoy the magnificent sun sets. The only downside is leaving. Truly want to take this house with me. Date of Stay: 1/6/18 to 1/12/18

Beautiful view of the ocean, daily surfers and sea turtles. Beautiful master and nice living, dining, and kitchen spaces. Pool and hot tub also. Upgrades would really be great to furniture and some attention to sliding doors and dishwasher. Date of Stay: 12/18/17 to 1/2/18

We enjoyed our stay at this condo. The unit was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It had a lot of beach gear which my kids really enjoyed. The complex was quiet and my kids loved the swimming pool.

We had a lovely vacation at Awamoa Place. The home is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out on the lanais and enjoying the sunsets. The kitchen is well-equipped and we had some lovely meals during our stay. We had fun exploring the island, and appreciated the beach chairs and umbrellas that were available in the garage. We would love to return. We recommend this property. Date of Stay: 12/2817 to 1/6/18

Everything was great and the house is beautiful. The property was more than adequate and everything we needed worked well. Two fan controllers were inoperative and the fans run continuously which was fine for us but a draw on the owners utility. One trim cover was removed so i assumed this has been addressed in the past or is in the process of repair. the two fans were in the front entry and over the dining. The only suggestion would be to have a few beach chairs to go along with the towels but not a big deal, we enjoyed our stay very much and will consider this property again and definitely contact Kona Coast Vacations next Hawaii visit. Date of Stay: 12/31/17 to 1/10/18

This place was great. It’s spacious and has a great lanai where you can sit out and see the ocean. The beach is a short walk away. It’s a quick drive into Kona where you can find plenty of restaurants and shops. The place itself was very clean. The building it’s in is quiet. There’s parking underneath the building. We felt very well taken care of and I definitely recommend. Date of Stay: 12/30/17 to 1/2/18

This unit was so comfortable. At first we were hoping to rent one of the units closer to the ocean ( 20 feet closer) but after listening to the crashing ocean day after day we were glad to be back a bit. We had the best seat in the house for relaxing quiet sunsets. One thing we look for is access to a BBQ when we rent. With this complex you have no fear of that. There are so few people the place is quiet, always have an empty pool area, so it feels like you have it all to yourself.The unit was clean and modern with everything you need to just settle in. It is also located close enough to downtown Kona that you could (we often did) walk to town although it is a 20 minute walk.We really enjoyed our stay at Kona Riviera #203. Oh and David, the concierge, was over the top in his suggestions and assistance in booking activities. He knows the companies that will look after you. Use his service, you can trust he will get you great memories. Date of Stay: 12/24/17 to 1/5/18

The rental unit was up-to-date very beautiful and clean. Great location walking distance to town.

The condo was a perfect size for the two of us. It had every amenity we could have wanted including two bathrooms! Being on the golf course resulted in a beautiful setting with a sunset every night and expansive ocean view beyond the course. I would tend to warn anyone considering this unit to be aware of the early morning maintenance (manicuring) of the course, and sometimes at odd times during the day. It didn't bother us, generally, but might be of concern to anyone wanting total serenity at all hours. This unit did not offer any 'leftovers' from previous renters (such as sugar, flour, spices, coffee, canned or boxed goods, etc.), as we have encountered with every other condo we've rented in the Kona area. Not sure why, but another thing to keep in mind upon arrival in the event you assumed there might be a tad of coffee grounds in the freezer to get your started the next morning, for instance. You might want to make a stop to pick up anything you will want that following day in the event the time difference makes it slow-going in the morning. Overall, we would rent this unit again if is available the next time around. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with the comfort, the quality of the unit, or the location. Close to everything needed, yet not in the midst of the chaos closer to Kona village. Date of Stay: 12/23/17 to 1/2/18

This house had a nice layour for our vacationing family of four (mom, dad, and 2 teenage daughters). Main floor has entry foyer, family room, and kitchen with a wall of glass doors to the west opening on to the lanai and infinity pool overloking the ocean view. Second floor has two bedrooms that share a bath to the east and the master suite with screened balcony alcoves looking once again to the ocean. We were cool enough to sleep with the ceiling fans and screened windows open during our 2 week stay over Christmas/New Years...not sure that would be the case in the summer months. Kitchen has a large pantry and almost enough cooking utensils...seemed we were always needing something. Pool is beautiful but was too cold to swim in for our family...once again winter months. Location is convenient to Kailua-Kona. Home is decorated with native Hawaiian décor that we found interesting. We did have an issue with the microwave oven and contacted Kona Coast Rentals. They were very attentive and replaced the microwave within an hour. Date of Stay: 12/221/17 to 1/4/18

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Kona Reef in A37. The location was fantastic, the views were excellent. The unit was well stocked with everything you would need...the only thing missing was some utensils for the barbecue. The experience as a whole was a border line 4+ star and the only reason why I don't rate it a 5 is that the unit does need some upgrades primarily to the bathrooms, and a deep cleaning...again to the bathrooms. The twin bedded bedroom could use a curtain to black out the light as well. BuI was impressed with KCV, they do a good job calling to check in prior to and upon you departure to see how its going. Date of Stay: 12/23/17 to 1/2/18

This is an Excellent View unit that is greatly furnished with everything you will ever need for your stay. The View is fantastic A+. I think one of the best that is on this property, with a view of the Pool and the Ocean and coastline looking North towards Kona. You will not be disapointed with this unit as it is one of the best VRBO units we have rented anywhere. Date of Stay: 12/24/17 to 1/4/18

Unbelievable property. You won’t regret staying here amazing views great ambiance nothing bad to say at all. The concierge service was also great, used them to book a fishing trip and also got some great tips for hiking. Definitely staying here again. A hui hou. Date of Stay: 12/15/17 to 12/20/17

The condominium is very tastefully furnished, has a very good view of the ocean, and is conveniently located. The entire condominium was very clean and well maintained. The barbeque was convenient for cooking seafood dinners, and other Alii Villa residents we saw were friendly. We would like to return and stay for a longer period next time. David was very helpful in sending information and suggestions in advance of the visit. Date of Stay: 12/4/17 to 12/9/17

This condo is centrally located, with easy access to local grocery and other stores. The condo has modern, upgraded amenities and is in excellent condition. Only a 1 minute walk to beautiful private beach. The property is well maintained, with pool and tennis courts. We had a great stay here! Date of Stay: 12/22/17 to 12/29/17

The house was even better than the pictures. Two large living rooms, 4 bedrooms, and numerous outdoor spaces. We had 9 in our group, and we were very comfortable. The pool isn't huge, but was large enough to float around in, and the hot tub was great - also a really nice side yard. House is in a neighborhood, but has a long driveway and feels quite private. House was very clean and well-stocked. Our group also REALLY appreciated the assistance in planning our vacation from David of Kona Concierge. Highly recommended! Date of Stay: 12/17/17 to 12/27/17

We enjoyed our stay very much. The place is big and nicley furnished. The kitchen has everything you need. We cooked 9/10 in the apartment, as we loved our balcony with the seaview so much. You can even sip on your drink while watching the sunset from the balcony. The view from the bedroom is also very nice - the ocean is smiling at you. The bed is one of the most COMFY ones we ever had. The own laundry facilities in the apt. were very handy as well. Date of Stay: 12/11/17 to 12/21/17

I never write reviews but I am writing this to give giant props to Asi at Kona Coast properties and the entire concierge staff. They allowed us to mail Christmas presents to their office for our children and were so accommodating when we were late. Asi took the time to bring the packages to us ON HER DAY OFF so our kids would have presents. So thoughtful. The unit is clean and has a comfortable bed. Everything works. There are no "extras" like beach chairs or a decent cooler etc... like you find in some of the units but it had all of the basics. Date of Stay: 12/24/17 to 1/3/18

Kona Reefer was awesome we rented condo’s A4 / A32 both faced right on the ocean .. couldn’t get a better view,coffee in the morning and sunsets in the evening were da-kine..Very quite nice pool and grounds,condos were ice and clean. A32 could use a little up dating but wouldn’t stop me from renting again. A4 was nicely done..very close to everything in downtown Kona but not in the middle of all the bars and restaurants which we liked .. Had a great time! Date of Stay: 12/19/17 to 12/30/17

The big island and Kona are a great place to vacation. The house is in a perfect location for sunsets, a quiet beach, close to restaurants and shopping. You can see whale from the house. The house is well stocked to make a great vacation. Rooms are very comfortable. A nice gated community. Date of Stay: 12/20/17 to 12/30/17

My family of eight rented this property for two weeks. It worked great for our family! It was spacious, had a great kitchen, 4 nice bedrooms with adjoining baths, and a spectacular view of the ocean. Great location in a gated community. Lovely neighborhood with sidewalks that make for great walking and running. I highly recommend this property! Date of Stay: 12/2/17 to 12/16/17

My husband and I stayed at Sea Village the week of 12/8-12/15. The condo was amazing with a great view of the bay each day. Great access to all the local spots for food and entertainment! Easy to find parking and easy to get in and out for our days adventures. We loved the space with lots of room to stretch out and enjoy ourselves from a fun days outing. Great amenities and very quiet and spot for our first time in Kona.

Had a great time! Everything was easy and as described. Date of Stay: 12/16/17 to 12/23/17

The Ailina House was absolutely incredible! The view from the lanai and infinity pool was enjoyed by all each night. We were also very close to Safeway, Walmart, and Costco, so we were able to cook from home most meals. David, the concierge, was knowledgeable and very helpful in booking activities for us. We definitely recommend the dolphin excursion! Date of Stay: 12/11/17 to 12/18/17

My girlfriend and I spent a week at the place with Kona Coast Vacations, and it was amazing. The space was clean, had all the amenities we needed, and was so close to the water that we could hear the waves with the door open all through the day and night, which was so relaxing. The building is also very centrally located in Kona, just a few minutes to the downtown area, so exploring on foot or by bike was very simple and easy. We were very encouraged to explore all the time because of how easy it was to get to and from the place. Great time overall! Date of Stay: 12/14/17 to 12/22/17

Location is perfect, the surfing beach is at backyard, and the famous white sand beach is half a mile away. The condo is clean, spacious, family friendly, a bunch of snorkeling equipment and beach towels provided. Date of Stay: 12/17/17 to 12/20/17

Great location close to one of the best snorkeling locations on the island. The rental was very clean and well maintained. Date of Stay: 12/11/17 to 12/18/17

This is our second time with Sea Village, which is in a great location. It is a great place to spend the night, but plan on leaving all day because there is not much there. There is no shore access on the property, but beaches are nearby. Sunsets are great from the pool. Alii Street is a very busy traffic zone, but that comes with the territory. Green Flash Coffee is right there in front of Sea Village. Not only good coffee, but great healthy foods.

D 33 Kona Reef was fabulous. I wish we planned to stay longer. There is everything you need including beach supplies. The guide tells you and the tips and tricks of the island. Date of Stay: 12/16/17 to 12/19/17

This place is better than the pictures shown! By far, the best Air B&B I have had the chance to stay in... Took my 84 year old mother and wife and they absolutely loved every minute we spent at the property. Every detail you can think of has been thought out by the owner... Impeccable in appearance and amenities... The view is stunning... Access to downtown Kona just an elevator ride away... Pool and outdoor BBQ on ground floor are great... The complex residents are superb. They are friendly and treat you like family... This place should be rated 6 stars!!! Thank you for having us and we look forward to being able to return in the future... Happy New Year!!! Thank you for an excellent stay... Date of Stay: 12/17/17 to 12/29/17

The condo itself has it all. Comfy beds, very convenient technology/computer/sound system and much much more. Walking distance to most things Kona. Great space, if there wasn’t so much to do outside it would be easy to stay in. Date of Stay: 12/12/17 to 12/17/17

This is the ultimate pad in Kona, spacious, bright and sparkling clean! The deck is huge and perfect for morning coffee and afternoon drinks, would stay here again in a heartbeat! Date of Stay: 12/4/17 to 12/19/17

A beautiful home with all amenities provided. Is suited well to an adult party with all bedrooms having private bathrooms, and plenty of space between rooms. We really enjoyed our stay. The home is beautifully set up and presented. Date of Stay: 12/8/17 to 12/15/17

Great location! This condo was comfortable, clean, and well supplied. We especially loved the Mountain View of the sunrise each morning on the Lanai. The hot tub and pool were so close to the condo we used it every day. Date of Stay: 12/18/17 to 12/30/17

We've stayed in Kona / Keauhou many times and really enjoy this location near the beaches, harbour and shopping center. The condo itself is wonderfully appointed with everything you could ever need (boogey boards / flashlights / tape etc). We really liked the ground level lanai and BBQ with spare propane. Chapeau to those managing this unit! Date of Stay: 12/19/17 to 12/30/17

Great location just across from good snorkeling and surfing. Condo in excellent shape and grounds are very well kept. Nice small pool with view of ocean and well maintained. The condo kitchen had all necessary cooking utensils and great dishwasher. The lanai has wonderful view of the beach so you can watch the surfers. The shopping center with grocery store, Long’s drugs,movie theater and restaurants 5 minutes away is very convenient. Close to coffee and chocolate farms. A quick 10 minute drive to downtown Kona and all of its shops and restaurants is also a great feature. The street below is not noisy at night. It made for a wonderful family Christmas vacation.

Excellent view, looks exactly like the photos. Location was very convenient, about 10 min from downtown Kona where all the shops and restaurants are. Date of Stay: 12/18/17 to 12/22/17

I really loved our stay at Waikoloa Fairways A310. It was a great location and the condo was quite beautiful. It was larger than I thought it would be and I loved the decor and art work around. The setting was lovely. - overlooking the (quiet) golf course (with turkeys and baby nenes around the pond and a view of the distant water). The kitchen had everything we needed and we did several meals there. The bbq outside was in a lovely setting with hot tub and pool. I really appreciated that it was a small complex. I recommend it and would stay there again. Thank you! Date of Stay: 12/13/17 to 12/19/17

Our family stayed 10 days at Heavens and it was the most relaxing, perfect, unbelievable vacation we have taken in a while.  We have been to the Oregon Coast, New York, Vegas and Alaska over the last 3 years and will rate this #1.  The pool and hot tub was the focal point for us because we all love the water and the sun.  Although the bar rates pretty high too.  The bedrooms were perfect for 10 of us.  We have 2 older kids who brought their fiances and the 2 separate rooms out back was perfect for them.  My wife and I of course stayed in the bigger master next to the pool and enjoyed post card sunsets every night.  Although the ocean was 3 miles away it seemed like it was right there.  We brought binoculars to look out at the cruise ships and other ocean views.  The convenient location was minutes from the beach and downtown.  We enjoyed thanksgiving around the large dining table and played games in the living room.  We had friendly Geckos visit us everyday while sitting out by the pool, FYI they love maraschino cherries.  I recommend this house to anyone and would be confidant they would do the same.  We plan to return as soon as we can.  Aloha from the Secls

Amazing view and just a beautiful place! We would love to stay here again. Date of Stay: 12/14/17 to 12/20/17

The house was perfect and David, our concierge, provided exemplary service! There were plenty of extras, i.e., towels and linens. The house was close to all the amenities and it's location made getting around easy. It was a great home to host younger kids as the pool and hot tub were a huge hit! I would highly recommend it to friends and family and we hope to return again in the future. The hot water in the master suite was a little tricky, but we figured it out after a few attempts.

Kona Bali Kai was the perfect spot to base our family of six for our first time to the Big Island. Not only was the condo clean and beautifully furnished, but was stocked with more than enough towels, linens, soaps and cleaning supplies, not to mention anything we needed in the kitchen. When we reported an issue with the washing machine it was quickly and professionally taken care of. Throughout the entire process from booking to checking out, Kona Coast Vacations was very pleasant to work with. I would not hesitate to book through your company the next time we visit Hawaii. Thank you so much for helping us to have the family vacation of a lifetime! Date of Stay: 12/13/17 to 12/20/17

Great condo, within walking distanceto downtown, clean and well maintained, kitchen was well equipped, beach towels, beach chairs and a cooler were great to have. Definitely would stay here again and recommend to family and friends. Bonus was we met some really nice folk here too. Date of Stay: 11/20/17 to 12/20/17

A very nice home in the perfect location for families with young children. The only minor complaint was the pool heater didn’t work but not a big problem. Date of Stay: 11/24/17 to 12/8/17

6 of us enjoyed this spacious home in a very quiet neighborhood in Kailua Kona. The view from the Lanai is fantastic and the home comes with full equipment for cooking, including a special coffee maker that brews excellent coffee! Date of Stay: 12/13/17 to 12/20/17

Our vacation was awesome. We had not been to the Big Island in many years and were surprised in the changes we found especially around the Kona area. Not a little "burg" anymore. The Kona Bay Estates 23 home was beautiful and so perfect for our family. We were NOT ready to leave. We explored beaches, the Volcano, green sand beach, black sand beach, Wiamia, Keck Observatory, Captain Cook's momument - we walked, hiked, kayaked, snorkeled and in general enjoyed our time at the house and nearby beach. We loved it! Thank you so much. Date of Stay: 12/13/17 to 12/20/17

Lovely condo with breathtaking views. Sit on the lanai and enjoy the sunset. You might even be lucky enough to see dolphins and whales while you are having dinner like we did. Exactly as pictured and described. Location was easy to find and we actually went by it the first time because it is so close to the Kona shops. For this unit, I would recommend parking at the front of the building in the outside parking because it is just a few steps to the unit so you can avoid the elevator. The kitchen is super well stocked if you chose to eat in. Lots of added touches like freezer beer cups, ice packs and tupperwear. Passed vacationers have also left oils, hot sauces and spices which made cooking easier. The unit has a dishwasher and washer/dryer which was a nice added bonus. We had an issue with a neighbour constantly smoking on the balcony so that was a bit annoying but when I called the rental company to complain they were extremely helpful. The unit was very clean and had shampoo and soap in the bathroom along with lots of towels and extra pillows. The outside box with beach essentials was extremely well stocked with new snorkel equipment, lots of chairs, umbrellas and a cooler. We were disappointed that the really nice white sand beaches are about 40 minutes North of this unit but that was our fault for not doing our research before the trip. Traffic was a nightmare because of the construction so it took about 90 minutes to drive home from Hapuna beach. The pool area was great though and there is a beach right next door but because of the dangerous surf we were not able to swim there. It was nice to watch the surfers from the pool area. A second pool key would be very helpful as you need it to get in and out of the pool area. Overall was very impressed with the unit. The building itself is a bit older but the unit has been upgraded and it obviously well taken care of. A nice added touch was David, the "Kona Concierge". He was great at providing tips for anything you want to do on the island. Although I booked our excursions myself it was a nice touch to be directly contacted by an individual since this unit is through a rental company. Don't hesitate to book this unit especially if you want easy access to the shops & resturants at Kona. Date of Stay: 12/12/17 to 12/15/17

