Everything we needed

David was a great, communicative host. His apartment is centrally located, making it easy to walk to many good restaurants and cafes, plus the included parking made exploring the island easy. The apartment is clean, nicely decorated, and the kitchen is fully stocked. It does sometimes get a little bit loud in the area at night but we weren't really bothered. Overall, we would definitely stay again!

Wonderful stay at the Kona Alii

The Kona Alii is probably our favourite condo on the Big Island. This was our first stay overlooking the pool rather than the street/ocean. We really enjoyed the unit. North-facing with a nice breeze in April, we rarely turned on the fans and certainly never missed air conditioning. The unit is well stocked, clean, and comfortable. Lots of room for the two of us. The only drawback was the early morning traffic floating through the bedroom window (mostly delivery and garbage trucks I think, at Coconut Grove) and the light from the outside hallway, but the owers can't control that. We had night shades, so that helped with the light. We loved the rooftop terrace for morning coffee and sunsets: we even spotted a whale breaching one evening. Thanks to David for accommodating our late check out! We would certainly stay here again!

Gemütlicher Ausgangspunkt für die Erkundung von Kona

Sehr schöne Wohnung - gemütlich eingerichtet, sehr sauber. Man merkt, dass sich jemand gut kümmert. Die Lage ist super für die Erkundung von Kona (geht zu Fuß). Große Zahl an Restaurants und Shops, sowie das Meer, kleine Badebuch, Sehenswürdigkeiten in Kona alle fußläufig zu erreichen. Genug Platz. Schöner Lanai (Meer kann man sehen). Swimming Pool ist gepflegt (habe ich aber nicht genutzt). Besonders cool fand ich die Schnorchel-Ausrüstung. Vermieter ist gut erreichbar und freundlich. Es gab ein Problem mit einigen Kabeln und dem Internet und David war sehr bemüht, das schnell zu lösen.

Spacious unit in central Kailua-Kona

Excellent place to stay. David was very thorough on the check in procedure, and with the operational details of the condo. It is a large 1 bedroom unit and could fit two additional people with the Murphy bed in the living room. The location is walking distance to several good restaurants, and sunset views. We enjoyed fresh fruit for breakfast on the lanai, which had a partial ocean view. It was a great place to base out of for our week of exploring the Big Island!

Great Location

We loved it! There was a slight hiccup upon check in but the host was quick to respond and took care of everything. The unit is amazing-wonderful lanai, great amenities and very roomy. The decor is perfect and you just can’t beat the location. Best place to eat (in our opinion) is A-Bay’s right next door. It’s one of the more affordable places and the food is delicious; try their Avocado Toast for breakfast and for lunch/dinner get the fish and chips-you will not be disappointed. Sad to be leaving-had the best vacation ever! Thank you Mr. Threefoot.

Totally Right

I have stayed at many VRBO properties and this one is in a perfect location for all things Kailua-Kona and big island. Property is loved and not just a rental. Owner provided so much more than just a place to stay. From appliances to snorkels it’s provided. Thanks so much for the great memories for my family.

Perfect spot in town for our family of four

This was the perfect place to stay with my wife and two teenage daughters. The location was excellent, and the living/sleeping arrangements surpassed our needs. We enjoyed the view of the ocean and Hualalai, and it was great to be able to just pop across the street or up to the 7th floor for great views of sunset. The parking spot was convenient to the room and easy for us to head out on adventures north or south. The teenagers slept in the bedroom and enjoyed some much-needed privacy. My wife and I slept on the very comfortable murphy bed and appreciated being able to stay up later and sit out on the lanai. The place was equipped with everything that we needed, and I can't imagine coming back to the Big Island without staying here!

Restful and Relaxing Stay

We thought this property was very clean and well maintained. It was well stocked with towels, bedding, shower items, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc. We slept well in the bed the entire time. We found the condo quiet and comfortable. It stayed cool with windows open and fans going while we were there. We loved being in the downtown area of Kona. We appreciated that the complex is at the end of the parking lot, away from the main street. The popular Alii Drive is also on the opposite end of this unit, so it is quiet from both directions. The only issues we had was trouble getting the Wi-Fi to work and opening the sliding glass door onto the Lanai. David was quick and responsive to my emails before the trip. His instructions are very thorough and easy to follow. Even with some rain while we were there, we enjoyed playing the Mexican Train domino game he left there. We had a wonderful relaxing and restful time and are grateful for our stay.

Great location!

Enjoyed our stay in this very clean and comfortable condo. Has everything you need including a lanai with a partial ocean and pool view with delightful plumeria and palms. We did not know that the condo had a cooler and a variety of “toys” (snorkeling gear) for playing in the ocean including size 11 pool shoes, 2 pool noodles, 2 old beach chairs, 1 folding chair, umbrella, and boogie board. Next to restaurants on Alii Drive! A bit noisy at night from tennis courts next door and traffic on Kuakini.

About the host

Hosted by David Threefoot

Host profile image
Hi, I'm David, one of four siblings that own this condo in Kona. I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife, Eileen. We love travel and have stayed in many locations with Home Away over the years. I enjoy playing banjo,, guitar, learning to speak Danish and physical activity. My favorite activities when visiting the condo are walking, bike riding and hiking along with the usual activities of snorkeling and sunbathing. There is so much to see. and do there. Our visits are always full of wonder and joy.

Why they chose this property

This condo was our father's home since the 1980. He has since passed away. During his life there, he absolutely loved the islands and was very active in hiking and exploring Hawaii. He never missed a sunset in front of the Kona Ali'i lanai. I spent many memorable evenings with his community of friends, watching the sunset and hoping for the "Green Flash" We saw a few times but it was always an unknown. The location is perfect for getting around. The ocean is front and center, there is a great coffee house nearby and many restaurants minutes away. The condo has a fine pool, water feature. We provide WiFI and cable TV as well as a DVD player with internet content. It's quiet and convenient.

What makes this property unique

One of my favorite features is the water feature. It is just below our lanai and it has a relaxing sound but best of all, it attracts local bird populations. At any time you an see cardinals, japanese white eyes and java sparrows. Occasionally a more rare species will visit. We've had them venture into the living room when we've left the patio door open. It is something I always look forward to during our visits.
