It was hard to leave the patio after morning cofee. View was fabulous! Felt very comfortable at the condo. Lots of little extras to make us feel at home. Lucked out on the weather so we didn't even need to use the fans. Loved staying south of Kona near my favorite snorkeling spot Kahalulu beach. Thanks for a great stay. ##### Elaine M.

The kitchen was well-stocked with dishware, utensils and spices galore! Laundry soap provided by past guests. The owner had a guestbook which provided a wealth of information from past guests. (We signed it too!) No A/C but plenty of ceiling fans kept us comfy. Nice pool and golf course on site. Highly recommend! ##### Thomas S. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis R. 10 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quiet, peaceful setting We had a wonderful stay at this condo. The location was just perfect for all the things we did and the setting on the golf course looking out at the ocean was beautiful. We were on the go a lot but found ourselves lingering longer and longer on the lanai with either our morning coffee or evening cocktails. The king size bed was comfortable and there are two full bathrooms in the unit. We have stayed in many VRBO units and we found this one to be exceptionally well stocked. The kitchen has spices, staples, paper towel, plastic wrap and any cooking utensil you might need. It was wonderful to have a washer and dryer in the unit. The pool is on the small size but a real bonus on a hot day. There are lots of windows and fans so we were very comfortable without a/c. We would not hesitate to stay again if we are blessed enough to be able to come back to Hawaii! ##### Dennis R. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert T. 20 Dec 2018 #### Wonderful place to call home in Kona Hawaii We enjoyed our home in Kona at Denise's condo. First, the location is excellent. With the Kona Country Club in your back yard and the ocean beyond that. This condo at Keauhou Akahi is perfectly located. It's at the southern end of Alii Drive so it's more quiet than the north end of Alii Drive. But all the shops and restaurants in Kona are a very short drive. The best of both worlds. The condo itself it very comfortable and well stocked. The beach chairs and beach gear is provided. The grill on the patio gives you dinner options. And the pool at Keauhou Akahi is steps away from the condo. We highly recommend this condo for your home away from home in Kona. Aloha. Bob & Kori ##### Robert T. Stayed 14 nights in Dec 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Melanie 9 Sept 2022 Disliked: Amenities The location is good with beautiful views of the sunset. Unfortunately, there is no air conditioning. I wish that had been stated in the listing because it was very hot and humid. There were also quite a few dead roaches and worms and a few live roaches we disposed of. Also, there were no beach chairs or snorkel gear as stated in the listing. We couldn't take the heat. We ended up staying only 2 nights and completed our vacation at the Outrigger resort right next door. ##### Melanie Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra D., Phoenix, AZ. USA 9 Feb 2018 #### Very nice condo with wonderful views This condo is just 15 minutes from downtown Kona located on the 9th hole of the Kona Country Club with golf and ocean views. Well stocked with anything you might need for your stay from the kitchen to the ocean. The bed was very comfortable, and tho no air conditioning, it wasn’t needed. The ocean breezes keep you cool. The area is quiet and the Lanai a perfect place to watch the sunset and have your dinner. Denise was more than helpful when asked about staying a couple extra hours or answering questions. The manager, Tom, a great guy, but just retired. Hopefully they will have as much luck with the new property manager. I would come back to this little slice of paradise in a heartbeat. Thank you Denise for sharing your home. ##### Sandra D.

Aboslutely loved it. The unit is close to the beach and the shopping centers as well as the Kailua Village where most vacationers hang-out. The view from backyard was breathtaking overlooking the golf course and ocean. I highly recommend this place for people who want to be close to actions but appreciate some quietness and privacy to enjoy the paradise. The unit itself is well decorated and the kitchen is fully equipped with everything we may need to cook. Eating home-cooked dinner at the patio while watching the sunset was definitely the highlight of our stay. Also there are very few of the one bedroom units come with 2 full bathroom. We are family of 3 and really love the fact that there is no waiting line for the showers in the morning or coming back from the beach. ##### Jennifer J. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol D. 14 Mar 2019 #### A lovely spot to see whales and sunsets! We totally enjoyed our 3 weeks in this condo. Spent the majority of our time on the lanai enjoying the views. Saw many whales and loved the wildlife. We fed the birds oatmeal and the goldfinches, red caps, doves, cardinals and others with no names were fun to watch. Two times we were visited by a pair of pheasants that came right to our door! Saw the mongoose that lives in the rock pile. This condo was well stocked and even had some condiments in the fridge for our use. Made use of the washer and dryer several times. The bedroom has a very comfortable king bed. Bring earplugs if early noise bothers you because being on a golf course means early mornings for the maintenance crews! All in all a wonderful stay...Mahalo for letting us enjoy your piece of paradise! ##### Carol D. Stayed 21 nights in Feb 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Katie A. 9 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Bugs! Not as expected Bugs! There was a huge issue with bugs in this condo. The first night a cockroach crawled out from under the pillow onto my arm. The pest control was scheduled to come the following day but did not help. Lots of flying cockroaches and gnats, the entire week of our stay! We have stayed in Hawaii many times and have never experienced this kind of discomfort. The owner was apologetic and sent a $100 gift card as a credit for our uncomfortable stay. While this was nice, I much rather would have had an accurate description of the condo before. This was the absolute worst part of our Hawaiian vacation. ##### Katie A.