We had the pleasure of spending two weeks at the lovely condo in Waikoloa Villas. The unit is spacious and well equipped for a long or short stay, the grounds are well manicured and with 2 pools on site it made for a wonderful trip. The unit was clean and comfortable with an amazing view from the lanai, can't wait to get back!! Date of Stay: 5/13/17 to 5/27/17

Stunning property all the bells. Pool is next door. Beach club is very nice. With such limited beach houses this is as close as it gets. Date of Stay: 12/12/17 to 12/19/17

In short we wont be looking for another place to rent on our next visit unless this one is unavailable....... and more likely try plan our trip around the dates available WE were a little nervous about renting this unit at first because there were no reviews.... i guess because there were no complaints the unit was very clean well located & well supplied The beds were all comfortable with no indentations we enjoyed the steady ocean breeze this time of the year..... no air condition required. Kona Coast Vacations was a dream too deal with...... our main interaction was over the email and they left us without a single question or concern on our arrival.... If there name is connected to a rental you are considering I would suggest you google there company & Chq out the reviews One of the best decisions of this trip was using the concierge that was included with this unit..... in our case his name was David and he went way beyond the call of duty to help make our trip memorial. one thing we discovered on this trip was the value of pre-booking...... we didn't have to waste time once we arrived on our holiday and we were able to book every event we wanted before they were sold out The complex has 4 or 5 barbecues that are in good condition and fed with natural gas so you will never run out. The secret is out.... these guys deserve a thumbs up. We had a great Visit.... if you say here you will too. Date of Stay: 12/7/17 to 12/13/17

Our stay was wonderful. I would recommend Kona Coast Vacations to all of our friends and family. Wonderful to work with!  The house was beautiful and Kona Coast Vacations made the trip very easy and welcoming. Thank you!  Date of Stay: 12/6/17 to 12/13/17

This house was excellent. There was nothing wrong with anything any time we needed anything they were very quick to get us anything we were missing or anything we needed help with. Very clean and very nice home. The pool was great as well as everything in the home. I have been to the Big Island 6 different times and this was the best place I have stayed by far. Date of Stay: 12/5/17 to 12/16/17

We had a fantastic time at Waikaloa Villa. I thought the property was actually a lot nicer than the pictures show. It was super clean, the loft space is gorgeous and this was definitely the best-stocked kitchen of the three places we stayed at on the island. We also appreciated having the boogy-boards there for our use. (We actually used one as a make-shift baby gate by sticking it between the rails of the first step to the upstairs loft). The place was super kid friendly and we felt very relaxed letting our one year old and 4 year old nephew have the run of the house and the lanai. The pool and hot tub were lovely and the BBQs were top notch for grilling local fish! Only drawback is that the location can be a bit windy but a short drive to some gorgeous beaches seems to take you quickly out of the wind tunnel. You can't beat this place for the price! Highly reccommend! Date of Stay: 11/25/17 to 11/28/17

I love The Big Island, and White Sands Village is in an ideal location. The units are very comfortable, reasonably priced and more than adequate for our needs. Date of Stay: 11/3/17 to 12/1/17

We loved our stay at Keauhou Resort 125!! The layout and amenities were perfect. The bed was absolutely wonderful for someone with a bad back. Honestly after looking at reviews for 50+ condos we went with this one because of the bed and I'm so glad we did. We did book a last min one night stay down in Volcano to allow us to enjoy that area of the island more and minimize our driving. I would recommend this condo to anyone who doesn't want to be on top of the resort downtown Kona area!! Date of Stay: 12/8/17 to 12/18/17

This was our first stay at the Kona Isle C32 and we were impressed with the complex overall. All was in order.. It's clean, comfortable and a well supplied unit. Nicely decorated with a good supply of kitchen necessities. There was a nice sitting area immediately behind the rocky beach with barbeques and tables near the pool. This place would be great for a couple to base out of for exploring the big island. Unit C32 is on the 3rd floor with no elevator. You get a designated parking spot which is great. Date of Stay: 11/20/17 to 12/12/17

The location and view are outstanding! Perfect view of sunset each night. Great communication the entire time. Upon arrival, the wifi didn't work and they had it fixed right away. The host recommended Cindy (Smart Chef Hawaii) to prepare meals for us and she was amazing! Definitely worth it if you're interested in private meals at the home. My wife and I had a very relaxing babymoon here. Highly recommend! Date of Stay: 12/2/17 to 12/9/17

Comfortable and affordable spot, close to Kailua-Kona. Great full ocean view, with tide pools and TONS of turtles. No a/c was a bigger issue than we expected for December. Also, the ocean is LOUD here, especially in the master bedroom. Date of Stay: 11/30/17 to 12/6/17

Fairway Villas is such a wonderful place, close to everything! beautiful, clean, friendly and so welcoming:) Hope to return again very soon! A+++++. Date of Stay: 11/26/17 to 12/8/17

Amazing for kids, fully stoked with beach toys, boogie boards and towels. Date of Stay: 11/30/17 to 12/11/17

Great condo and location. Walking distance to downtown shops, farmers market, and bay. Apartment has a wonderful layout with a nice lanai. The great thing about this building are the walls, made out of concrete, no noise from neighbors and you really don't feel like you are in a condo. Communication with Kona Coast Vacation's was easy and very responsive. Will stay again. Date of Stay: 12/9/17 to 12/12/17

We had a great time staying at the Alii Villas. Great view and location. Date of Stay: 11/30/17 to 12/12/17

We love the location, the unit was very clean , very well stocked. Would stay again without any hesitation. Quiet in early December before the winter guests arrive. Date of Stay: 12/2/17 to 12/9/17

We rented this beautiful condo for a family vacation and really enjoyed out stay. The unit is very well maintained and the property management were extremely responsive to our requests for service and information. The unit is very well equipped with all our kitchen and beach needs. I would recommend this rental as a wonderful vacation property for those looking for a Big Island vacation! Date of Stay: 12/3/17 to 12/9/17

This was our second visit to Kona but had the pleasure of brining 2 other couples with us that have never been to Kona or Hawaii for one couple. The views were spectacular. The house was very impressive. A lot of mountain climbing with the car but worth the trips. Last stay we were water front and I enjoyed this location better plus the privacy of our own pool and outside grill etc. Would have liked the air conditioner working for several of the says but overall very nice home. Date of Stay: 11/2717 to 12/2/17

This place is great! We went with a group of friends. The home was spacious and beautiful, the location is great, the view from the lanai is wonderful. There is a nice pool! I could go on and on. I recommend this home!Kona Coast Vacations was extremely helpful and hospitable.

This property was perfect for my 5 person family. Four of us love to snorkel, and one of the best snorkeling beaches on all of Hawaii Island is just down the driveway from the property. There are 3 units in this building. One larger top floor unit and two bottom floor units, one that faces the ocean and one that they call the "mountain side". We had the mountain side unit, and there was still a great view of the sea, the beach, and the sunsets. We just about lived on the lanai. We did a lot of cooking for ourselves, and the kitchen was well set up and well supplied with new equipment in perfect working order. Kona Coast Vacation was a great host. I would rent this property again in a heartbeat

Casa De Emdeko is the perfect location for a quiet and relaxing vacation. Clean and safe, close to town and the "sandy beach" area is the perfect place to enjoy sunsets. Date of Stay: 12/1 17 to 12/10/17

Our stay was pretty good overall. The condo rental was in a central location close to the Royal Kona which has wonderful lobby and pool area. We would spend each morning having coffee in lobby of the Royal Kona and watching the dolphins perform in the bay. In the evenings we would sit at poolside of the Royal Kona and watch the luau shows. Short walk to markets and restaurants. Condo was clean and in good shape and very well stocked with kitchen tools. Good laundry facilities nice large bed and good bathroom facilities. Very large balcony which we used as a dinner and breakfast area and good view of the ocean ships and boats.

We’ve stayed in this building before and would recommend it because of the walkability to restaurants, bars and shopping. This unit is on the third floor and close to the garage, should you choose to park there. The unit is well furnished and comfortable and the kitchen has every thing you could want—including a martini shaker. The lanai is fabulous for sunset viewing and cocktails. Would return. Date of Stay: 11/20/17 to 11/30/17

Everything was perfect and while the pictures are beautiful, they don't do it justice! The views are stunning!! David at Kona Coast Vacations was incredibly helpful and responded quickly to all emails/calls. Amazing customer service! Thank you! Date of Stay: 12/2/17 to 12/8/17

Wow. what a great place. couldn't have asked for more. the view was amazing. right on the water. the unit was clean and spacious and had all the things you would need for a great stay..from all the kitchen appliances, to beach towels, to masks/snorkels/boogie boards etc. The location is perfect. close to town, but on the edge enough where are aren't in the main strip noise and congestion. from the balcony we watched sea turtles and dolphins...the pool and hot tub are great. I'd stay here over and over when visiting Kona. The property managers were prompt and friendly, called to make sure everything was ok...and were available if we needed anything. Date of Stay: 11/29/17 to 12/4/17

Great place to stay...definitely water front! Date of Stay: 11/8/17 to 11/19/17

We had a wonderful time at Kona Reef A32. The unit was exactly as advertised. It was in very good condition and clean. Everything worked. The ocean front view was wonderful, we really enjoyed our time on the lanai. A bonus we didn't expect was the proximity to shopping and restaurants. In less than a mile walk there are probably 20 restaurants/bars and many more shops. So nice not to have to drive and find parking! Date of Stay: 11/10/17 to 11/19/17

Great value and great location – a short walk to restaurants, coffee shops and shopping. The condo was comfortable and much larger than I expected – two full-size bathrooms! It is located by a very busy street (during the day), but that didn't bother me since I'm from a large city. Staff is very attentive and available if needed

The apartment was very well kept and clean. Our favorite part was eating on the porch with a view of the ocean. It was a short drive to restaurants and stores so it was very well located. I would definetley reccomend staying here.

From the moment of first walking in and seeing a million dollar view, I knew I was in paradise. An easy 5 minute walk into town with no need to get into the car. The condo is equipped with everything you need including boogie boards, and snorkel equipment, beach chairs, and a larger washer and dryer than I have at home. I will be telling all of my friends and relatives, when they come to Kona, they need to rent this place, it's a must!

We had an awesome time at the Waikoloa Colony Villas 504. The directions to the unit were very precise and accurate. The unit is spacious and backs onto a golf course. Some things to know are the unit is in a gated community. We had some difficulty initially entering the code at the gate for entry. We arrived late at night and the lighting was very dim. The instructions said the gate code is key sign ######, where ###### is the numeric entry code. I did not realize that the key pad actually had a key at the lower right of the key pad which was the key sign. I only entered the numeric entry code, which initiated a phone call to an invalid number and the recovery from this entry was about a minute for each attempt. Someone eventually came along and let us in to the community with their code. In the daylight the following morning, I could see the 'key sign' on the gate key pad. One other item to note is that both bedrooms are upstairs in case you have lots of heavy luggage as we did. The unit has central air conditioning and is located about 30 minutes north of the airport. I would highly recommend this unit. Date of Stay: 11/14/17 to 11/21/17

The only bad thing that I can say about this stay is that we had to leave! The condo is beautiful, the amenities were wonderful, the location is fabulous and we are already planning our next stay in this condo.

Nice quiet location close to Kona town. Really clean and spacious for two people. The amenities were very helpful with cooking and getting our morning going with a nice pot of coffee. It really helped of having the options of having beach towels, boogy board, umbrella, cooler, etc. I found it very accommodating to us as guest. I find this condo absolutely beautiful! I really enjoyed my stay here!

Enjoyed staying at this listing. It was very spacious and perfectly located in Kailua-Kona. Communication with Kona Coast Vacations was seamless and all the instructions were included in one easy to read email. Would stay with Kona Coast Vacations again when visiting the Big Island. The listing was very clean and spacious. There was plenty of parking was on site.

The kitchen was stocked with all of the tools and appliances we needed to cook meals and the beds and furniture were very comfortable. The Lana‘i was incredible and we really enjoyed our time at the condo.

Our family of 8 spent Thanksgiving week at this amazing house and could not have had a better experience. This place is paradise - excellent location, quiet neighborhood, proximity to several beaches, fantastic pool/grilling area, amazing lanai with even better sunsets...we could go on forever. To top it all off, our hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful. You're not going to find a better rental or value in the area. We would most definitely stay here again should we return to Hawaii.

Great location, very clean, all amenities, grounds neat and kept in good condition. The entire process regarding reservations and other communication was professional and quick. I would certainly recommend this unit to my friends.

This was a beautiful condo to have as home base during our visit to the Big Island! The views are SPECTACULAR and are even more breathtaking in person than the pictures can do! The location was perfect- just a mile or so easy walk into a ‘downtown' area with restaurants and bars, shops, and beaches! Other points of interest were a good driving distance away (30-60 min), which was very convenient also. The condo premises was beautiful, well landscaped with great views of the water and a very close by beach access. We were briefly locked out and got an immediate response/ assistance from Kona Coast. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

The unit was in excellent condition as was all of the furniture and towels etc. Are only complaint was the unit had a great number of small almost nosee m type bugs. It did not bother us, but I can think of many of are freinds that would have been concderned. As prior Hawaii residents we learned to put up with the tiny Hawaiian insects. Date of Stay: 11/15/17 to 11/30/17

Aloha!  On behalf of the staff and management of Kona Coast Vacations, we very much appreciate you taking your valuable time to provide us with this very important positive feedback.   We believe the bugs that you were referring to were gnats – small seasonal creatures that unfortunately we can do nothing to prevent.  As you know, they can come right thru the screens but they are harmless.  We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay & hope that we can welcome you again.

Kona Coast Vacations

We had a really pleasant stay in this unit. The condo was lovely and clean and had everything one could need. Everything was exactly as advertised. The entire grounds are well kept and the pool is really nice. They even have a nice bbq area. Kona Coast Vacations were easy to work with. They were very responsive and helpful. We would definitely come back. Date of Stay: 11/11/17 to 11/16/17

Great location, great view...lovely place with great amenities. highly recommended. Date of Stay: 11/20/17 to 11/25/17

We arrived the day before Thanksgiving and checked out the Sunday after. This is a stunning condo. It's in the perfect spot for driving to Kona beaches, activities and adventures during the day, and for Ubering to Kona nightlife when the sun goes down. Plus - the condo is furnished with everything you'll need during your stay -- and you'll feel like a millionaire everytime you walk through the door. The lease and payment processes were easy and hassle free. Highly recommended. We'll be back the next time we're on the Big Island.

The condo is well equipped with beach equipment and kitchen supplies. Nice view from the balcony and well manicured shared grounds. Kona coast vacations company is very eager to help you make reservations and excursions. They send out multiple canned emails with updates and information. We didn't have any issues so I didn't have to follow through with anyone but it seemed like it would be easy if we had to reach someone. Date of Stay: 11/6/17 to 11/11/17

The directions to get to the condo were excellent and the efficient lockbox check-in system worked well. Our condo was clean and well equipped with anything we could ever need. When we did encounter a problem in our condo, the management was quick to respond. We would certainly recommend Kona Coast Vacations to our friends. Date of Stay: 11/8/17 to 11/18/17

We enjoyed our stay in Alii Villas, and the unit was as described. It's managed by a third party, Kona Coast Vacations, so they communicate directly with you. Pros: -Good location, the complex is about a 10 minute drive from downtown (although downtown Kona itself is walkable, it didn't seem like you could walk to downtown from surrounding areas. Alii Dr takes you right into downtown, but doesn't have a sidewalk or streetlights, so I don't recommend walking there) -Nice pool. Wasn't crowded, was pretty and had nice landscaping -Right on the coast. You can walk out onto the lava rocks from the property. -Spacious, clean, nicely furnished. Cons: -No A/C -Washing machine barely worked -bed in master bedroom was not very comfortable. Date of Stay: 11/14/17 to 11/19/17

Aloha!  On behalf of the staff and management of Kona Coast Vacations, we very much appreciate you taking your valuable time to provide us with this very important positive feedback.   The washing machine was repaired right after your visit, and we will inspect the bed.   On your next visit, please know that we are available if you need us.  We are happy to help!

 We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay &  hope that we can welcome you again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Sea Village 4303 condo stay. The view was spectacular. We had breakfast and lunch there everyday of our stay. We just couldn't get enough of the view. You can easily walk into town from the location. A good way to burn off those extra holiday calories. The condo came fully equipped with all that was needed. Coffee filters, salt, towels, etc etc. we will be staying here again that's for sure. Date of Stay: 11/14/17 to 11/22/17

Wonderful single bedroom unit in a nice complex. Great bed, good washroom, good living room & kitchen and wonderful porch. Unit has a great sunset viewing area, saltwater pool, regular pool and BBQ / eating area. Highly recommend this unit. Date of Stay: 11/17/17 to 11/20/17

Of all the properties we have rented through VRBO and AIRB&B, this is the best one. It doesn't feel like a rental; it feels like we are staying in someone's gracious home. It is decorated beautifully with art pieces in most rooms. The kitchen is fully stocked, not just a small amount of dishes, utensils and pans. The view is beautiful, so great to have such a clear view of the ocean. And the pool is fantastic. Our grandchildren, two and four, live close by and loved the pool, plenty of room to play. Beautiful setting and private yard. And the pool area is separated from the main yard and lanai by an iron fence and gate. Very safe for kids. We hope to return again soon, and will plan our trip around availability of this house. Date of Stay: 11/13/17 to 11/27/17

Location - Half way between north Kohala where we scuba dive and Kona. A couple of miles from Queen’s and King’s Marketplace and Hapuna Beach = Perfect. Home - Excellent house. Loved the layout. Furniture was great. WIFI was fast. Cable TV was good. Appliances were excellent. Small appliances were all there including rice cooker. Everything you could possibly need was available. Nice having inside laundry room with new washer/dryer. Loved the large covered patio in backyard with great view of ocean and mountains. Landscaping was beautiful Everything was clean and well-maintained. Nothing was missing. Having a garage was very nice. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. We have rented a home near Waimea for 3 years. That home was nice - this one beat it by a lot. We are going to Maui next November; however, my adult son and I will be back to the Big Island and hope to rent this home again. Date of Stay: 11/12/17 to 11/22/17

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this property and the beautiful views are hard to beat. We spent most of our time outside on the lanai. The pool here was large for a property with only 6 units and well maintained. The negatives were that there was no hot water from the solar heating even though it was sunny the 3 days we stayed here. There is a booster heater but that only takes the chill off and gives you luke warm water. The other point is that it can be very noisy here as you can hear everything from other units and the road. Date of Stay: 11/21/17 to 11/24/17

Aloha! On behalf of the staff and management of Kona Coast Vacations, we very much appreciate you taking your valuable time to provide us with this very important positive feedback. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it’s apparent in this case that we fell short when it came to your comfort in one of our rooms. We have contacted the property owner in regards to the solar, and he has been assured by the complex management that this issue has been taken care of. We have not received any additional guest complaints, and thank you for bringing this to our attention. On your next visit, please know that we are available if you need us - we are happy to help! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay & hope that we can welcome you again.
Mahalo Kona Coast Vacations

Heavens was perfect in every way!!! Wish we could have stayed longer! We rented the home to share with our friends and family for our wedding during the week. It pretty much had everything we needed for our stay, including some beach chairs & towels, a few snorkel gear items and even different sizes of water shoes! Didn't realize until the last day that there was actually avocado trees on the property! Could've had REAL LOCAL avos as opposed to the ones we bought at the grocery store. The ONLY thing we noticed that was wrong with the place was apparently the renters before us had a bit of a spaghetti mishap in the kitchen (there was sauce on the ceiling that was missed by the cleaners). The house was absolutely beautiful and we will more than likely be back! The only thing that would keep us from renting Heavens again would be the need for more sleeping arrangements, as I'm sure next time around we will have more guests to share with!!!! Mahalo for making our wedding week so amazing by sharing your beautiful home!!! Date of Stay: 11/14/17 to 11/19/17

We enjoyed our stay in this well appointed,clean and updated unit ... Customer service was very good ....we enjoyed the complex... Would stay again. Date of Stay: 11/12/17 to 11/21/17

his is the second year in a row we stayed here at #303 for Thanksgiving and just loved we would like to make it an annual thing, We also liked the changes that was made with the new painting, the curtains in the masterroom , and putting two beds in the other room . We hope to stay here again when coming to the Waikaloa to visit our ohana in Waikaloa and Kamuela. THANKS AGAIN !! The KING ohana. Date of Stay: 11/22/17 to 11/26/17

Nice and clean suite. Very close to all amenities. Price was reasonable! Date of Stay: 11/16/17 to 11/21/17

Once you get through the booking process, great communication via email and text...helpful local advice from our concierge. My family really enjoyed our stay

We had a wonderful week-long family reunion at 68-3555 Awamoa Place with our two grown children, their spouses and infants. This immaculate, newly decorated home accommodated us beautifully. It has 3 very private bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a large and open, well-furnished and equipped, up-scale kitchen, dining and living room area. Professional landscaping with a variety of flowering tropical plants surround the home and provided us complete privacy when outside on the two lanais or when sitting in the backyard. Located just a 10 minute drive from the beaches, the ocean could be seen from one lanai. In addition to nice linens, bedding and towels, there were lofty beach towels, 6 good beach chairs and beach umbrellas. The new washer and dryer in the garage were much appreciated as was the generous off-street parking for our three vehicles. A drawer full of books and brochures gave us lots of ideas and information for adventures and trips from this great, centrally located 'home base.'

