Great Honeymoon Stay
Carolyn's place was fantastic! My husbad and I stayed at her condo for a few nights and were very impressed with the location, amenities, and the cleanliness of the space. Don't forget about the views! It was so enjoyable grabbing a cup of coffee in the morning and sitting out on the balcony. We even saw a turtle one morning. We highly recommend Carolyn's place and will most definitely be staying there again when we come back!

Kona Getaway
Late arrival found a security guard who helped us get our bearings with parking and finding our way to our place. Thanks Quintin. Condo was as described in our correspondence, had a little difficulty figuring out lights and air conditioning as it was quite warm as we arrivied late. We enjoyed our time on the property and were especially pleased to explore the tide pools and watch a turtle munch away right before our very eyes. Hawaii was all that we expected and more. Thank you!

Property just ok
Place was clean and accomodated us, view was good, no real beach and amenities were just ok, pool etc. On busy road, so no real place to walk along beach etc. if you are looking for that, look elsewhere.

Beautiful waterfront condo
Fantastic views with a nice lava cove plus some sandy beach. The best of both with seeing turtles and tropical fish. Great view of the sunset and moonset. The best part is the view from the living room and master bed is of the ocean! Awesome!

Lanai is the best part
I noticed the place was not as clean as it should have been. Then we noticed the ants, I contacted the owner, who blamed the cleaners. We had to kill ants every time we walked into the kitchen, this was more than a not cleaning well enough issue. Then 2 nights before we left we saw roaches. I again contacted the owner who said she could get some one in there to spray, but with only 2 nights left we did not want to get sick from the fumes. There were other things, AC was leaking, she got someone in right away to fix that. The bathroom off of the main bedroom had a cold water faucet that fell off in my husband's hand. Then the shower did not get hot water only warm, so we used the other bathroom shower off of the kitchen. There were so many little things that added up to frustration, the roaches were the worst. It is a lot of money to have to kill ants every time in the kitchen. If you stay here and don't mind the issues, enjoy the lanai, it's the best part along with the ocean front property where turtles like to spend time.

We would like to clarify a few things. In our welcome book, we clearly advise guests that you are in the tropics and leaving window and doors open or foods out uncovered will only invite the little critters. We would never blame our staff, we only suggested that we'd send them back to take care of what you want. The shower works fine before and after your stay, as does the AC. At each communication, we made every effort to accommodate your many demands but it was somehow never enough or appreciated. We are very proud of our track records of over 300 guest reviews between airbnb and vrbo - we have earned a 9.8 out of 10 (vrbo) and Super Host title from Airbnb. We are here because we take good care of our guests and provide 5 star accommodations. Mahalo

The real deal
This condo was the real deal. The view was amazing and gave you a sense of solitude while still being very close to several towns. Everything was just as pictured and advertised. The included parking was convenient and easily accessible. There is a very nice binder of information on many restaurants, bars and activities in the room. The hosts were responsive and kind. 5 stars.

Nice stay…. Amazing sunsets
The condo is in a great location. Close to the town of Kailua-Kona. The condo is right on the ocean. You look out from the balcony and the ocean right below. The condo looks out to the west so you get beautiful sunsets from the balcony. The condo is quite spacious with two bedrooms and two baths. Nice living, dining and kitchen area. Kitchen has everything you need for cooking. The condo is on the 4th floor. There is an elevator but it’s a good walk to the unit from the elevator. If you have mobility issues it could be too far of a walk. There is ample covered parking which was great. Aspects of the condo interior is well worn (couch, furniture) There was a problem with ants but I think the exterminators were due right after we left. I would stay there again.

Perfect View
We loved our stay here!! The whole place is perfect but the balcony views were a 10/10. We had our breakfast out there, enjoyed the beautiful sunsets, and fish/turtle watching. The main room was also another favorite because we slept with the balcony glass door open and we were able to hear the crashing waves which was so nice to sleep to. Overall we had an amazing time :)

Wonderful stay in Kilauea-Kona
We were very pleased with this unit! Clean, well kept, comfortable and well located. The 4th floor balcony and west-facing wall of windows allowed spectacular viewing of the most amazing sunsets! Bring a sleep mask, though, because the curtains are sheer. The A/C unit in the main living area worked very well to cool the master bedroom/bath, living, dining and kitchen areas. We didn't need the front bedroom, but took note that it was not cooled as well and would require fans to be comfortable. Wear your polarized sunglasses and you will be entertained by the tropical fish swimming in the water below! We would without hesitation stay in this unit again.

