Ideal condo in Kona

Overall rating:
Frank & Sharon from Vancouver on 05/05/2013 said:

“ This was our second stay Villa 1-202 at the Beach Villas at Kahaluu. The location is ideal as it is right across the street from an excellent snorkeling beach, close to the KTa for groceries, and a 10 minute drive into Kona. The condo is beautifully furnished and has everything you need. The lanai is perfect for watching the sunset! We've been to a number of Hawaiian islands, and this is the best condo we have stayed at! We look forward to staying here again! ”

“ Our week long stay was great! The weather co-operated:). The accommodations at the Condo was fabulous. One does not need to bring any furnishings, linens, kitchen ware or water toys! all provided. Do bring your swimming suits-the water is so nice and the pool area has everything to relax with. The view is so great, one does not want to leave; but seeing the sights are worth the traveling. Better book early, come often, and stay long:). ”

Mollie from Seattle on 02/09/2013 said:

“ If you want to snorkel, this is an great choice for your visit to Kona. The snorkeling at Kahaluu Beach is fantastic for any skill level- we saw tons of fish and a few turtles. Lots of beach and snorkel equipment in the condo. The condo is beautiful with a view of the beach and palm trees from the lanai. The beds are comfortable and it was pretty quiet - we were there Mon-Wed. My family is already talking about a return visit to Kahaluu Beach Villas. ”

Absolutely perfect for snorkeling and very close to boogie board

Overall rating:
Betty from South Lake Tahoe, CA on 07/11/2012 said:

“ This condo was very nice and well appointed. Comfy beds were a plus as beds at other places we have stayed left much to be desired! Pop across the street and you are at one of the best snorkeling beaches on the Big Island. Lots of Sea Turtles! 1 mile north is Magic Sands Beach, where you can enjoy great Boogie Boarding (the surf varies of course), swimming, and sun. Around the corner to the south about 3/4 mile is a shopping center with groceries, restaurants, shops and a movie theater. It was not our goal on this trip to hang out in town. The beach, snorkeling and swimming was our first priority and this place is perfect! Pool and BBQ area was very nice. If I had any complaints at all, it would be the property across the street, the Outrigger. They have some sort of generators or something that regularly ,swoosh! swoosh!, while not bothersome during the day at night it drove me crazy!. simple solution...when making your reservation do take advantage of the a/C. close up the unit at night and you wont hear a thing! Very glad we opted for a/C. Ps The food at the Outrigger in the fancy restaurant was the worst meal I've ever had. Where's Gordon Ramsey when you need him! I hear the food at the Bar/Lounge is good but it was closed when we were there. All in all, we were very pleased with this Unit and will stay here again if we make it back to the Big Island! Please note: The Outrigger is not affiliated with the lovely Beach Villas. ”

Really nice stay!

Overall rating:
Valerie from Rural, Wisconsin on 05/24/2012 said:

“ Our stay at the condo was really nice! The lanai overlooks the pool one story down. The condo is very nicely decorated and very comfortable. We found everything in the kitchen we needed. We ate breakfast on the lanai each morning - our only meal there as we were out during the day and evening. The condo is right across the street from Kahalu'u beach that has beautiful sunsets. It can be busy at times, but the water is warm and there are turtles and colorful tropical fish that swim in the area. We really liked our stay - a nice large TV in the living room/kitchen area. 2 nice bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with large showers. The beds were very comfortable. There are full roman shades in the master bedroom so you can sleep comfortably in the dark (but you won't want to too long)! We did a swim with dolphin tour (Sunlight on Water with Captain "China" Mike) - it was great! He would go ahead of the pod so they would come towards us as we snorkeled. We would get on the boat about 5-6 times to keep up with the dolphins. It was amazing! One of the stops - there 2 manta rays which stopped and circled under us. Just loved it! At Keauhou Shopping Center: KTa Super Stores - very nice store - has a great selection of anything you want - wine, cheese, chocolate...and the rest! We ate dinner at Kenichi Pacific at the same shopping center. It was wonderful! I loved everything I ate (sushi)! We visited Humpy's ale House for afternoon beers and appetizers of boiled shrimp and calamari. We went to Island Lava Java for an afternoon Lava Java Shake - had to go back a 2nd time for another shake and dinner - a spicy shrimp and penne pasta - it was really good! I hope to get back to the Big Island soon - and will definitely look to this condo to stay in. Loved it! ”