Very nice and clean property , close to beach. We were party of 5 adults for 4 nights. We liked it. Will highly recommend it.

We loved the Ailina house. It couldn't have been more perfect for our group of 4 adults and a 5 year old. The fans kept the house cool and the beds were comfortable. There was loads of space to relax and get away from each other if we needed to. We loved having all the doors open downstairs with that lovely Hawaiian breeze blowing through the house. We were able to use the sound bar with bluetooth - you just have to download a Yamaha app for it and the sound was great. Best days spent floating in the pool, watching the sunset, and having a BBQ. I couldn't recommend Kona Coast Vacations more highly. They were helpful and attentive and easy to communicate with. A truly beautiful house in a magical location. I wish I was back there now!

The pictures for this rental do not come close to doing this place justice. It was beautiful, well stocked, and fit our party comfortably. Communication was fantastic, and they even let us check out an hour later. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would!Amazing. Simply amazing.The communication was outstanding and effortless.The grounds are immaculate. They are so well kept.We loved the peace and quiet of the condo. We really appreciated that!The actual condo is perfect. Comfortable, quiet and fully stocked. It has every single thing we needed.Now.... The amazing sunsets from the lanai were the highlight of this condo!! SPECTACULAR!!!! I think I may have over 200 pictures on my phone of the sunsets from the lanai. Funny story.... There was an open house here at one of the condos. We are actually looking into buying one! We just loved the complex and how will it was kept, the location... Wow!

This condo is better than the pictures! We enjoyed the layout (we are looking for a lot in Oregon to built a similar place now). The grounds are beautifully maintained, the area quiet and convenient to many different things! Our favorite thing to do is snorkel and we are pretty low key so we shopped at Island Gourmet and had picnics. Our last night we tried the Aloha Wine Bar in Island Gourmet and had both a fantastic meal and good choices of drinks. Plus it was reasonable. Date of Stay: 11/12/17 to 11/19/17

Very good location with this price range. Very clean suite! We really had a good experience, would love to go back again.

The unit was very clean, in good condition, and well equipped. We enjoyed many hours on the lanai. This is a great ocean front location. When we booked we didn't realize how close it was to Kona with all that has to offer. There must be 20 restaurants and bars with a mile, not to mention the shops and services. And it was such a pleasant walk that we did it most days! I would definitely come again!

Loved this property. Very comfortable and clean and so nicely furnished. Great view overlooking the golf course and views to the ocean. AC would have been nice, but there were lots of fans to stir up the air. One draw back was that this unit is on the third floor and there is no elevator, so hauling 50 lb. luggage up the stairs was quite challenging. Not recommended for elderly people. We would surely rent this unit again in a heartbeat!

My wife and I stayed here on our honeymoon for eight days. The place is very spacious, clean and inviting. It comes with all the essentials for your stay. Relax at the pool, enjoy the view from the patio or explore the nearby restaurants and beaches. We found it as a great jumping off point for all our island adventures and highly recommend it for anyone wanting to experience the "Big Island". Date of Stay: 10/1/17 to 10/9/17

Great condo for a family with a lot of amenities for the beach: chairs, umbrella and coolers. The only small negative was the water fountain noise from the property next door was taking away from the ocean waves noise a little

The condo was about 1 mile from downtown Kona, which was perfect for us; a long walk or short drive to nearby restaurants and shops. The Alii Villas were clean and quiet enough that we could hear the ocean from our room at all times. Sitting at the Lanai was delightful.

This was a great rental. Clean, spacious condo. Kitchen supplies were well stocked. Beautiful view off the lanai. Coded entry, so no worries about keeping up with keys. Kyle, who seems to have multiple jobs, including groundskeeper, and contact person, was very helpful and pleasant. Be aware there is one parking space per unit. Also, request your wifi access code in advance, so there is no issue if you arrive after hours. I would definitely recommend this condo.

Spent a great week in this 1 bedroom ground level oceanfront unit. Fabulous location on the ocean and easy walking access to all the shops & restaurants along the Kona waterfront. Unit was clean, modern, well maintained and nicely decorated. Great AC in bedroom and living room. First evening on arrival, we could not get the large sliding patio door open. Kona Coast promptly sent out a service man who opened it with a heavy pull and lubed up the track as the door was stuck in grooves that had been worn in the frame over time. Being ocean front these large doors also get a little sticky over time. Worked fine for the rest of our stay. The only suggestion I would leave is to replace or discard the 2 folding portable beach chairs as they are quite threadbare and don't actually work anymore. We loved this unit and location of the Kona Reef and will be back! Date of Stay: 11/11/17 to 11/18/17

We stayed in C32 back in April and we were happy to rent the same unit again. It's clean, comfortable and a well supplied unit. Nicely decorated with a good supply of kitchen necessities. The living room TV could be bigger and the fold out sofa bed is beginning to show some age but we don't go to Kona to stay on the couch watching tv. Kona Isle is a wonderful complex in a great location. Date of Stay: 10/21/17 to 11/1/17

The rental property was well kept and in a perfect location. The daily exploration of the rocks for sea life and visits of the great sea turtle was an added treat for all. we did not have to go very far for white sandy beaches to swim, and then a very close beach provided snorkeling adventures.

We love Hawaii and we had a great time in Kailua-Kona...lots to do! The condo was nice. The surf out front was really good all week- The noise can get loud at night from cars driving by and partyers at the park directly next door- and FYI NO ALCOHOL allowed in the pool...although everyone just pours it in a cup and enjoys the warm pool and jacuzzi- but watch out for Female Hawaiian Paul Blart Rent-A-Cop patrolling 24-7- I guess you can just go across the street to the liquor store and sit on the beach and drink with the rest of the town...

The condo was way beyond my expectations. It had everything you could ask for including beach towels, and water toys. I would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful view. Kitchen is very large with all your kitchen needs.
The beach is great for surfacing, has a small beach and great for viewing turtle's. The beds could use a little updating

When we walked into the condo we were surprised to see it was actually nicer than the pictures. The condo was nicely stocked with cooking utensils, towels, beach items and really nice quality toiletries for our initial use. The location was perfect being just far enough away from a lot of the traffic and heavier tourism. We did not have air conditioning which we at first thought was going to be a problem but as soon as we opened the windows and door from the lanai things cooled off instantly from the breeze. There were turtles outside every day. The grounds were well maintained, the pool was being worked on, but there was a shallow area protected by some rocks right out in front that was good for wading if needed. Our condo did not have anyone under us which was nice after hearing some slight sounds from someone that was above us. Not that we made noise but we could tell when they moved a chair or dropped something, but by no means an issue from the upper condo. The people that worked at Kona Bali Kai were very nice and helpful even though we did not book through them but through Kona Coast. It was nice having a concierge even though we did not have an opportunity to solicit his help. I would definitely stay at this condo again and would use Kona Coast, it felt much safer booking through them vs some of the online web sites.

We found the condo to be even better than described. It is stocked with anything and everything you may need. The view is even better than the pictures. The rental manager responded very quickly to a need, and the on-site property manager was also very friendly and helpful. If we return to the Big Island, we will inquire about staying here again.

This was the second time we stayed in this condo & would stay again. It's spacious and the view is awesome- watching surfers in the morning and sunsets in the evening from the lanai. Clean & well equipped condo.

I think this is fifth or sixth time staying in CdE 328 and never gets old. Very comfortable and relaxing. We plan on doing it again!! Date of Stay: 11/1/17 to 11/15/17

We stayed at this house for four weeks as part of our 40th Anniversary celebration. We had family come and stay with us at different times and visited other family who live on Hawai'i. It was wonderful to explore the Big Island at our leisure and to not have to rush to do this and that. The house comes exactly as described on the website. It was extremely clean and well kept up. There were a few minor issues that arose over time, but Kona Coast was always eager and quick to address the situation. Every contact we had with Kona Coast staff was excellent. Except for the weekday traffic on the Queen K. Hwy between the airport and Holualoa, we enjoyed everywhere we went on the island. We particularly liked the beauty of, and everything we did on the Kohala Peninsula. Don't miss the Pololu Valley Lookout or the drive on Hwy 250 between Hawi and Waimea...gorgeous. We also very much enjoyed the east side of the island from South Point, to Na'alehu, to Punalu'u Beach, to the Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. We enjoyed Lava Lava Beach Club in Waikoloa, Punalu"u Bakery in Na'alehu, Kings View Cafe in Kapa'au, Kona Brewery Pub in Kailua, and Sam Choy's and Amici's in Keauhou. In the end though, one the best memories will be all the varied and beautiful sunsets we enjoyed from the lanai of Eono. Date of Stay: 10/17/17 to 11/14/17

Beautiful, modern space with great ocean views. The space was very clean, comfy beds, and fully stocked kitchen. Close to shopping, restaurants, and beaches. We will definitely be booking our next Kona trip at the same spot! Date of Stay: 11/5/17 to 11/11/17

In general the condo was well equipped and very quiet/clean. Kitchen had lots of items and a good sized fridge and some cooler ice blocks. There is a large TV WIFI signal and speed was perfectly fine for browsing and was reliable. Very large walk in closet in the bedroom Huge amount of extra towels and bedding if needed plus several beach towels. Nice large balcony that gets the sun in the morning – perfect for breakfast time. Parking space is directly next to and in front of the condo Condo complex grounds were amazingly clean and very well maintained Note that it is a brisk 20 minute walk to the waterfront bar/restaurant area, otherwise lots of taxi/uber is available for about $7 The things we missed when compared to other condos we have rented were some basic items such as salt/pepper/spices and small packet of coffee/tea (we bought some for our stay and left it for the next guest). Condo has some simple beach items instead of the "standard" tommy Bahama chairs and umbrella that we had everywhere else but it still works. The small push in umbrella needs a lot more work on most beaches and as a result the top is damaged where someone has tried to hammer it into the ground. There is also a small playmate igloo cooler but it’s the very small 6 pack cooler so don’t expect to fit too much in We were happy with the condo and would have no hesitation to rent the same condo again.

The house was like on the pictures, even better. We will definitely come back! Date of Stay: 11/3/17 to 11/8/17

Great place, amazing view and very very well equipped with absolutely anything you could ask for, would definitely stay in again, thanks a lot. Date of Stay: 10/30/17 to 11/8/17

We loved the Casa De Emdeko. The property is right on the ocean, with awesome sunset views and two large pools. The atmosphere and other residents were nice and relaxed. The unit was perfectly equipped and clean. We also found the location to be very good. Walking distance to Kona and restaurants. Very good value for money! Date of Stay: 11/5/17 to 11/15/17

Unit has everything you need as advertised. Large relaxing lanai with ocean view.

The condo was exactly as described and had everything we needed with very comfortable furniture and a well equipped kitchen. The snorkeling and beach gear was a bonus. The pool is one of the best I have seen and the communal BBQ area was very clean and well laid out. The ocean view from the lanai was brilliant. I cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Great Patio!!

Excellent!!!

Hello,we had a great time at Alii Villas. Housing and residence are very very well maintained. The staff is very nice and we had a very good time, the rental agency staff is very helpful and responds quickly to questions.cordiallyAlexander Klein

excellent

The condo was a pleasant surprise -- stocked with basic cooking supplies, boogie boards and other items not expected. It was well organized, clean and the view was enough to see the sunset every night. The lanai is sweet. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom cooler than the rest of the condo due to its north facing orientation. I would recommend this condo to anyone.

We had a great stay at Akoa Place, being there for 10 days. The house was unbelievable and everything was working properly. The pool was very clean as was everything...And what a view!!!! The manager was more than hospitable and welcoming. Magnificent place, well situated, quiet and…wonderful…We should have stayed longer. Date of Stay: 10/31/17 to 11/10/17

my wife and i had very wonderful time. Which we had never experienced before. Date of Stay: 8/22/17 to 10/2/17

Great house in a lovely gated community, neighbors are friendly and kona bay drive is kept to a high standard. The house itself has everything you could ask for even down to the snorkeling equipment. It's clean well stocked and quiet, a little bit of paradise within easy walking distance of Kailua Bay (about 10-15 minutes walk). For us the only down side was the garden could be assessed from the playing fields behind, which kind of defeated the gated access scenario, but none the less it was great to watch the American football training that was held there. We stayed for ironman world championships as my husband was taking part and the area had lots of lovely places to eat out if you want a break from cooking. A car is a must if you want to see the island and give the night mantaray a go, and the dolfin swim to. Would we stay again? Yes definitely but would like to see the garden fenced, then I think you would have piece of mind that's it's really only accessible via the main gate which has guards on at all times. Hopefully we will be back in the next couple of years for the same event, thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.

The views from the back lanai were just amazing; I had not taken a vacation in many years and this house, and Island of Kona sure let me know what I had been missing. The house is beautiful with a wonderful open concept kitchen, living area, and dining area. We only had one other couple but the house could have easily handled a much larger group. The master bedroom had a tremendous 180 degree view of the ocean and included a large walk in closet along with a beautiful on suite bathroom. The house also came equipped with a wonderful BBQ which we made use of several times. We will definitely be coming back here. Date of Stay: 10/27/17 to 11/5/17

The unit was well equipped and the renovation upgrades were obvious and much appreciated. The patio is well located to take in the lush gardens and pools in both directions, with the sound of birds providing the relaxing ambience one needs while on vacation. The supply of essential staples was complete and appreciated - a wonderful unit!

Could not have imagined a better place to stay for out trip to Kailua-Kona. As close to the ocean as you can get - listen to waves crashing on the shore! The amazing views at all hours - sunsets, moonsets; each more spectacular than the one before. Conveniently located just outside of town with a small marketplace across the street with about 20 vendors. We were provided with everything we needed - towels, beach towels, soaps, hairdryer, etc. Very clean and updated unit. Living space is like open air living! Exceeded all expectations - was nervous booking online but could not have worked out better. Would not stay anywhere else!

This beautiful home is perfectly located. Spectacular views, close to activities, restaurants and shopping. Kona Coast Vacations were very thoughtful, thorough and helpful.

The unit is a little older, but has everything you need. Full kitchen, beach towels, picnic cooler, hair dryer, lounge chairs, extra bedding. We saw turtles right on the beach in front of the unit. Really fun to watch the surfers too. The volcano is a must. It's a drive, but well worth it. Go after dark for the best views of lava in the crater. Kona Coast rentals were great to work with too. We changed our check-in - check-out date and they were great. After we were there, we added one day and again great to work with. Date of Stay: 10/22/17 to 10/26/17

Excellent!

This is a great condominium home for your Kona vacation. The home is very well appointed with comfy beds, a well equipped kitchen, awesome layout and a great view. The location is also very nice with great access to a great grocery store and walking distance to nice restaurants and bars for happy hour. Kona CC is a nice golf course and the clubhouse is only a few blocks away. The pool (1 of 3) is right around the corner from the home and was never over crowded. The residents were friendly and welcoming and both Kona Coast Vacations and Country Club Villas on-site manager were always helpful, if needed. We would return in a heartbeat! Dates of Stay: 10/24/17 to 11/2/17

The location is perfect for walking into town and for driving to the sites. The condo was a great size and had all the necessary supplies. The grounds were very well kept & the view awesome! Date of Stay: 10/7/17 to 10/19/17

Wonderful! While the weather wasn't the best in the beginning and the surf was high the condo was great and we had a wonderful trip.

Definitely the best place to spend your vacation!!!

This place was exactly as presented, the view was beautiful and the crashing waves were so therapeutic...I only wish the bed was a little better. I dealt with David and he was a great help.

Myself and 4 friends stayed for two weeks. This was the second time we have enjoyed this Condo. It has been a wonderful place to stay.. The homeowners have done a lot of up grades making it even better. I can't think of anything they have left out. Fully equipped kitchen, plenty of linen, Super comfortable beds, A new L shaped couch able to accommodate many! Lovely Lanai to enjoy the view in the early morning and evening sunsets. Just all around great place to stay! Close to most anything you might want to do. PS water toys, beach chairs, towels provided!! I will come again and again!!!

Outstanding! Highly recommend. Although we had some bug issues, the management team quickly responded to our needs. Very clean, updated and convenient location.

This place was amazing. Located right next to the pool and close to everything we could want to do. Pictures and description don’t do this place justice, it was perfect for our family and we can’t wait to get back!

Unit was well appointed, very clean. Had everything you would need for a vacation stay. Loved the beach club Kona coast property mgt was most accommodating with getting us into property a few days earlier than scheduled and for follow thru with checking up on anything we might need. Dates of Stay: 10/21/17 to 10/18/17.

