About this property

Surfers & Sunsets-Kona Reef Ocean Front Unit -- IronMan dates now available

  • Watch the Surfers from Your Lanai - Kona Reef Ocean Front Unit

    Light and Airy with direct Ocean Views from the Lanai, Living and Kitchen areas. Large Ocean Front 611 square foot condo with a full 128 square foot Lanai.

    This fully equipped Ocean Front 3rd floor condo is located in the low-rise popular Kona Reef complex (Unit A26). Just steps to the Ocean and the white sand beach park next door. It has a short 3 minute walk to shops, open markets and restaurants in the picturesque town of Kailua-Kona. There is free parking for renters (both open or covered), elevators, air conditioning and secured DSL internet access (WIFI).

    The Kona Reef complex offers an Oceanfront Pool, Jacuzzi / Hot Tub, Gas Grills and Pool Side Dining area.

    Remodel completed December, 2018.

    Please note we have a 5 night minimum rental requirement. (4 Night Min during Summer Season / 10 night minimum for the annual Ironman Competition dates / Other exceptions based on available calendar openings)

    2026 & 2027 will be interesting years at Kona Reef. There will be Spauling repair occurring throughout the complex. Work on Building A (our Bldg) is completed. The majority of the noise and dust directly affecting our unit is pretty much over. Between the ocean breeze and the sounds of the surf we're pretty isolated from the remaining work.

    As work moves on through the year the direct impact will be less, but noise and dust can be anticipated in other areas of the complex during working hours of 8-5 M-F (great time to schedule enjoying seeing the island). Work will rotate through the Parking Areas starting around the end of September through June of 2027. The prices on the Calendar have been discounted from 50% to 10% from regular rates based on the amount of impact to our renters anticipated.

Fabulous condo

We really enjoyed our stay at Bruce's condo. It was exactly as depicted and described. Everything we needed for our five night stay was provided, there were even snorkel gear and boogie boards for our use. The balcony was wonderful, we spent a lot of time out there enjoying the view of the surf.

Amazing location with great views and amenities!

Overall the condo felt like our little home on the Big Island! We were very impressed with the location and the views from the oceanfront balcony were amazing! Also we really appreciated all of the stuff available in the condo - beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, appliances, washer/dryer - everything we needed for a great vacation! The area had so many great things within walking distance - restaurants, shopping and the farmers market (and Walmart/Costco was a short drive!). Also the host was super quick to respond to our request and other questions. A great place to stay!

Nice view

Great patio, nothing between it and the shoreline. Sunset over the water. The unit was fine, bring coffee. Small rocky beach next to the property, good for getting wet. Pool area is nice. Surfing out front most days. Nothing really walkable.

Great place. Clean. Cozy. Well stocked. Almost every conceivable utensil in the kitchen. Everything works. Nice extras like snorkel equipment and boogie boards. Lanai is very private overlooking beautiful rocky cove. Had breakfast and dinner every day out there. Bruce is a great host that gave us all the info we needed for our stay. I hope to stay there again next trip to the Kona coast.

On the water views

Enjoyed being within 100ft of the shoreline from our room. Unobstructed 180 ocean views. The property is tired and in need of lots of lip stick ( paint, loose walkway tiles. When you run this many people through a condo complex it requires a commitment to maintain it at a desirable level. This high level of commitment is absent at Kona Reef. If you have to say the words “it’s not that bad”, it needs work and is that bad. If the property condition matched its location with ocean front living It would be a winner. Tough love from an honest guest

Hawaiian Delight!

The view is AMAZING! The owners were responsive and gave us lots of information about the condo and the area. They were available if more information was needed. The condo is nicely updated with all the basics you need to start your vacation. Already had paper towels, dishwasher tabs, zipper bags, spices, some condiments, etc... The bed was comfortable. There was plenty of storage. We also liked that there was Chromcast as well as a cable tv option. The complex is very well maintained and has a lovely pool and grill area. We have stayed at the Kona Reef resort previously and this condo is one of the best in the complex. The location of this condo is also a big plus! You can walk to town where you will find restaurants, bars, boutiques, shave ice, gelato and so much more. We hope to return again soon!

Couldn’t ask for a better view on the private lanai located in walking distance to many of the stores and restaurants.

It was our first time to the Big Island! This was a perfect location. We had everything and more in the condo- little things like zip lock bags and big things like plenty of extra towels, comfortable bedding, & laundry detergent. We appreciated the condiments in the fridge and water-filter pitcher. We had a car so we could visit other beaches, but we also walked to the main drag for dinner and drinks. So glad we stayed here!