“ Great location! Right across the street from beach and snorkeling. Condo supplied all beach/snorkel gear. Kids loved shallow calm waters to look at fish and crabs. We even saw a few turtles. Kids also enjoyed the pool when they didnt want to get sandy. You can catch the trolley at the Outrigger and go to Kona's Farmers Market and walk around Village. Very convenient spot. We loved everything about our trip! ”

TomT from Richland, WA on 09/23/2011 said:

“ A well equipped condo across the street from a premier snorkeling location for a reasonable price and the easiest check-in process ever? 5 stars across the board. We loved it the same reasons so many others have in other reviews but I would like to add the component of connection to island life. From the lanai (drinking our Kona coffee of course), the school bus came, the park guy with his Hawaiian music station on unlocking the park, the fresh ahi, veggies, and yakisoba I made for a dinner, and the non-tourist restaurants all made for great experience. We are not big-time resort people and this was perfect for us. Much thanks to Chuck and his timely emails! ...Tom ”

Excellent stay at unit 1-202

Manishee from San Jose on 07/16/2011 said:

“ Beautiful, well appointed and very clean unit with a great view of Kahaluu beach. The villa has all the amenities needed for a convenient and comfortable stay. Opting for air-conditioning is a very good idea. Our only issue was that there were a lot of mosquitoes the night we checked in and we got bitten. After an evening and night of running the aC and being extremely careful about not leaving the lanai door open even for a moment, rest of our stay was comfortable. We absolutely enjoyed having breakfast in the lanai (with a fan!) and walking to snorkel at the Kahaluu beach. Location is convenient to explore the Kona region and shop at alii Drive. Overall very good experience. ”

Maggeena from Seattle on 12/16/2010 said:

“ We enjoyed three nights and were so pleased with everything. The condo was very clean, the beds were extremely comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked (hello, salad spinner!) and there were several extras which made us feel like we were staying at a good friend's home, such as beach and snorkel gear, and tips on nearby activities and restaurants. The location right across from Kahaluu Beach Park was fantastic- we were able to snorkel and surf right outside our door, and we were only minutes from ocean tours like Seqwest, Fairwinds, and the Canue Club, as well as fun boogie-boarding at Magic Sands beach. The restaurants in downtown Kona were easily accessible and the condo was a great home base for exploring the coffee fams up in Captain Cook. We would love to return to the Big Island and stay here again! ”

“ The condo "Villa 1-202" was perfect from the start. Chuck was very courteous and was extremely accommodating of our needs (since we were traveling with an infant and toddler). The condo had everything we could ask for: gorgeous views, all necessary amenities, snorkel gear, etc... Grocery store and plenty restaurants within walking distance (although we barbecued at poolside almost daily). We spent each morning snorkeling with turtles across the street, and the rest of the day in the infinity pool... Would definitely recommend this condo to our friends and family! Will probably stay in this condo again! ”

“ We chose this place because it was across the street from a beach known for good snorkeling & surfing plus a very short way from another beach known for good boogie boarding. In addition to that we found that this condo was spacious and very well equipped. The fact that this condo is reasonably priced, has great sunsets enjoyable from the balcony and a grocery store down the road made it a perfect experience. ”

InfrequentHawaiiTraveler from Oakland, CA on 05/06/2010 said:

“ My family and I stayed at this property for two nights in May 2010. The condo was easy to find and conveniently located in Kona. The interior is absolutely beautiful - very high end bathrooms, a lovely kitchen, great flat screen TV, and an amazing Lanai for dining with views of the pool and ocean. The only snag we ran into was that the pool was closed for renovations. Our only other objection was the hefty cleaning fee because we only stayed two nights, but it was great to have free parking and the rental service was a pleasure to deal with. ”