The building of this vacation rental, also shown on the picture on the score card of Waikoloa Village GC as the best scene of this area (may be), is very solid, and we cannot hear any noise of the upper floor. On the other hand you may have to close ventiration windows of bed rooms at the night time, since Nene (Hawaiian goose) living in the golf course sometimes sings late at night. Security is very good, since there is a rocked gate at the territory entrance, and that car number has to be informed to the onsite manager upon the arrival. Over all, it it very good vacation rental. P.S. It is sad that "Waikoloa Fairways" (where this unit is located) and "The Fairway Villas" at the Waikoloa Beach resort area are often regarded as the same, though those two are different entirely.

Very good and quite location and really nice inside. It has everything as promised in the add and is in some cases even better than in the pictures. Only small downside is that you have to be used to the temperature. No aircon but a lot of ceiling vans keep it relative cool. We can only recommend the place! Date of Stay: 10/6/17 to 10/21/17

Our family just spent 12 days at this property and it was wonderful!There was plenty of space and storage for everyone. The beds were very comfortable.The kitchen was fully stocked and then some! Lots of dishes and glasses, serving trays, bowls, and all of the expected small appliances, but also had a crock pot and rice cooker, hand mixer, and tea kettle- we used them all!!The home owners have provided coolers and ice packs which were awesome for taking to the beach or for picnics. There were two boogie boards and lawn chairs to take to the beach and these were very much enjoyed and appreciated by our family.We loved our stay here and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again or to recommend it to family and friends.

We just loved this property! It was well appointed,clean and perfectly located. The salt water water pool was wonderful. At high tide the waves would break over the rocks and make you feel like you were in the ocean. We will stay here again. We did have a issue with sand clogging up the kitchen faucet and the shower but the property manager took care of it quickly. Date of Stay: 9/26/17 to 10/5/17

Unbelievable property. The pool is amazing! There is no AC but do not let that deter you. They have great fans, both ceiling and portable that keep you cool throughout the night. The rooms are all spacious. Very private property. Honestly the best rental house I have ever stayed in.

Condo looked just like the photos. Beautiful ocean view. Loved the balconies. Very clean. The pool area was amazing with unbelievable views of the sunset. The Kona Coast Vacations group was very helpful and available as we needed

Great place to call home for a week on Hawaii. The family had a great time. The property was everything we hoped for. Perfect place to relax and close enough to the beach to be there within minutes. We had plans to visit the other side of the island a few days during our stay but the property and the proximity to awesome beaches kept us on the Kona side of the island most of the week. Love the property and Kona Coast was great to work with. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful place to stay on the Kona side of the island

Great location. Great complex. Great people to work with. Such a good place to relax and a perfect spot to run or walk. The condo was very big and clean with all the amenities of home.

Great place to stay, awesome communication and perfect for my first Kona trip!

Wonderful time at this great condo! Very clean, quiet,fantastic A/C. Just show up and roll up to the water or just sit on the balcony and watch the sunset with a bottle of wine. Views are amazing - saw Spinner dolphins first hour there. Salt water pool along the ocean is second to none-just lounge and listen to the ocean waves- nice sand area with lots of recliners to catch the rays in private. Many grills poolside to cook yourself under the stars. Wife and I picked the location right in the middle between our two favorite locations in Kona - 1) Magic Sand Beach- fantastic boggy boarding! Please be careful surf can really get nasty - never turn your back to the ocean or on the little ones! 2) The other favorite is Huggos Restaurant...reserve an Oceanside table 30m before sunset and enjoy the light show! Overall the complex was very very nice- quiet and relaxing. Not sure if it would be convienent for more than 2 at the condo as the living room was in the open kitchen. The teams responsiveness was instant and caring! Thank you for the wonderful

This is a beautiful spacious apartment right on the water. The kitchen is fully equipped and there are plenty of towels. Beautiful balcony to watch the sunsets from

The place was great money for value. I will surely come back to stay here and will also recommend others about this place

A really nice place in very good condition. AC works good in bedrooms and big sealing fans. Nice terrace with view over the golf course and the ocean.

The apartment is great, with a beautiful view, and well localized. It has all utilities that you may need and a very well equipped kitchen. They also have several guides to the island.Kona Coast Vacations provided a very good description of how to reach the apartment, and was also very fast to answer my questions.

This condo was very well presented, it had everything we needed and more. We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend it.

Our recent stay at this apartment was great. The check in process was easy and the apartment was as expected. The apartment was clean and as described. The complex was tidy and well managed. The location was great.

We liked the apartment, it's in a great location with a fully equipped kitchen. Fold out bed is quite comfortable as well. No Air con is the only pitfall, but the apartment air flow is quite nice with the doors open. Dates of Stay: 9/29/17 to 10/15/17

Very good place to live, we have everything we need in the apartment. It is next to a golf course, you have a good view seating on balcony. There is a good KTA super market in working distance( 2 mins drive), you get anything you want from it, including good California wines. Worth to be recommended.

This was our first time staying at this unit and it won't be our last. The condo was in fantastic shape and had all the amenities that we needed. The beds were comfy and most importantly, everything was very clean (from the unit to the linens) and we couldn't have asked for more. It's very close to the pool which is great, and the ability to access the beach club was amazing. The beach club especially was a huge hit with our child, who is young and still getting used to the ocean. The snorkling was great there too, since the waters are so calm. We had a great trip and we're looking forward to coming back again soon.

Fabulous stay at clean, well equipped and beautifully decorated condo. Great location

We would love to return to Mauna Lani! Everything about our time there was wonderful, a "time out of time." We were there to celebrate a wedding but we also celebrated friendships and family in beautifully appointed houses. And so grand to be out of "Trumpland" for a bit of a respite.

Outstanding! Highly recommend. Although we had some bug issues, the management team quickly responded to our needs. Very clean, updated and convenient location.

The rental was very clean and it was all inside we needed. It was very comfortable. The Pool and the view is very nice and very clean too. Because of the security we felt very safe. Our appartement was very big. The Communication was very good and we got an answer quickly. The Check in and Check out was very comfortable.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The condo was extremely clean, amenities were very nice, wifi connection was great as some of us worked a little bit while here and overall the condo was perfect for our needs. Such a pretty place to stay as depicted in the pictures. Pool and complex were very clean! Communication prior to coming, instructions from the airport as well as instructions for the condo where very detailed. The location is good for Waikoloa Village. Many gorgeous beaches nearby. Again, we would stay with Kona Coast again without question. In fact we are already talking about our next trip! Best Airbnb experience so far! Date of Stay: 10/7/17 to 10/14/17

Fantastic accommodation and facilities. Clean and tidy apartment with cooking facilities for our family. Close to the ironman action. Great pool and stunning views. Will definitely stay again.

We would just like to say thank you for a wonderful stay at All'i Villas. We have checked out and wanted to say how much we enjoyed our time in Kona and especially our accommodation at Ali'i Villas. If we come back to the Island we will definitely stay again.

Just a quick note to tell you guys I had a great time there at the House. Everything worked fine and the only minor issue that I had, David took care of it right away!!! Great guy!!! The House is beautiful, clean, all the appliances are working, the linen and towels were clean!!! This is my 4th home rental in Kona and by far was the BEST!!! Keep up the good work and service!!

Very nice place to stay. Clean, spacious, with everything ready. One of the best places ever experienced. Golf view, quiet and cool. Would like to come again in future

The condo was very nice. It had everything you could ever need. Clean, great location and beautiful view. Perfect distance for all amenities. Inside newly updated. Would love ceiling fan in extra bedroom. Beds were fine but pillow tops would be a bonus. This condo was comfortable and fit all our needs. AC was great!! Dates of Stay: 9/27/17 to 10/6/17

We enjoyed our stay at this unit it was clean and relaxing. We've stayed at different places on the Big Island and this was the best place we've been to. We'd come back again! They had snorkel gear, chairs, coolers which we used. It was unusually winding at the beach, so it would have been nice to have had boogie boards to use. We loved the fact that there was a gas grill on the lanai, so we cooked our dinners a few evenings and enjoyed the view. The minor things we noticed was the AC worked well upstairs (and we slept comfortably), but the downstairs was always warmer. Also most of the cable channels didn't work, so we ended up watching shows from our laptop.  Date of Stay: 10/8/17 to 10/10/17

Great condo with everything you need.Overall very relaxing stay. Date of Stay: 9/9/17 to 10/1/17

This was my families third time staying at this lovely relaxing oceanfront spotlessly clean and comfortable home from home ( and I never stay anywhere twice!).The beds are fabulous,the kitchen is well equipped and spacious for the 4 of us.With ocean front,security,spotless and spacious grounds,elevator and peaceful people.Could not fault the booking or place and we will be back!! Dates of Stay: 9/9/17 to 9/12/17

The condo was amazing. We would have liked if there was a cooler available for our use and more towels so we didn't have to wash during the week. Otherwise it was great! Date of Stay: 7/22/17 to 7/29/17

The location is perfect. Right on water and right next to a pretty good beach. A better beach is within walking distance just south. A short drive south is one of the best snorkel beaches. This condo has everything you need. Comfortable rooms, large kitchen sweet view right from the living room and balcony. Date of Stay: 9/30/17 to 10/4/17

We loved the condo! It was so spacious and homey that we almost didn't want to leave because it was so nice to just relax around the house! We highly recommend staying here when you visit Kona, it was very easy to reserve the room, the owners provided exceptional service and the location was perfect! We enjoyed the helicopter tour over the volcano and night snorkeling with the Manta Rays!

We loved our stay here! Casa de Emdeko is conveniently located and very quiet. Our condo was decorated nicely and well stocked. The property was very well maintained, beautiful grounds and 2 pools. We were close to town so that it was easy to go to dinner or the stores. We were within a 30 minute drive to some spectacular snorkeling beaches, 2 Step was our favorite. Date of Stay: 9/19/17 to 9/23/17

Great place to stay. Everything went smoothly and we would definitely use Kona Coast Vacations in the future.

We liked being 1/2 way between Kailua and the beach at Kahaluu Park for snorkeling! It's the best snorkeling beach in the Kailua area in our opinion. Well laid out unit with lots of room. Great for 2 couples or a family. Would stay here again for sure!

Great unit facing the beautiful sea and sunset in Kailua-Kona, snorkel beach next door and nice pool or grassy ocean-front lawn for options. Loved watching the body boarders, outriggers, parasails, and sea turtles. Walk to dinner at Huggos or a little further into the main tourist area. Walk or jog the other way for a nice exercise. Rental company great to work with. Top floor so there are stairs. Date of Stay: 9/26/17 to 10/1/17

Really close to town, the Lanai is to die for. Date of Stay: 9/25/17 to 9/30/17

We highly recommend Kona Coast Vacations. Our house was perfect! Just as pictured! It was beautiful, clean and welcoming and served as our home away from home during our stay on Big Island. Everyone we dealt with through Kona Coast Vacations was professional and pleasant. David with Kona Concierge was a huge help to us with planning day trips as well as organizing all of our arrangements for us. He also gave us recommendations on sights, beaches, restaurants, local spots, and general things to do while visiting. He was also prompt with following up on emails and phone calls and was always pleasant to interact with. The house was not far from the downtown area, and was in a secure, quiet gated community. It included WiFi, a welcome gift basket with local treats, and AC, among other amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would use Kona Coast Vacation again, given the opportunity! Date of Stay: 9/16/17 to 9/21/17

Kona Coast was fantastic to work with! Date of Stay: 9/18/17 to 9/23/17

Our experience was wonderful! The house was spotless and very well stocked. There were 7 adults that stayed here and nobody felt like we were tripping over one another. Plenty of space! My husband and I were here with our adult children and their friends, and the pool and outdoor area were a popular spot at nights for swimming and playing cards around the outside table. Communications with Kona Coast exceeded my expectations and everyone was so helpful and friendly. We would rent from them again in a heartbeat!

Loved the view from the lanai, got to watch the green flash one evening:) Beautiful sunsets, get to see turtles on the beach below as well! Very clean place, all the amenities you need and excellent communication with the host when needed. Plus Da Poke Shack is in the same complex a great spot for a bite to eat! Love the condo and the location:) Date of Stay: 9/15/17 to 9/23/17

The Ailina House was very nice, however, do note that there is not any AC in the house, and some nights you will be quite hot. There are plenty of ceiling fans and a handful of portable fans sitting around, which came into great use. All the rooms are nice, especially the master suite, although the master suite does not have a door to separate the bedroom from the bathroom, so noises can travel throughout.
Getting in the house was easy with the provided codes and there was a garage door opener waiting for us on the welcome packet, making getting in after that much easier, only one code to memorize, instead of garage and door codes. The pool was larger than expected, which was a very nice surprise. There is plenty of seating outside under the lanai, and the lanai even has screens you can let down to block direct sun from hitting you. The views from the master and the patio are indeed beautiful, and if you happen to be at the house during the sunset, you will not be disappointed. The house did have the basic essentials you need, as well as, spices, coffee grinder, and beach towels. Maybe you will get lucky and the guests before you will leave you some other items. We had leftover water, a snorkel kit, and extra toilet paper that we had no interest in taking with us, so we left it for the next group.
Kona Coast Vacations was quick to respond to a few issues I had with the house, and they were quick to respond, although one issue was never fixed, the pool light. The pool light did not work at all during our stay. There are an okay amount of outdoor lights, but only one that points in the direction of the pool, and really it is directed towards part of the patio on the side of the pool. The lanai is well lit. The house did have some pool toys/floats. The house is a very short drive to everything in Kona. Around 5-7 minutes to Walmart and 10 minutes to the ocean, restaurants and shops. David, Kona Coast Vacations' concierge, was incredibly helpful. We exchanged numerous calls and dozens of emails and he was able to not only make recommendations, but book some of our activities. A few activities we did were Flumin' Kohala, Island Breeze Luau, and two of my small group did the Blue Hawaiian helicopter tour. All recommendations of David and all good. Do note, if you are going to do the Volcano hike, either pay for the "VIP Parking" or get a bicycle. Walking the road, while not difficult, just becomes burdensome, and if you want to see some possible lava flows, the odds are you'll be trekking over the lava rocks for a few miles on top of the 3-4 miles on the road each way.
Our overall experience was very good and I would definitively recommend Kona Coast Vacations, if for nothing else,... Date of Stay: 9/10/17 to 9/16/17

We have stayed at this location before, and knew what the location provided. We were pleased that the grounds were well maintained, and the unit was very clean and no sight of bugs. Air conditioning was welcome each day. Unit Management was prompt to respond to our request. Only issue was the landscape plants blocked the view of oncoming traffic coming southbound. It would improve safety to lower or remove so driver could see to pull-out into travel lanes. Dates of Stay: 9/13/17 to 9/22/17

Response from Management:

Aloha!  On behalf of the staff and management of Kona Coast Vacations, we very much appreciate you taking your valuable time to provide us with this very important positive feedback.   We have contacted the building management of Casa de Emdeko regarding the landscaping by the road and let them know. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay &  hope that we can welcome you again.

Mahalo

Kona Coast Vacations

The unit was very clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the private beach access that came with the property. We also enjoyed the use of the 3 speed bikes and the proximity to the shops at Mauna Lani. Would stay here again. Date of Stay: 9/15/17 to 9/24/17

View and location of the apartment are wonderful: you can hear the waves in your sleep. Decorated with a lot of taste and excellent materials, the place is equipped with everything you need for a great holiday: boogie-boards, snorkeling gear and beach chairs plus beach towles. Great! In the kitchen there is every kitchen utensil and gadget you can think off available - a veritable gourmet kitchen. It feels more like a home, than a flat for rent. The garden and pool are immaculately cared for, parking is right in front of the building. We would certainly like to come back and can highly recommend the apartment. Thanks for sharing this exceptional flat.

Awesome house to stay in when visiting Kona! Date of Stay: 8/31/17 to 9/14/17

Place was very clean, quiet, parking good, priced right and had AC. Very comfortable and will return here in the future. Date of Stay: 9/11/17 to 9/17/17

Wonderful place. We really enjoyed our stay. Date of Stay: 9/11/17 to 9/18/17

This is a great apartment, very spacious and located right on the cliffs. Its very well presented and clean, and if you look at the details and find the 360 degree tour, the information provided is completely accurate and you'll know exactly what to expect when you get there. The lanai/balcony was huge - with great views and made relaxing easy. As part of the service, Kona Coast also offers a concierge service - and they provided advice on activities and did the bookings. Nothing on this part of the holiday disappointed. Date of Stay: 9/12/17 to 9/17/17

The pictures for this villa do not do it justice. The condo is larger than it looks in the pictures. Very spacious and so well stocked. There was absolutely EVERYTHING you could want in the condo. The 2 pools were fantastic, the one closest to this condo is the quietest so we had the run of that pool. We never had to wait to use the bbq at the pool area. There are 9 bbq at the one pool and a couple at the quieter pool area. We chatted with some nice people while cooking dinner, that was great. The couches are very comfy as are the beds. Towels were thick and fluffy! There were extra pillows, towels whatever you needed. I enjoyed the little extras left to use at the beach, beach umbrellas, matts to lay on the sand, etc. The kitchen was very well stocked and a huge fridge for all your supplies! After a early morning snorkel (there are a ton of great snorkel places here within 10 mins) I sat on the upstairs lanai and had my tea, what a view! There is also a lanai off the dining room to eat dinner outside if you want. This condo is in a great location. Close to Kona and to the airport. Not far to get groceries (Costco) or to be in town. I loved that this was a very quiet location, it got busy on the long weekend and it was still quiet! I would highly recommend this condo, the management company checks in to see if you need anything. You feel very well cared for here. I hope to return soon! Thanks for sharing your beautiful condo. Date of Stay: 8/26/17 to 9/3/17

very comfortable and clean with great AC and appliances. convenient location. Date of Stay: 9/10/17 to 9/13/17

We had an incredible time in Kailua-Kona and our condo at Hale Kona Kai was perfect. We stayed in 410 and it was wonderful. We especially enjoyed sitting on the lanai in the mornings and evenings! The condo is fully equipped with everything that you need, especially the kitchen. Having the beach chairs and beach towels was very nice. You can't beat this location...the sound of the ocean waves is so relaxing and you can walk everywhere. Wish we could have stayed longer...6 days went by too quickly! Mahalo Date of Stay: 9/9/17 to 9/15/17

Quality condo very well appointed with everything we could possibly imagine to meet our needs, great location, relaxing environment, very comfortable beds, breakfast and dinner on the lanai enjoying the sunrise and sunset. Great and safe neighborhood, excellent location and proximity to grill, pool & a multitude of snorkeling bays, star viewing on Mauna Kea, Saturday market in Waimea. Date of Stay: 8/25/17 to 9/13/17

This corner condo on the ocean was perfect. The place was clean and well maintained. It was stocked with everything we needed. Shore breezes made a summer stay bearable. We really like having the Green Flash coffee shop next door. Date of Stay: 9/4/17 to 9/8/17

