The condo is part of Kona Islander Inn complex, but this particular one is directly handeld by Chris and Heather, as I believe every condo may have different owners. The condo is very clean, smartly furnished so that there is quite a lot of free space but also a small kitchenette with fridge, microwave, and storage. A small balcony/terrace completes it. The Inn has a common laundry but we didn't use it. The location is literally in the heart of Kailua-Kona. Communication was good! Chris & Heather gave me all the info via the Booking messenger and they were always ready to answer: I asked for a late check out on the last day (2pm instead of 11am) with 2 days advance, and got answered quickly that was possible (extra fee required). We always found a free parking in the parking that serves the whole Inn, but I have the feeling it might become limiting in higher seasons. So overall we were really happy with this choice.

We liked everything. Nothing negative to write!

The host was very responsive and the location is great. The bed is very comfortable.

We arrived a couple of hours early. The room had been cleaned but we could not check in without paying an additional fee. This is the first rental of this kind where you couldn't check in early if unit was ready.

My favorite place to call home, in Kona when visiting! Close to restaurants and shopping facilities. Staff is very friendly! :)

Parking can be a bit tough, but off site parking always available!

The Condo is very nice, equipped with everything you need, even bathrobes and slippers, it's clean and comfy. Chris is quick to respond and a friendly host.

Unfortunately the staff at check in was super unfriendly and rude but since the Condos are privately owned I take it it is not the owner's personnell. However we told Chris about the incident and he said he would make sure to talk to them.

I have been coming to Kona for both business and pleasure since 2018, and I have bounced around several different vacation rental properties over time, and this condo is hands down the best option I have found for the money. The location in downtown Kona can't be beat, and the beautifully landscaped, tropical grounds at the Kona Islander Inn are unlike any other properties in Kona. You basically walk out your back door, and with a 2 minute walk down a pathway lined with banana trees and flowers, you cross the street and there's a beautiful beach for watching epic sunsets and sea turtles before you stroll conveniently to all the restaurants and nightlife Kona has to offer! The condo was very clean and exactly as shown in the photos with lots of amenities, including beach chairs, a beach tent and cooler. The bed was SO comfortable and the condo is freshly decorated in a beautiful Hawaiian theme throughout. I was hesitant to book this condo due to the fact that there were so few reviews and I was required to pay in cash on arrival, but the host was super professional and made it super easy to pay via credit card prior to my arrival so I felt confident that my purchase was guaranteed and protected by my credit card company. I highly recommend this condo if you are coming to Kona on business or pleasure and I intend to book this condo frequently!

Amazing place!!! It was exactly like the photo's, even better. Chris gave excellent and clear instructions. If you need anything he replies or calls right away. Very safe location. The walkway takes you right to the beach, restaurants, and bars. If you do stay longer, the kitchenette has all you need. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The location was great! Right across from the beach, and arms the corner from all the restaurants. The bed was very comfortable. The unit had been updated and was very nice. I would definitely stay here again. The owner was always available for any questions I had via text or email.

The bed was absolutely comfortable, and so were the pillows.It was clean.I enjoyed the outdoor seating area. Snorkeling gear

2 🪳 in the kitchen, one in the drawer. One on the ground. A few more towels would have been great, as well as more cookware.

Great location with easy access by walking to restaurants. The pool was nicely shaded to allow a wind down after a swim and the hot pool was comfortably hot and relaxing.

The bed was in an alcove pushed up against the wall so the left side of the bed could only be accessed from the foot of the bed. The sofa was uncomfortable to sit on.

Very nicely decorated unit that seems to be recently remodeled completely. Great location to walk to restaurants and bars. Outside table and chairs and extendable rack to hang wet towels or clothes is a nice touch. There was luggage racks to put your luggage on whick I appreciate (having 2 keeps our dirty luggage off the floor and furniture) Parking available Receptionist was helpful in giving dining suggestions and sights.

They have beautiful grounds but needed clean up and upkeep. This could look amazing
