About this property

Kona Reef D24 - Direct Ocean Front Condo - Private Lanai - Next to Honl's Beach.

Welcome to our beautifully decorated ocean front condo in paradise - Kona Reef D-24.

Our condo is our home away from home, so we respectfully request a maximum of 2 adult guests and no children under 18.

Whether this is your first trip to Kailua-Kona or you are a frequent visitor to the island, our condo at Kona Reef Resort will definitely be your favorite place to stay.

Our condo is only 23 feet from the water and the 3rd floor views from the lanai are absolutely mesmerizing. You will find yourself drawn to the views from the lanai from dawn till dusk, and with the sounds of the surf, warm tropical breezes and the views of the ocean, you will soon find a soothing sense of calm begin to take over.

Our private lanai hosts a bar height table and chairs, plus a super comfy lounge and a side table. Most mornings while sitting on the lanai and drinking a steamy mug of incredible Kona coffee, a few of the local surfers will be out in front of the condo catching the morning waves, and by the time the sun comes over the volcano, more often than not a pod of spinner dolphins will pass through on their early morning trek.

Early on Wednesdays and Saturdays mornings, cruise ships will pass directly in front of the condo and dock in Kailua- Kona for the day and then sail off to Lahaina, Maui as the sun begins to set. The humpback whales (na kohola) visit Hawaii every year from November until early May and some have even been spotted from the lanai.

Once your day begins to wind down, you will find yourself anxiously waiting for the stunning sunsets that Hawaii is famous for.

Please take a look at our website for additional photos and information on the condo and surrounding areas. Click on the owner info tab and scroll to the bottom of the page.
If this condo is not available, please take a look at our other condo Kona Reef A22 which is also a 3rd floor ocean front condo.

Absolutely Perfect Oceanfront Stay in Kona!

From the moment we arrived just before sunset, we were blown away by the breathtaking ocean view—an absolutely perfect welcome to paradise. The condo was spotless, beautifully updated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need (and more!). We especially loved the high-top table on the lanai, which provided an unobstructed view of the ocean. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making for restful nights after days of adventure.One of the best surprises was the refreshing natural cross breeze, especially after sunset. Coming from a colder climate, we absolutely loved the fresh ocean air and never needed to use the AC at night—it felt incredible!The location couldn’t have been better. Just a short walk down the road, we had easy access to great shops and restaurants.KaCee and Kurt had wonderful communication throughout our stay, making sure we had everything we needed for a seamless experience. Would love to stay here again next time we are in Kona!

Beautiful lanai view

This condo is exactly like the pictures. It is updated and clean. The view from the lanai is incredible. We were able to see whales and spinner dolphins as well as surfers. The location is ideal for walking to restaurants and stores. The owners kept in contact with us and have provided all the necessities for a comfortable stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Views & Location!

The condo is great! Location is perfect, walking distance to the restaurants and shops. The view from the lanai is breathtaking….we weren’t there for whale season unfortunately just a couple of weeks early, but we saw dolphins, surfers and the cruise ships! Beach towels and chairs are provided, parking was always available and the bed was very comfortable! Correspondence with the hosts Kurt & KaCee was also good.

Going to IWC in Kona

Nice condo, with a superb ocean view over the Kona bay. Exquisite sunsets guaranteed. Fully equipped. Very calm and less than 1 km away from Kona village. Nice deco inside the condo. All instructions to enter where clear (did have to call). 1 thing to improve : floor was dusty when I arrived (had to wash to the floor), q

So Relaxing!

Great property. Older complex but our unit was modern and very clean. View from balcony is what every Hawaii visitor wants. Owner so easy to contact and quick responses. Would definitely stay there again. Only challenge can be parking if you return after 8 PM. Underground spots available but tight fit for medium to large autos.

Relaxing Stay

The condo was wonderful. We loved all of the Hawaiian decor. The owner did a great job decorating the unit. It is very comfortable and homey. The owners thought of everything that you would need to make your stay very convenient including a cooler, beach chairs and beach towels. The ocean view was amazing. The proximity to downtown Kona was within walking distance. We really enjoyed staying there. Looking forward to coming back in a year or two.

Kona Paradise

The view is the first thing that grabs your attention when you walk in. It is simply astounding. The ocean couldn't be any closer. After we pulled ourselves back into the condo from the lanai we were so pleased with everything. It was just right. Details-nice bed although a bit tall for short me (5'2") I used a stool to give myself a boost into bed. Truly not a problem. The shower is a great walk in size (room for 2) with a nice shower head. Kitchen is well equipped. We cooked alot. The view was so great we didn't want to miss any sunsets. Nice washer and dryer. The pool very nice, I was in it most evenings. Honls beach right next door was great for dipping your toes in the ocean. To rough to swim there unless you surf. Plenty of swimming beachs near by. Our favorite was Waikoloa. We never used the AC just open the back door, front door (with locking security screen) and open the bedroom windows to let in the breeze. We were there in March and saw whales and dolphins from the lania!!! Can't wait to go back. Aloha.

Wonderful time!

Loved the condo and the location!! Beautiful view of the bay and just a short walk to downtown Kona's many shops, restaurants and activities. The condo itself was very comfortable, beautifully decorated, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The managers were very helpful and welcoming. The only negative about the unit itself was that the cleaning crew must not have mopped the floors before we got there because our feet turned black after walking on it. The only negative about the property was that it was noisy due to the lack of insulation. Overall, we loved staying here and wouldn't hesitate to return!

About the host

Hosted by KaCee & Kurt Nord

Host profile image
We are Kurt & KaCee from San Luis Obispo, California and have been coming to Hawaii every year, a few times a year, for over 15 years. Enjoying the combination of year round perfect weather and the Aloha spirit of Hawaii. We purchased this wonderful condo at Kona Reef Resort and welcome you to experience the Spirit of Aloha, hoping that you will continue to return and stay with us over the coming years.

Why they chose this property

Hawaii is a magical place. A place and a spirit that words can not describe. One must experience this feeling, called Aloha, to understand. Most people say they just 'feel' better, healthier, and more alive here in Paradise. We found the uncrowded beaches and small town atmosphere of Kona a relaxing family-style vacation destination to soak up the true Aloha. While the other Hawaiian islands all have their unique charm, The Big Island has spoken to us and we can now call it our second home.

What makes this property unique

Awesome Ocean Front Lanai Views!
Easy walking distance to historic Kailua Village along the quiet side street (Kahakai road) past the Royal Kona Resort, Don the Beachcomber and Huggo’s Restaurant, you'll find yourself strolling down Alii drive a sea wall apart from the crystal clear Pacific Ocean arriving in historic Kailua Village. Right next door, only a few steps away from the condo is sandy Honl's Beach a great spot for sunning, shade trees for napping and a favorite spot to watch local surfers and boogie boarders.