The place was comfortable and had everything needed! They kindly let us check in early, very friendly and timely response. Clean, well maintained and organized. Just be careful if you are looking for an air conditioned bedroom as there is only one A/C in the living/dining area (loud...! But seems like it's kind of standard here?). Also it's a partial ocean view. You don't really get the whole ocean view, but still I was happy with the place, thank you for your services! Dates of Stay: 9/2/17 to 9/5/17

We were familiar with it prior to renting it as friends had stayed there during earlier visits while we were renting unit #238. The condo is well maintained and the furnishing is very comfortable and easy to relax in. the lanai is terrific. Located where you get to great and chat with other residents/visitors. Any very easy to get to either pool. The only issue was nature caused; due to high surf the salt water pool was closed off and on during our stay. Not a huge issue since the regular pool is great. Made some new friends each day at the pool. This is our 7th or 8th visit to Cada de Emdeko. Can't say enough about the complex. We have gone to Maui and Kauai and keep coming back to Kona and The Casa. Looking forward to our next visit. Date of Stay: 8/31/17 to 9/8/17

This property has so much to enjoy. This home is nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac amoungst local neighbors; it was quiet and private but if you are planning a party, this is not the home for you. It had four private bedrooms plus a pull out on the ground floor. Two kitchens, a full one on the main, a small one on the ground, three private bathrooms with the master upstairs having its own en suite and the bedroom on the ground floor serving as a very nice "mother-in-law" for the grand-parents travelling with us. But best of all, the home is stocked!! It has beach chairs, snorkeling equip, towels, pool noodles, golf clubs (2sets), kites, water shoes in many sizes, and we added three beach umbrellas. There are three coolers in the garage for your use and a great grill! If you will take care of these lovely things, this home will take great care of you. There are several guide books -- in fact there is a book about the island that we used as our local bible and we found places that we would have never found on our own. The home has a west facing lanai that was lovely for dining at sunset and big enough for our family of 8 but it did heat up the home a bit in the evening so run those fans so you can sleep. There is no a/c for us spoiled mainlanders as the power is very expensive there so open the many windows and let the cross ocean breezes cool the home. The cupboards are well stocked and even have several cooking staples so that you don't have to buy salt and pepper, just replace what you use. This was a last minute reservation for us as our previous reservation cancelled and the agency was very accommodating. The internet was a bit spotty at times, especially on the weekend. Wonderful stay and we will definitely go back to this home in the future as we return to the beauty and wonder of the Big Island. Date of Stay: 8/15/17 to 8/29/17

Best House ever - amazing... Date of Stay: 8/22/17 to 8/30/17

The unit is right on the main street of Kailua-Kona (Ali'i Dr.) so you're in walking distance of all the restaurants, bars, and shops. There's no building directly across the street so the view from your balcony is all ocean. You even get a great view of the sunset since you're on the 7th floor (top floor of the building). Also, the balcony is fairly large and well furnished so you can really relax on the comfortable chairs while you take it all in. Or inside with air conditioning since the first level of the condo is wall to wall glass. Inside is well furnished with 3 comfortable chairs, a couch, and dinning table (4 chairs) in the main area. It's fairly spacious as our 2 year old took advantage of running around a lot. The kitchen is fully stocked (blender, toaster, coffee maker, dishes, pots, pans, measuring cups, etc.). There is a sound system throughout the place controlled by two ipods, i think. We didn't quite figure it out but when we turned it on it played Hawaiian music as default so we were happy. There is also a desktop computer. There is a second small patio out the door on the second level with beach equipment stored there. The second level is a loft but there are sliding doors that can be used to make the sleeping area private. Date of Stay: 8/21/17 to 8/27/17

Our group of 6 truly enjoyed the Ailina house stay with the beautiful home and outdoor living. This location is about 10 minutes to Kona and near many great snorkeling beaches. The grandkids loved having the private pool and everything we needed to fix our own meals. We only wish there was one room with air-conditioning as it was a little muggy at times, although fans are available. Date of Stay: 8/21/17 to 8/30/17

Well equipped kitchen and bedroom. Communication was prompt and accurate. This place is located within 5 min of all the main dive/surf shops, and groceries and dinning area. You wake up to a beautiful ocean view every day. I would highly recommend this place. Date of Stay: 9/6/17 to 9/10/17

Lovely! Date of Stay: 9/1/17 to 9/5/17

Loved this place! The directions upon arrival were accurate and very helpful. It was spacious and clean. Date of Stay: 9/1/17 to 9/6/17

Kona is one of my favorite places. This Condo is first rate because it is in a wonderful location, it is in great shape, it has everything you may need for your stay and is ideally located with an amazing view of the ocean. I highly recommend to others. Date of Review: 8/24/17 to 8/31/17

We had a good stay at Kona Coast Vacations. The house was very clean and had everything we needed in the home (I.e kitchen stuff, bath and beach towels, detergent etc). There was no air conditioning the home, so it did get very warm in the home as well as at night, however there were extra fans in the home that we used which made it much easier to manage the humid heat. There was a situation that involved a pest. Kona Coast was very responsive and came to the home immediately after I called to notify them. They were very warm and offered to expense some damage that was made to personal belongings. Overall, we were pleased with the stay. Date of Stay: 9/3/17 to 9/6/17

We fell in love with the house with its beautiful landscaping and panoramic view. The entire family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house. The kids especially had a great time. They didn’t want to leave the house to go to out to explore the island, since they were having so much fun at the pool and playing in the house. Each day started with the kids picking fresh oranges from the fruit trees and ended with a beautiful sunset dinner. For the adults, the house had great privacy and several outdoor sitting and eating areas. We cooked and barbecued a lot and the fully equipped kitchen had everything we needed. Also the 5 min drive to get to Kona restaurants, farmers market, made our stay very convenient. Date of Stay: Aug 2017

We stayed here with several other couples and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The open floor plan with direct ocean views was really a treat. This specific property had one of the nicer views and layouts that we could see by walking the sea wall that connects all homes in this property -but I'd bet that others are nice as well. The kitchen area is as fantastic as it looks in the photos and is perfect for feeding a crowd and watching the boats go by. The pool is small but adequate and well maintained. The service from the hosts was quick, friendly and competent. There was a wealth of info on where to go and eat etc.... all good advice and very helpful. We had no complaints and would stay again! One thing to note is there is no real beach to walk to other than near the airport which is "ok". There is a little cove area that you can wade with kids about a 5 minute walk South. Other than that it is lava rocks and low lava headlands that you can fish from right in front of your home -but are unsafe for swimming. Date of Stay: 8/25/17 to 8/30/17

The unit was as stated. The view, location and condo was perfect for our stay. We absolutely loved it and would definitely stay there again and recommend to friends. Only minor note we would make is that the master bedroom got pretty warm on hot days. The air didn't really reach it. But loved that there were beach chairs and an umbrella and mats to use for the beach along with few other items. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook some meals there. It was perfect for our toddler as well. Would highly recommend staying here. Date of Stay: 8/22/17 to 8/30/17

House is beautiful inside and has amazing views. We enjoyed the orchards and gardens on the property. The pool was the perfect place to unwind and relax. Thank you so much! Date of Stay: 8/22/17 to 8/29/17

Everything was fantastic! Date of Stay: 8/27/17 to 9/6/17

The house was everything we saw in the pictures when we first found it on Airbnb it's got lots of space great size pool and jacuzzi. It's in a great neighborhood and has a beautiful view. We definitely enjoyed our stay here. Date of Stay: 8/28/17 to 9/4/17

Awesome place. Love that they had all the necessary stuff (beach towels, beach chairs and snorkels) for the beach already there. Date of Stay: 9/2/17 to 9/7/17

Super nice! Close to and in between Kona and attractions. Date of Stay: 8/24/17 to 9/9/18

Thank you to the home owner who opened up this fantastic home for us to enjoy! This house is amazing. It's so spacious and gorgeous that we didn't want to leave. It's well appointed and very well taken care of. The artwork is interesting and tasteful, wood floors are beautiful and we were thankful for the air conditioners. The pool and the hot tub were so wonderful we never even bothered to head to the beach. Don't pack a lot because you won't want to leave the house and the washer and dryer are super handy! The listing was accurate and the house was clean and well-maintained. Kona Coast Vacations was helpful the couple of times I called them to ask questions. We had no issues at all with this home and will definitely stay here again! We usually stay at the Fairmont Orchid so we aren't very familiar with this part of the island, but try Lava Java in Kailua-Kona. We enjoyed dining there a couple of times! Date of Stay: 9/4/17 to 9/11/17

Ideal for our vacation needs and then more. Gorgeous views and even without an air conditioner the ocean breeze flows right though. Perfect fit for a traveler who dislikes cramped resorts and likes to feel local with the comforts of home. Great pool and generous supply of towels and linen. Kona Coast Vacations were professional and there for us if we needed them while also being unobtrusive we could enjoy our stay. They also rescued us when we realized we left some clothing in the dryer. Would definitely stay again.

This property is not only luxurious but has outstanding ocean view from all rooms and is decorated with the feel of Hawaii! Plenty of great amenities to start your stay. You can swim all day in the infinity pool or your just minutes away from other activities, beaches and restaurants. I would highly recommend this home and absolutely would stay here again when we come back to visit this gorgeous island. So much to see and do here!

Excellent Stay! Every year we plan an annual family trip before the kids go back to school. My family stayed at The Hilton Waikoloa Village and my husband & I and father stayed in this darling condo. The condo had everything we needed; air conditioning, wifi & cable, large kitchen, beautiful views and washer/dryer etc. The highlighted features that were a huge bonus; short and easy walking distance to The Hilton Waikoloa Village and store, this condo complex has the best pool & hot tub and gym (we only saw a few people using these features during our full week stay). Super cool experience.....the landscapers were cleaning up the coconut palm trees and there were large coconuts everywhere, they let me take as many as I wanted and I learned how to cut open a young coconut. It was so easy and we had fresh cold coconut water all week. I highly recommend this condo and vacation rental company. Thank you for a fabulous stay and we will be back next year for sure!!! 

We had an absolutely wonderful time in this house during our stay in Hawaii. We've stayed in many vacation rentals, both in Hawaii and elsewhere in the world, but we can happily say that this was one of our best stays. The house is great in many ways - just a few minutes drive to the center of Kailua-Kona, panoramic and unobstructed view of the ocean, private space for everyone staying in the house, luxury finishes and amenities. We can certainly say that we have our favorite house to call home on the Big Island! We bbq'd quite a lot so we wanted an extra day of trash pick-up, which was arranged quickly for us. Overall, the experience was fantastic and we hope to be back soon. Date of Stay: August 2017

I was extremely happy with my stay here! Before our arrival we receive numerous very helpful emails confirming our reservation, with details for our arrival, and from the concierge with helpful tips as well as options to book activities in advance. I have to say the concierge service was an absolute game changer! David was even better than a hotel concierge and personalized our experience - helping us with every activity and question that we had! Having this service made it a no brainer that I would return. The condo itself is in a super ideal location - a short drive (or walk depending on time of day) from town. We found it very easy to get to the beaches, restaurants, bars, marina, etc. We also had parking outside the unit which made it easy to get in and out of the building. The unit itself was very clean and beach-but feeling! The two bedrooms each had large beds and nice, big TVs and fans. The TVs had roku hooked up so we could watch all our favorite shows and movies (honestly didn't check if there was cable but probably is!). The living room / dinning room / kitchen is an open floor plan which made it easy to host a lot of people and feel very home-y. The kitchen had all utensils we needed and everything was clean. We could open the door from the living room and we had a patio that we could use to walk out to the pool / sand / outdoor bar area. At night there are tiki torches that were lit and made it feel very Hawaiian when we shared a bottle of wine at the community tables. The pool itself is large and pretty too - right over the cliff of the ocean! Definitely would recommend and plan to stay there again. Thanks for the great trip!

It had everything we needed to prepare our meals, go to the beach and enjoy hikes (the binoculars came very handy for viewing the Kilauea crater). Date of Stay: 8/17/17 to 8/26/17

Just a few words to thank your team and let you know how satisfied we were with the property during our stay in Kona. The apartment was spotless, well located and contained everything one would need for a great vacation with the family. We loved the lanai for breakfast in the morning while watching local surfers have a go at the waves! We would happily return if ever in the Kona region and would also recommend the apartment and your team to friends traveling to the Big Island.

Home is amazing, enough space to feel together and still have privacy. its close to town, the airport, costco, and still have quick access to go to Hilo side as well. as a tip, don't buy too much food, we didn't get to go out as much because we were busy cooking what we bought 🙂

This condo is outstanding. There was absolutely nothing we needed not inside or close by. Spotlessly clean and a delight to come back to each day after our outings. Breakfast on the balcony watching the dolphins was a very special treat for us. We would return in a second and very sad we live so far away or would return more often. A huge thank you

This house was perfect for my family. Each person had different needs and all were met. My mom and sister walk with canes and this house is all one level. My niece wanted a pool and the pool at this house was great for all of us to enjoy. The view is beautiful. The house has everything you could want, including beach toys. It even had a crock pot so we cooked a nice roast for dinner one night. I'd definitely stay here again. Date of Stay: 8/20/17 to 8/26/17

We recently stayed at the Beach Villas, in #1-303, a 3-bedroom penthouse unit. There are several condos in one building and this one is really lovely, has an amazing view and is just right if you want to stay right across from the beach but not spend a fortune. The condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. The rooms were just right for our famly and the lanai was absolutely the best spot in the house! The kitchen was perfect for entertaining - we just set yummy fruit and mai tais out on the big bar and everyone helped themselves. Having a full washer and dryer was nice since it gave us the luxury of having dry towels every time. The location is perfect - close to town and easy drive to any part of the island. Best of all, when we were not in the mood to go to the beach areas, the pool was the perfect place to lounge. The cost was reasonable - in fact, staying at a hotel would have been 3x the price, and we got to grocery shop in the local markets and enjoy food without spending a fortune. We loved this spot and will definitely rent it again. I do think it's important which one you stay in since they are all owned by different people, managed by different property places, and each with different views, decor and layouts.

This condo was everything we could have wanted (other than being 'on the beach'). It was very clean and well maintained. Despite being one in a string of 'occupied' condos it was relatively quiet; didn't hear the neighbors. It was conveniently located for shopping (groceries, places to eat) and not far from downtown (which was pretty crowded). The rental cost was competitive and we'd consider staying here again in needing to be in or around Kona.

Just returned from our wonderful vacation in Kona. This home was fabulous. Great location, very quiet neighborhood and very spacious. There are two bedrooms in main part of home that are very private. We stayed in master suite and it was huge! The other two bedrooms are separate from the main part of the house giving them extreme privacy. Pool was fabulous. The Spa did not work for us, but we really didn't need it. Kitchen had everything you could want. House had a lot of beach towels and chairs for the beach and boogie boards. AC worked great in bedrooms. Took awhile to cool the main house down, but as long as all the doors are closed it worked great. It was also great having security at the front gate. Overall, I would highly recommend this vacation home to anyone. We just loved it!

We stayed at the property from 20/07/17 till 27/07/17. The property was exactly as the photos show. The property was very clean and well maintained. There were 8 of us staying together and at no point did we feel like we were on top of each other. The concierge was great, even able to recommend a dentist at short notice. Any issue was dealt with promptly by the rental team. The only thing we would suggest is a kettle for those people that do not drink coffee, but that's a really minor issue.

This luxurious unit was recently renovated. All furnitures were very clean and comfy for our family of 5. This was the best of the 3 units we rented during our Hawaiian vacations! Many shops and restaurants located within few minutes of walk. Costco, Walmart and Safeway are within a few miles of driving. Need to take car to go to the beach. We have tried 4 of the recommended beaches in the condo book and were pleased with our choices. Both quiet and snorkelling beaches are within 45 minutes of driving distance both south and north of Kona Pacific.

Casa de Emdeko 136 was the perfect place to stay. First off, the location was PERFECT. So close to the exciting town of Kona. Very easy to stop by an ABC convenience store late at night if we needed something...close to big department stores so we could get our mass hauls..and a short walk to the best coffee spots, breakfast hangouts, restaurants for lunch/drinks/dinner. The condo itself was fully stocked with everything we needed from towels to laundry items even a cooler for us to take on our picnic at the Volcano National Park. There were TVs in the living room and both bedrooms with Netflix and other streaming services available - which made it nice for when we just wanted to relax in bed for a few hours between activities or when we wanted to get to bed early for a long day. Even small conveniences like a light switch next to the bed!! That might have been one of my favorite features as who likes to get out of bed when you're comfortably settled? Love the backyard of the condo. There were torches lit at night, beach chairs for us, even a fun little bar open when we wanted to enjoy our own drinks privately. The views from our own backyard were incredible. Lastly, David with Kona Concierge felt like my personal vacation Siri. He offered great recommendations, helped book our activities and plan our daily itineraries...but he even answered every single random detail question I had, down to what should I order at this restaurant? Even while out and about if I got lost or had a real-time question, he was there and very welcoming We never met in person but I let like I left the island with a good friend and a vacation Siri for next time. Will definitely come here again and would recommend to all!! Date of Stay: 8/12/17 to 8/18/17

Here I could mention all the good things but bottom line is, this place delivers! It is really nice. Go ahead and book. Do not worry. You will not regret it. My family enjoyed our stay very much. Mahalo.

We had a wonderful time at this rental property and would definetly rent this house again, only issue we had, requested beds converted to king size and were not that way when we arrive. However was corrected by property management right away! Date of Stay: 8/14/17 to 8/21/17

Very nice condo, newly remodelled with everyting you need. The only thing missing is AC in the bedroom to be able to close the bedroom door. Date of Stay: 8/8/17 to 8/20/17

This condo on the top floor was perfect. AC in mainroom and in bedroom were helpfull. Also appreciate the ceiling fans. Description and pictures are accurate. In a storage on the balcony, there are many beach accessories (look under the bed for long chair) We have seen 2 other units and A32 is the best ! All king of restaurants and boutiques are at a walking distance. Grocery store at 5 min. in car. Other big stores (Costco, Wallmart, Target, Ross...) are at 15-20 minutes in car. If you choose Big Island, this is the place for you. Date of Stay: 8/8/17 to 8/21/17

We had a great time here. The condo is really clean, quiet and well-maintained with enough equipment that we need. In addition, A/C was pretty useful especially in the daytime even though we enjoyed wonderful breezes in the morning and at night. The resident manager, Dave, was nice and kind, he kindly opened the canned spaghetti sauce for us when we couldn't find the canned opener in the kitchen! We would love to stay in the unit again when we go to the Big Island next time. Thank you very much for everything!

This home delivered on all of our expectations...Beautiful sunsets, close to restaurants, beach to hang out on, crashing waves, quiet and safe, and comfy bed. Simply wonderful!

I had such an amazing time at our vacation home.

