About this property

Hidden Paradise Found with Aloha Spirit and Great Summer Rates! Weekly discount

Cleaner is Covid 19 safety trained. Celebrate the best in indoor/outdoor living in this spacious and well-kept ground floor unit in Keauhou Akahi! Conveniently situated on south Ali’i drive, the condo is 1/3 mile from Keauhou bay and less than one mile from the Keauhou Shopping center. Unlike northern Kona, Keauhou is very lush and green - it is where the Hawaiian Royalty, the Ali’i, once spent their leisure time! This sought-after location is perfect for golfers, cyclists, fishermen, water sports-enthusiasts and adventure seekers, as well as those desiring some well-deserved R&R. The Kona coast is the drier part of the island - less rain = more fun for you!

Being a ground level unit, the natural breeze keeps the condo cool and comfortable year round. A fully equipped kitchen will allow you to take advantage of the island’s fresh produce and fish while viewing the sunset. Extra linens and beach towels are available at your convenience.

The covered lanai has a gas BBQ, ample outdoor seating, and a retractable sun shade, with splendid ocean views. One advantage of this unit is the private garden - where you will find beautiful flowers and herbs growing, birds enjoying the birdbath and geckoes climbing the drainpipes. The grounds are very well kept with mature landscaping, reminiscent of a botanical garden. Across the driveway, the saline pool is picturesquely situated on the Kona Country Club. Watch golfers tee off at the 9th hole you soak up the sun poolside. Rinse off from the ocean or beach in the open-air hot/cold shower adjacent to the pool.

In this location, a car isn’t a necessity; but if you do, there is secure and shady parking nearby the unit. Both the Hele-On bus and the Keahou Resort open-air trolley stop close by on Ali’i Drive. Many local beaches and attractions are accessible via public transit. The Keahou shopping center has everything you will need - grocery and drug stores, farmer’s market, cinema, post office and restaurants.

Indulge your senses in local finds from the twice weekly farmer’s markets, each in walking distance. Go taste freshly roasted Kona coffee at a local plantation. Snorkel in crystal-clear Kahalu'u bay. Watch dolphins from an outrigger canoe. Visit the historical City of Refuge. Cycle on the same roads as the Ironman. Explore the ocean on a stand up paddle board. Fish for tuna. Visit the vivacious live volcano. Swim with manta rays. Be awakened by soft bird song. Experience the magnificent Hawaiian sunset. This is YOUR paradise!

Let this condo be the home base in Hawaii - this is where your Big Island adventures begin! Contact us today for special summer rates!

Great location and nicely stocked up

This was an excellent home base for a snorkeling vacation. The two queen beds (one of them a comfortable Murphy bed) make it best for two couples. Diane, the owner is responsive and helpful. She gave us good information about the area along with complete details for the condo. A lock box system with another keys available made access efficient. The listing describes two distinct bedrooms. The pictures confused us on the sleeping arrangements. The “living area” is the second bedroom. (Louvered sliders and blinds block light but not sound. This accessory room isn’t a regular bedroom. It was comfortable for the person staying there. The fourth person slept on the sofa which was comfortable as well. She didn’t open it as a sofa bed.) The condo cools beautifully. Ceiling fans, good window screens, and screen doors provide efficient cross ventilating air flow. Wonderful. Especially good for snorklers, divers, and swimmers. Lots of hangers, a hook system on the patio, and a drying rack made it easy to dry swim suits, etc. The patio closet held very useful snorkeling gear. We borrowed fins and a mask that fit; we didn’t have to rent extra gear. The kitchen was also well equipped. Bountiful towels, linens, toilet paper, paper towels and more — the condo was very well stocked. The lush garden obscures the view of the ocean but we knew it was there. A lovely lime tree provided fresh juice for the papayas from the market. We had a fabulous vacation.

Wonderful place

This place is about 5-10 mins from downtown Kona. It is very convenient to get grocery, etc. from Costco, Walmart, supermarket, etc. Few cruises near by, 5 mins waking. My kids went to Outrigger to watch Manta Ray in the evening. Floor was little sticky when we arrived. We had Tiny bugs (fruit flies?). We were not sure where they came from. Electric kettle was rusted on the bottom and need to be replaced. Otherwise, this is a wonderful place to stay in Kona.

Our go-to lodging on the Big Island

This was our 5th visit to the Big Island and for the last 3 times we've stayed at this wonderful, ideally located, well stocked & verrry clean condo. You can feel the owners' TLC and their wanting to make visitors as comfortable as possible. Even on the rare gray days, the sunsets are merely fantastic. We're anxious to return again and again.

