Unwind at this beautiful oceanfront resort property situated in a lush tropical paradise with an "Old Hawaii" feel.

Sip a morning cup of Kona coffee while watching humpback whales or spinner dolphins. Enjoy spectacular sunsets from the private palm-lined beach just steps away, or lie on the lanai's twin-sized lounger gazing up at the stars while listening to the sound of waves crashing on the lava rocks below.

This condo is spacious (nearly 1300 square feet) and feels like a real home with its spectacular ocean views and central air conditioning! There is no additional charge for running the AC during your stay.

Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING we needed to make our stay comfortable and inviting had been thought of and was available. The home clean and welcoming. Thank you for the generous “care Package” with its delicious coffee, macadamia nuts and treats. We especially loved the bottled water and the Brita water filter which allowed us to make delicious coffee. Other guests were quiet and respectful in the public spaces. Loved the Blowing of the Conch as the sunset. Mahalo for sharing your home with us.

Fantastic Stay

We had an amazing stay at Casa Kona! The property is beautifully maintained, and the condo was a perfect fit for our family. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the upgraded bathrooms were a fantastic touch - modern and spotless. We especially loved spending our evenings on the lanai, relaxing with a glass of wine while taking in the stunning ocean view. The location is ideal - within walking distance to the local market and a nearby resort with a great restaurant and bar. The oceanfront pool was warm and very enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again!

Awesome stay

This place was everything advertised and then some. Every part of the stay was ideal. The welcome basket was a real treat and every amenity that we could think of was at our disposal. Understated is the beauty of the of the sea life found in the ocean just outside the door. It fealt like our own private aquarium. We would certainly stay here again. Brent was more than responsive to our questions (sorry for bugging you) as well.

Charming Renovated 1960’s Condo Unit Meets Melrose Place

What a find! The location of this condominium is superb. Within a short drive into Kona, coffee plantations, & southern beaches. The condominium grounds were well maintained with beautiful trees & shrubs. This is a gated small condominium unit that we assumed was built around the 60’s, which lends itself to a charm that you cannot find. And with a renovated unit, it’s the best of the old & new. At night, the place comes alive and residents congregate around the saltwater pool & gazebo & await a resident to blow the conch shell as the sunsets. Our kids awaited this every night. The permanent residents & guests were all extremely nice. The saltwater pool was larger than depicted in the photos and well maintained. We would stay here again simply for the beautiful views from the lanai and the many seating options. The condo is well maintained & clean. The kitchen is well stocked with smaller appliances & condiments. We found the large kitchen appliances to be a bit dated with the oven and stovetop tricky to operate. Completely not a big deal when compared to all of the strengths this listing has to offer. We would stay here again & have been recommending this listing to our friends interested in visiting The Big Island.

Amazing Coastal Location!

Our family loved our visit to the Big Island, staying at this amazing Casa Kona condo unit. Everything was as described, and it was even better than we could have imagined. The spacious deck overlooked the courtyard, and though it was not right on the ocean, was very close and you still had an amazing view of the water. It certainly provided a great place to enjoy your morning coffee as well as your sunset dinner. The saltwater pool near the ocean was perfect to cool off in, and there were plenty of places to sit in the courtyard and sand area under the palm trees at the front of the property. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils making preparing meals a breeze. The welcome basket filled with treats was a special surprise after a long day of travel. While we didn't take advantage of it, there were beach chairs, some snorkeling equipment, a boogie board and beach umbrella available to use. We definitely would recommend this condo to anyone looking for a two-bedroom unit.

Wonderful stay at Casa Kona

We stayed for two weeks at Casa Kona. The owners were very quick in responding to our questions as well as friendly and hospitable. They have supplied this condo with everything you could possibly need and welcomed us with a goody basket when we checked in. The saltwater pool was very refreshing and there are beach chairs where we relaxed under The palm trees. We would stay here again if we return to the big island!

Cousin reunion at the Casa

#236 was a perfect condo for me and my cousins. I’ve been coming to the Casa since it was built in the late 60’s, they had never been. I was so pleased to see how well the Casa has been maintained. And, #236 has been updated perfectly! My only complaint was construction work was going on in one of the units above us. Too much noise going on to enjoy the quiet of Kona!

The Absolute Best Stay

This was our first time on the Big Island but our 7th visit to Hawaii. We have always had wonderful vacations but we all agree that Brent’s place really made this trip so special. Waking up to the ocean and coming home to a gorgeous sunset after a day of exploring the island was really beyond words. Beyond the condo being lovely and having the best ever Hawaiian vibe, the location was perfect! It was a short drive to Kona and a mid spot for visiting other parts of the island. Brent was also a wonderful host. As we were traveling there was talk about the approaching hurricane and when we contacted him he responded quickly to all of our concerns and questions! As it turns out, the Kona side is pretty protected! Another big plus for this location!

Perfect Condo!!

Casa Kona is perfect! The view from the lanai is unbeatable! The condo had everything we needed to make our first trip to Hawaii a great one. It is so close to restaurants and beaches. Less than a 10 minute drive to so many cool places. We walked to a great little coffee shop each morning. Did I mention the lanai? The views are breathtaking. Along the seawall of the condo we saw eel, crabs, and a few fish. We will definitely visit again. Just a wonderful place to stay!

Stayed here in December 2024 and this unit was outstanding. The photos don't do it justice - it's absolutely beautiful and very very large. The unit location has a nice view of the water, pool and the BBQ/community area, but it is still very quiet and amazingly private. Lovely, friendly and secure complex. Great saltwater pool and the sunsets were fabulous. Enjoyed the nightly conch shell and the feeding of the eels with the residents! Hosts were top notch as was the gift basket, the unit instructions, the restaurant recommendations and the really well stocked kitchen. Highly recommend - this unit is a true 5 star!

We spent a wonderful 4 weeks at Casa Kona. Relying on the reviews of others, we booked it sight unseen. We loved it and are going back again next year. Even though I am handicapped it wasn't challenging to move around the property. The salt water pool was my sister-in-law's favorite amenity even though she has her own at home. You will enjoy your stay!
