“ We had an amazing time staying here! This unit has a wonderful large lanai that is perfect to enjoy the water and golf course views and relax. We spent much of our time out there! The 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms can accomodate a large group or family. The location is perfect and close to many great beaches, shopping, grocery stores, restaurants, golf, tennis, pool, etc. We will definitely be back! ”

“ The condo was a great place for our family to stay. It was well stocked with everything we needed to have fun on the vacation. The lanai is awesome and we enjoyed most of our meals out there the bathroom is also a highlight. The weather was warm for the first part of the trip and there was little wind so not having A/C was a little uncomfortable, but that changed once the trade winds picked up a bit and we were comfortable. Also beware that the resort has a ridiculously expensive internet policy which was disappointing. ”

The amenities of the development are very good with good beach access. The furnishings are good, but the unit could have been cleaner. The carpet needed to be cleaned or replaced. I would rent here again. ”

tom and nancy from Anchorage on 04/17/2009 said:

“ This is a beautiful, spacious apartment in a very well maintained complex. It is a top floor corner unit with an excellent sunny lanai. Many of the other units have lanai shaded and get pretty limited sun, but this one is open to the sky and great for sunning all day, reading, and evening dining under the stars. The only drawback for us was the proximity to parking lot noise and activity, but overall this owner rented unit was very comfortable and had great privacy considering that it is in a big complex. We also found the owners very pleasant and easy to deal with. We found it to be a great value compared to places we have stayed on Maui. ”

“ This condo has everything one would want in a vacation home. It is beautifully decorated and in a great location within the resort. The pool, tennis courts and BBQ are a stones throw away. We took great pictures of the magnificent Hawaiian sunsets from the upstairs lanai. Three fresh fish meals were prepared (mahi mahi and ono we caught deep sea fishing) in their well stocked kitchen. We ate breakfast every morning on the lovely lanai and relaxed here many evenings. We would definitely recommend this fabulous condo to our friends and family. ”

A True Aloha Experience

Pat from Hutchinson, MN on 03/25/2010 said:

“ Four of our family members stayed in Fred & Bonnie's beautiful condo for 9 days in early March 2010. It made our trip truly delightful. The rental process and securing our key was a snap. The condo is spacious, convenient, very well stocked, comfortable and what we all considered having the "true Aloha" feeling. We spent as much time on the large lanai as in the house...coffee & tea in the morning, reading, relaxing & listening to music and cocktails in the evening. The artwork and decorations added an authentic spirit of old and new Hawaii. Having 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms was an added luxury we all enjoyed and the rental rate was the best bargain I have experienced in many, many years! As you may be gathering, there was nothing left wanting in any way...we even had partial views of the ocean; what more could anyone ask for. Thank you Fred and Bonnie for making our long awaited trip an absolute joy! ”

This condo is hands-down the nicest place we have ever stayed

Overall rating:
Winter Escapees from Ann Arbor, Michigan on 03/20/2010 said:

“ This huge, beautiful, spacious condominium was truly one of the main highlights of our trip to the Big Island of Hawaii. We have been to Kauai and Maui before, and many other places in Australia, Europe, Canada, and the U.S., but this was the nicest place the four of us have stayed, particularly as we prefer to make most of our own meals, and also like the privacy of a condo rental as compared to a hotel. The rooms are large and comfortable; the kitchen and the rest of the condo have about every amenity one can imagine; it is very clean; the bathrooms are large and beautifully updated; it is tastefully decorated with local artwork displayed throughout; and there is a large porch or lanai (where we would take breakfast at dawn), that has a great view of the ocean and the perfectly maintained gardens at the Kona Coast Resort. The facility is close to, but not inside, the city of Kailua-Kona, and has nearby shopping available. This location also provides an excellent base for visiting the many attractions and activities up and down the western coast of the Big Island. (Where there always seems to be a sunny spot to find, if you look for it. We like to visit beaches and take 2-4 hour hikes.) I don't think we could have asked for a nicer location or facility. You can't go wrong here. In addition, the local representative was very helpful with our getting situated upon our arrival. Both he and the owners were also very helpful, understanding and considerate on the morning of our checkout, when we were jolted out of bed at 5 or 6 AM by tsunami warning sirens, following the earthquake in Chile the day before. They offered the possibility for us to stay over if need be, should the tsunami create a disaster, or make it impossible to take our flight later that day. While we waited and watched with thousands of others for 'the big wave', in the end it never materialized, and we went on our way as planned. Nevertheless, we greatly appreciated this act of thoughtfulness. ”

