Kona Reef D37
The place was nice. The view is great. I would make a suggestion to the owner to maybe purchase some plastic plates or something so you can have dinner down at the bbq area since they don’t allow glass. The main bed and the fold out bed are horrible and should be replaced. The runner carpets in hallway and kitchen are in desperate need of cleaning. Only other suggestion would be some nice beach chairs and a usable ice chest would be nice. For the cost of rental I think they could afford more than a styrofoam ice chest. Overall a great place to stay.

Incredible view
Great location. The homeless camp at the driveway is an eye sore. The bedroom carpet was disgusting. Looks like blood or wine stains. Bed was comfortable. Great views. Close to town. Comfy furniture. Have to take stairs after the elevator. Had problem with management Co. Sending us an email saying we smoked in the unit. Took time to straighten that out. It was meant for previous guest.

Average Condo in Kona - Beware Location Accuracy
Since it had obviously been a while since my last time in Kona, I did my due diligence & did a LOT of research before booking a place to stay during my time on the Big Island. My companion knew that I was reading 2022 travel books, researching online, so she deferred to me. What we found at Kona Reef was meh to a disappointment. In the end, my friend & I felt lied to, & I was embarrassed that it looked like I chose a less-than-ideal place for us: -The condo DEFINITELY showed signs of wear-&-tear. There was a huge crack in the ceiling in the closet, there was what looked like dirt/mold on the blurry bathroom mirror, I could go on & on. It was serviceable, but definitely something I was embarrassed to write home about. Most egregiously, if we weren't enjoying the accommodations for the insides, we hoped we would at least have the outside & location. We did not. At the time of booking (& I confirmed this with a friend of mine who is a pseudo-travel agent), VRBO showed the property on the map as very close to the Courtyard by Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel side of Ali'i Dr, near/on the main downtown strip. We purposefully chose this condo because there were sites & restaurants that we wanted to try near that hotel, & we didn't want to deal with parking/reparking - we wanted everything to be walking distance. We were shocked to discover that the condo was not as advertised, but was actually close to the Royal Kona Resort, MUCH further down on Ali'i & not at all like on the map the listing showed. My friend has a back problem, so this location (25-40 mins walking) was NOT walking distance from the sites we wanted to visit, so we were forced to deal with parking, parking fees, all of that - the things we wanted to avoid in the 1st place. For how much we paid, & with ALL the VRBO fees, I expected to get what was advertised on the listing, & we simply did not. Frankly, it was embarrassing for me to try & explain to my friend why we were staying somewhere that didn't match with our expectations, & I feel lied to by VRBO. I make frequent trips to Hawaii, & I have never felt lied to/not gotten what I paid for. It was one of the most "meh" condos I've stayed at (definitely in need of multiple touch ups), but on top of that, I felt swindled. I'm embarrassed & upset, & I hope this review helps others to NOT be taken by a listing that simply doesn't match up with the reality, which is why I will not be recommending VRBO to family and friends.

Aloha Andrew, Mahalo for taking the time to leave a review on your stay in our property. When viewing the listing, it's photos, and descriptions - D37 is not advertised as an updated unit. We manage units in all price points and those that are more cost friendly are primarily older units. However, all of our properties are up-kept and professionally cleaned. The unit is still ocean front which does also factor in to the rate. The "dirt/mold on the blurry bathroom mirror" are most likely mirror spots that commonly develop in ocean front properties due to the high salt content in the air. As for the crack in the closet ceiling, we'll be assessing this. We weren't aware of that. In the future, when booking please call our office - we are here on island and have more knowledge of the area than a travel agent would. The online maps are not always accurate although the address we input is correct. This is why we specifically advise not to follow Google maps or GPS in our check in directions. Kona Reef is close to a handful of restaurants and shops within 5-minutes walking distance but we would have been happy to find a property closer to the area of your preference. Mahalo for choosing Kona Coast Vacations.

Amazing location and more amazing views!
I literally did hours of research before deciding on this property and was not disappointed! I chose this property because of the amazing view and its proximity and walking distance into town. The management company and check in process was flawless. They did a great job communicating ahead of time and answered all of my questions. The condo is exactly as described and the view is absolutely breathtaking. We enjoyed watching the surfers and were able to enjoy the sunset right from our balcony. I don’t think there is a spot in town that has a better view. The location of the condo was perfect walking distance into town for a drink, shops and lots of restaurants. Also Loved that we were right next-door to a small beach

Our stay in this location was great! The view from the balcony was so beautiful! We spent a lot of time enjoying the view and the sound of the ocean. The condo was comfortable and in a great location. Walking distance to downtown Kona and convenient to all the sights on this side of the Island.

Great location and Gorgeous views!
We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Kona Reef. It was a quick walk to downtown Kona and the views from our lanai were so beautiful! We saw surfers everyday, paddle boarders, parasails, and every size of boat from kayaks to a cruise ship. My only recommendation would be to add a mattress topper to the bed as it is a bit too firm.

a little outdated, but we knew that
We knew from the photos that the condo would be a little dated, but for the price, we were fine with that. However, the bed could use a new mattress or at least a topper and the couch really needs to be replaced. It is so sunken and uncomfortable. We eventually brought the lanai furniture inside to watch tv as it was more comfortable. Saying that, we were fine with it. The condo is all about location and view and the majority of our time was spent outside. When we first got there, the condo smelled very musty so it may not have been rented out of for a bit, but we bought some room spray and it was fine. There were so many towels and lots of extras which we thought was great. We'd definitely stay in this condo again

The location of the property was amazing! Right on the waterfront with loud waves crashing and great ocean sound. It was easily walkable to all restaurants, stores and downtown. The pool area was great for grilling and having dinner out by the pool. The air conditioner really cooled the place down when needed. The kitchen was stocked with all things needed to cook.
