Solo Traveler First Time to Kona

Very good location, slightly away from the hubbub of the downtown area. Clean, comfortable property has it all. On the ocean, pool, relaxing area to sit, grill, and enjoy the calm. Definitely would consider a repeat stay here.

Spectacular Ocean View

The sunsets from the lanai are absolutely gorgeous. Kitchen and everything we needed and the entire home was very clean. It is in a quieter stretch of Kona, which we loved, but still convenient to restaurants and stores in the area. Bonus that they had snorkel gear for us to use. We would definitely choose this unit again if we return to the Big Island. Communication with the property management was excellent. Great experience all around!

My husband and I loved our little condo in Kona Isle! We had an unbelievable ocean view and could see the sunset so perfectly! It was clean and had cute island decor all throughout the condo. There is one AC Unit in the living room, but it cooled the entire place no problem! I highly reccomend staying here.

Location, view, facilities, it’s got itcsll

The place is a one bedroom condo with a decent kitchen, balcony and awesome ocean view. Unit is nicely equipped with all you need in the kitchen (except we had to buy a kettle), beach supplies and essentials. My only area of concern was the deck chairs, the cushions are worn out and uncomfortable. The complex pool and BBQ’s are excellent as are the lounge chairs and picnic tables by the water. We will be back.

Kona Isle

This place had everything we were looking for. The location is great, the place well stocked and you can’t beat the sound of crashing waves and the unobstructed oceanfront view. The complex is quiet, but still very family/kid friendly. The beach chairs and umbrella were great, but wish there had been a small cooler to use. Yes, the place could use a few fixes- a cupboard needed a new hinge, more outlets near the bed to plug in devices, a cheese grater in the kitchen- but these were small issues and easy to work around. I will never understand why people pay the high prices of a resort with all the added fees and crowds when you can have your own slice of heaven like this one.

Wonderful service, terrific value - hot in the bedroom

I was really impressed by the Kona Coast Vacation staff - they dropped off bbq utensils on the 4th of July, fixed a loose rail on the lanai within an hour and were generally extremely responsive. The condo is exactly as advertised - beautiful view and well appointed with a hula lamp anyone with taste has considered hoisting! My only gripe is that the AC is in the living room - it was too hot for me to sleep in the bedroom so I slept on the pullout while my wife and daughter held it down in the bedroom. Obviously not a dealbreaker but one more AC unit would make this rental perfect. Mahalo!

Beautiful and Relaxing Location

We truly enjoyed this condo. The oceanfront location was ideal to experience all that the Big Island has to offer. A hundred feet in front waves crash with an amazing ferocity, To the left is a public saltwater pool that was a blast when the surf was high. Next to that you will find surfers and wonder how they are able to perform their quick turns. The freshwater pool is very clean (heated via solar panels) and was clearly a favorite of many of the guests and residents. We took advantage of the "sandy" beach area every day. The trees and umbrellas provided excellent shade and it was a comfortable place for reading or just watching the surf, admiring how the wave and splash you just saw could have been larger than the last. (But you never do get wet) The BBQ's were in excellent shape. Air Conditioning was very welcome and although it is only in the living room, it did help cool the bedroom at the other end. The kitchen is well stocked with all the pots, pans, and utensils you will need. We certainly will consider this condo again on our next visit.

Sehr schöne gemütliche Wohnung

Die Wohnung ist schön hell und freundlich eingerichtet. Man hatte gleich den Eindruck dass alles sehr sauber und ordentlich ist. Mit vielen landestypischen Dekoteilen geschmückt. Es waren eine Erstausstattung WC Papier, Küchenrolle, Müllbeutel, Spülmaschinentabs und Waschmittel vorhanden. Vielen Dank dafür. Die wunderschöne Aussicht aufs Meer ist unbezahlbar. Das Wohnzimmer ist mit einer Klimaanlage ausgestattet. Im Schlafzimmer gibt es nur einen Ventilator. Da die Sonne am Abend auf dem Schlafzimmer stand, war es zum schlafen schon relativ warm. Im Gästehandbuch auf dem Zimmer stehen die Hausregeln. Unter anderem steht da auch etwas von Mülltrennung. Nachdem wir schön getrennt haben in der Wohnung, waren wir überrascht, dass an der Müllstelle der Anlage, dann doch alles in ein und denselben Container kam. Ansonsten war es wunderbar ruhig und erholsam für uns dort. Diese Wohnung würden wir wieder mieten.

Perfect location!

Property was in a perfect location! View was amazing! We sat on the balcony every chance we had! Only downfall is the air conditioner does not reach well to the bedroom but we were provided with a fan that helped circulate the air. But we were provided with a lot of amenities most places do not provide. The cooler was an exceptional help when we were out running and visiting the island. I was very pleased with all the extras provided!

Oceanfront dream

Just imagine: morning Kona coffee with ocean breeze, magnificent Hawaii sunset at your own lanai, pacific waves crashing into rocks when you asleep… these are our daily experiences when staying at Kona isle E21. It’s magical. This condo was the perfect base for my son and I’s week long stay at Kona. Very convenient location, quiet and clean. Kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need for a breakfast or light dinner. AC in livingroom only but strong enough to keep bedroom comfortable for sleeping. We actually loved turning it off at sleeping so we hear the ocean! If you have a smaller group, no more than 4, this is your dream place to stay in Kona. Thank you, we will be back!
