Condo was very clean and updated. Location was perfect to the ocean and snorkeling. Close to shops and restaurants. Close enough to downtown Kona but without the noise and traffic. Pool and hot tub cleaned daily grounds well maintained. Only downside is that it is a 3rd floor unit with amazing views unfortunately, without an elevator. Hosts were awesome to work with. Communication was excellent!Mahalo Rachel and Jason

Perfect stay

This rental was perfection. Wonderful condo. Perfectly outfitted. Due to a food allergy, I cooked most meals at the condo…so having a well stocked kitchen is key. There were also beach towels, a cooler, and other beach and snorkeling gear. Directly across from one of the best snorkeling spots on the Big Island. Our hosts were phenomenal communicators. We will absolutely return to this magical place.

Kahalu'u Paradise

This unit was well thought out, well equipped and the hosts were very easy to work with. We appreciated its proximity to Kahalu'u Bay and South Kona. The unit was nicely decorated and has a fantastic view to the bay. Our kids enjoyed the pool and the geckos that frequent the grounds. Many thanks to the hosts for sharing a dream spot with us!

Extraordinary!

Rachel and Jason have created a spectacular space with an exception view of one of the best snorkeling areas on the big island. The condo is in a quiet neighborhood, convenient distance to Kona or to 2 Step and easy to get the highway to Kīlauea. The condo is well equipped in the kitchen and also with things you might want for the beach. The bed was extremely comfortable. 5 Stars! Will be my choice of where to stay for my next trip to Kona.

Perfect Getaway

Second time we’ve stayed at this property. We love the quieter end of Ali’i Drive. Located right across the street from excellent snorkeling at Kahalu’u Beach. Just a short drive up to Kailua-Kona shopping/restaurants, or south for shopping, dining, golf in Keauhou. And no review would be complete without mentioning the fact that Jason & Rachel are the best hosts ever! Kevin & Mary M

Relaxing Stay at Surfing Turtle Kona

Excellent condo on the top floor overlooking Kahalu'u beach. Condo has all the beach and snorkeling gear you need. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking essentials. Lanai is great for meals, sunsets, and relaxation. Wonderful pool and hot tub to enjoy after a long day exploring this amazing island. Hosts Rachel and Jason were very responsive to any questions or needs we had. A heads up for older folks like us, no elevator, just three flights of stairs. Stayed two weeks, very much enjoyed our stay here and would return.

Like Snorkeling? This Is The Place!

We absolutely loved this condo! It is a perfect location across from an amazing snorkeling beach, minutes to a great supermarket and restaurants but yet quiet at night. We loved visiting Volcanoes park, boating along the coast, and eating ahi poke every day. The condo is well equipped and has great sunset views. Thanks for a great vacation!

Great Property

Surfing Turtle was a great property for our Kona vacation. Communication with the owners was prompt, condo was clean, had great beach gear and the home was stocked with everything you’d need in a rental. The welcome gift was great and snorkeling across the street was some of the best variety of fish we saw all week. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great condo

100% as advertised. Clean, well maintained unit right across the street from terrific snorkling beach. Traffic is loud on Friday and Saturday nights and beach gardner starts the leaf blower at 7am every day however worth the tradeoff for location and quality of condo.

Best for Snorkelers!

This place is perfect if you want to snorkel. The closest place to the best snorkel spot on the island. The condo was super comfortable and clean, great for two people. Hosts super responsive, even purchased a yoga mat for me when I asked if the unit had one. Mattress is quite hard, lots of steps (no elevator) and, as others have mentioned, a lot of road noise and leaf blowers every morning. Overall, wonderful stay.

We love the beach villas. The location is great with excellent snorkeling across the street and some of our favorite places to eat are nearby. The place was clean and had everything we needed.