Beautiful home everything was great except no AC in the main floor. That is where the master bedroom was and my elderly parents had that room. It was quite warm. Everything else was fantastic! Date of Stay: 8/1/17 to 8/6/17

Everything was wonderful at the condo we stayed at. It was clean and comfortable. We just would have liked to have basics in the fridge like condiments. I would definitely refer Kona Coast Vacations to my family and friends. Date of Stay: 8/12/17 to 8/18/17.

My wife and I wanted to leave a review for our amazing stay at Kona Alii 705. Our lodgings were spotlessly clean, every possible need was anticipated and provided for, and the views and location were spectacular. We were hugely impressed by the customer service from your team and our family (us and my wife's parents) were extremely happy during our time spent there. The only drawback (which wasn't a huge deal to us since my wife and her mom are from the islands), was the little critters living under the sink and the cockroach droppings on the stack of trash liners that were there on our arrival. Otherwise, everything was truly amazing! Thank you again for letting us stay there! Date of Stay: 8/16/17 to 8/20/17

Kona Coast Vacations

The view the fact we saw Dolphins and Manta Ray with the light that shines and amazing array of fish! The location is perfect close to everything and you feel so at home not just like a tourist!

We had a wonderful time staying at this amazing vacation rental with some great friends. We had high expectations from the pictures provided, but the house was even more beautiful in person. We realized quickly that this was not your typical rental. Everything inside the property looked brand new and high quality, from the furniture to the appliances. Having 3 master suites and a large common area, made traveling with friends easy. The suites were large and comfortable, but the showers in each attached bath, added a luxurious bonus that cannot be forgotten. In addition to being nicely furnished, the homeowner has provided all of the small details, from a well stocked kitchen to all the necessary daily amenities. Being within walking distance to amazing beaches, golf, shopping, and restaurants made the trip even more enjoyable. The community pool (with a waterfall and spa) is located right next to the property, and also provides a small kitchen and a couple large gas BBQs to grill on. We loved the option of going on adventures or just relaxing at this beautiful property. Staying at this rental made our vacation so much more enjoyable and relaxing. We definitely will not be staying at a hotel on the Big Island ever again! We cannot wait to go back!! Date of Stay: 7/11/17 to 7/18/17

Beautiful condo located above the pool looking directly at the ocean.

Secluded yet close to grocery and shopping. Beautiful location.

Great Apartment directly located at the Ocean -watching Dolphins from the Lanai during breakfast: priceless! Close to Kona and all Bars, Restaurants and stores.

Amazing place - perfectly located, safe, amazing view, very private and quiet. So much room for everyone. Perfect family breakfasts and dinners with the ocean view every day plus what about the gorgeous sun sets from from the lanai! Great family time, Kona is where to stay on Big Island. Everything was there in the kitchen plus beach gears too. We loved it

The house looks even better than the pictures, and the views from the backyard are amazing, every night we had unobstructed view of a beautiful sunset. The house is loaded with amenities, a fully equipped gourmet kitchen, a grate air condition with 4 individual zones, large TV with good sound system, the swimming pool and hot tub where excellent, and it only took few minutes to heat the water in the hot tub. This is a house that was build with care and everything is of high quality. We really enjoyed our 10 day stay. There was a one minor hiccup, the first morning we realized that the propane tank for the house was empty and we could not use the stove or heat the hot tub. We contacted the host, and the issue was resolved within 2 hours. If we come again to Kona we will return to this house.

The pictures for this place do not do it justice! Big, light bathroom with large closet, 2 sinks, and beautiful shower! Bed is large and great size room. Can see ocean from front door and sliding door. Washer, dryer were great. Awesome kitchen. Everything worked well. Wonderful supply of things you need and then some. Hot water that lasts a LONG time is hard to find in condos!. Walk right out to the ocean. Great saltwater pool. Great distance from town, can walk to town but away from the traffic and hustle. Can go for runs along alii drive. Coffee close and small store for liquor and snacks. Grounds keepers working hard every day, plus security at night was very on top of people and friendly. The central A.C. was a big plus. Also fans in each room! So much in one place this is a steal, you won't be disappointed! Will be back next time! Our favorite place we have stayed yet!

Beautiful house located in a quiet residential neighborhood close to the bay and within minutes of great beaches and shopping. Upon arriving the house was very clean neat and it had a wide assortment of amenities. Would recommend to any large group or large family as the common areas were quite spectacular and provided more than enough room for all people

We had five adults in our group, and stayed for a week. The condo was spacious, and even more beautiful than the pictures show. It was so safe that we opened up the doors and windows in the evening to let air flow through. The location was perfect and close to everything. I was so impressed to see the pool being cleaned every morning. The grounds were absolutely beautiful! We saw dolphins playing in the ocean from our lanai the first day. Beach towels were provided, and we really appreciated all the amenities. It did get warm in the evening, but around midnight with the fans, it became cool enough for covers. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and cannot say enough good things about this condo. Great central point for traveling to various places on the island. Excellent value for our wonderful stay on the Big Island!!! We would definitely like to stay again in the future.

From the moment we stepped through the door, we knew we found the perfect location on the Big Island. The house is beautiful and the decor is just perfect. The kitchen was well stocked and the outdoor space is gorgeous. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us, and we enjoyed the pool (although a bit cold...) and the hot tub. It was an overall great location as all activities were just a short drive away.

Although the outside appearance of the building was a bit rough, we were very pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and all the creature comforts in this condo. First, location is excellent and most popular locations in Kona are within walking distance. Second, it is right on the shoreline, so lots to see. All the amenities in the condo should be enough for any family or group. I would highly recommend this place to anyone considering the Kona area.

We loved this unit. It was right on the shore, and terrific for a 2-year old. Good location and well-stocked.

My husband and I and 3 teenagers stayed at this house for 10 days and really enjoyed the comfortable, well-appointed, clean house and pool. I would definitely come back to enjoy this property. The neighborhood is a nice mix of rental homes and local residents and I loved walking the hills and enjoying the views every morning. The only potential downside was a little traffic noise from the highway which is a couple of blocks below the house, but that may account for the fair price for the home, given how well-appointed it is. We loved sitting on the lanai each evening and enjoying the fantastic sunset views. A special shout-out to the property management company that was very attentive and accommodating to our schedule and helpful with an "expired" mongoose we had by the pool toward the end of our stay. Date of Stay: 7/20/17 - 7/30/17

This property is in a terrific location. Close to beaches, shopping, restaurants. This year was a return trip to the same property (that should be evidence of how much we love it here). Would definitely return. Kids loved the pool and Keiki Beach (a two minute walk from the house). Enjoyed gorgeous sunsets pool-side in the evenings. On this trip we enjoyed fishing, snorkeling, zip-lining at Umauma Falls, a day trip to the volcano and Black Sand Beach, and simply relaxing in this ocean-front home.

Entire staff was very responsive. Beach/lagoon was less than a minute walk. Water was very warm (in the summer), saw many types of fishes in the shallow lagoon.

Highly recommended. Beautiful place, all the amenities, great location. Would definitely go back. My only comment: it would be lovely if they stocked just very minimal, very basic cooking supplies like salt, pepper and oil. It's a small thing and prevents having to buy large amounts that won't get used. We left our oil and pepper behind for the next guests. Wonderful experience overall.

My husband and I and our 2 sons (17 & 20) visited the big island for our family vacation. We were all very happy with Villa #2403 and look forward to returning!
The villa is very clean, comfortable, and spacious. The kitchen is fully stocked - owner has provided everything! Beach towels, pool towels, beach chairs, sun umbrella, and cooler are all provided. The master suite lanai has a great view of the lava rocks, palms, golf course, and mountains. It's a great place to have a glass of wine and relax.
My sons enjoyed going to the fitness center and pools which are both just a short stroll away from the villa. Waikoloa Colony Villas are in a great location - close to beaches, restaurants, and shops. Our family loves to snorkel and hike so each day we picked a different beach to explore or trail to hike.
You will definitely need a car to travel to some of the hiking spots and remote beaches. Volcano National Park is a must see and is about a 2.5 hour drive away. Beach 69 and A'Bay are some of our favorite beaches. I recommend stocking up on groceries at the Safeway in Kona once you get to the airport. There are 2 markets close to the villas but they are best for picking up just a few items. Don't miss the Mai Grille (across the street) - farm to table restaurant! Lava Lava Beach Club is perfect for lunch on the beach.
Looking forward to returning to the island. 

We stayed at Kona Peppa for 2 weeks in July. It's a lovely home (exactly as pictured) with amazing sunset and water views. Beautiful grounds and well stocked, well cared for home!

We really like this home. It was definitely the most well-equipped from a kitchen standpoint of all the homes we've rented. We loved the amazing few and open-air nature of the home. We really enjoyed our stay.

House looks just like the pictures. Very clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Management was very attentive. Sunsets were beautiful from the back yard.

What a beautiful place!! The lanai was great, we spent most of our time there enjoying the comfy outside seating and the beautiful views. The unit has a great kitchen with everything you need. The bathrooms have been nicely updated. The master has a rain shower that was so nice. The location is perfect. It is super quiet and relaxing but yet has many amenities close by. Alli drive was easy to access with all the tourist shops. My Daughter got a henna done at Kona Henna super fun and looks great. Kona Coast Vacations were great to work with and super responsive with any of our needs. The grounds were beautiful and very well maintained. Jimmy the property manager was very friendly and welcoming. He and his staff kept the pool area in pristine conditions. I would highly recommend this unit and Kona Coast vacations.

Close to Keauhou shopping center supermarket and many restaurants were there no need to drive Long way to get food or beverage. Room were large enough for 3 adults and 2 kids. Room were bit hot during stay, There were no AC on this site but, it's normal in Hawaii, especially 2nd floor living room and loft bet room need fan for good sleep.

A five star, luxurious and well-equipped property in the perfect location. This condo boasts 3 large bedrooms all with gorgeous ensuites and is close to everything (golf, beach, shopping, walking, and more). Spacious and beautifully furnished inside and out, private balconies and lanais onto green space are your private oasis. Private, gated swimming pool steps away. Our stay could not have been better! Date of Review: aug 8, 2017. Date of Stay: Feb 2017

Very nice stay. Great location and unit.

This house was great! Had everything we needed and more. Only down side was there was no ac.

Great location & amazing condo that had everything a vacationing couple could want and only a few minutes walk into Kona...a great all-round stay. The folks at Kona Coast Vacations were also very polite and helpful throughout the stay. I will definitely use them again next time we visit the Big Island.

Better than advertised.

Spacious, nice king bed, super clean, completely updated, well-stocked, lovely lanai. We enjoyed an enchanted month-long stay and this condo was perfect. My only regret was having to leave! Casa de Emdeko is a true gem and this has to be one of the best rooms available. If you love the Big Island, you just found the perfect place to call home during your stay! Kona Coast Vacations made everything super easy in a very personable and professional manner.

We enjoyed this beautiful property for 10 days! We wished we could have stayed forever. The house was spotless, comfortable and fully equipped with all amenities needed for a wonderful vacation. The tropical view of the ocean was enhanced by the beauty of the infinity pool. Each moment was a experience that is only available in paradise. The location was in close proximity to Kona, restaurants, shopping, farmers market, boating, snorkeling and so many other possibilities. I look forward to our next visit. I recommend this property for anyone who loves the Big Island! Mahalo Date of Review: Aug 3, 2017. Date of Stay: Jul 20, 2017 to Aug 1, 2017

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property, from the gated entrance to the details of the house itself was wonderful. You pay a lot for this place (especially of there are only 2 of you) but the price is competitive and I cannot imagine a better place to stay on the Big Island. A definite step up from Keahou Estates which I have rented houses in a few times in the past. Date of Review: Jan 23, 2017. Date of Stay: Jan 7, 2017 to Jan 21, 2017

The Condo is clean, spacious and we have loved to sit on the lanai and watch the ocean. The location is perfect. It is just a few steps to Kona.

My wife and I had the privilege of staying at the Island Villas unit K1 in early April of 2016.
It exceeded our expectations as it came complete with three massive king bedrooms all with their own deluxe ensuite. An upper floor office/workspace with an amazing handcrafted desk for those days where a bit of work follows you to the Island. A generous living/eating area with more space than you can use with doors opening from two locations to your private lanai.
Modern kitchen outfitted with all the amenities of home and more for those days when you want to be creative with the Island fare and eat at home. Double driveway for parking a vehicle should you decide you need one but with everything in walking distance you could honestly survive without one.
Within close walking distance: An independent, well stocked, reasonably priced grocery store. A shopping centre with almost everything you may need including some of Hawaiis best coffee. Several excellent restaurants. An amazing spa/healthclub.
We gave this facility an in-depth tour and came away with this: A great lane/lap pool, a deluxe cardio workout area with plenty of the newest machines out there. A fully stocked weight area, 6 tennis courts, and a spa and massage area where they can do inside or outside completely private treatments. A spectacular facility to say the least, and just two minutes walk. The three beaches of Mauna Lani are in walking distance and will take you through an area of an old lava flow and fish ponds. Pictures simply do not do these views justice.
The Beach: We are fans of the beach for several reasons, and Mauna Lani has three terrific beaches, we primarily used the one closet to the beach club parking. This one has great, beach-water access, has an excellent swimming area and offers amazing snorkelling. I have snorkelled all over the world, and for ease and access, this beach offers a variety of sea life second to none, and in a quiet bay where even the youngest or least experienced snorkeler will fall in love with this place.
The Golf: Two amazing golf courses, we played: the North course twice and the South course once. I love the contrast of blue skies, brilliant green fairways and the black lava that the courses have been carved into, but the most breathtaking golf holes I have ever seen are located on the back nines of both courses. Some par 3 holes, a couple that are carved along the ocean that you could never tire of looking at. I look forward to playing both of these spectacular courses again and again.
It is my sincere intention to make a vacation at the Islands K1 Villa at Mauna Lani a must do every year from now on. It is a beautiful home away from home.

I stayed at K1 in April 2017. I took my two adult daughters with me. We were the second guests to stay after the major renovation. I saw the before pictures and even toured another unit while I was there and K1 was totally transformed from a 1980s decore into a clean spacious and contemporary look and layout. The bathrooms, especially the walk in showers, were most impressive. Each bedroom with a king bed and its own ensuite was truly a treat for us!
It was easy to feel like home in the villa. Every amenity was provided: fridge condiments, shampoo, conditioner, body wash. Even bathrobes! Thought and care was put into this rental and it showed.
KCV were great in communicating with us before, during and after our stay.
The Islands pool complex was a great way to spend quiet time after a day at the beach. The pool is free form and meanders; landscaped with lush Hawaiian greenery and lava rock featuring a waterfall and grotto. The 10 person jetted spa tub is worth a soak at the end of a hard beach day. The modern shaped lounge chairs with large umbrellas makes for a great place to relax and read a book. The state of the art bbq & kitchen facilities, dining & lounge area is another surprising plus with renting at The Islands and made for a great second social place to gather with friends and family. In the pool area you can host your own pool & bbq party! The pool itself is 200 steps from K1. The pool was rarely occupied. It was like having my own private pool.
I really enjoy the Mauna Lani area. I can stroll over from K1 and get my morning latte and croissant, step into the Foodkand for some groceries and check out the clothing at Tommy Bahamas. Happy hour at Ruth's Chris and Tommy Bahama was popular for us. Tastes bites, refreshing cocktails at great prices. Sunsets were incredible!
I loved the walk to the private beach club on the path through the lava rock and then through the sacred fishing grounds. I found the special place in the fish ponds where you can sit with your feet in the water and the tiny fish nibble the callouses off. The private beach club has a restaurant for lunch and supper and clean and modern washrooms fully accessible by beach patrons.
My daughters and I rented paddle boards at the beach and saw amazing sea life when snorkeling.
We are definitely going to rent again!

I thought I was renting at Waikoloa Fairway Villa and almost drove there. But my daughter read the directions and screamed we're up at the Village and not by Queen's Market!! Well the atmosphere was bleak as disappointment set in. We drove up to the Village in silence and found our condo. When we opened the door, we were pleasantly surprised. It was really nice and comfy with two bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. The enclosed patio made the condo really roomy. The pool, located really nearby, was really nice and practically all to ourselves. The entire family was happy with my mistake! We had a great time!! We'll be back to this condo for sure!!

The only negative issue had to do with the cleaning. Those areas that get missed, like underneath the couch where I found (noticed only because I was doing floor exercises) several macadamia nuts and the bathroom ceiling light fixture had a lot of dust & dirt in it making the bathroom lighting even dimmer. I took care of cleaning up both of these issues. The bathroom could use higher watt light bulbs. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies. The storage chest on the lanai had beach equipment which we appreciated. Date of Review: Feb 2, 2017 Date of Stay: Dec 2, 2016 to Dec 15, 2016

Casa de Emdeko #208 - clean, comfortable, quiet property. Often had the saltwater pool to ourselves. Kona Coast Vacations replaced a defective blender same day we called, and were ready to answer any questions we might have. Would go back to the Casa. Date of Stay: 7/16/17 to 7/29/17

This house is absolutely beautiful!! My husband and I brought three other couples with us and had a wonderful time! We loved everything about it! Have nothing negative to say....if we ever come back, we would definitely rent this home again!!

This is the third time we have stayed in this complex but first time in this unit and it was great. Lots of space, perfect views. This unit had lots of beach extras like snorkels and boogie boards. Only two minor issues: the twin beds in the one room are very short and not suitable for anyone over 5'2". And there were only 4 beach towels, two of which were very worn and significantly frayed. Date of Stay: 7/23/17 to 7/30/17

Kona Coast Vacations

We stayed at this house with 3 other couples and it was amazing! We really liked how each bedroom had a private bath and all the bedrooms were very nice with great beds. The kitchen and dinning rooms were great for our group and the pool and hot tub were fantastic to hang out in, especially to watch the sunsets. A little bit of a drive to get to downtown Kona, but quite close to some of the ocean excursions. Kona Coast Vacations did a great job - the house was super clean when we got there and they were very responsive to the couple of questions/issues we had. More than worth the price - we would definitely stay here again. Date of Stay: 7/15/17 - 7/22/17

I didn't notice that the property didn't have a/c. I would definitely have a/c for my next Kona stay to sleep better.

The place had wonderful space, a great kitchen, and great pool to swim and hang out in. The view was spectacular, the grounds restful. We had a blast. Date of Stay: 7/20/2017 - 7/29/2017

The only problem was the wifi and the TV set up . The wifi went out most of our vacation and they sent out a guy to fix it but still the same. If u have teenagers its a must. Then working the tv is like trying open a safe with no combination!!! . But the house and its views are the best ever and the house was great with everything u can think u . I would go back but they would have to solve the wifi and tv issues. Dates of Stay: 7/6/17 to 7/14/17

Aloha!  On behalf of the staff and management of Kona Coast Vacations, we very much appreciate you taking your valuable time to provide us with this very important feedback. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience and are very sorry about the wi-fi and t.v. issues. We would have loved to have had a chance to effect repairs immediately, but unfortunately, we were not informed of the problem until the day before your departure. The wi-fi router has been replaced and the home’s guide book examined to make sure that the TV operation is well explained. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope that we can welcome you again.