“ This condo has everything you could possibly need or want on a vacation. If you like to have the option to stay in and cook, the kitchen has every essential you can think of and then some (there is also a grill right outside). All the conveniences of home with a Hawaiian twist. There is a GORGEOUS lanai (outdoor patio) with a table for sharing meals and conversation - complete with tiki lights for the ultimate Hawaiian feel. There is a full grocery store within minutes and at least two local markets right nearby as well where you can get fresh fruits, vegetables etc. If you like to go out, there are plenty of restaurants close by and the owners even have a book of restaurant recommendations and descriptions (along with things to do, etc). The condo is centrally located in Kona yet the grounds are lush, peaceful and tropical. It's situated on a golf course on the water with impeccable grounds. There are several swiming pools and they are never crowded. Perfect for families or couples looking for peace and quiet since there are several options to pick from on the property. I can't think of a single negative thing about our stay except it wasn't nearly long enough! I would higly recommend this condo. It's gorgeous, it's clean, it's comfortable. It's the perfect Hawaiian get-a-way. ”

“ The villa corresponded to the description very well. Clean, spacious, thoughtfully arranged ie. books, music discs, games,tourist info included, beach material, welcome basket - very nice touches. Should be added to your description as part of the package. Would add a map with details to the closest shopping mall and their working hours. We came at 11 pm after a 15 hour flight and wasted 2 hrs in the dark looking to buy milk and cereal for the kids for breakfast in the morning. For a fee may be you could do some basic shopping for late arrivals as we were? The entire resort was very quiet and very well organized. Will recommend without hesitation. ”

“ Staying in this condo made us feel like we were in our own home. The condo is beautifully decorated and sparkling clean. The furnishings are elegant yet comfortable. We were able to cook meals there every day, since the kitchen was well appointed, having everything we needed. The grocery store is conveniently located nearby. We stayed with two other couples, so each couple had their own bedroom and private bath. We started each day with a pleasant breakfast on the lanai. We appreciated the beach "toys" and supplies that were furnished and we enjoyed our days snorkeling at the nearby beach. Almost daily were were in the swimming pool which was right next door and enjoyed the privacy since very few people used the pool and hot tub there. The setting is very quiet and private. We look forward to joining our friends there again.....we highly recommend this condo as your home away from home in Hawaii. ”

Picturesque restful location

Overall rating:
Michigan vacationer from Ann Arbor, Michigan on 01/21/2010 said:

“ While there is additional sleeping arrangements that would be adequate for children, the three full bedrooms with adjoining baths perfectly accommodated the three adult couples sharing the unit. Although the resort does not have it's own beach, a very short walk away there is an incredible lagoon perfect for sunbathing, swimming and snorkeling and the pool directly across the drive from the condo became a regular evening retreat. The little touches of artwork and outstanding added amenities beyond the norm provided by the owners made wine & cheese on the lanai following our dips in the pool into delightful evening events. Unobstructed views of breathtaking sunsets and active blow holes are another short walk from the condo. The resort is beyond a comfortable walking distance from Kona, so a car is useful if one wishes to utilize the shops and restaurants. The owners left directions to a number of their favorite places on the island - which turned into some of our favorites as well. ”

“ Thanks you for the privilege of living in your condo! We had a fantastic time. Everything was in perfect shape when we arrived and the area around the condo was wonderful - relaxed, well-maintained perfect for evening strolls. The whole atmosphere of the condo itself made it feel more like coming home than coming to a rental -- except better. Good taste! You have obviously put a lot of thought to making your guests comfortable and our stay rewarding. As others have mentioned, your very personal "guide books" to the island were a big help in finding things we might otherwise have missed. We also loved having both a snorkeling beach and a good supermarket in easy walking distance (but not so close as to cause us any traffic). ”

Alberda and Family from Bellflower, california on 10/20/2009 said:

“ The service was great. The Condo had everything one could possibly need. There was a leek under the kitchen sink, but it was taken care of immediately. I like the fact that there was plenty of space (very roomy)The decor was nice and the Condo was clean. The location was great; close to shopping and entertainment. I would love to stay in Condo 7-106 again on my next trip to the Big Island. Mahalo! ”

Manager response:

“ Bonnie and I are concerned that cleanliness got a lower rating, although it is mentioned by the guest that the unit was clean.

