OCEANFRONT Kona Reef, Top Rated Reviews

Kona Reef, beautiful one-bedroom, direct oceanfront condominium, on world-famous Alii Drive. Our condo is 23 feet from the ocean and offers spectacular sunsets. Watch the surfers and the dolphins from the lanai.
This immaculate, recently upgraded condo has every thing you will need for a great vacation. It has all the comforts of home.

Our condo, D-16, is highly rated by previous guests, we are responsible owners who take our guest's comfort and satisfaction seriously.

Everything is happening right in front of you here. This is one of the best surfing spots on the island, the break is just in front of the condo. Dolphins, turtles, ships, birds, and when you prefer to read a book and just relax, this is also the most tranquil place to be. Relax and listen to the ocean waves, and enjoy perfect weather and beautiful sunsets.

We had an amazing time. We absolutely loved the ocean view from the balcony and spent much of our time at the VRBO there. The unit had everything we needed for our stay. We hope to return some day.

The location is perfect and the view was stunning. We love having a washer/dryer. The BBQ area is great and the lanai is the perfect place for a lovely sunset dinner. We are always on the go so the space was perfect for our headquarters. There is air conditioning, but we never turned it on. The sound of the waves is magical.
Beautiful sunset off of the lanai.

The unit was well equipped, and clean, fairly recent remodel. The location was great, about 30 feet from the oceans edge. Parking was good, check-in easy, all in all a great place to stay. No negatives. I would definitely stay there again.

Kona Reef

As you can see, the sunsets from the lanai are amazing. Stephanie's condo fit the bill for our vacation. Bed was super comfy, kitchen adequately supplied. Didnt even turn on the television and only used the AC once. Every room was spotless. My husband and i were the only guests but we had friends staying in two other condos. Needless to say, we spent alot of time in the pool and BBQ area. Kona Reef is perfect for that!

Great condo on the second floor with the sound of the waves all day. Great view for the sunset. The whole entire property was nice and clean. Pool area was excellent. It was nice to go for a hot tub and swim after a busy day. You are within walking distance to town and Huggos on the rocks. Will definitely be back.

Week in paradise

The view was breathtaking. Kona never disappoints. The location was key. Such a short walk to/from Huggos. We would walk over for dinner/drinks. Pictures and description were accurate. AC worked great during the day when it got hot then we left the door open so we could hear the ocean when we slept. Highly recommend!
