Only complaint is the door to the apartment was very challenging to close. The top corner was warped from moisture causing having to slam the door making a lot of noise and then slam your shoulder in the door in order to secure from inside the apartment. Parking was limited when arriving in the evening, had to park off the busy highway.

Checking in was uninformative. Getting into the unit was like having to half break down the door. Stood on a chair to turn on the inefficient air conditioner because remote wouldn’t work. Asked at check in location about wi/fi connection. I was told to message the owner as they know nothing about that. The entire place is old and shabby. I initially had to send out three different messages before I was even given the address to this place. I do not recommend.

I actually could have actually stayed longer but I was only there until my Ohana was ready for my three month stay. It was more than confortable

This was an exceptional location, beautifully landscaped. The room was nicely decorated the little kitchenette had everything we needed. Balcony was lovely every morning. We appreciated beach chairs, boogie board snorkel gear beach umbrella just made our stay so seamless. Plenty of parking nearby.

check in problem
Horrible communication with property manager. Did not respond until an hour later after several texts and calls to owner and co owner. Booked a hotel down the road and answered after. Long day of traveling for my partner and I and was unable to get a refund as well

Great location, easy walk to beach and restaurants. Cece responded to any questions I had almost immediately. I would rent from Cece if, in the future, I return to Kona.

Great stay in Kona
We had a great time in this studio apartment, which was inside a centrally located resort in Kona. The host was very responsive. We would love to stay here again.

Great location. Had to contact owner for check-in instructions. Had to push hard to open and close front door. No block out blinds for people who are sensitive to light. 2 remotes to use TV. Would be helpful to have instructions on how to use. No kitchen sink plug, only a sink strainer, which seems to be common with condo rentals. Fridge needs to be defrosted. Had an induction cooktop and ice cube trays, which appear to be a bonus for kitchenette set-ups.

Nice unit very very convenient location.
Very nice unit with a nice view of the pool. As other people has stated parking is challenging. But I always found a place in the lot or right next to the property on the street. The bed is comfortable and I slept well. Minor issue with some small ants in the bathroom.owner was very responsive. I would definitely stay here again.

Spectacular
Really beautiful setting with balcony overlooking the pool and lush tropical courtyard, the website photo doesn't so it justice. Just a 2 minute walk to the main ocean-front boulevard with restaurants and shops. Comfortable bed and everything was clean. The small kitchenette consisted of an induction hotplate and microwave, so you'll probably want to take advantage of the many nearby restaurants. The only downside was limited parking, we had to park across a very busy road. We would definitely stay here again!

Sweet spot!
This is the 2nd time we stayed here! Its a sweet spot that is conveniently located the room was clean andeasy to get into. My only complaint is is the parking situation. There’s not enough parking spots and the ones they have are very small. in the heart of Kona and close to everything.
