Banyan Tree Happiness
We loved staying at this very special oceanfront complex. The unit was a bit dated but the price was right for our 10 day stay! Kona Coffee on the Lanai is the best as the sun appears on the ocean. The view fantastic for sunsets, watching surfers, paddlers and ocean surprises …dolphins. Would have loved to see a whale or two, but our stay was a bit early for whale season. Yes, recommend this unit during winter months as there is no a/c.

Quiet area and beautiful sunsets
We enjoyed staying at this condo. We took some wonderful sunset pictures, and we often had the pool to ourselves. It definitely was the best place for surfers since we were able to watch them sunrise to sunset from our lanai. We even saw dolphins! No air conditioning, and it was very warm when we arrived. It helped to keep the sliding doors open during the night, and then close up the windows and blinds in the morning. Another fan would have been appreciated since one of them didn't work. (I left a note for housekeeping.) Lots to see in the area.

Loved this place! Perfect vacation.
We (4 adults) spent 2 weeks on the Big Island and this was the perfect place. Everyday all day entertainment just outside our balcony by the surfing regulars of Kona ; perfect sunsets, including one green flash ; convenient, dedicated parking space, appliances, scuba gear, and all kinds of amenities, great beds, beautiful hawaiian furniture and artwork on the walls ; fabulous uncrowded common area, also facing the sunset with a lovely pool, hot tub and barbeque setup.

Great ocean view place!
My friend and I stayed for a week here and the view is absolutely breathtaking. You get to see the sun set over the ocean every night. And usually lots of surfers are out as well. It's a bit of a drive to get to the prettiest beaches on the island, but other than that the location is close enough to town. We enjoyed our stay!

Everything we wanted
This VRBO could benefit from some cosmetic updating, but it’s obviously well cared for and immediately cleaned. The huge windows provide a great view of the Banyan surf spot which appears to be popular from sunrise to sunset. Speaking of sunsets, they were spectacular as well. We would definitely stay here again.

AMAZING!!!
This property was PERFECT! The view is unbeatable - worth every penny on it's own! Abby, the property manager, went above and beyond to accommodate us (and my often demanding in-laws...sorry Abby!!!!!!). The apartment is well furnished, comfortable, and had everything we needed for an extended stay. The grounds are magnificent and the pool area is perfect. I would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great view, location and very comfortable
This condo has a great location on the oceanfront and not far from town. We found the recliner, swivel chairs to be very comfortable which is really important to us. The unit was very well equipped including two beach chairs, a beach umbrella and a boogie board. The unit was quiet except for the ocean waves which we enjoyed. There is no AC but the ocean breeze and fans kept us quite comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice warm getaway.
The pros of our stay were the location, oceanfront with a swimming pool and assigned covered parking. The cons were (for the street side bedroom) traffic and neighbor noise and the rooster crowing (and not just at Sun up). We have stayed at this location multiple times and enjoy the pros over other locations. Floor plans are generally very similar and not as busy as the larger buildings. The unit we were in was in need of some minor maintenance and upgrades, but was the best rate of all the rest of the units and our visit and memories more than made up for any minor inconveniences.

Excellent vacation rental
Comfortable, well maintained unit in convenient location. Close to Kona while far enough away from tourist hubbub. Close to Kahaluu Beach for awesome snorkeling (get there early). Great view of the ocean and a nice pool to swim in and lounge around along side the inexorable and melodious waves. Frequent Spinner dolphin and occasional whale sitings from the lanai. Have stayed here before and hope to again. All in all, a marvelous place. Of note, the owner/property manager should be aware that window adjacent sliding glass door leaks from the top during windswept rain.

On Top of the Ocean!
This was a great property to stay in, especially if you like to be near the ocean. When you enter the place you feel like you are on a boat as the main windows are above the sea. It is also a favorite surfer spot so plenty of free entertainment from the deck. Unit is well supplied for all you need on your Hawaiian vacation. Host is quick to respond. A few downsides - very old furniture, including a couch that is almost unusable, unit does get hot (but sunshades on window provided and can open windows/screens), and an insane amount of property rules. However, if you love the sound, sight, and smell of the ocean this place can't be beat! There were just 2 of us but can fit 4 comfortably. For what you get it is a pretty good deal for being oceanfront.

