This condo was the perfect place to stay while exploring the area. Communication with Vicki was great. The condo was clean and well-stocked. The bed was comfortable and the wine was a bonus! Thank you!
We stayed in this property of Vickis for 3 nights while visiting the Kailua-Kona area. I wish we could have enjoyed it longer. Vicki is a spectacular host, communicating clearly as often as necessary, instructions for checkin/out in the condo very clear and laid out. Her attention to detail is amazing. She anticipates every possible need for her guests, from restaurant brochures to beach essentials. The condo was spotless and her personal care for the place between guests was evident. This was very much appreciated.
The king bed was so very comfortable as well. Lovely linens and towels. Thank you Vicki. I would recommend your place in a minute.
We had parking steps from our condo door.
The condo is street side so you hear some traffic and the upstairs neighbour was fairly heavy footed in the mornings but Vicki even provides earplugs for that if needed!
You probably do need to drive to the shopping area down Ali'i drive from the condo but we did walk to a great restaurant from here. There are bikes to rent across street and a shuttle i understand. Staying longer I believe you'd appreciate being a bit away from the busy touristy area. It was an ideal location!
We were surprised to find fresh fruit and some ready-to-make oatmeal when we arrived on a late night flight - that was a treat! The place was very clean and lots of little extras - shopping bags, plastic food containers for hikes etc.
The pool was simple but had nice tables and umbrellas so we took a dinner down and ate while we watched the sun go down over the ocean.
Location was great. A bit loud with traffic noise but keeping the front windows and doors closed meant it didn’t bother us at all.
Hot water took a while to arrive, but the shower was really good when it did.
Thanks Vicki!
