About this property

Completely Renovated! Kona Reef Oceanfront 2 Bedroom Penthouse A37

See dolphins, whales, turtles and surfers from our oceanfront lanai, in the most desirable 2 bedroom penthouse in Kona!

Enjoy our brand new oceanfront pool area , hot tub and BBQ pavilion (completed Nov 2021)!

Kona Reef Oceanfront Resort is the 1st choice in vacation rentals. Unit A37 (previously the developers unit) is one of the largest units 1200 sq feet, offering the most spectacular panoramic views of the Pacific and sunsets. Brand new and beautifully decorated fully equipped kitchen, with granite counter tops with new stainless appliances, and new bathrooms. We are one of the 3 condos with Central Air (brand new system installed June 2024).

The space
Great for families featuring 2 bedrooms each with new mattresses, TV's and 2 new full bathrooms, one of the largest living rooms with a new 65" TV.. Brand New Kitchen with all new appliances, and a bar/beverage area. Indoor dining area/workspace with new furniture and central air condition throughout.


Attention triathletes! We are just 1 mile to the Ironman start and finish, and the 1.2 mile ironman swim turnaround is viewable from the lanai, and the run course passes infront of our complex. Great location for training, racing and viewing the the Ironman World Championships. It's everything and more you could want for your Hawaiian vacation.

Personalized keyless lock entry.

There is a 3-night minimum/10-night during Ironman and Christmas seasons.

This is a non-smoking, no pets unit, no parties or events.

Fantastic Stay in the Heart of Kona

We recently stayed at this beautiful property and couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. The location is absolutely unbeatable – just two blocks from downtown Kona! We loved being able to walk to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront with ease. The amenities at this property are fantastic. The heated pool was a highlight, offering the perfect way to relax after a day of exploring.The property itself is wonderfully appointed, and was amongst the cleanest properties we've stayed at. It feels like the owners have thought of everything to make guests comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the decor is stylish and inviting. However, if I had to make one small recommendation, it would be to scale back on the decorative pillows and include just a few more practical extras like additional bed pillows and at least one more blanket or snuggies for those cooler evenings.Overall, this property is a gem – perfect for a relaxing getaway in Kona. We will absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a well-located, well-equipped vacation rental.

Fantastic accommodation & location!

Incredible views (corner unit) and sound of waves right on the rocky beach. Walkable to town and small beach. Unit is tastefully remodeled with all amenities as listed. Pool, hot tub and grills nice, not crowded and very clean (crew cleans recreational areas every morning!). Main bedroom w/ ensuite bathroom is huge, 2nd bedroom and bathroom good size. Communications easy. Hope to stay again!

Perfect stay in Kona

We had a perfect stay, visiting Kona for the first time the oceanfront apartment was everything we wanted. The views are unforgettable and the apartment is furnished to a high and modern standard throughout. Just a 10-15 min walk in to Kona which is a blessing as parking is very limited in the town. We were only here for 3 nights but it was a highlight of our trip and we’d love to return in future.

Kona reef

The condo was lovely and had a beautiful view. It is an easy walk to morning coffee. We did have a small issue with water and sewer being shut off on our last morning. We tried to get specific times from the owner, but never did. We ended up calling the contractor ourselves to get a time. Feel like that wasn’t my job to do. We ended up having to leave before regular check out time due to the shutoff.

Take the money and run!

Terrible communication, owner emailed us the night before we were leaving to inform us the a/c wasn't working. Found out they new about the a/c for at least 10 days! We should have been called and/or sent a text about this issue sooner and then we would have had time to make a change. 3 portable a/c units were put in the unit which we would have dealt with but they didn't work because the breaker kept tripping. The units blocked our view and we caused blinds to not close properly letting bright morning sun to come in 3 sleeping areas. Owners being on east coast didn't pick up the phone because they are sleeping when we are having an issue; while we can't sleep because it's too hot. There are two bedrooms not three. l would not recommend dealing with these unprofessional VRBO owners. We requested some compensation/refund but didn't receive anything. We spent 2 nights without a/c, an extension cord was left at the door on 3rd day. Between the 3 big noisy units and extension cord we had to deal with, the situation that was not ideal. Owners should have done the right thing and refunded us some of the money for our inconvenience.

Beautiful condo marred by AC issues

The condominium was beautiful and well renovated, my family and I loved the deck/lanai. Unfortunately we had issues with the AC. We contacted the owners through VRBO but they live on the east coast and this made communication difficult. All communication was through text, calls were not returned. The lack of a property manager on the island made this issue difficult to work out as by the time we communicated there was a a statement of getting an hvac person out but I did not want to wait or allow them entry by code while our luggage was there.

Absolutely fantastic

The condo was amazing and right on the water. The sunsets were fabulous. The beach next door was rocky so we didn’t get in but the surfers were out everyday. We could easily see yellow fish in the water so I’m sure the snorkeling would have been great but too rough for our taste. Nice easy walk into town for coffee and dinners. No need to drive unless you’re exploring the rest of the island (which I recommend).
