This condo was so comfortable and had everything my partner and I needed during our 11 night stay, including little things you might not think to bring like a first aid kit and stain remover for clothes. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, utensils, and a few small appliances including a blender and rice cooker. The condo was clean and quiet. I loved the location since the main downtown Kona area was just a few minutes drive down the road. It is so close that those more heat-tolerant than myself might be okay walking to the restaurants and shops, but driving wasn't an issue since we were able to find free parking every time we went into town. There is also a great little cafe (Green Flash) just next door that serves lunch, breakfast, smoothies and coffee.
The view from the lanai is phenomenal, overlooking both the ocean and the gorgeous pool of the neighboring condo complex. Ali'i village has a pool as well, which is large and well-maintained. It was quiet and wasn't crowded any time we used it. Kona Coast Vacations staff were in touch as soon as we checked in to welcome us to the island and they were friendly and quick when addressing any concerns or questions we had. This was a great spot for our vacation and we will definitely rent from Kona Coast again if we are back on the big island.
