Historic Kailua Village Condo | Kona Reef Beachfront/Walk to Town/Air Con/WiFi/Top Floor/Free Parking

Kona Reef Beachfront / Top Floor / Air Con / Free WiFi / Walk to Town

Experience the beauty of your Kona Reef Beachfront getaway, where you can truly make this freshly renovated top-floor condo your own slice of paradise in Kailua-Kona. The moment you step inside, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes it feel like your home away from home.

Situated in an oceanfront complex, this property offers stunning ocean views while providing a "local-style" vibe, all within walking distance to town. You’ll find the public beach conveniently located next door, perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or surfing. From your top-floor lanai, enjoy a vibrant daily display of beach activity, ranging from sunbathing to yoga classes and picnics.

The decor is charmingly beachy and eclectic, featuring a delightful mix of retro "Hawaiiana" and subtle whimsy, alongside premium finishes that enhance both warmth and durability. With split-system air conditioning installed in December 2020, both the living room and bedroom will stay cool throughout your stay. The fully equipped kitchen boasts bamboo cabinets, a white quartz countertop that resembles soft clouds, an art glass backsplash, and whimsical shell mosaic pendant lighting. The bathroom merges the serene colors of sand and sea, highlighting a custom walk-in shower complete with a rain head, a bamboo glass panel, and a convenient corner seat. Sturdy bamboo-pattern vinyl flooring ensures a natural ambiance complements the coastal experience.

Your lanai serves as an ideal spot for enjoying breakfast while soaking up the sights and sounds of the beach. Feel inspired to wander down to the shore, where you can picnic, wade, swim, snorkel, or perhaps take part in a yoga class. To enhance your beach day experience, the condo provides backpack-style beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, beach towels, and more.

You’ll also appreciate these conveniences during your stay:

  • FREE secure high-speed Wi-Fi
  • Digital Cable TV package
  • In-unit front-loading washer and dryer
  • Elevator access from the parking garage to the patio level (please note that there are several paces to walk from the elevator followed by 8 stairs to reach the condo level; this may not be suitable for those requiring “no stairs”).

While the amenities of the condo are fantastic—did I mention the incredibly comfortable memory-foam king-size mattress?—you’ve come to Kona to explore! Spend time at the beautiful oceanfront swimming pool, which features ample lounge chairs, a whirlpool spa, barbecues, and a shaded pavilion.

Kona Reef boasts one of the most desirable locations on the Kona Coast, just a short stroll away from shopping, dining, bars, and entertainment options. Within a 5 to 10-minute walk, you can easily access:

  • Honl’s Beach - right next door!
  • Luau at the Royal Kona Resort
  • Restaurants and bars
  • Shops
  • Bicycle rentals
  • Coffee shops

Just a few minutes further, you can discover:

  • Farmer’s Market
  • Art Galleries
  • Library
  • Additional shops and restaurants
  • Churches
  • Hulihee Palace

If adventure calls, the possibilities are endless with activities such as snorkeling, SCUBA diving, golf, zip-lining, hiking, deep-sea fishing, helicopter tours, sailing, stand-up paddleboarding, surfing, parasailing, visiting Pu'u Honua (City of Refuge) National Park, exploring waterfalls, botanical gardens, attending luaus, sampling coffee, and farm tours (including coffee, chocolate, vanilla, and more).

Whichever activities you choose, the Big Island offers infinite sunshine-filled adventures, making this top-floor condo at Kona Reef the perfect home base for your travels.

This isn't simply a hotel room; it's my cherished downtown oceanfront retreat, and I relish every opportunity to stay here when it’s not booked. Your enjoyment matters, so please share a bit about yourself when making a reservation request.

Reservations can be made up to 9 months ahead, but if your travel timeline stretches beyond that, feel free to reach out via the "Ask Owner a Question" link.

Thank you for considering your future stay, and welcome to the potential of your Hawaiian adventure!

About the Air Conditioning: Experience comfort with the two-unit split system installed in December 2020. This quiet system includes a wall unit in the living room and another in the bedroom, complemented by ceiling fans and standing fans for your preference. Given the high cost of electricity in Hawaii, please remember to turn off the AC when leaving the apartment for extended periods.