Kahaluu Beach Condo

Overall rating:
MtnViewGirl from Mountain View, CA on 03/25/2010 said:

“ This was our 5th visit to The Big Island. We were looking for a place close to Kahaluu Beach so we could snorkel every day at our leisure. Well, being right across the street from it was fantastic! Making the reservation, getting the confirmation and information was very easy and thorough. They made sure a contact name and number was available to us and easy to find in case we had any questions or needed/wanted anything. The Owner had put together a book of restaurants/menues, beaches, activities, services and maps in case you needed additional help in finding your way around the island. We had t.v.s, internet, phones, beach toys and chairs. I think we had it all. The decor of the condo was beautiful, very tasteful. It was extremely clean, bright and beyond welcoming. It had everything we needed in the kitchen to make us feel like we were in our own home. Having a washer and dryer made our stay easier. The bed and furniture were comfortable,the layout perfect, the view was fantastic. The parking lot didn't seem very full and we felt like we had a lot of privacy. There was an outdoor shower to wash off any sand that was brought back from the beach and that helped us keep the condo, bathing suits and beach toys clean. The pool and jacuzzi were refreshing during the day and also a wonderful way to end the day. We liked everything about this condo. We look forward to returning to Hawaii and the Beach Villas at Kahaluu. ”

moselle from Boulder Colorado on 11/12/2009 said:

“ First off, Chuck was great to deal with. Super helpful and accomodating. We have been coming to the Island for 25 years now, usually once a year. This is one of the best places we have stayed. It is well equipt, a great location, and has a nice pool. There are nice touches like wireless available (not mentioned in the condo description), and blackout curtains in the bedroom (great for coming from the mainland and jetlagging 4 hours ahead). I cook a lot with local ingredients not available to me in Colorado and this kitchen was pretty well equipt. A better set of knives would be my one suggestion the light cheap ones provided are pretty dangerous cutting the thick Island friut and veggies. I would like if you would have provided a few basic food staples like vinegar, sugar, mustard, ketsup, ect. I have stayed in some places where the stapes are all stored in the refrigerator door with a note to please replace something if you use it up. It was fun to use the items and see what others bought and found useful. It was nice that you provided dish soap. It really peves me when I rent a condo and there is nothing provided in the kitchen so, at least there was soap. The only other small 'problems' I had with the condo was the shower head. Neither my husband or I liked it. Also, the fitted bed sheet was too small for the bed and kept creeping off at night, it was very annoying. All-in-all it was a great stay. We'll keep you on our list of condos to check availbilty on our next visit. Thanks, Mo McKenna. ”

“ It is a room that was cleanly and functionally settled though is not wide. The dining table is only Lanai, and the room is a counter of kitchen. Lanai can eat while seeing the tree of the coconut on the beach very comfortably. It is near the beach or more and is convenient though has used next Kahaluu Bay Villas before. The sound of the car is somewhat anxious in the mastering bed room on the road side. Sunset was not able to be seen from the room of the second floor that had been used in the coconut tree. ”

Big Island Snorkeler from Minneapolis, MN on 09/17/2009 said:

“ Location is right across the street from Kahaluu beach, as promised. The road noise and evening beach party noise is noticeable, but did not bother us. The building has its own freshwater shower outside to rinse off you and your gear. The service for getting booked and arrival is excellent-very professional. The condo is attractive inside and out, with a good set of kitchen amenities. Some nice extras were provided, such as boogie boards, beach mats, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. The beds were very comfortable. Be aware that only one small set of shampoo and lotion is provided-when it is gone, you must buy your own. It seemed like a funny thing to cheap out on when so much else is provided. Overall this was a lovely condo for a fair price. We will definitely choose to stay there again. ”

DAC from Chicago Suburbs, Illinois on 08/13/2009 said:

