This is a wonderful condo. I wish I lived here! You cannot get more ocean-front without being in the ocean. Our evenings were spent watching the sunset, looking at the stars and listening to the waves. We never ate out at night, we either cooked or got take-out as we couldn't imagine having a better view. There is a wet bar on the lanai, too, so that was nice! The floor plan is perfect. Spacious, with an open kitchen that was beautiful and has everything you could ever need. Large tile runs throughout the condo and keeps it nice and cool. The furnishings were very nice as well. The master bedroom is large with a very nice bathroom (awesome shower with 2 showerheads). The 2nd bedroom good-sized too. (There is also a pull-out bed in living room) It is a very quiet area, so with the windows open, you could hear the waves at night. Couple that with a very comfortable bed made for some of the best sleep we have ever had. We opted not to use the a/c, and with the windows and lanai open, there was a wonderful breeze. At night, it was cool and very comfortable. During the day, it was warm, but not bad at all. None of us minded, we weren't in Hawaii to be in a/c the whole time. The furnishings were very nice. There is a kid-friendly pool and adults-only pool on the property. As we only went to the kid-friendly one, I can tell you it was very nice and never crowded. The grounds were very well maintained. There is a grill very close to the condo as well. It really was perfect and it felt like you were coming home when you came back to the condo. The next time we come to the big island, we will stay here.

Holiday at Kona

We stayed at this complex years ago and found this unit online. The price was right and the unit very nice. The lanai was great. The May weather was great & w/ fans, no A/C was desired. There were some beach chairs and stuff to borrow & we left the boogie board we bought. The kitchen was well outfitted, although we brought a few sharp knives for cooking. If you kitchen clean with a cloth, not sponge, bring one with you. There's a coffee maker that needs #4 filters. They need a few more smaller acrylic glasses for pool/small kid use, but plastic cups can be bought at the store too. There's a nice gas bbq and grassy area with table/chairs not too far away for those eat-in days.
The tennis courts are in good shape. The pools are never busy, but the pool nazi leaves you in the dark without warning after posted hours.
There's no beach right there, but not too bad a drive. Washer/dryer is helpful for beach towels.
We'll be here next time we're in HI!

We spent a wonderful few days and had a great time. This is
the first time that we stayed in a vacation rental home instead of a hotel -- and it was perfect.The condo is closer to the sea then any hotel.

We stayed in unit 1801 which we highly recommend. The ocean front lani was fabulous. The condo was spacious and very nicely furnished. There was even beach and snorkel equipment for use. If we are able to return to Kona we would absolutely try to get this unit.

We loved the condo! The kitchen was very modern with beautiful granite counter tops, the master suite was great with a really nice shower. The lanai was wonderful. We loved to sit and admire the beautiful Kona sunsets and unbelievable crashing waves. The complex is very quiet and relaxing. We just loved it!!

Aloha
The condo is beautiful and spacious. Two couples stayed and enjoyed the amenities of the condo, resort and area. The condo was completly updated.
Our balcony had an unobtructed view of the ocean and sunsets. We saw dolphins 3 times!
The pool was clean and warm and was never crowded. Unfortunately the restaurant and bar next to the pool was not in service.
the area is quiet by only minutes away from the Kailua Kona.
We would highly recommend this condo and will most likely stay there on our next visit

So Close to the Ocean!

My wife and I spent four nights in this beautiful condominium and had a great time. It is located right on the ocean and has a great lanai for viewing the setting sun. Unit was well decorated and we particularly liked the fact that all floors were ceramic tile - very cool and easy to keep clean. Our only complaint was we occasionally heard noise from upstairs and next door neighbors.

We loved this condo. There were only two of us who actually stayed here, but it was the hub for our whole family, part of which stayed in another condo. The location was perfect and the lanai was heavenly. This was our slice of paradise for a week.
The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials and there were boogie boards and pool noodles available, too. Furniture was fine, the unit has been tastefully remodeled and is nicely decorated. We were very comfortable. Thanks for everything!

We had been going to Kauai and decided to try the Big Island. Our condo at Kanaloa was perfect for what we wanted to do.
It was large, well appointed and in a wonderful location. We were a bit surprised that we had to pay extra for air conditioning but all other expenses were in line with what we had paid for other condos.
We highly recommend this property.

We stayed at this condo twice, in 2006 and 2008. It was remodeled
between our visits, improving on what was already a lovely place to stay. It
has two bedrooms. The master suite is large with a big bathroom and a
Jaccuzzi hot tub. The lanai overlooks the ocean--you hear it 24/7, very
relaxing with beautiful sunsets. 2nd bathroom is also large. Great kitchen,
dishwasher, big refrigerator. Washer and dryer work well. Beautiful grounds
and pools. Read our review plus others on Trip Advisor--we rented the
condo based on those reviews and pictures online.

Our stay at this condo was a very enjoyable and relaxing experience. There's nothing like getting up in the morning, making a cup of coffee, and sitting on the lanai relaxing to the sound of the surf and the sight of the ocean!
The condo was well-supplied, clean, and comfortable. The grounds were beautiful, clean, and peaceful.
This was definitely the best place we've stayed at in our three trips to the islands. We're spoiled now!
The only thing that would have made our stay better was if the complex had a bar/restaurant. Still, the drive to town wasn't all that far.
We can't wait until we have the opportunity to return.
