Our family stayed here for 2 weeks and it was fantastic!! The location and views were breathtaking! The hosts, manager and cleaners were wonderful and easy to contact. The condo had everything we could’ve asked for in terms of supplies (beach gear and household needs). We would recommend this place to anyone!! Can’t wait to go back!

Beautifully furnished unit with everything you need to cook and have a comfortable stay. There’s a bit of noise from the nearby road/park so I’d recommend bringing ear plugs if you want to sleep with doors open but we just closed the doors and it was no problem. I would definitely stay again!

Great view of ocean, which we were hoping for. Beach was closed much of our stay due to the wild weather. Kona storm caused damage and any cancellations of our planned activists. The view from this property helped. Saw whales in distance. Even with all the closures of beaches, State parks, etc we still had a wonderful time and will be back!

The Condo was very well appointed. The kitchen even had good knives. It is right across the street from the beach, which is great. The only negative is the street noise. It usually quieted down overnight. The location is very convenient near restaurants and shops but not right in the middle of them. We appreciated all the stuff in the beach closet. Keawakapu beach, about a mile south of the Condo was my favorite: sandy level bottom, snorkeling at the north end, little fun waves in the middle, easy parking.

We had an excellent stay at this property! The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you will need. The beach pantry is very generously loaded with chair, umbrellas, coolers, etc. it came in handy for all the beach days. The location is prime, walking distance to Kam 2 and 3! The accommodations had plenty supplies. We enjoyed the views on the lanai and had a very comfortable stay. The owners had excellent communication and provided awesome recommendations prior to the stay. I’d definitely stay here again!! Thank you!

Great stay

We had a great stay, everything was comfortable and accessible. The location is great and there is good people watching from the balcony. Beds were comfy and good light blocking/sound makers available to lessen street noise. The condo did get hot in the afternoon and early evening, but we were usually out exploring during that time.