“ The condo was great! It definitely exceeded our expections! We had a great view of Kahaluu Beach Park from the lanai. We took the short walk across the street every morning to snorkel before the beach got too crowded. The condo provided beach towels, boogie boards, and beach mats. Snorkel equipment can be rented at the beach. As others have mentioned, a car is necessary to get to other beaches, shopping and restaurants, but it's all conveniently located. The unit was exceptionally clean and provided us with all the amenities of a home away from home. The kitchen cabinets were well stocked with dinnerware, glassware, cooking utensils and flatware. We thought that there was more than enough for a family of 4 to use each day. The only items we purchased was food! We highly recommend this condo! It made our vacation even more relaxing and enjoyable. ”

SFVoyager from San Francisco, California on 07/02/2009 said:

“ I chose these Beach Villas based on the previous reviews. I thought they were accurate and right on. The condo itself was a two bedroom, two bath unit. We only used one bedroom, but them's the breaks. They were clean. The view was nice (although it did overlook a road, the pictures accurately showed it). And the unit was modern. When we ran out of shampoo, they let them for us. My one warning to folks would be that there is no elevator. If you pack lightly, this isn't a big deal. We didn't so we had to lug our stuff. Still, it was a small thing. I jumped into the pool only once -- who wants a pool when you have a great snorkeling spot across the street? You definitely would want a car if you stayed here. We cooked a lot. Also, I HIGHLY recommend getting the optional air conditioning. Our stay would have been miserable without it. Have fun. ”

Anne from California and Texas on 06/06/2009 said:

“ This condo was wonderful - just like the pictures except for one thing...the view of the ocean was better than the pictures suggest! It was a great place to come back to in the evening or to lounge around during the day (including the nice pool). There was lots of beach gear (e.g., towels, cooler, chairs, mats) that made going to the beach more enjoyable. Aside from the good snorkeling beach right across the street, you will need a car to drive to other beaches or in to town. The drive to the Volcano Park took us about 2 hours and it's also a 30 minute drive north to the beaches of Mauna Kea and Hapuna. The condo was a great deal and well-situated to be close to various attractions. ”

“ Beautifully done condo, great location - we had a great time here, best VRBO we stayed in. My husband was bothered a bit by street noise at night - I was only bothered by him wanting to close the window rather than leave it open to the breeze. Location is super - right across the street from a super snorkeling beach for the whole family (easy for the kids to enjoy), and we loved being able to wander between beach and home. Condo had everything we wanted and more. Really remarkable paint job inside too - nicely done! Days on the beach followed by kids swimming in the pool while Dad grills dinner, eat dinner on our private lanai at sunset, and then veg in front of a movie on the flat screen. Very sweet life! Comfy beds, great showers, conveniences of home, no sign of pests. Didn't see much of other residents, but those we saw were friendly. Don't have a single negative thing to say about this property (and we did have a few about the other places we stayed!) ”

My Family Review

Overall rating:
Brenda Vieweg from Seattle, WA on 04/16/2009 said:

“ I found this property through an internet search, google. My husband and four teenagers stayed in one of your condos. 1st, our condo was the "perfect" location. We could not have been more perfectly placed. Georgeous. It is the perfect area for snorkeling. I would have changed a few things. Not having daily maid service convinced my husband and I to only take the children to places "with" daily maid service from now on. Cleaning up after the kids and picking up after my husband was not a vacation for me and was more stressful on my family. We did inquire about maid service and were told that it was not available daily. I wish there had been an outside shower. The beach across the street is out of this world wonderful. And, they have outdoor showers. But, when you walk across the street and up the walk you still have sand and salt in your shoes and beach bag. I hated cleaning up the salt and sand after my kids came up from the beach. I was trying to keep the condo clean. I was lucky that someone had told me about purchasing land's end water shoes prior to our trip. On the Big Island, they are a must have. That tip would be helpful to people, especially since you all don't have a lot of shopping centers. I think that pre-arranged delivery service of fruit/breakfast sandwiches would be something some of your guests would appreciate. They had a sandwich truck on the beach for lunchtime but the food was not very good. Your Island has so much natural, wonderful food I would think that by ordering the night before someone could make a lot of money with deliveries. The only other issue we had was that our flight was delayed the morning we were due to check out and the property manager (via the maid) was not accomodating to allow us to pay to stay in our condo for a few more hours. Instead, we spent our final five hours in HI at the airport. My children still refer to those five hours as the longest of their life. Brenda Vieweg ”

