This was such a great place to stay! The location is in the heart of it all. Great restaurants and barâs within walking distance! I also loved the tranquility of the pool. So relaxing and I even fell asleep.
Our recent stay was nothing short of disappointing and unacceptable. My partner and I booked this unit for what was meant to be a special vacation, our first together. However, upon arrival around 8pm after a long day of travel, we were met with conditions that left us shocked and deeply dissatisfied.Firstly, the unit was plagued by a pervasive, unpleasant odor that permeated every corner. The tap water, which we expected to use for basic necessities, had a foul smell and was undrinkable. This made it impossible for us to even brush our teeth comfortably. Adding to our dismay, both refrigerators contained leftover food, clearly indicating a lack of proper cleaning and maintenance.Moreover, the listing advertised the unit as a condo, but to our dismay, it was actually part of the Kona Islander Innâa motel and a crucial detail that was misleadingly omitted. This discovery was not only surprising but significantly impacted our expectations and overall experience.Confronted with these intolerable conditions, we made the difficult decision to vacate the property the following morning and secure alternative accommodations at a hotel. As such, we are requesting a full refund to reflect the complete lack of hospitality and disregard for basic standards of cleanliness and transparency
Location was excellent. Within walking distance to ABC stores, restaurants/bars and the ocean/beach. Room was great. Very spacious, clean, and had AC!Will definitely stay here again!
Overall, everything was amazing. The host were so amazing. They let us check in early. The room was at an amazing location right across the street from the beach. It was pretty hard to access the water there, but the view was incredible. It was super close to everything. Would definitely recommend staying here. Definitely will be coming back.
The unit had everything for our stay. The location is great-- close to shopping, restaurants and best of all, the ocean is right across the street! Would definitely stay again.
Great spot a little dated close to everything walked right across the street to the ocean. It suited us just to sleep shower and even cook food and somebody mustâve left behind Band-Aids and peroxide. I was so glad to find that because I fell in the typos and was able to clean it and have a Band-Aid. Comfortable for two people we were able to buy food and cook her own meals, which made it a little more cost-effective for our vacation to enjoy other things. If I ever come back again, I would stay here.
This place was better than advertised. Right in the heart of Kona. Amazing restaurants within walking distance. Fun shops and things to do. You can hear the ocean from the patio. The management/owners were so great. Bed was comfortable and everything was clean. We would stay here again if we ever came back. 100%
Perfect stay for my husband and I. Location couldnât have been better. Ocean directly across the street. Restaurants, bars, ABC store all in walking distance.
Property included extras that we were pleased to have (boogie boards, umbrella, snorkel gear). Owner easy to reach and very communicative. Looking forward to staying here again
My sister and I stayed in the Kona Islander Inn Condos before. But it was really nice to be on the ground floor. Great view of the beach and waves across the street. The street is a busy one, a main street so if car noise bothers you, you need one without a view. We loved the patio with bushes for privacy yet we could see over them in the higher patio chairs. It was easy to walk to any place to eat, The market a few blocks down,
I had a nice stay here. The apt. had everything I needed including snorkel gear that I was planning to rent but didn't need to because there was some available in the closet. The bed was very comfortable. One of the outlets in the kitchen didn't work but besides that everything was good.
This property was bright, clean and had all the stuff you would need for a great vacation, beach towels and chairs, boogie boards, dishes, etc. It was in the middle of the strip, across from the beach. Tons of shops and restaurants near by. Parking was tight if you came home too late, but there was street parking within 5 min. Our friends had rented another condo in the same building, but ours was heads and tails much better that theirs, from cleanliness to communication with the host. Our shower head holder had broken with the previous guest, and the owner had his maintenance man come fix it with in 24 hrs. Being on the strip, there was traffic noise during the day, but I would certainly stay there again.