The Big Island was the first of our Hawaii travels. My husband & I agree that the Big Island is our favorite island. We definitely felt right at home from day one. We absolutely loved staying at Denise's condo. It was central to our daily activities. Quiet location with great ocean views. The accommodations were perfect for us. Nice king-sized bed, 2 bathrooms (1 for each of us), roomy kitchen/living room. With the lanai on the ground floor, we could walk out to our "yard" and feed the birds. Each morning a wild pheasant would "call" my husband out to feed him on the lanai. Before we left, the pheasant was eating out of my husbands' hand! Having the grill on the lanai was so much nicer than having to cook in a grilling area as we found in so many places. It truly felt like our home away from home and Denise is terrific in communicating and making you feel like a friend. Next time we travel to the Big Island, we will look no further than Denise's condo! Thanks so much Denise for sharing your home with us. Celia & Alan C. ##### Celia C.

Of the many aspects of this condo that are worth mentioning, the privacy was treasured above all. The lanai is on a flowering landscaped grass lawn with a golf course behind that and is the only lanai that opens up to it. (There are decks facing it on the above floors but without access.) From the living room, we looked at our private back yard with many birds and flowers, a view of the ocean, with the perfect angle for the sunsets. Heaven. Condo also has a gas grill on this private lanai, which we have found to be a rare commodity. The kitchen was super-well equipped, with leftover spices, staples, salad dressings, and even alcohol. There was snorkel equipment, beach chairs, & more for our use, and the snorkel equipment was excellent. We awoke to a chorus of songbirds each day, from our very comfortable bed. This is the “true Hawaii.” My only suggestion would be to add a notebook of local information, such as where the grocery stores are, the drug store, which beaches are recommended for snorkeling, and owner’s favorite haunts – but we managed to find those on our own. It just took us more time. Also, I connected to the WiFi easily but my husband never was able to. We have rented many places through vrbo over the years and this is one we didn’t want to leave and was head & shoulders above the others. We will return. ##### Patricia K. ### 6/10 Okay #### Kaitlyn K. 28 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good condo, bad complex I’m sorry to leave a review like this but we did not feel at home. The condo itself was great inside. Well stocked, comfortable, nice mattresses, furnishing, washer/dryer, and layout. We enjoyed our gecko friend too and he enjoyed a slice of papaya on the window sill. That’s about where the good ended. This condo is directly next to the property manager, who actually seemed to be the nicest person we came across on the property. But it would have been nice to know before paying. It would have also been good to know that jumping in the pool and using floaties of any kind, including kickboards, are absolutely prohibited. You will be immediately reprimanded by an old resident, probably a board member, and threatened to be kicked out. And we are good people. My kids are rule followers and good swimmers but are ages 4 and 6 and have only ever known to jump in a pool so they forgot a couple times whilst in the midst of having fun. I overheard others complaining about the enforcement of the strict rule too. I purposely booked this condo because it was on the ground floor and gave my kids the opportunity to run around the grass and be free and enjoy themselves when we had down time. But instead, we always felt like we were walking on egg shells, trying not to disturb anyone, keep voices down, not making too much smoke in the BBQ, and basically not being seen or heard to not disturb any of the crotchety old residents. There was no aloha spirit here. Just retired mainland transplants. We really felt unwelcome. We even spent more money to stay a night at the Outrigger for a vacation from our vacation so we didn’t feel so confined & restricted and could actually enjoy ourselves. It was so nice to see other families and locals having a great time. Ok, but besides all that, yes the large windows, lanai, and view was beautiful. This place is probably perfect for a couple seeking a quiet tropical getaway. Saw many sunsets eating dinner outside, watching the geckos run around, many different tropical birds, and resident turkeys… whilst also being bitten alive by mosquitos. Definitely not recommended for families. Thank you Denise for the nice interior, amenities, and quick communication. A list of rental home instructions would be helpful. Such as filling out parking pass upon arrival (the property manager had to leave one on our windshield) and emphasizing strict complex rules. Yes, I saw random notes posted around the place, but a master list is helpful. ##### Kaitlyn K.