If there is one thing we pride ourselves on, it is the quality of the cleaning service that we have retained. Perhaps this was a lapse so we have forwarded the rating comment to the cleaning staff. We note that all prior reviews give 5 stars to cleanliness.

We are also pleased that the leak was quickly repaired. Breakdowns happen in any home and we are lucky to have a wonderful on-site manager to take care of problems.

Bonnie and I agree with the Alberda family that (whenever we visit this Hawaii home of ours) we think, wow this place is awesome. A refuge of quiet tropical comfort.

Wonderful stay

Overall rating:
atty1tx from Amarillo, TX on 08/22/2009 said:

“ Our two small families of three (parents and 2 college-aged daughters) were very comfortable in this 3 bedrm/3bth condo. Every morning, we enjoyed the comfortable covered patio for coffee and breakfast, listening to the birds and ocean. In the evenings, we would end up in those same comfortable patio chairs again, discussing our day. Very quiet resort. Seldom heard the neighbors. We would definitely stay here again. Reservation and arrival process: Very easy and efficient. They acknowledged the deposit and subsequent payment with plenty of detail in the statement. Prompt reply to our email asking questions. They provided excellent directions from the airport. Not hard to find and check-in was a breeze. The condo: Very clean, well-maintained, fresh, and modern. Lots of windows and light. Beautiful art and nice furniture. Ceiling fans in all rooms. It is a fully equipped home--linens, towels, kitchen appliances, dishes & utensils, washer/dryer, tv, stereo, CDs, books, games, and beach toys. Truly, all you need to bring is your clothes and food! (There is a supermarket and drug store less than 5 minute away.) It took only a moment to figure out the a/c controls in each living area. There is a community gas grill just a few steps away. Resort: The girls enjoyed the pools. We did not use other facilities, but the golf course looked great and we heard good things about the restaurant. Location: On the west side of the island, so it is a bit of a drive southeastward to the volcano national park, or northward to a bay we wanted to visit for swimming. The condo is just a 10 minutes to a cluster of other resort hotels, some of which offer luaus. Negatives: Hard to find any negative. Condo parking was a tad awkward, but near the front door. A disabled person could use the first floor bdrm/bath & kitchen, but would have difficulty with split level first floor to the patio & living rm, and of course, stairs to second floor. The area roads are good, but traffic stacks up. ”

Helen and Mark from Arlington Heights, IL on 12/17/2009 said:

“ 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! ”

“ 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. ”

There are some great snorkeling spots and great breakfest/coffee places down highway 19. I strongly suggest reading Hawaii Revealed, it is a blue book and the condo has one on the desk. I look forward to staying in this condo again! ”

“ We had a wonderful stay at condo 10-304. The unit came with everything and more that we needed (appliances, furniture/bedding, electronics, games, etc.), to make our vacation wonderful and carefree. The unit was clean and comfortable and a great value. I would highly recommended this unit to anyone interested in visiting Kona. I have already told friends about it and will definately rent again for our next visit. ”

Breath-taking views, relaxing, better for couples

Overall rating:
On our way to Shanghai from Akron on 07/21/2010 said:

“ 10-304 of Kona Coast Resorts is close to the ocean, snorkeling, and the shopping complex to get your necessities/food and some dining. Probably the best part of the condo is the views. It was a pleasant surprise to have items like bedding, cleaning supplies, TP, etc included in the condo- thank you!! Couldn't easily travel with that from the continental us like we do when staying on the mainland. I say this vacation home is probably better for one couple for 2 reasons- the air conditioning does nothing for the upstairs loft. So unless you like it hot, or are traveling in a cooler season, you probably don't want to sleep up there. The other reason I suggest that children not occupy this house has to do with the downstairs neighbor. She found us right away after arrival to tell us to make sure our children walked softly because of the tile floors. So, we spent an entire week telling our children to whisper and to tiptoe around (one of our son's walks like an elephant). ”

Mark and family Wisconsin from River Falls, WI on 07/16/2010 said:

“ We spent 5 nights and had breakfast on the lanai each morning, our surprise was 2 full size bathrooms with walkin showers. The condo was very clean with all the necessary supplies to begin our stay. The grocery and drug stores were 2 blocks away, an easy walk and the view was fantastic each day. We opted for no air conditioning and the breeze made it very comfortable for sleeping as we were gone somewhere during the day. We highly recommend this wonderful property. There is access to a beach within 1 mile and there are 2 pools and 3 hot tubs on the property. There is a gas grill right next to the garage. ”