Just What We Needed!
We stayed toward the end of a 3-islands-in-12-days visit to Hawaii. The condo was just what we needed to wind down from almost two weeks of activities, including 8 miles of walking in Volcanoes National Park the day before. Comfortable beds, gorgeous views from the lanai, the sounds of the waves at night—heaven. And Carolyn was wonderful to work with. She was responsive and clear in her communications. This will definitely be at the top of our list to stay whenever we visit the Big Island!

This was a beautiful, updated condo right on the water. Lovely, quiet complex. Loved the spacious lanai overlooking the water. Enjoyed falling asleep hearing the waves crash on the rock. The other bedroom facing the road is a little noisy so be prepared if road noise bothers you. Beds were very comfortable. The condo had everything we needed. It was the perfect location to enjoy the Kona area. We would love to return!

OK but Not for Us Sadly
Nothing really wrong just as we said in the title not the place for us and we were a little disappointed. The owner may wish to update some of the photos on the listing as there are few cosmetic changes, especially on the Lanai. We didn't like the air con pumping out on the lanai as it created lots of heat, maybe there could be a screen. The complex is looking a bit tired and many of the communal areas are dirty. We didnt realise there would be no food offerings at night close by and had to drive or get an uber to get to the main town that was the biggest downside for us, location. Maybe the owner could improve the directions for how to find the parking as the entrance is very easy to miss (we speak from experience!) Whilst the property was clean, the washing machine in particular was very smelly and we had to run it on a hot wash and clean all the door sills to remove stagnate water, this maybe was down to previous guests and their use but could/should be checked by housekeeping, especially with a cleaning fee charged. We struggled with the fans which seemed to work erratically, again maybe this was us but there were no clear instructions to help us out. Sadly we would not stay again but Im sure for the area its a good option if you don't want to blow the bank but for us we felt it was quite expensive for what we got, parts are quite tired although you can see the owner has tried. Not intending to offend just wanted to be honest and this is our personal opinion

Thank you for your feedback. We wish you had contacted us at the time, we could have answered / addressed your concerns. I will do my best to respond: 1) Thank you for the reminder, we have made so many updates / upgrades to the unit and should update our photos so our guests can see the new and improved facilities provided. 2) Unfortunately this is a condo, 25 ft from the ocean. With environmental laws and ordinance, the only place we are allowed to install the AC is on the lanai. Most of our guests used the A/C without issues as the lanai size if over 200 sqft. We are sorry you found it uncomfortable 3) May we suggest you review listing descriptions more closely next time before booking? We clearly describe distance to town, etc – so not to mislead our guests 4) Washer will not drain properly if you open the door before the cycle is done running. This is the first time we hear of such issue, our technician has checked and confirmed there is no issue with machine 5) Our other guests used the fan controls without issues. We wish you have reached out to us so we could have helped We have been in service since 2016 with over 133 reviews and a 4.8 star rating, a record which we are very proud of and work very hard to maintain. May we suggest you reach out to your hosts whenever you run into any issues on your future stays for a better experience. Aloha

Beautiful view, comfortable condo
This is a wonderful condo with an amazing ocean view. The condo is very clean and comfortable and nicely decorated. Kitchen is very well stocked, including some cooking basics such as olive oil and spices. I feel that the hosts really thought through what one might need in a vacation rental and appreciated things like scissors, tissues, and laundry detergent, as well as beach supplies. It is a very easy drive to downtown shops and restaurants but it was great to come back to the quiet of the complex. But the best part of this condo has to be the ocean view. There is nothing between you and the ocean. Beautiful sunsets, and sea turtles feeding daily which we watched from the lanai. If we make it back to the Big Island, we will definitely try to rent this condo again.