Perfect!
This condo was perfect for my family of four. The kitchen was fully equipped, and they had everything we needed for the beach (chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, bamboo mats, beach towels, much appreciated thank you!). We were there in July with temperatures in the 90s and the fans kept the place cool. I thought we would miss having A/C, but seriously this place was great without it. The view out the wall of windows facing the ocean was incredible. Sometimes it was hard to leave the condo to go exploring because it was so comfortable and relaxing there. =) The condo has lots of nice touches, it really feels homey, not just a sterile condo. And the best part -- falling asleep to the sound of the waves. We met several people who live full time in the complex, and they were all really friendly, and gave us great tips on where to go on the island. This is a great condo and I really hope to stay here again someday.

Stop looking and book!
I only wish I could attach pictures to my review, the view is incredible! Beyond stunning sunsets, surfers to watch all day, relaxing ocean sounds all night had us leaving the windows open at all times. Centrally located enough, but far enough away from the tourist row. Short distance to Magic Sands Beach, and anything else you’d want to do in Kona. Pool was always available for use and virtually empty. Hot tub at sunset never got old. Furnished just enough for our needs, kitchen had anything we wanted/needed. Bed was very comfortable, but we spent most of our time in the unit out on the patio. We were concerned about the no air conditioning but took a chance, and the beautiful ocean breeze and fans kept air flowing, and we were never too hot or missed the a/c. We’ve already shared with all of our family and encourage everyone to take advantage of this steal of a deal. Other units in the same building are triple what this one is and it has been my favorite stay. We will DEFINITELY be back and booking again. The pictures and the listing don’t do it justice … The views. Trust me. 10/10

Banyans condo
Just an excellent place to stay! Photos are representative of the property - the view as you walk in is just stunning! The area on Alii Drive is a good location - we walked to Magic Sands for lunch, but otherwise is a little far to walk to town. I brought my bike along and it's a great, fast ride. The elevator is keyed in so safety was good, very secure building. Also convenient to Keahou shopping center, if you're headed south. Abby worked to get me a little earlier check-in, and she left an orchid lei for me, as this was a memorial trip for my brother. My first morning the toilet plugged up, but the staff was very responsive, had it repaired that afternoon (impossible to get repairs done on this island in a timely manner, so this was super fast). Kitchen was a little cramped for 3 of us working in there, but well equipped. It's vacation, no need to cook other meals. Big fridge, good for leftovers. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning, enjoying the view and watching the surfers. Banyans Beach is next door, but it's a surf spot, not okay for swimmers. Kona was overcast most afternoons, so the condo was not unbearable, quite comfortable. July is not the hottest month, but we didn't need AC, fans were adequate. Nice pool, we didn't use the spa. If I had to think of something to complain about, the surf pounding on the rocks below kept me awake until I got used to it, and it was a full moon so it was BRIGHT as it sank into the ocean. Sure I could get up & close the door and drapes, but what's the point of that?! I live in Hilo on the east side, I would definitely stay here again. LOVED it!

Great view, comfortable furnishings but a little too hot
We enjoyed our stay in unit 304. The unit was clean and comfortable, although it's a bit dated and worn (countertops, tub caulking) and was plenty spacious for our party of 4. It was nice to have two full bathrooms and a washer and dryer in the unit. Check in and communication with the manager were smooth and efficient. (Manager was very responsive and helpful with smoke detector/ battery replacement that was needed). The location on Alli Drive was perfect, close to everything in the Kailua Kona area. The view and the sound of the waves was the highlight. However, I wouldn't stay in this unit again because it just got way too hot during most of the day and barely cooled off enough in the evening to sleep. The unit needs air conditioning. I've stayed oceanside other places before without air conditioning so thought it would be okay despite reviews from others on this topic but this wasn't breezy enough and there weren't enough fans to make it work. The owner should at least get a few standing fans for the rooms if installing an air conditioner isn't possible.
