Ocean View Condo in Center of Kailua Kona

My airconditioned condo is located a block from the Ocean and gets cool ocean breezes during the day and has a great Ocean View.

It is located in the center of town and is within walking distance of shops, restaurants and a farmers market where you can buy fresh fruits and vegetables.

The Lanai faces west so you can enjoy the sunsets every evening.

The condo sleeps 3 comfortably. There is a queen-sized sized bed in the bedroom and sofa bed in the living room.

We enjoyed our stay. The owner, Laurence, welcomed us with a bowl of fruit from his garden. The condo is walking distance to many restaurants and shops. There were beach chairs and beach towels available for our use. The view from the balcony is beautiful and gives you a good sunset view.

Such a perfect little condo with an incredible view
We loved our stay because the host provided very clear communication and the condo was organized, clean, and had everything you need in the kitchen to cook at home. It was set up perfectly for our 3 person family and had beach chairs and a cooler, etc to make beach days a breeze. It's a great location so you can walk to the water, pier and restaurants. Check the guest book for recommendations!

Perfect base for Big Island adventure
This suite was a perfect base for our Big Island adventure. Very clean and comfortable with all the conveniences needed, including kitchen wares, food containers and wrap for picnics, snorkeling and beach gear (including 2 coolers), extra towels and sheets, extra toiletries, and AC for humid nights. We had a small issue with the shower not draining the first day, but Laury called a plumber in ASAP to fix it and even brought us a bottle of wine for our troubles! He is a great host--super responsive. There's a good view of the ocean from the lanai and the suite is a 3-5 minute walk to the Kailua waterfront area with shops/restaurants/coffee/farmers market. Neighborhood was a bit noisy at night, but that was to be expected so close to downtown. The key operated elevator and locking metal screen door made us feel safe and secure. The parking is convenient, and there's really easy vehicle access on/off the main road. Very close to Safeway, Walmart, and other shops too, which was handy for buying groceries and other essentials. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect get-a-way in Kona
The host, Laury was so easy to communicate with prior the start of our vacation and during the checkin process. Laury left us fresh fruit from his garden. Bonus touch. Condo is exactly as described. Very comfortable and clean with all kitchen amenities needed. Lots of beach stuff, snorkeling gear, ice chest, umbrella to use. We definitely used the beach stuff that came in handy. Location is key. Although, we had a rental car, we were able to walk to the local restaurant, bar and beach in Kona village. I definitely would recommend and stay again in Laury condo the next I travel to Kona. Thank you for hosting my family!

great location with an beautiful ocean view
Building is located in Kona downtown within walking distance from farmers market, stores, restaurants, etc. Though space is not very big, it was enough for three of us. There's a very nice ocean view, especially for watching sunsets. When we arrived, the place was very clean. Check in and checkout process is simple and we didn't have problems with going through it. There's one parking spot assigned to the apartment.

Great Location
This is in the heart of everything. Easy walking to food, shopping, beach. Pros: Clean, great location, great property manager, nice little pool area without a ton of people, nice view of ocean from lanai, strong Wi-Fi, quiet condo, dedicated parking spot Cons: you have to supply your own toilet paper and paper towels, there are no dish towels, laundry takes quarters to use, no A/C (although lots of great fans keep it comfortable if you aren’t heat sensitive), bright light from walkway so room isn’t dark at night. Those are things that I would have been more prepared for if I had known, but that being said I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Very nice CLEAN older, but upgraded, property

Hawaii
We only stayed here for four nights and then we are heading up to Another place further north. This was a great area the tradewinds made the place so cool. We actually got to watch that cruise ship come in and leave, from our balcony. Just a couple it shows in the bathroom with drainage. But everything else was wonderful and we really enjoyed our stay. Within walking distance to all the restaurants to small beaches to swim at, to the farmers market and you can catch the trolley to get around also. We've been coming to Hawaii for 35 years and this is the first time we've stayed down in this area. So glad we stayed here. Everyone was so friendly. Thank you very much

This place was amazing. Close to market, shops and the beach. Only small issue with the room not being cleaned, but that was corrected and the rest of our stay couldn’t have been better. I had to contact the host and he answered and got the problem fixed right away. I would definitely book here again if I make it back to Kona.

You Get What You Pay For
Overall our stay was just okay. There are a few things that need to be addressed. 1. My sister made arrangements to stay at this vacation rental in September 2021. When the airline changed our departure time to leave Hawaii from early afternoon to 10:05pm my sister reached out to the host to inquire about a later check out and even offering to pay for an extra day. The host replied that "it wouldn't be a problem" which we interpreted to mean we would be able to stay later (we have the communications to prove this). Unfortunately, when my sister reached out to the host again a few days prior to our trip to again confirm about late check out the host responded that we needed to check out at 11:00 and suggested we hang out in a nearby park for the 8+ hours we had before returning our rental car to the airport. Really! We were willing to pay for an extra day which we had requested several months prior. 2. There was only one roll of toilet paper in the condo. We purchased a 4 pack to last the duration of our stay. 3. The roach motels scattered throughout the condo. 4. The condo is located between two very loud thoroughfares (Kuakini and Ali'i). Between the traffic, car horns, people yelling...it was loud no matter what time of day/night. 5. The toilet kept running when it was flushed. We had to jiggle the handle to get it to stop. 6. The online listing stated there was a king-sized bed and a pull out couch. The bed was only a queen and the thin mattress on the pullout was horrible. Again...overall the stay was just okay. The close proximity to downtown Kona made it easy to walk to shops and dining.

Convenient location, cozy accommodations
Great condo, photos show what you have. The bed was very comfortable. The owner was very easy to reach and provided answers to questions very quickly. Convenient parking, love that you must use key to access elevator. Pool is very small, but there are several beaches within a short walk. Short walk to main restaurants and shops. A lovely trip, can't wait to return!

Easy check in with very clear directions from owner! Condo was well equipped, clean and in a perfect location! Walking distance (10-15 min tops) to great shops, restaurants and Kona pier if looking for day cruise or fishing trips. We also rented car and were within 2-2.5 hr drive to Hilo, waterfalls and Volcano National park if you want to enjoy the rest of beauty of the island. Owners very accommodating and responsive. Would 100% recommend to friends and family and looking forward to our next trip to the big island!

Condo was only a block from the ocean offering a safe condo with a nice view of the beach. We liked the fact that you needed to use a key to get the elevator to work. Clean and nicely furnished. The Helo-on bus system was a nice way to get around if you don’t have a car. The patio screen door needs to work smoother though.