Wonderful Kona Coast Condo

Overall rating:
Aloha Dennis from Kailua, Oahu, Hawaii on 05/06/2010 said:

“ Aloha Condos (Kona Coast Resort 10-304) is a wonderful place to stay in Kona. It is located in the Kona Coast Resort with the Keauhou shopping center just 2 blocks away. The condo has an upgraded kitchen with marble counters and new appliances, very easy to get around for cooking. A small wet bar area at the end of the kitchen is ideal for breakfast or to have an evening drink. The large main bathroom has a clear tile-block shower enclosure and double sinks layed in marble. The modernize kitchen, tile floors throughout and Hawaiian decor made it a relaxing place to stay. The ocean view across the golf course is spectacular. Watching from the condo deck or walking 1 block to the ocean front cliffs to watch the sunset is a nightly ritual. We highly recommend the stay for 2 or 4 people since this is a 2 bedroom 2 bath condominium. Aloha, Dennis ”

Kona Coast Resort Condo 10-304

Mongowal from Helena, MT on 04/28/2010 said:

“ The best vacation we have ever had. The Condo was very clean with all the amenities. The beds were very comfortable and having two bathrooms was a real plus. The placement of the condo was perfect, the lanai overlooked the ocean with no other buildings obstructing the view. The condo had plenty of space for our family of four. The only one minor issue was that there is no direct access to a beach from the condo complex, at least not one that we could find. This was not a huge issue as we were able to find other beaches close by. The pool area was nice as was the bar, a little spendy, but we expected this. Overall, we had a great time and will never stay in a hotel on a vacation again. This was our most relaxing, fun filled vacation we have ever had. We will stay here again for sure. ”

Kona Coast Resort - Unit 10-304

Overall rating:
On Vacation from Escondido, CA on 04/14/2010 said:

“ We stayed for 8 days with our two younger teens. The Resort property is well maintained and the grounds are very nice. Staff is friendly and helpful. The unit itself is nicely stocked with towels (beach & bath), kitchen pot/pans, (even laundry soap) and information about things to do (including on-site activities). It is very spacious and the large lanae is unbeatable for a 180 views of the ocean and sunsets. All appliances worked just fine. I understand that it was updated - the owners did a nice job with the kitchen and bathrooms. The furnishing are nice although they show some wear. All in all it was quite comfortable. We did not use the AC, but I can see where you might need it. Most of the time there were great ocean breezes with all the windows open, except for the upstairs (kids bedroom/loft). The owners provided 3 moveable fans which helped a lot. We had our own internet service so can't comment about service through the Resort. We liked the resort location. It is about 30 minutes to nice sandy beaches like Hapuna, but there are plenty of things to do locally, so you won't get bored. It is a quiter location than in town and not as lush as the large resorts, but it was a good home base. The grocery store is across the street which is really helpful. We cooked and ate on the lanae a lot. The pools are nice and we ate at the poolside restaurant a couple of times. Food was pretty good and fairly reasonably priced. A nice way to spend the evening with the kids in the pool. ”

We felt very comfortable and could have easily spent our days happily not leaving the condo, amazing considering we are the type that are always on the go. The owner was extremely responsive to any questions we had before we went and really seemed to care that we throughly enjoy our stay at his obviously well loved vacation get away. And that we did. ”

“ This condo has a wonderful view of the ocean. The sunsets are beautiful. We never ate inside as it is just too great out on the lanai. The unit was comfortable, very clean and had everything we needed. Having coolers, beach chairs, beach towels and boogie boards provided makes packing so much easier! The location is convenient to shopping, activities and a good snorkel beach. We would most definitely stay there again. ”

cl davis from bothell wa on 11/02/2009 said:

“ we loved our unit. Beautiful sweeping view of the ocean, very nice unit with lots of extra. The pools were great. Used exercise room everyday. Our only complaints were: we had to pay extra for air conditioning, which never seemed to cool the loft area bedroom which stayed too warm. There was constuction just out side our front door. They were working on the stairway and walk ways on week days. Workers were very nioe, but we had to listen to hammers and saws, which took away from our peaceful retreat. Would have been nice to have been told in advance. ”

Sam from Kuala Lumpur on 10/14/2009 said:

