Reviewer Comments: This is a great unit, on the corner where you have an oceanfront view and can overlook the pool/hot tub area. We had a toilet "issue" but the plumber came faster than we could hope to ever get a plumber on the mainland. My husband and I were celebrating our 40th anniversary while my sister and her husband were celebrating their first anniversary (both previously widowed) so we all had much to celebrate and had a great time. We plan to reserve a vacation in this unit again next year ! ##### Teresa D. Stayed 14 nights in Jan 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Evette A. Aug 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Breath taking ocean views from lanai, crashing waves to fall asleep to! Beautiful ocean views from every room in the condo! We would watch the turtles every morning eat breakfast. Huge swell hit while we were here and we watched surfers catch some amazing huge waves! Short walk to cute quaint town with food, entertainment, music, shopping and dessert. Fish market (definitely a must if you like seafood!) 1 mile away, kitchen fully stocked so we were able to enjoy some amazing dinners! Farmer market is within walking distance, the fruit was absolutely amazing! Way better than Safeway! However Safeway, target and Costco are conveniently located within a 10 min drive so you can get anything you need! Location location location! The condo provided our family with the perfect amount of room! The pool and jacuzzi are amazing, well kept! We are saving this one and we will definitely come back again! Highly recommend! ##### Evette A. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Joe F. Sep 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great view, But... If it wasn't for the view, the location and the attentiveness of the staff and host, this would be @ 2 stars at best. The view is unmatched and the location to town is incredibly convenient. However, when we arrived the A/C was turned off as well as the ceiling fans and the internet router was unplugged. The first night was uncomfortably warm and we discovered it was partly because 2 of the 3 ceilings fans were only able to go at low speed. We were able to have the fans replaced and all was well in the end. Now that the fans have been replaced I would recommend this unit to others. Slightly dated and worn but for us the view made up for that. ##### Joe F. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robert B. Mar 6, 2019 #### great view but aging condo We have been coming to Kona for 40 years and this condo has a great view and is close to the ocean. However unit is aging. Climate control is poor and the couch sagging. Plumbing fixtures installed backwards and old. One small A/C unit does not cool the entire unit. The management co is a big co but they did get us in early on our arrival day. That was a pleasant surprise since our previous dealings with them were not really responsive to our needs. Some minor construction going on but not a big issue. Really needs a major overhaul. But come for the view and enjoy the ocean. ##### Robert B.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented 5 units at Kona Reef to accommodate my extended family. A27 was the very best of all of them! It was not only clean & beautiful, it was stocked with lots of extras. Nice cookware, dishes, paper towels, toilet paper, salt & pepper & even syrup for our pancakes. Great view & beautiful place just like the photos show. The only thing I would say was lacking was the couch. It was not very comfortable to sit on & one of the kids slept on it one night when she wanted to sleep where it was a little cooler & said it was terribly uncomfortable. However, this will not deter us from renting this unit again! Everything else was fabulous! ##### Conny S.

We always leave some activities to do for the next visit. The condo was very nice and is being updated. I just hope you don't get rid of that wonderful sectional sofa....that is one if the reasons that I chose this condo. Maybe it could be re-covered when needed ??? New window coverings have been ordered. The master bath needs some work...a better commode and sink faucets,etc. A screen door on the entry would be nice so it could be locked for better security instead of leaving the door open for ventilation. Overall a great unit. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rina R.

It was absolutely perfect for our family. Everyone at the complex was incredibly friendly. One of the highlights of our stay was the tide pools. The were teeming with fish, and we had so much fun watching them. The location couldn't be beat. Restaurants everywhere and the food is fantastic. Thank you! ##### Rina R.

The panoramic views from this condo are breathtaking and never get old. From watching early morning surfers to midday fish and sunsets in the evening, there is always something mesmerizing to watch. We also saw multiple whales every day from the lanai (which was way better than our whale watching tour!). The condo itself is clean, comfortable, stylish, and well stocked. It is evident that the owners have put a lot of thought and care into the space. Further, the location is just a short walk to downtown Kona where we went daily for coffee, acai bowls, or happy hour. We even walked to 2 different farmer's markets to stock up on local produce. We can't wait to come back! ##### Joy A.

Nov 17, 2024 #### Great Facilitu The unit is probably the best or one of the best at Kona Reef. With upgrades now being completed it will be a dream vacation location. ##### Stephen S. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Hawaiian-Village-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13857.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Royal Sea Cliff](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Royal-Sea-Cliff.h1060302.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston Kona by the Sea](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Aston-Kona-By-The-Sea.h19443.Hotel-Information) > > [Kona Coast Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Kona-Coast-Resort.h580914.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Shore Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Park-Shore-Waikiki.h13853.Hotel-Information) > > [The Twin Fin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Twin-Fin-Hotel.h34498.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Mauna Loa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Mauna-Loa-Village.h1060311.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Maui-At-Wailea.h14336.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Sea Cliff Kona by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Royal-Sea-Cliff-Kona-By-OUTRIGGER.h7733.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Reef-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h23249.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Waikiki-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h5306.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Wailea Maui, A Waldorf Astoria Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Grand-Wailea-Maui.h7867.Hotel-Information) > > [Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort & Spa, Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Moana-Surfrider.h15534.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13791.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Kona](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Kona-Hawaiian-Resort.h1060278.Hotel-Information) > > [Prince Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Prince-Waikiki.h287.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kona Bali Kai](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Hotel-Kona-Bali-Kai.h36447226.Hotel-Information) > > [Holua Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Holua-Resort.h890813.Hotel-Information) > > [Wailea Beach Resort - Marriott, Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Wailea-Beach-Resort-Marriott.h20303.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Waikiki-Beach.h2766.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Sheraton-Waikiki.h7385.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Waikiki-Beach.h25227.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Kea Lani Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Fairmont-Kea-Lani-Maui.h8765.Hotel-Information) > > [Kanaloa at Kona by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Kanaloa-At-Kona-By-OUTRIGGER.h28501.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Kanaloa at Kona](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Kanaloa-At-Kona-By-Castle.h11518173.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Waikiki.h7795.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Princess Kaiulani Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Sheraton-Princess-Kaiulani.h18246.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Kona Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Kona-Hotels-Outrigger-Kona-Resort-And-Spa.h49175916.Hotel-Information) > > ['Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Alohilani-Resort-Waikiki-Beach.h21781.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Waikiki-Beach-Resort-Spa.h19988.Hotel-Information)
