This was by far the best condo we have EVER stayed in. The owners provided all the necessary information a few weeks prior to the trip and then contacted us a couple of days before arrival to make sure we had all the information we needed. Directions were easy to follow and the coded lockbox ensured it was easy to get in and we never locked ourselves out. The condo itself was beautifully constructed, furnished and decorated, with pictures and art work that gave it a warm, welcoming feel. Although the entire condo was woonderful, the bathrooms deserve special mention. Spacious layouts, beutiful tile work and the rolled river rock floors int he showers are a great touch!
The kitchen was a delight with Island-themed dishes and every cooking utensil imaginable. We hosted a number of dinner parties for local friends and all were very impressed with how at home they felt there. They were also envious of the spectacular sunsets they enjoyed from the dining room and the lanai. The condo stayed pleasantly cool with its' East to West exposure capturing breezes off the ocean ( I swear best location in the whole complex). In the mornings we watched whales breaching and every evening we watched the sunset from the lanai before firing up the bar-b-que for dinner. Although we were on vacation, we have 24/7 type jobs so the wireless connectivity allowed us to check in and avert an insurmountable amount of e-mails upon our return to reality.
The resort property had two lovely pools, three hot tubs, two tennis courts, and a small workout facility. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The grocery and drug stores were a five minute walk and Kahalu'u Beach with its' friendly fish and abundance of sea turtles was a 10 minute walk. Kona town is a 10 minute drive. Despite the convenient location, the condo was incredibly quiet with no noise from Ali'i Drive.
There is nothing I would change about this condo or the location. It was perfect! More...

This condo is in a prime location right off the
highway and right near the market. The ocean view
from the lanai is just fabulous. We felt at home the
whole week we were there and everything you need is
there including beach and pool toys, cooking spices
and condiments, internet and entertainment.

The condo is very well kept and very comfortable. We
had a great time and would come back any time! We
loved the big island. There is sooooo much to do.

Thanks for a lovely stay!! Mahalo! More...

This condo was absolutely fantastic! We stayed for about a week and it truly felt like home. Having the "extras" like beach towels, sand mats, ice chests etc really made life easier. The condo was in wonderful condition, and it's so large and spacious. We have stayed at this complex many times before and this unit was by far the best. We will definitely be back! More...

We had an absolutely fabulous week in this condo! It was clean, decorated very nicely, peaceful, and quiet. It was a joy to wake up in the morning, sit outside drinking our coffee, and look out towards the water. After spending a week in a hotel on Oahu, this was a much welcomed change of pace. My mother fell in love with the floorplan and is still asking to this day when we are going back! There is a grocery store close by and it is convenient to just about all the activities available on the Big Island. We would definitely recommend a stay here! More...

We had a great week in Kona with two small children. The unit was
spacious and roomy with a full kitchen to cater to most family needs.
Conveniently located close to the gate of the complex, but no noise of
traffic. The sunset from the Lanai is quite a sight, and makes you feel
as though you own a piece of paradise, for a modest price. Keauhou is
a nice quiet location, just the right distance from Kailua so that you
don't feel too secluded, but have the luxury of silence at night at the
same time. Groceries and daily necessities are just across the street
at the Keauhou Shopping center, where you can just about find
anything you may want during a one week vacation. A 10 minute jog
down to the beach is great getting down, but the hill climb up can be
a challenge if you jog too far down Ali'i drive. Overall, it's good fun for
the kids and family. More...