Best Place to Stay

Erik from South Dakota on 04/16/2009 said:

“ We didn't want to spend the high prices for Hawaii hotels so we searched and found this condo. We were a little hesitent about getting a condo just because you never know what you're going to get even when you can view pictures. Well, we got everything we were promised and more! We couldn't stop talking about how great of a find this condo was. The private parking was perfect. We felt very safe and secure. The condo was as clean as could be. It felt very new with nice appliances (flat screen TV, Bose stereo, dishwasher, air conditioning, washer and dryer, etc.) and wonderful bathrooms (two of them). The master bedroom was wonderful and the regular bathroom was just as good with just a little less space. The livingroom furniture was comfortable. The balcony was so much fun. We spent a lot of time out around the table (under the fan) having meals or relaxing and watching the ocean. I will recommend this condo to everyone going to the Big Island. ”

Perfect Hawaiian Getaway

“ This condo far exceeded our expectations for the Kailua-Kona area. It has an awesome location, across from a renowned snorkeling and beginning surfing beach. Public transportation is readily available via a beach bus that will take you to other beaches, or to shop in Kona. Close to a shopping center for all of your basic needs. The condo itself is stylish, comfortable, beautifully maintained, and well-equipped. It was a real pleasure to cook and enjoy a relaxing dinner in the comfort of a lovely home-away-from-home. And the views were magnificent at sunset! The pool area is immaculate, and well planned for use by both children and adults. Our only concern during our stay was a bit of noise from the street traffic--though we really considered it minimal. We heartily recommend this villa unit, and consider it to be an exceptional value. We are definitely looking forward to our next stay! ”

Great beach condo

Overall rating:
kloire from Concord, NH on 04/02/2009 said:

“ This condo was a wonderful alternative to a hotel. The beach across the street was beautiful with outstanding snorkeling! We had two adults and a teenager so it was great to have two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The lanai was one of my favorite parts - we ate several meals out there - watching the ocean and the people at the beach. Sometimes eating out while on vacation gets tiring - it was great being able to cook in the kitchen and enjoy dinner in the condo. If we ever return to Kona we will most definitely come back to the same condo. The feeling of a home away from home was wonderful. Additionally the condo had many fantastic extras - such as some boogie boards, beach towels, dvd's, and guide books. The absolute ONLY complaint I have was the rusty/falling apart rack in the shower. However it seems pretty trivial when compared to all of the great points. I truly hope to return one day! ”

“ I was down in Kona for the Ironman World Championships in 2008 and stayed at this beautiful property. It was nice to be able to sit on the deck and overlook the ocean. the property was very clean and very convenient to all amenities. The beach across the way was excellent for snorlkelling and turtles!! The communication between the owners and myself were excellent and the arrival was very easy. Thankyou for the beuatiful stay and I will stay at this property on my next trip to Kona!! ”

“ This condo is just plain awesome. Starting with the interior that is well-decorated, spacious rooms, gorgeous ocean view (dining table is on the ocean-facing lanai). Location is wonderful - great snorkeling just across the road and short drive to anywhere you want. Warning: this condo spoiled me so much that I find it very hard to find vacation rentals for my other trips! The price is right and Chuck is a great person to deal with - he was able to accomodate all my requests. Next time I am on the Big Island I will definitely stay here. ”

Incredible location, super clean, spacious

Chehalumche from Santa Cruz, CA on 04/01/2009 said:

“ For convenience to Keahou attractions, this is a great location. It really is right across the street from Kahaluu beach, which has the best easily accessible snorkeling on the island. There are amazing archaeological sites a short walk away (including several major heiau now being restored), the hotel across the street has good food, shoreside dining and live entertainment, and you can get surfing lessons just down the street. The condo is large, very clean and modern with a clothes washer and dryer (very convenient), has access to a swimming pool you'll probably never use since the snorkeling is so great, a well-equipped kitchen, a lanai, and little extras like snorkeling gear. I know it sounds like they paid me to say all this, but they didn't and I really loved this place. ”
