Wrong unit but still lovely!

We did not receive the unit that was advertised, but it was still ocean front and we were only staying for one night so it was fine for us. Great location, I’d definitely stay here again!

Great location & clean

We stayed here for 8 days the location is great and the unit was very clean. An excellent place for the cost. The negatives are its a 3rd floor walk up so if you have arthritis in your knees it would have been nice to know. And the big issue for us that made us leave and pay for another hotel our last 2 days was the mattress, it is VERY firm like sleeping on a concrete slap, worst mattress I've ever laid on. If you like an extra firm bed this place is excellent.

Perfect Quick Stay

Just stayed one night to be close to the airport. Location was absolutely perfect. So close to everything Kona had to offer. Walking distance to most places. Would recommend even if we had stayed longer. We spent most our time on the Hilo/Pahoa side but this was a perfect end to our trip. 10/10

Nice but....

Overall, the rental is decent. Small but decent. Overall, it was clean. Where the tile touched the floor in the bathroom and shower was pretty icky. Check in was easy ONCE we located the correct building. The GPS took us to the condos nextdoor. Luckily, the landlord and a nice resident figured all this out for us! The host is very responsive and helpful! confusion
