View and sound of the waves was awesome! Property and condo are a bit old and run down, but still functional. Close to all of Kailua Kona and not far to Volcanoes Park - about 2.5 hours. Eat at Volcano House. The food is good and the view of the caldera is great!
What apartment needs: more dish towels (only 1) more coffee mugs (only 2 mugs) fan with light on balcony; there is just a small light and with the sun setting on the balcony, a fan is needed, throw pillows for sofa and chair - they are way too deep for short people.
Guests need to know ahead of time that there are luggage carts in the front lobby to carry up luggage and groceries.
Need to provide Windex to wipe down all the glass tables. We were there 2 weeks and had no cleaning supplies.
Beds were good and firm. Towels were good thickness. Stove, microwave and dishwasher work well. Refrigerator opens from the wrong side, but still can be used.
Recessed can lighting made everything bright except in front of washer/dryer. Pretty dark there. No problems with bugs at all. Folks are neighborly and the things that we called to get repaired - Kona Coast Properties responded very quickly.
FYI - a condo was for sale a couple of doors away, also facing the ocean. Asking price - $1.2 million!