Kona Coast Vacations

The condo was in great condition, clean and well kept. The location was excellent: close to Waimea, the beautiful beaches along the Kohala coast, Saddle Road to go to Hilo and of course going into Kona. The area of the condo was safe and secure and the onsite pool and bbq area is well kept and in excellent condition. When we were not at the beach we were at the pool. Mahalo for the home away from home, we hope to return soon! Date of Review: Jul 26, 2017 Date of Stay: Jul 6, 2017 to Jul 20, 2017

Down on the end of Alii Drive - great sunset from KTA grocery and nice quiet location - away from busy area

Our family has been renting vacation homes both here and on Oahu for several years now and this house has been the best by far! This is the first time I have ever rated a vacation rental as "exceptional" but in this case it fits the bill. When we first arrived, we found everything very clean and neat. Everything was as pictured and even better. The pool was great! We went for a swim everyday to cool off from the hot Kona weather. Lots of pool toys to use for your kids. The outside patio was a fun gathering place for everyone, and we made good use of the BBQ grill too. The yard was also very enjoyable to walk around in. The landscaping was beautiful with many fruit trees and fragrant flowers to see and smell. There were pikake, plumeria, and tiare flowers. The vendors they use for the pool, and landscaping are top notch too. The furnishings are nice and comfortable. The beds were comfortable as well and we were able to get a good nights rest on them. There towels well stocked and there was more than enough for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook complete meals. And this time we even got to use the garage to park our car. This is a very quiet, private neighborhood that's gated so you feel safe as well. The only thing that could have made it better would be an additional ac unit for the living room. Kona does get warm in the summer. Other than that, I highly recommend this rental for anyone that wants to stay in Kona. Shopping and dining is just 5-10 minutes away Recommended for: Families with Young Children, Sightseeing, Girls Getaway, Age 55+, Families with Teenagers

The rental was everything we needed--convenient to Kona, lots of space, a pool, and great view. The only drawback was the house did get a bit hot during the day without any A/C. The extra fans helped, but some nights it held the heat and it was a bit uncomfortable. Also, the outdoor furniture was cheap and uncomfortable. Date of Stay: 7/7/17 to 7/20/17

After arriving from a long plane ride, we arrived at this amazing beautiful home! Very modern and spacious, enough to accommodate a family of 6. A guest apartment for our son and fiance which was perfect for their privacy. The home was perfect for our family breakfast, lunch, and dinners. The pool and jacuzzi put an essential ambiance for the perfect sunset as well as morning coffee. Having your home cooked meals and "hanging out" in a home setting set this vacation apart from others. I might add, the walk along the Alii highway adds to the experience because there is so much to see, eat, shop, and do on your way to down town Kona life. We had such an awesome vacation because it felt like home away from home even though we were so far away... A must if you want to have a vacation without the hotel aggregation!

This is our yearly vacation for relaxation and getting our Hawaii fix! The weather was a perfect 89 degrees! We loved traveling from Waikoloa to Hilo on the Daniel Highway. It takes half the time, or shaves off 45 minutes compared to driving around the island PLUS you pass through some beautiful neighborhoods in Hilo! We most enjoyed snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay with Fair Wind Cruises and visiting the Black Sand Beach! We would recommend the Hilo Zoo - it is free! Its very beautiful and you can also picnic there! Senseis Sushi at the Queens Marketplace was phenomenal! Our favorite memories include playing on the boogie boards and checking out the geckos on the lanai at breakfast time! If you get groceries, check out the Island Gourmet Market across the street at the Queens Marketplace! It has everything you need from groceries to gifts! You can get very reasonably meals there! Fairway villas is a great place - nice and quiet, clean, beautiful. This is our 2nd time here and we LOVE it. The condo was super comfortable and we really enjoyed every minute. It felt like home.

The house and setting are all we hoped it would be! We loved walking down into the village for coffee, driving to Kona for dinner, volcano National Park, Waipio Valley, Kua Bay, kayaking and snorkeling! All the fruit trees and flowers give this place the feeling of paradise. How I wish we had this view and could leave the windows open all day at home. Thank to all our hosts and guides here in Hawaii.

Unbelievable vacation spot. The house was wonderful. It was a fully equipped house with everything you'll need for all your meals. We only ate out three times all week, the rest of the days we just enjoyed the location and views. The pool with the swim up grill and bar was our lunch time spot after coming in from our secluded beach. We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the entire property. The only slight drawback was that the extra rooms were not air-conditioned, however, they had plenty of fans to make it comfortable. The master bedroom was better than expected and very spacious. They had 24 hour security so you felt very safe with all the windows open. Also, it is only a 15 minute walk to Kona city center. I would rent this house again hands down over any of the local resorts.

This is a very pleasant place to stay. We enjoyed the quiet, peaceful atmosphere. It is conveniently located, yet doesn't feel like you're in with the rest of the tourists. We wanted to live more like locals this time, and definitely had that experience! Thank you for your hospitality.

This is a great condo with a lot of room. We loved the waterfront and the little beach just steps away was great for a quick swim with sea turtles. We did have a few bugs in the kitchen, but you need to keep the garbage empty and all food packaged away. I would recommend this condo to anyone.

Our family of four had a fantastic few days in the kahalu'u Ali'i penthouse. The apartment is exactly as seen in the photos. Everything was spotlessly clean and the lanai was a really lovely place to eat and relax watching the sun set.
We were a bit concerned about the location near the road before arriving but the noise wasn't a problem at all- just a bit of care needed crossing with the children.
We spent our early mornings snorkeling over the road where the fish and turtles were beautiful. We also enjoyed visiting two step and beaches further north. The rental really is in a great location.
The booking process was easy and efficient.
Coming from the U.K. I am not sure we will get back to Hawaii but if we ever do we would love to stay in the apartment again!

The condo is very nice and big! The size is great and location even better. Right across the street from the best beach in Kona. Only complaint is that the couch and chair cushions in the family room were all flat. Fortunately, we didn't need to have anyone sleep on the couch bed, it would have been very uncomfortable! The condo was furnished with a nice cooler (that we used everyday), some pool noodles and one nice boogie board. It was a great place to stay!

Excellent stay for the whole family.

We truly enjoyed our stay in this home. There were four of us and plenty of room both in the house, on the patio and around the pool. The mattresses were excellent so everyone had great sleeps. The rental was well equipped, with the exception of the towels which we felt were scratchy and needed replacing. Also, a beautifully decorated home in a great location. Very central to everything in the heart of Kona in a gated community. We would definitely stay in this home again!

Fabulous house and location in Kailua. Just minutes from downtown and we really appreciated the gated community. Highly recommend. 

We spent 10 days here and found the unit very comfortable. Excellent view of the ocean from the lanai and couch. The bed was awesome, one of the most comfortable mattresses I ever slept on. Date of Review: Jul 12, 2017. Date of Stay: June 20, 2017

This is an incredible house and VERY well appointed! I was impressed with the fact they had so many kitchen items (never seen a slow cooker in a rental before!). The house is comfortable, very clean, nice furnishings and the landscape is gorgeous. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful private house with pool in Kona!!! 

Well maintained, good-looking condo with everything you need! Great lanai to sit and watch the tides and hear the surf on the rocks. It was a perfect getaway for two! Reviewed: July 17, 2016. Date of Stay: July 3, 2016.

The property description was spot on. We had 9 in our party and we never felt crowded. Very spacious loved that we all had our own bathroom! The property was spotless. We had a couple of minor issues that were resolved before we could hang the phone up. Great customer service. Can't wait to return. Loved our dolphin encounter, drive to Hilo, exploring the volcanoes, kayaking adventure, parasailing, mantarae dive, Splashers, Lava Lava Beach Club, Bubba Gumps, and all the amazing beaches!

Very nice home, super high-end homes location, gated community but the home needs updating. Sink garbage disposal needs rubber insert as food starts flying to your face when you use it. The home could use an A/C as it gets pretty warm there in the month of July. Driveway design is crazy S shape and if you are not careful you will hit the concrete wall. The house is situated close to a busy street so there's always car noise present. Other than that, its a beautiful home with an awesome view.

It is close to everything, yet when we returned from an outing it was very quiet! Several times we had the pool to ourselves! The manicured yard is simply beautiful with constant upkeep! Our condo was very spacious and clean! It was well stocked with everything we needed and the furnishings were very comfortable! I'd definately recommend this condo to anyone staying in Kona area!

Our experience at the bay watch house was so amazing. Everything we wanted and more. I have always wanted to stay in a home on the big island and for my retirement that is what we did. Including my grandkids and family what a forever memory for all of us. Date of Stay: 6/24/17 to 7/2/17

Our family had a really nice time.

Great time in your place. We had a wonderful family vacation. Golf was a lot of fun. House was full of anything you needed. Left on Jun 30, 2017 for a stay in May 2017

This was our first time going through a property management company on Airbnb (as opposed to working directly with the owner). We have always had excellent experiences using Airbnb and this time was no different. The level of service and communication we received from Kona Coast Vacations was unparalleled. Everything was handled smoothly and professionally. And they were so kind as to give us a welcome gift basket upon arrival! Thankfully, we encountered no problems whatsoever during our stay. But if we had, I am confident that they would have been handled promptly. The listing itself was out of this world. For the price, and even for twice the price, it was well worth it! The views, the comfort, and the spaciousness certainly made this our most memorable place to stay during our trip to Oahu, Maui, and the Big Island. Pictures certainly do not do this place justice! Highly recommend! Date of Stay: 6/3/17 to 6/7/17

We loved our rental home! It was very spacious and our favorite was the table on the balcony with an ocean view. We had breakfast outside every morning. What was great about this unit is that there were beach chairs, beach towels and umbrellas provided. Those were much needed. We used them everyday at the beach. There were also spices, ziplock bags and containers provided and that was a big use as well. We loved this home. One thing that was a little inconvenient was the water pressure in the showers. Warm water had barely any water pressure so we ended up taking showers in Cold water where there was a lot of water pressure. But I'm sure that's an easy maintenance fix. Thank you Kona coast vacations! We will be back! Date of Stay: 6/16/17 to 6/26/17

This was a wonderful rental. The house was stocked with all needed amenities. Great view and great neighborhood. Date of Stay: 6/15/2017 - 6/23/2017

To tell you the truth, I was a bit skeptical when I booked thinking the pictures were "doctored" or the description was "enhanced" but it was even better than advertised. First, everything went flawlessly with the rental company, they provided all the information and kept us up to date, second, we arrived to find our condo was everything they had promised - and more! For example, it was well stocked, even had beach chairs, beach bags, beach towels along with plenty of dishes, pots, pans, and kitchenware. Third, the view and the loft were even better than the pictures and there was a pool, plenty of parking, and convenient trash deposit just steps away. The bedrooms and living room had air conditioning which had not been mentioned which was another great surprise and best of all, we were located perfectly within walking distance of a shopping center. Bottom line, the entire experience, start to finish exceeded our expectations from the rental process to the accommodations, to the view. Date of Stay: 6/7/17 to 6/21/17

Very comfortable and convenient location for The Shops and a short drive to the beach.

We've stayed at this beautiful condo before because you just can't beat the proximity to the ocean. The condo is exactly as pictured.The pool is an added bonus. Two negatives-1. is the amount of time it takes to heat the water in the shower, even with the booster. A lot of water is wasted waiting for the temperature to come to semi-warm (it never got remotely hot)and 2. the vegetation on the wall and around the gate to the beach needs to be cut way back. Part of the view of the beach is hidden because of the overgrown bush and the little path from the gate to the beach is really difficult to walk through. I know some cutting has been done on the bushes but it needs a little more trimming.

This is a lovely condo in a great location on the Kona coast. There are lots of positive aspects to the condo in the it is roomy, the location is perfect, it's well stocked, and it's well kept. On the negative side however there are some items that we struggled with. We normally rent condos in the Hawaiian Islands that have air conditioning and this one does not. While we knew this going into the rental, we didn't fully comprehend what that would mean. This unit, being right at ocean front, was designed to fully open up to ocean breezes by opening up sliding doors and louvered windows. While this kept the unit reasonably cool, it also meant that it is very noisy, not only from the ocean surf but the neighboring units as well as the very busy street traffic. We all wore earplugs at night to help quiet things down but it still is a very noisy spot.
Another issue with being right on the ocean with no air conditioning, is that the inside of the unit is damp. The tile floor became slick, the carpeting damp, the glass table tops cloudy, the countertops moist, all from the ocean air and high humidity. We were not used to this coming from an area that has relatively low humidity so perhaps this is normal for the area. I just think an air conditioned unit would have been more to our liking but the tradeoff was staying at a beautiful location right on the ocean.

I recently returned from a 14 night stay in Stephanie and Jerry's condo. The condo is as described and depicted in the listing. I traveled solo so I had an abundance of space in a condo that will easily accommodate 4 to 5 people. I had no issues with this condo and everything I used was in good working order. The unit and grounds were well-maintained. The owners are very responsive, in a timely manner, to any inquiries you may have. I particularly liked the location of the condo within the complex; it's located in Building 3 that is the closest to the ocean and the furthest from the street. The view from the lanai is very expansive and beautiful and you don't see other units; I ate most of my meals there accompanied by the lovely sounds of happily chirping birds. I wanted to spend my time on the island living as much like a local as possible while having easy access to shopping/attractions and this condo was perfect for doing so. The unit is so comfortable and conducive to a very peaceful feeling. I would return here in a heartbeat and would highly recommend others to stay here as well.

Beautiful suite. Lots of openings didn't need air condo. Beautiful view.Quiet location.Suggestion for improvement is replace rusty knives and ensure lights are on upon arrival. Remote fan/light controls are challenging to set.

The condo was everything we expected it to be if not more. Clean, comfortable, and an absolutely fantastic view and lanai almost made us want to just hole up and not go out! The grounds were immaculate. The location was very good and it was quiet and yet full of life with families.

Having done no "vrbo" type vacationing in the past I was a little apprehensive signing up for one. My fears were completely unfounded with this property. It was fantastic. The views are gorgeous, the location very convenient for all the big island adventures you will want to be taking. Little extras like scuba equipment, bocce ball set, coffee grinder, nice outdoor grill, really made this a home away from home for our week long stay. The property management company was top notch and the concierge service helpful. My only regret was having to leave this fabulous vacation home.

Very good

we thoroughly enjoyed out stay at the Casa, unit 310 was beautifully appointed, the kitchen had everything that was needed and more. The stove/oven was a blast from the past(late 60's?) but worked perfectly well. The grounds were lovely and well kept. The bed was very comfortable. The Casa is very quiet facility, so fyi for families with children, there are not many attractions other than the 2 pools. Not an issue for us though. We had booked a manta ray snorkel adventure with Kona Coast Vacations. The catamaran KonaStyle, left Kona heading south towards the Sheraton Resort. It was a nice boat ride, however there were approx 6 other boats at that location at the same time. We noticed that the lights used to attracted the plankton to our boat weren't as bright as the others, hence our manta experience wasn't as exciting as it could have been (no whoops or cheering from our group) although, that being said we did see a few manta's. We also found other tours advertised in Kona that were less expensive. We will return to the Casa again one day! Mahalo and Aloha from BC Canada

We had the best time ever this past week! The place was perfect for us. Loved the view! Enjoyed a potluck dinner with other guests for Thanksgiving! What a great place! Cannot wait to go back!!

First off I would like to express my family's wonderful experience at this property. The pictures really don't do it justice. We ate 5 out of 7 dinners out on the lanai rather than going into town because....well,,,,why wouldn't you?! So peaceful and glorious with the setting sun. That being said we did have a major issue with the A/C which controlled the main part of the house and lower master BR. although the Kona Coast Team returned all of our calls and emails the compressor/parts had a failure which was unresolved by the time we left. We did however have A/C in the other bedrooms which were controlled by separate units. Fortunately the sliding glass doors helped to provide flowing air throughout the main portion of the home which was without A/C. Also, the owner was gracious enough to provide a partial refund for out inconvenience! The jets in the spa did not work but Kona Coast sent a couple of guys out... so for future guests I hope it works. Our family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our time there even with those couple of glitches and would consider returning to this home on our next visit!! Beautiful property!

Very beautiful home set in a perfect location above the bay. We were able to see Honu (Green Sea Turtles) and many types of fish right below us as well as great sunsets and a little wild weather 🙂

We live in Alaska and this was our reward at the end of a long cold, dark winter. The home is tastefully decorated, roomy and comfortable. The kitchen is equipped with everything needed to create delicious meals. The landscaping is beautifully designed to ensure privacy, and listening to the early morning bird song was a lovely way to wake up. Some excursions fell by the way as we relaxed by the pool and soaked in the warm sun and ocean views. The only negative was leaving. Thanks so much for everything!

This was our first time at this location. It was perfect for two couples. It was furnish extremely well, very clean and had perfect view of the ocean. Easy access to the beach and shoreline. Turtles basking right in front of our condo was especially enjoyable as well as seeing dolphins jumping. We will definitely come back. The beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, sun umbrella came in very handy.

This home was perfect for our family vacation. The 3 bedrooms, opening to lanai and ocean view, gave us all a space of our own. The common areas are spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped for just about any cooking you want to do. Entire property is very clean and well maintained. Being up the hill a bit from Kona we had nice ocean breezes. The home is somewhat off by itself, so a real feeling of privacy. A very relaxing place to stay! The pictures on the web site are true to the reality of this beautiful spot. Highly recommend to others. We all decided we'll be back!!

This condo has been beautifully updated. It is quite spacious, has a great lanai with a partial ocean view. The location is great, near to many restaurants and shops. The communal pool area is great. The condo is stocked with everything you could need from cooking utensils to snorkel gear. Don't rent a van or SUV as the parking stalls are very small.

We stayed in this property for a week and truly enjoyed the experience. It was spacious, well appointed, modern and comfortable. The location was great, the grounds and pools lovely and the staff very helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

This is our second year staying at Maluna Palm. I find the kitchen to be well stocked with everything you need to cook at home. The furnishings throughout the home are very comfortable. It is very close to Kona Town less than 5 minutes so very conveniently located. Right off why 11 that takes you to the Valcano.

We have stayed here twice now and will likely return! Love the location - being right on Keiki beach cannot be beat. Walking distance to downtown Kona and easy access to the highways for sightseeing. Management and maintenance staff is excellent and easy to contact.

Stayed at Kona Reef in November and returned again in May Different condo, this was in better condition than the last one. Kona Reef is a great location for walking to Kona. Parking is not always easy so this is better. Hoping to return again soon!!

My daughter and I have been to the Big Island many times, but always stayed in a resort close by. Since it closed, we decided to try this cottage as we'd driven by it going into town. Are we glad we did! It was everything we hoped for, and more. It was exactly as described, easy to access, booking was easy, information was provided regularly, small but cozy, convenient to everything, immaculate inside and out, appliances all worked, high top table made it easy to see the water over the railing. It was also nice we didn't have to worry about a key as there was a pinpad entrance. Everything that was listed as included, was! It was a perfect spot and size for us, it may be a little small though for 4 adults. We hope to get back next year. I would highly recommend the cottage.

