Very spacious - bigger than expected! Pool was great, although busy at times. Grills were nice. Road noise was only negative but after about 11pm it quieted down.
This place was beautiful and conveniently located. There was no AC so it stayed pretty hot inside but overall it was wonderful and we would stay here again.
This property was amazing to stay at! The property managers were great at requests - helpful and kind about it. The townhouse itself was great. We Alaskans really appreciated the air conditioning in many of the rooms. There were 6 of us staying there and we were quite comfortable. We also enjoyed that it was close to the pool.
This was a wonderful choice for our stay. There was plenty of space for our group of eight. It was a close walk to a beach and snorkeling area. Also a close drive to area, restaurants, and attractions. The grounds were well kept. Plenty of parking. Very nice pool.
The whole rental process was easy and there was good communication.
We loved this place, it was spacious, clean and full of character. The huge lanai was a real highlight, with fly screens all around to keep the bugs out. It easily accommodated our group of 4 adults and 3 kids and the outstanding communication from property management made our stay really easy. The grounds of the resort were very spacious too, the kids loved the pool. As other reviewers have mentioned, worth noting there is no aircon and no lift for those who need their creature comforts, but we knew that before booking. There were lots of fans around to keep us comfortable so this wasnât an issue for our group at all.
Home was as advertisedâa lot of space, nice furniture, and all the kitchen appliances we needed. The open screen patios, numerous windows, ceiling and stand-up fans helped keep us sufficiently cool day and night. And Management was great in guiding us around an issueâthe dryer stopped working, a new dryer was ordered, and we were able to use the lanai placed under ceiling fans and stand-up fans to dry our clothes. A good location is one that can meet your needs even when something goes wrong. Highly recommend this location.

Staying at Kona Surf & Racquet with Knutson was a positive experience. The home was warm and welcoming, and it was as described. The kitchen was decently stocked and the rooms were pleasant. There was plenty of outdoor space on the lanai. Most importantly, Knutson's team was very responsive and helpful when we had questions and needs. Thank you for making our stay a good one.

We really enjoyed our time in this condo. There were 7 of us plus another 5 in another condo and we all had plenty of space when we gathered together. The balcony is completely screened in which is great since we needed outdoor air without a/c inside. (It was warm even in February!) The kitchen was stocked with the items we needed to make meals. Great location! Property manager is excellent and communicated frequently to ensure a pleasant stay.
We stayed here with four adults and three children (ages 3,5,6). The place was plenty spacious and the three bathrooms made getting ready so efficient. The lanai was large and beautiful!
Notes to those with small children: the upstairs has a bed next to a half wall. Should a child be playing on the bed, they could definitely fall. We didnât let the kids up there without direct supervision. We also received a noise complaint from the downstairs neighbors during the day. Our kids were not shouting but were excited and running from room to room despite our constant reminders to walk. That was a bit stressful and maybe the host should consider only renting to families with older children if this type of noise is unacceptable.

Our stay with Knutson at the Racquet Club was fantastic! The list of positive things is long: the location is great (walk to beach in three minutes, close to snorkel beach and Magic Sands), place itself has lots of comfy beds, lots of room, great lanai in the trees, shopping nearby, and management was very responsive and communicative (they were in such good communication that we never had to ask for anything - information was all sent before needing to ask; reminders, codes, etc.). In other reviews there were notes about the highway noise and heat. It is true that it is right by the road, but we didn't find it that loud (I am a light sleeper and with ear plugs I was fine). Also on the heat, it was 83 degrees on our trip and there are at least two fans in every room - an overhead and stand up - and when we had them on, the temperature was perfect.So all in all, it was a fantastic place and it was a big part of what made our trip so good.Thanks Knutson!

I really canât say enough good things about our experience!! Reserving was easy, check in was easy because of the details given by Knutsonâs folks. I received a couple of texts after we arrived to see how we were doing and if we needed anything, which was nice. The place was gorgeous, spacious, well-stocked, and easy to access. It was a bit too close to Aliâi Road, but when youâre exhausted from exploring the island all day, traffic noise is a minor thing. We would have liked to get a place with an ocean view, but Iâll know how to reserve that next time. We appreciated the beach items from the rental, even the binocs! I would recommend folks pack 2-3 canvas tote bags for when you go shopping, because Hawaiâi is about 99% plastic bag free! Yay!! Oh, and maybe bring/provide a couple flashlights to go watch turtles at night. We really appreciated all the accommodations of Knutson and the homeowner. Mahalo and a hui hou, ohana, 🌺🌸🌻aloha 🌺🌸🌻

The condo was just as you see in the pictures. It was clean, spacious and well maintained. There were six adults in our party and everyone had comfortable beds to sleep in! Knutson & Associates kept us well informed and checked if we needed anything or how they could make our stay better! Close to Keauhou Shopping Center and 15 minutes to Kona town. Would definitely stay here again.

They were not friendly - they reviewed us bad for laundry which was already done well - house wasnât even damaged and they falsely claimed all of that - I wonât recommend .
Everything was perfect but we were disappointed in the beach. We just traveled to other beaches. Loved the keyless entry which made it easy for everyone to come and go. Did not like the big black ants in the loft. Yes we would use Virbo again. Thank you
We really liked the condo, very spacious and comfortable. We found everything we needed to prepare most of our own food.
The only negatives were: The close proximity to a main road. The noise really picked up about 5:30 am. and continued all day.
We had at least a couple of large cockroaches every day, and a few small ones. Maybe fumigatation would help?

This location is one of the best we've ever stayed! Everything you need and so close to all the fun! It was an immaculately clean home with the best setup. We had 6 people and it was perfect.
Large home with lots of space to spread out. Biggest downfall and potentially affect our rebooking- NO A/C. The room with the twin beds was unbearable during the day, even with the fans going. The entire house was extremely hot during the day, luckily for us we spent days at the beach. At night it did cool enough to sleep comfortably for the most part. One person in our group had to use the uncomfortable pullout bed becuse the room was much too hot to use. Pool and grill area were fantastic! The grounds were clean and kept up very well. Check-in was a breeze. We were on the 3rd floor, no elevator FYI. Lots of visitor parking for the 2nd vehicle if needed. The house and grounds were great, very lovely. No ac eas a major hiccup for us.

To start off we were able to get in earlier than the check in time after a quicl text asking of we could. We had 7 people in total, Mom, Dad, myself, wife, sister in law and two kids. Plenty of room for everyone while we were in the condo. I was born in Hawaii and have been back many times since i moved away. The location is great for ceuising down Alii drive and checking out the beaches. It is also right below the Keahou shopping center for dining and any store items you may need. It is a quick run to the main highway to get into kailua or head down south. There qere a few beach going items like a cooler bag and some chairs that made our beach trips more enjoyable. Kitchen was pretty wel stocked for cooking our own food. The kitchen knives needed sharpened but there were stones to do that. The grounds were nice and clean. There was an outside bbq area that we used a few nights. Our kids are 10 and 13 and they enjoyed the pool one evening. The pool started at 1 foot and went to 8ft or so. It is a goood pool for everyone from babies to adults.
Pros
Back patio
Pool (with deep end our 12 y/o liked)
Kitchen
Cons
Cockroaches!!!! In light fixtures crawling up my 8 year old nieces legs when she sat in coach