“ This was the second time that Carmen and I stayed at the Kona Coast Resort. We liked it last year and hence wanted to return to the same development this year. We found the standard of the condo to be excellent with the necessary amenities. However and being only two, we did not take full advantage of what the condo had to offer. Nevertheless, the location, the spaciousness, the view, the proximity to shopping, etc all added to an enjoyable experience. If we find ourselves back in Koan again next year, we will certainly look to stay at Kona Coast Resort again. Thanks. ”

“ This was our second trip to this condo. The location is perfect for us - between snorkeling to the south and shopping/restaurants to the north. We love relaxing on the lanai at sunset and with our morning coffee. The condo is really nicely appointed and generally well equipped (though there was no replacement for the kleenex and we almost ran out of TP this time). ”

“ A good spot for chillin' out, or a home base for day trips around the island. Watch the sun dip into the ocean every night (maybe even seen a green flash). Right on Alii Drive, so a short distance to several outstanding restaurants. Plenty of room to spread out. Have some Kona coffee on the lanai in the AM. Quiet community. ”

Tim, Maria & kids from Chicago on 07/28/2009 said:

“ The property was in great condition and was a great value! The photos accurately reflect the interior of the condo. The owners obviously use the property and it is very well maintained. There are towels, utensils, dishes, a washer and dryer, many appliances (all in working order); just like being at home. There is a grocery store, movie theatre and drugstore within walking distance. We very much enjoyed our stay! I have nothing bad to say about our experience. The best beach I have ever seen is Hapuna Beach. It's a 45 minute drive away (there is really nothing that it is close to) with turquoise waters and white sand beaches. Google it, then GO! Also did Volcano National Park (3 hours away) [1.5 out of 5 stars], Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens (2 hours away)[3.5 out of 5 stars] (take mosquito spray), and the Southernmost point in the US [1/2 star out of 5]. We had 5 nights and that proved enough time to see everything we wanted to. Again, highly recommend staying at this condo! ”

It was very well equipped and loved the clothes rack on the lanai for all the towels after swimming. The lanai furniture was very nice and the view was awesome. The kids enjoyed playing with others in the complex. Can't wait for our next trip and hope we can get this same condo. ”

AlohaGal76 from Los Angeles, California on 04/23/2009 said:

“ A beautiful, breezy top-floor unit, with near panoramic ocean views and all the comforts of home. Whether cooking in the spacious fully-equipped kitchen, lounging on the huge lanai or catching up on your favoriate TV program in the livingroom, master bedroom or loft bedroom (equipped with two huge bathrooms), this unit is well worth the stay. If you don't wish to travel the 4 mins north to Kaliua-Kona (but don't miss the great pier, shops, restaurants and spectacular lu'au), you're only a stone's throw away from a convenient outdoor shopping center, where you can find a huge grocery store, drugstore, shops, restaurants, and even a movie theater. I've been to the Big Island at least 10 times,and Unit 10-304 is by far the most attrative, well-maintained owner's unit ever. The surrounding grounds are quiet and very clean, with lots of activities to choose from including shuffleboard, tennis, volleball, baskteball, swimming...there's also an activities desk on premise to help you plan your day. I will be back! ”

“ This unit was just as it was pictured online....clean, comfortable, nicely decorated, and the view was amazing. We did have an unexpected guest sharing the condo.....we weren't informed about the likelihood that a gecko(s) may get into the condo.....most likely through a space in the screen door when we had the front door open. We kept the door closed after that. We enjoyed the island breezes coming in from all the windows but the noise outside every morning from the condo maintenance people was rather annoying. Over all, we very much enjoyed staying here! ”

“ We sent Jim of Aloha Condos e-mails and voicemails asking him to schedule me and my wife to stay in this unit for our upcoming anniversary! he never got back to us and so we changed our plans and are staying somewhere else! Pretty sad situation if this is how your condo is being handled! Kimo Dejon ”

Manager response:

“ All of the condos on our website can be rented Real-Time via our website (www.alohacondos.com) and don't require sending emails or calling anybody to rent. We don't want potential guests to have to wait for a response in order to book their stay.

This guest had called me to ask for a discount and I passed along this information to the owner - Jim Weinand. Jim never contacted the guest because of a problem that occurred during the guest's previous stay.

During their previous stay this customer violated the non-smoking policy and smoked heavily in the unit. After their departure the cleaning team went to considerable effort and additional expense to properly clean the unit for our next guests. The owners will not rent to this guest again.