Nice Condo.
Absolutely zero beach equipment. Realize it's not guaranteed, but have always found equipment in other condos

We love the Kona Reef for it's oceanfront location and proximity to Kona town. However, we really loved Kona Reef A27. This place is amazing with it's oceanfront lanai, 2 bedroom and 2 bath. Everything one could possibly want was furnished. And, I have to say, this was by far the cleanest condo we have ever stayed in, so kudos to the housekeeping - I believe her name is Rose! Everything was terrific.

Loved the unit. Very nice and clean. Could not ask for more. The walk along the lava coast was spectacular.

My wife and I were celebrating 20 years together and had family with us to help celebrate. This was a great value for such a beautiful house. We were greeted with a small welcome basket and amazing views of the coastline and a gorgeous sunset. We spent the majority of our time on the lanai, enjoying the views and the breeze coming off of the coast. The house was located a mile or two from the beach and downtown Kona, so it was an easy drive. There are multiple farmer's markets to get fresh produce, and the pantry here had some basic spices to save us from buying them at the supermarket. Overall, this was an incredible experience and would highly recommend this house.

The house and location was amazing. We had the best time of our lives!!

My wife and 2 older kids stayed for 10 days at this amazing ocean front unit. You can not get a better view or be any closer to the ocean. The unit is very nice with a large master bedroom, smaller second bedroom and nice open living area and kitchen. It is less than 1/4 mile from Kona, just a wonderful short walk. The unit has beach chairs, snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach towels and the kitchen is very well equipped. The bathrooms are fine but need updated. We have stayed at the Kona Reef several times and love the small complex with pool and hot tub right on the Ocean. We had a great time in maybe the best unit in the complex.

Wonderful property location, facility and management. Would definitely stay again.

We have been to Hawaii numerous times as well as Maui, Kauai and Oahu. This is our second stay at the shores and our family had an amazing time. The grounds were very well kept although the gardeners started at 7:00 am, didn't bother us as we were up at 6:00 am LOL. Pool was very nice and the room was exactly what we needed. Friends that visited us and stayed at the Hilton were very impressed with the space and the overall quality. Overall the stay was very enjoyable at the price we payed. Normally we like to stay in Maui and know it is more expensive but the value was worth visiting Kona again. Mahalo

We stayed here for 11 days to celebrate our 5 year anniversary and also invited my in laws and brother & wife. It was perfect.

The property was exactly like the photos. It was very clean and taken care of. We did have super small items we had to call the property manager for: (1) the propane tanks for the grill were empty. They graciously provided new tanks the following morning (2) We thought the keypad lock didn't lock. Maintenance called us immediately and explained how to secure the lock. (3) the Master toilet flush didn't work after awhile and we had to flush by opening the back lid and manually flushing (yuck). It wasn't a deal breaker and we reported it on our final day. They were really great about it.

We would absolutely stay here again. The service. The home and the location was perfect.

I would highly recommend the Haleo Luau at the Sheraton, as well as Hapuna beach and the Four Seasons Resort for dinner. The home was a central location and the driving to sights weren't bad at all.

We truly had a great trip and did a lot around the Island.David our concierge was very helpful and gave us a lot of insight into activities.The views and sunset from the house were spectacular. Home was very well stocked with all the amenities.Thanks for our stay.

Tastefully furnished and everything you need in a quiet, relaxing setting.

Our family had a seven day stay at Pu'uwai Alii Place. The stay was wonderful & the house was perfect. All amenities were provided! The kitchen had everything you could need! The rooms were lovely & beds so comfortable. The saltwater pool was enjoyed everyday & evening. We loved the location of the house - very peaceful & tranquil. We loved coming back after a day of excursions. The views from top balcony were wonderful! Mahalo Pu'uwai Alii!!

Well appointed, wonderful view, many amenities including USPS mailing supplies we used to mail some of our Kona purchases home. Very clean. Property management company responded quickly to all questions.

Light and airy, fully equipped condo. Very convenient location with great facilities. Would definitely return again!

Great location and the view was incredible. Quiet and relaxing.

Beautiful home and great location
We loved everything and already planning a return visit

We needed assistance from the on-site property manager to enter the room on arrival as the door code didn't work. On-site manager was very helpful. Room was well equipped and pool towels were nice to have. Kitchen cabinet door next to microwave stays open and gets in the way. New shower head needed. Clothes washer faucet leaked at the stem. Bedroom fan is off balance and makes noise. Liked the BBQ area and adjacent seating with lounge chairs. Pool area excellent. Overall a good experience, would recommend this place to
others.

Beautiful home, great location, the company was great to work with. Loved the house. Amazing view from the beautiful pool and hot tub.

Great house and great location! - No air-conditioning

Property was beautiful,convenient, with great amenities. It was comfortable and extremely well stocked. Probably one of the nicest places we have stayed at. Property management accessible and great to deal with. Dates of Stay: 5/28/2017 - 6/7/2017. Reviewed on 6/9/17.

As stated in the title, photos do not do this place justice. Every little detail was there. The support crew, who were easily reachable at any time, were just fantastic answering our questions. Further, the concierge service provided with the rental (David) was so friendly and helpful it really made the whole trip so perfect. As it turns out, my sweetheart and I chose this place to elope. We have shown some of the photos to family and friends and they think the images were photo shopped. They have said there is no way it is really that nice. But it is. We slept with the doors open and screens pulled and were lulled asleep by frogs and woken in the morning by birds. Such a paradise. We hope to make a tradition of returning to celebrate future anniversaries.
Thank you so much for allowing guests in this lovely home.

This was a wonderful vacation. It was my husband and I and my adult son. The beach just across the street was a amazing snorkeling spot. The street was a bit load however that didn't bother us. The only reason I gave 4 stars on the condo, is because it was warm. The air wasn't very cool in the unit. We didn't call about it, we just slept with the windows open. However it was warm in the back of the property. The bedroom my son was in. They were very helpful before arriving with reference to things to do, reservations to make in advance. I loved it. Would stay again.
 

Beautiful views, immaculate common areas with pools and gas grills. The apartment itself is as advertised, although the furniture and decor are a bit tired. Reasonably good base for exploring the Big Island, and good value. Date of Stay: 6/7/17 - 6/10/17

We just got back from our delightful stay in Casa de Emdeko , unit 136. The place was immaculate, lower floor which means instant access to both pools, the BBQ', the roaring ocean and its dreamy view: in short, perfect! It was nice and quiet too, well located to the little village of Kailua/kona (short walk to Bongo Bens for breakfast and Huggos for Mai tais!) Actually, there was access to most anything you need for a great vacation. Telling all my family and friends about this reasonably priced gem. Date of Review: Jun 8, 2017. Date of Stay: May 2017

Our group of 8 rented this property for 5 nights and while we had high expectations, this house far exceeded them. The house is gorgeous, more than well stocked, spacious, clean, beautifully furnished and warm and inviting. Be sure to leave lots of time in your schedule to just sit and gaze upon the mountain view of the coastline and ocean while sitting next to the large pool and hot tub. The two bedrooms in the ohana are very large and nicely done. The location--between the airport and Kailua-Kona--was perfect for all of our exploring. While we were all looking forward to our next stop, Maui, none of us wanted to leave this house. Our group couldn't recommend this house enough. We all hope to return again. Also, David of Kona Vacations was so helpful and responsive re: planning our trip. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with us.

This is our 2nd time in this unit and our 4th time at Sea Village. It is the only place we will stay in Kona. The location is perfect and exactly what you expect a Hawaiian vacation to be. Oceanfront! Waves continuously crashing the surf, unobstructed sunsets and a beautifully manicured property. Situated close to town, you can walk or drive to restaurants, the funnest beaches, shopping etc. We keep our circle tight. Magic Sands is our favorite daily beach. Shopping for condo goods is easy at Walmart and Safeway after getting coffee from Starbuck's. (Seattelites) This condo is next to the pool and the has the side wall of windows for a view and the 2 lanais are the best! We spend days at the beach so the people in the pool are not an issue. We have seen whales and spinner dolphins from this condo. It is by far the best unit on the property with the parking lot close but not too close. The bbq grills are near the front door and eating in is easy. The condo has everything we needed. The beds are comfy and the dining room is recently updated. We lacked for nothing. Having the w/d is helpful for beach towels etc. We are a party of 6 and fit comfortably in this unit. We rented mopeds and drove to the End of the Earth where we jumped off a 30 ft cliff into the ocean. Then lunched at Sam Choy's, a place not to be missed! The moped rental was 24 hrs so we got up in the morning and drove to coffee and more! Happy hour at Huggo's On The Rocks with our feet in the sand, brunch at Fish Hoppers and a stop at Bubba Gump's for the trivia. The bike rentals on Alli'i Drive were cheap but worth it for a morning ride along the seawall. We tried a new beach, just passed the airport, Kua Bay. Good surf, much bigger beach than Magic Sands and there is a food truck! We will be back to this very spot in 2 yrs. It is perfection. My only complaint? I never have enough time there!!!

The house to commence our Holiday dream. Beautifully presented and offering every conceivable thing required to a point where it was very hard to leave..It was a real pleasure to arrive at the house. Even to find flowers in a vase. I am a florist by trade,so to walk around the garden an see all the wonderful fruit and flowers was a real joy. We even found a Bat flower in bloom, which we picked and had in a vase the whole time we were here. The view from the house is lovely, as we watched watched the cruise boats come in and out.
Thank you for a lovely Holiday

Excellent resort, very modern, quiet, friendly. It was a perfect location, full equipped flat, own Parking space, we come back!!!

We had a great time celebrating our 2nd anniversary with special honeymoon/anniversary champagne glasses provided in this fabulous townhouse. The townhouse was very quiet and well equipped for all of our kitchen, lounging (inside and out) and beach needs. The two pools are beautiful and have plenty of lounge chairs and grills for cooking dinners and making new friends. The downstairs lanai is great for morning coffee and meals and upstairs lanai for relaxing and taking in the views of the mountains, golf course and peek-a-boo view of the ocean. After a day at the beach, we relaxed in the townhouse’s very comfortable living room and watched premium cable TV or owner’s provided DVD movies on a 55’ inch flat screen TV. Definitely check out the swim with dolphin program at the Hilton. The Waikoloa Colony Villas complex is ideally located near fantastic sandy beaches that offer snorkeling, boogie boarding, relaxing and swimming. There are also 2 sets of shops (Kings and Queens) that include stores and restaurants within the Waikoloa Resort area. The property management company made it very easy for us to get into the townhouse by sending us an email with the gate and house codes well in advance of our visit so we didn’t have to waste any time checking in. We can’t wait to come back to this area and this townhouse. Date of Stay: 5/12/17 to 5/20/17

I had a wonderful stay. Everything was up to my expectations. Stayed: 7/29/2016 - 8/2/2016

Comfortable rooms with a large living space to relax. Environment is very quiet but still comfortable for a family of five to enjoy. Farmers market across the way with town 5 minutes away. Date of Stay: 5/25/17 - 5/28/17

We enjoyed our stay at Bali Kai 213. It was a bit smaller that other condos we have stayed in for the price but it was very clean and I liked that. The ocean area outside the condo was great and one day we saw 10 sea turtles! Kona Coast Vacations requires that you either buy damage insurance or put a $3000 deposit on your credit card. We opted for the deposit on my credit card and as of today, it has not been returned (15 days after departure and I sent an e-mail). Other than that, the condo was nice and I would stay there again. The pool is being remodeled soon so if a pool is important to you, double check that it will be available.  Date of Review: Jan 28, 2017.  Date of Stay: 1/2/17 to 1/18/17.

Kona Coast Vacations

This was everything and more of what we expected. This is not a four star resort, it is basically someones rental so know that going in. We were not at all disappointed. The house is large and with our three families we never were on top of each other. We lucked out and had the master room, though we did switch out for a night so others could share the experience. The ocean waves can be so loud that some may choose to close the sliding door (thats how close the water is!) ,we did not! However, keep in mind that by leaving the door open that the A/C will not work which can effect the rest of the rooms. The breeze seemed to work for the others in our case. Some of the areas in the house appeared to have been updated and some were a little dated. EVERYTHING WE SAW WAS CLEAN AND IN GOOD SHAPE. The house has an iron and a full size washer and dryer which is wonderful. The wading and snorkeling beach is very close and parking is ample. Enough for two cars and it is covered. The house well equipped with dishes, pans, utensils etc. We absolutely would stay here again.

Wonderful! Everything we needed.

We were here for business and there were 3 of us. It's a gated location - nice. The house was spacious and clean. They even had visitor parking the additional car. Will definitely be coming back! Left on May 24, 2017 for a stay in May 2017

This house and its location just by keiki beach with its calm water pool which is perfect for young kids, was perfect for us. We spent a week there with 7 people, including a 3 year old and a 4 year old.
If we go to the west side of the Big Island again, I'm sure we would book this same place again.

Very comfortable house, very clean and very well equipped. We mostly enjoyed sitting on the covered terrace with the perfect sea view!

Kawena 5 was a lovely home in an upscale residential neighborhood a short distance above Kona. The location was convenient to everything in the area, and its position afforded wonderful views of Kona, the ocean, and sunsets. All the bedrooms were exquisite and air conditioned. Note that the lower floor (except for the bedroom there) ha no AC, but with ceiling fans in every room, the house stays comfortable and cool off well at night. The kitchen was very well equipped and there was plenty of indoor space and outdoor space, all with lots of seating. Finally, the pool and hot tub made for an excellent stay. Plus, the concierge service provided by David was so helpful with great recommendations and on target descriptions. This was a perfect house for group of 7 adults and two small children.

Excellent Ocean View in a cute and clean condo. This was perfect for my husband and I for a week, it was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend! Kona Concierge was extremely helpful.

Had a great experience. Active volcano and 45 minute swim with wild dolphins were highlights. The condo was quite comfortable and convenient. The condo we stayed in was nicely sized for two couples but the kitchen and appliances could use updating, as well as bathrooms. They are a little tired looking. The washer and dryer was nice but the spin cycle was really noisy. Living and dining area lovely. Bedrooms a little close to parking area noise but quieted down fairly early. Would have loved air conditioning in bedrooms at least, but luckily only really hot a couple of days. Overall acceptably comfortable. Pool and Oceanside location awesome, and nice BBQ area.

A beautiful big place , well decorated, large. Great kitchen
Was awesome will definitely recomand

We've been coming to the Casa for 20 years and still enjoy it. Unit 328 was very nice with pleasing decor and excellent kitchen updates. We'd happily stay there again. My only complaint was the pillows were too thick but we dropped by Walmart and got some thinner ones. Problem solved.

I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful this condo was. The pictures didn't do it justice. I was absolutely perfect!! The location being able to hear the fountain as well as the ocean was so relaxing. Also having air conditioning along with plenty of fans was kept the temperature perfect. Let's talk about the Master. I have a very bad back and was really nervous about the bed, and no need it was SO comfortable!! With all the extra pillows and he dark shades in the room in was easy to sleep as long as you wanted. Lastly the kitchen. I was so surprised at how well the kitchen was stocked. It had everything! My husband and I will definitely be back. We had an absolute wonderful stay!! Stayed 3/23/2017 - 3/27/2017

great!! stayed 3/1/2017 - 3/6/2017

Property was beautifully landscaped. Location of unit was perfect. The weather was great but the swimming pool would have been a bit more enjoyable if the water would have been a bit warmer. stayed 1/9/2017 - 1/23/2017

Stayed in Casa de Emdeko 221 for a week. Loved the complex with its two pools, bbq area, beach area, beautiful grounds & location to Kailua-Kona. Staff at Casa where very helpful & pleasant. The unit itself was very adequate, but dated. Kitchen okay, though toaster needs to be replaced, dishwasher in need of repair & cabinets could be spruced up. Bathroom was good, but toilet slowly drained on its own & would have to refill during the day & night. Also would have been nice to be able to use more than 1 bath towel, face towel & face cloth per person during the whole stay. Overall, I would recommend this property to others & would stay at the complex again. stayed 2/28/2017 - 3/7/2017

Our vacation rental was nice and clean. The unit could do with an upgrade for sure, I found the kitchen really tight, the dishwasher and oven hit cupboard doors. The complex itself is great loved the pools and BQ area. Would definitely come back, but maybe to a different unit.stayed 1/31/2017 - 2/15/2017

The appartment is very clean and comfortable. We found everything as described on the website. It is perfectly situated near Kona city to explore the island. The pools let you have an evening swim after an island trip.We would definetely recommend this appartment for couples.Thank you for having us! Stayed 1/9/2017 - 1/20/2017

We were looking for last minute accommodation during the Christmas-New Year period and this was the only option available. We were pleasantly surprised. The apartment is quite spacious, with a lovely balcony. The location is pretty good as well, just outside the main drag of Kailua-Kona.stayed 12/26/2016 - 12/29/2016

Unit was clean and quiet. There is no AC included. Weather was moderate so it wasn't a problem. Great for two people, but might be a little crowed for more than two. stayed 12/29/2016 - 1/5/2017

This was the perfect place for us to relax after exploring kona and the big island. Perfect location with all the amenities we needed. Great value, and we would gladly stay again. stayed 1/20/2016 - 1/27/2016

One of the most relaxing, quiet and best-equipped places we've ever stayed in. No traffic noise. Good location. Comfortable and quiet a/c. and ceiling fans too! Tremendous value. A bit dated but the only thing missing was a walk-out sandy swimming beach, but close enough to that and good snorkeling. Exceptionally clean, peaceful, friendly, casual, zen-like courtyard, awesome salt-water pool (regular one great too but a bit too cool for us) and very pleasant shaded cabanna with attached outdoor patio. Wonderful man-made beach strip. A place for everyone: sun, shade, at a table, on a lounger, in or out of the water, with others or alone, in the wind or sheltered. Exceptionally quiet accoustics; LOVED our lanai! Tranquility at its best. Good privacy too if that's important to you. The quiet we crave and enjoy! Can't wait to return!! stayed 2/20/2017 - 3/16/2017

Location was walking distance from the attractions on Alii drive. Easy access to main roads. Casa De Emdeko was clean and well furnished. stayed 12/24/2016 - 12/31/2016

This was our first Kona vacation but second visit to the Big Island. We selected our vacation accommodation based on review of the available vacation properties offered through the Kona Coast Vacation web site and Trip Advisor reviews of both the complex and our particular unit. All the reviews were very positive. Kona Coast made the booking process easy and check in process was flawless. Both our unit and the complex in which we stayed met our expectations and provided excellent value for the money. The unit and complex while older was well maintained and Kona Coast Vacations provided all information that we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We would have no hesitation about booking a future vacation using Kona Coast Vacations. Mahalo stayed 12/1/20
