Kona Reef, beautiful one-bedroom, direct oceanfront condominium, on world-famous Alii Drive. Our condo is 23 feet from the ocean and offers spectacular sunsets. Watch the surfers and the dolphins from the lanai.
This immaculate, recently upgraded condo has every thing you will need for a great vacation. It has all the comforts of home.

Our condo, D-16, is highly rated by previous guests, we are responsible owners who take our guest's comfort and satisfaction seriously.

Everything is happening right in front of you here. This is one of the best surfing spots on the island, the break is just in front of the condo. Dolphins, turtles, ships, birds, and when you prefer to read a book and just relax, this is also the most tranquil place to be. Relax and listen to the ocean waves, and enjoy perfect weather and beautiful sunsets.

Ocean breezes
The condo was amazing and so close to the ocean! Lives watching the sunset and seeing people come out to watch as well. The men blowing the conch shells to honour the day was so cool. We enjoyed watching people catching waves on the boogies boards too. Loved our stay. It made our vacation so relaxing and special.

Great location.
The condo is located a few steps from downtown Kona. You are able to walk to the shops and restaurants which is great because parking is very expensive in town. The condo faces the ocean with great views of the sunset. Definitely stay here again.

Great location and ocean views
This condo is perfect for 2. Clean and quiet. Great views of the ocean. Oceanfront so you can hear the waves from the lanai. Beautiful sunsets. You won’t be disappointed. Condo has everything you need. Fully stocked kitchen and washer and dryer in the unit was convenient. Even has binoculars to view all the ocean activities from the lanai. If you have a problem climbing stairs, there’s 5 steps up to the condo front door. Couldn’t ask for more in a condo. I’ll be back.

Condo was furnished with everything we needed. The view of the ocean spectacular. Sunsets are beautiful. We loved being able to walk to Kailua Village and have a choice of restaurants to choose from. Easy access to the rest of the island. Mahalo for a wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie Picconi

Host profile image
We have been visiting Hawaii for over 43 years. Stephanie lived on the Big Island for several years during the 60s. We have owned and operated hospitality properties for 22 of those. We are responsive and responsible to our guests. We are very knowledgeable about what to do, where to eat, and out of the way places to hike, beach and explore.

Why they chose this property

Kona Reef Resort is THE oceanfront complex. It is just a short stroll to the downtown area. The oceanfront and adjacent beach offer many opportunities for sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling , surfing, visiting tide pools, spotting turtles and watching sunsets. From the lanai, you can spot dolphins, whales in season, cruise ships, paddlers and surfers. If that doesn't keep you busy, nearby Kona Village has many restaurants, shops a popular farmers' market, and art galleries.