Can’t beat the balcony view
Really nice, comfortable place to stay. Very clean. The balcony view is amazing & listening to the ocean is so relaxing. Carolyn was very responsive when we couldn’t initially get into the unit (our fault. We didn’t read the directions thoroughly). The only drawbacks we encountered are the lack of soap for the showers, no salt & pepper & the smaller bedroom let in too much light at night. We would suggest curtains instead of wicker shades. Overall wonderful place. Easy parking. Carts to bring your belongings to the unit were really helpful. Thank you, Carolyn.

Would Absolutely Stay Here Again!
I will say up front, we were in the islands 3 weeks and stayed at 3 different properties on 3 different islands and the one, main complaint associated with all three (we are mainlanders) is that the instructions for operating the audio/visual equipment are vague at best, and assume that all systems operate in a similar fashion. I can tell you, they do not! So better instructions, in the future, please! Also, Carol, since there was a note on the sliding glass door, I believe it would be smart of you to provide some sort of locking deterrent on the sliding glass door in the main bedroom. One other thing I have discovered about all VRBOs we have been to is they do not seem to provide instructions about recycling policies, and Ha This property was everything as advertised. I was surprised at all the hustle an bustle in this resort area - did not know it was as densely populated as it is, but it was not noisy like you would expect. We really delighted in the sea turtles visible just off the lanai and the property was convenient to everything you might need. When we go on vacations, we always do a virtual recon on (1) the closest Starbucks; (2) the closest Walmart; (3) the closest Total Wine (or liquor store); and (4) the closest Costco (which does sell wine and liquor and beer on the islands). Everything was easily accessible. Just a couple of tidbits to be aware of - the building and common areas struck me as tired, old and well used (not so the unit). Parking was easy, but don't go much bigger than a mid-size car. After a long travel day, we were ready to celebrate our arrival in the unit only to find 3 empty ice trays in the freezer so add a bag of ice to your grocery list! This is not a location where you can sun and swim all day in the ocean and the pictures off the lanai are true to that depiction. Public beaches are nearby and there is plenty of equipment provided (including soft coolers) to pack up and take with you for a day at the beach.

Excellent vacation rental
We recently stayed at Kona Bali Kai for two weeks. It is an excellent place to stay in Kona: sizable and comfortable bedrooms, a great location, and a great view from the lanai for breakfast and sunsets. A small issue with the air conditioner was fixed immediately upon letting the owner know. Both my daughter and I had a great time staying here and would recommend it highly for a stay in the Kailua-Kona area.

We loved the condo right on the beach, listening to the crashing waves. Beds were comfy and we had everything we needed. My only complaint would be that the smaller bedroom was on the street side so you can hear traffic noise (usually died done after 10 pm except on weekends). Also, since it's the farthest from the A/C it got a little warm, though the ceiling fan helped. I would stay here again.

Pictures are better than the property
We ended up only staying about 20 minutes and then left and booked a hotel. Reasons why was because the building is in a sketchy part of town and the front door of the condo had a metal screen door I’m assuming for security reasons. The window above the door wouldn’t shut so there was a lot of street noise. It was very hot and the air conditioner was very dirty and the place just felt dingy. We felt like we could overlook these things until we tried the bed. The mattress was hard as a rock so much so we could not sleep on it especially with my bad back. I will say the view was amazing. I then texted the owner to let her know about the window and she responded immediately that if it was a problem she would contact her handyman. I then texted and said we actually were leaving because of the reasons I mentioned above and asked for the possibility of a refund. Then she ghosted me. I few days later I opened a case with VRBO they contacted the owner and she said no refund that she was keeping with the cancellation policy. We knew we would run this risk when we left. What I do want to say is that we own 3 vacation rentals and if and when our guests are unhappy about something we always offer them some sort of discount, we never ever just ghost them. I was on the fence about leaving this review but I decided to because like I said we are vacation rental owners and our main priority is guest comfort and safety and if they don’t feel that, we offer a discount of something to make them happy. At any rate I hope this review is helpful. Like I said the view there is amazing.
