2 Bedroom 2 Bath Upgraded Oceanfront Penthouse

You have just found your own penthouse on the top ocean front corner with panoramic ocean views from every room. Be sure to see the Virtual Video Tour. The link is the arrow or partial image to the left of the main picture above. This is one of only of a few two bedroom units that has air conditioning throughout. Why suffer with just a wall unit in the living room (like other condos), when you can have air in both bedrooms as well as the living room?

Sit back and enjoy the spectacular, crystal blue and balmy Pacific Ocean from your large private lanai with tide pools just 30 feet away.

This 2 bedroom ocean front unit is on the north corner of the top floor of the D building. This unit has the advantage of being cooler than many other units and experiences cooling, balmy breezes. There are side windows in the dining room, kitchen and each of the bedrooms, providing natural lighting and a cross breeze. There is an air conditioner, although with the good breezes it is usually not needed.

Comfortable sleeping for up to 6 persons, there is a king size bed in the master bedroom, and a king size bed in the second bedroom, and a queen sleeper/sofa bed in the living room. TV's are in the living room and each of the bedrooms.

Also positioned right next to the shoreline, the Resort’s recently renovated salt water pool and Jacuzzi is just a few steps away from the unit itself; as well as the four immaculately-maintained gas barbecues in the dining cabana adjacent to the pool. That is a great place to BBQ dinner, and watch the beautiful Kona Sunsets.

Complete convenience, Hawaiian style! The Kona Reef is on the edge of Kona town, so you do not have to drive every time you want to go into town. You can walk to town in just a few minutes, and visit numerous restaurants, shops and the farmers market. It is really one of the most convenient locations in Kailua-Kona.

This private condominium has everything you need for an unforgettable Hawaiian experience. It is fully furnished including dishwasher, washer/dryer, small appliances, hair dryer, dishes, utensils and linens. It includes dish washing soap, dish washer soap and a starter box of detergent. It is your own personal, tropical beach hideaway!

Our availability calendar is always up to date, and we have multiple units available at the Kona Reef. We have four 2 bedroom units, six 1 bedroom ocean front units, and twelve 1 bedroom ocean view units. With multiple units, if this or another is not available for the dates you want, one of our others probably is.

We are happy to answer any questions, and you are welcome to ask by Email.

I wish we would have had more downtime on our vacation but one of the best things was waking up and sitting on the lanai and drinking coffee in the morning and watching the waves and ocean activity. Very nicely appointed condo which had everything we needed including snorkle gear! Very happy with the condo and would definately stay here again if traveling to Kona!

Beautiful view
This property was clean and has a beautiful ocean view. The unit has plenty of amenities for all the rooms and beach gear. The lanai has very nice furniture and is perfect for watching the sunsets, surfers and whales. It is close to town and is a short walk to a farmers market, shops and restaurants. Free parking is definitely a bonus.

Another beautiful stay at the Kona Reef
This is our 3rd stay at the Kona Reef and the second time in this unit. It was great the first time we stayed and it was upgraded before this stay and it is even better. The location is perfect. On the water so you can sit on the lanai and watch and listen to the waves crash and watch some great boogie boarders. Plus it is only a few minutes easy walk to the Kona waterfront and all of the stores and restaurants and the farmers market. The lanai was part of the upgrade and the online pictures on VRBO don't show how beautiful it is now. There is a beautiful wood laminated table and matching bar with chairs which make it even lovelier. Part of the upgrade was also new mini split air conditioning units for the living room/kitchen, and the bedrooms. It allows you to adjust each room to your comfort level. The Kona Reef itself is a very friendly place. Both residents and visitors have been nice in our 3 visits, and since we come at about the same time every year, we have made friends. The bottom line is we have already booked to return!

Nice location BUT FILTHY!
A well-appointed condo with a great view but filthy. I spoke with the owner prior to signing up because of posted bad reviews on how dirty the condo was. He said he changed cleaning people, and everything was great now. Well, both bathrooms and the kitchen sink had mold. Pee down the front of the toilet. Shower doors are terribly stained. We spent $80 on cleaning products to clean the place when we arrived. FYI A 3rd floor condo and the elevator doesn't go all the way to the top so there are stairs. The complex itself is very nice with lots of parking.

Note
The apartment was nice and clean and comfortable. But needed a few minor repairs. Fan in master bath doesn’t work. Split unit in master bedroom is noisy. The icemaker had a towel stuffed in the shoot coming out. And was frozen. But we had plenty of ice. In the master bath toilet fills real slow. but we did wash the sheets and towels before we left.

Great location, condo has some issues
The condo needs updated. The carpet is old and faded. The showers were not cleaned well. Lots of soap scum left on glass doors. The AC unit in the master bedroom does not work properly. We never were able to make it comfortable in there. Otherwise, Great location. Lots of parking. Spacious and we had everything we needed.

Perfect home in heart of Kona
Home was well maintained and in perfect location to enjoy everything Kona and Big Island has to offer. We enjoyed sunset dinners in the balcony, relaxed in AC indoors in the afternoon, and walked to all the famous eateries and coffee shops in Kona. Everything else in Big Island was a day trip away. Overall we had a fun family vacation and I definitely recommend this place for a family of up to 6. Its in 3rd floor but there are elevators, but you still have to climb a few stairs and walk all the way to the other end of the building. That was not a problem for us. Plenty of parking in the building even for late night returns. Great place!

Kona wonder!
We stayed a week and couldn't have picked a better place to enjoy the Big Island. The unit is exceptionally clean and very well maintained. The patio view of the ocean is steps away and absolutely breathtaking. We will definitely opt to stay here again when we visit Kona. We ran into one problem involving the air conditioners that went unreported by the previous renters. Upon our notification to the owner, he made every effort to get it resolved quickly and made arrangements to bring in emergency room air conditioners until the parts for the main air conditioner could arrive. This is the kind of owner you want to rent from! Note: Although there is an elevator available, this unit is on the top floor and the elevator stops a few steps below the walkway level. Might present a problem for someone wheelchair bound. Other than that you can't go wrong with this rental!

I have stayed in this condo before and love it. This time the cleaners had not cleaned very well. The dust under the bed in the ensuite bedroom hung from the bed frame to the floor. I have asthma and couldn't sleep in the bedroom. The bathtub drain drained very slowly. We called the number given us and someone came out, but didn't fix the drain in the bathtub. I love the condo and would stay there again. I recommend it to anyone else looking for a great place that is close to town and has and incredible view.

We watched spinner dolphins go by every day, colorful fish in the waves, boogie boarders and surfers. Very short walk into town for restaurants and shopping. The unit is clean, quiet, and comfortable. It is well stocked with all your beach visiting needs. Although comfortable, it is in need of some attention and upgrading. We would definitely stay here again.

The property is located within walking distance to shopping, restaurants and nightlife. The condo was well stocked with pool and beach accessories and being right on the beach makes for spectacular views. We had a minor maintenance issue that was handled within an hour. Our only big issue was the lack of cleanliness of the unit. Pop cans from prior guests left under the table in one bedroom, screens in the bath have not been cleaned in ages (covered with dust/lint). A good deep cleaning would make the unit spectacular.