Love the complex and the condo

This condo is great if you are a slightly mobility impaired. There are no stairs, but you do have to walk around the building. The showers are easy to get into. There was a very comfortable queen size bed at a good height. Our friend slept on the Murphy bed and she said it was very comfortable also. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you will need to cook. There are a few extra spices which is great. I have rented in the complex five or six times over the years, different units and I will definitely come back to this condo again. Easy to communicate with the owners.

Special family trip

This was our first experience with vrbo and it was perfect for us. Diane, the Host was very helpful with directions, and instructions about the condo so it was very easy to locate the condo and get inside. It was exactly as described on the website. Everything was clean and ready to move in, all we had to do was unpack and go to the store for food. It is a very quiet place and friendly neighbors. Even though there was no AC there was usually a nice breeze and the ceiling fans kept it cool. The pool is near the unit, clean and very inviting. If we ever make it back to Kona we would for sure stay here again. Thanks again Diane for sharing your condo with our family and making our trip that much more special. Aloha, Willi and family

A pleasant stay

Nice place. Kinda odd layout with 2nd bedroom more of a dining room with blinds and sliding doors. Was very clean. Nice to have the 2 bathrooms. Kitchen well stocked. The beach chairs and snorkel stuff was pretty dated so we rented from Boss Frogs.

Awesome Condo

Diane was a great host, and was available for any questions. The condo was clean and very well equipped, all the beach toys and towels we could have needed. The master bedroom/bath was large and comfortable. The only thing I wish I had realized when booking was that the 2nd bedroom, is only separated from the kitchen by a vertical blind. And the livingroom by sliding doors. My teenagers would have liked a little more privacy.....I would highly recommend the condo and would definitely Italy rent it again.

Great stay for 2 Senior couples

This attractively-decorated ground-floor condo had plenty of space for us two Senior couples, a fully-equipped and well-stocked kitchen, plus a pleasant lanai. The location near Ali'i Drive is convenient for driving to stores, beaches, and attractions but also makes night traffic noise inevitable. Unusually hot & humid weather during our stay made us wish for air conditioning, not just the ample ceiling fans, until we figured out the improvement made by closing windows and lowering lanai blinds during the day. We also appreciated the owner's recommendations on activities and shopping.

We always hate to leave

Diane, your condo and its location is everything that you say it is. This was our 2nd time renting your place as it is so comfortable and located in an area that we also love, Keauhou Bay. Here we can be active as we want whether it be on the water or in it, running, walking or just plain observing the wildlife, flowers and sunsets. Thank you for sharing your happy place.

Beautiful Place!

Diane was a breeze to communicate with. Any needs that arose she got them taken care of immediately. The home is well stocked, the fridge, spices, and paper products. The cleaning could have been kicked up a notch. All the surfaces you touched had been cleaned. Under the beds and couches was quite a bit of dust and particles. In between dresser drawers and bathroom drawers there was a build up of dust. The road noise from the master bedroom is loud and carries right inside the windows. Also the trash and yard service ran twice in one week which was a lot of noise early as well. This was a great spot that took care of us for the week.

Weekend Stay in Kona

Very relaxing and pleasant. We drove to the Volcano which was long and tedious but worth the time. Many changes since I was there about in 1972. At that time you walked a long way very close to the edge while this time you were quite a way from the actual boiling lava. The 2018 eruption changed the area drastically. I warn people to bring a flashlight and raincoat with them if planning on walking down the trail at point 5. The only hitch was I locked the door the first night and then could not open it. I called the site manager about my situation and we were able to get it unlocked I called him to let him know not to come but actually left the message and talked to a person from Portland. Weird because my phone showed the caretakers nam on it.very pleased .

About the host

Hosted by Diane Neubert

Host profile image
We retired, bought this condo and started having the best times of our lives! I never thought I would be racing outrigger canoes at my age, but wow what fun it has been! We spent the first 4 months or so here without a car and the location is so perfect for walking or biking to whatever you need. We have 2 daughters and 5 grandchildren in CA so we go back and forth and open up the condo to others when we're not here. Life is Good!

Why they chose this property

We chose this complex because of the beautiful peaceful grounds, friendly neighbors and we had already fallen in love with Keauhou Bay and were so excited to find a place so close to it. We love having the grocery store so close and a post office, movie theater and pharmacy within walking distance. We like the fact that there are only 48 units here and that it has a secluded off the beaten path feel to it.

What makes this property unique

My favorite benefit is to walk to the ocean and enjoy it's beauty. I've fallen in love with outrigger canoe paddling and get on the water almost every day without getting in a car. My grandchildren absolutely love the pool here. Keauhou Akahi has a wonderful feeling to it-it feels like a little hometown.
