The view was breathtaking. Kept the sliders open to hear the waves every moment we were there. No need for the air conditioner except for the bedroom for sleeping at night (no cross winds there) Best stocked VRBO we’ve ever been in. Loved all the hangers too. Only drawback was not much in the way of storage-dressers for clothing. We made do..made good use of those hangers It’s an older unit but well kept. Would definitely book C31 again. Super convenient to walk to shops and restaurants along Ali’i drive.

First Big Island Experience
The location was excellent! The entire facility/grounds were very well maintained. The parking garage was monitored. We felt very safe. Communication with our host was flawless, as was access into the condo. Nice rules and regulations meant that while the facility was family-friendly, it was also quiet (such as no Bluetooth speakers, forcing others to listen to someone else’s choice of music)! Host provided everything we could possibly need, including beach chairs (which we used daily), and umbrella. We would definitely recommend this unit, and we ourselves would stay here again!

Loved the property. Everything was as described (or better), and the hosts were very helpful along the way. The location and views were amazing. Unit was well appointed, and clean, as was the overall complex. There is plenty of parking, and with the close proximity to shops and dining in Kona, you'll leave your car and walk to town. Definately a place I would recommend! Hated to leave Seaside Kona. but glad we stayed.

Great spot to stay with ocean views
We loved staying in this condo, owners were super helpful and responsive, you have everything you need (beach gear included), and it is close to everything. Plus you can listen the the ocean and watch the sunset right from the unit!
The place is a little older, but the pictures are very accurate, and it was well taken care of.
We'd stay again

Lovely location
The best review one can give is "we would come here again." The condo is small but perfect for a couple. The place could use some updating but who cares? It's a gorgeous view in a perfect location and all you need is supplied. Very much appreciated the excellent selection of Tupperware and the coffee maker. Just a few tips: one small flight of stairs to navigate. If you sleep with the window open you might be awakened by the birds or people throwing out trash. The bed is high and comfy with plenty of pillows. Not a lot of towels but they have an excellent washer and dryer. We rented a car and could always find a spot. Pantry had lots of random things like Pam and Salt and foil. Brita water pitcher in the fridge. No ice maker but ice trays provided. Great TV. AC will freeze you out and the ceiling fans are quiet. Bathroom gets hot (nonAC or fan) so shower with the door open. Hairdryer is good. Pool is lovely and the grilling area is great. Very glad we found C31!

Loved Kona Reef
Had a wonderful time at Kona Reef. The condo was lovely, well-appointment with gorgeous ocean views. We enjoyed breakfast every morning on the lanai. The complex is very nice and clean with a nice area for BBQing. The location could not be more perfect— beachfront with a beautiful grassy area to enjoy the beautiful sunsets, and best of all within walking distance to shops and restaurants at Kailua-Kona village. Great communication with our host, Conrad. We would definitely stay there again.

All That We Hoped For and More
My husband and I had never been to Hawaii before our trip to the Big Island. When I saw our condo at Kona Reef- I knew we had to stay there. The booking process was simple, Conrad answered all my questions within less than an hour, and all the instructions from how to get to the condo from the airport to accessing the condo, etc., were clear and easy to understand.
Our stay was amazing. The condo had everything we needed. The kitchen has plenty of cookware, there is beach gear including an umbrella (very handy), and a large cooler and ice packs that were great for our daily outings.
We like to grill so the area by the pool that offers a common area with grills and seating provided the perfect space for us to spend our evenings while watching the sun set. Ahhhh the sunsets- like nothing we’d ever seen.
If you are considering this condo- do it! You won’t regret it. Great area, the property has a great feel, it’s within walking distance to the village which has great food, coffee shops, farmers markets, and shopping.
We will 100% be back!

Great property for our stay! Pool was lovely- refreshing in the heat. The condo had a fully stocked kitchen, complete with storage containers, so that we could cook (grill) at home when we wanted to. Quiet, except for the waves and local birds♡. Thank you!

June 11-21 2024. Great location in Kona
My husband and I came to the big island for the first time to visit our daughter who is currently living there. The location was perfect; close enough to downtown that we were able to walk there multiple times a day if we wanted. The unit was clean and had plenty of amenities, not to mention the view of the ocean from the lanai where we spent most of our time. Conrad was very helpful and answered our questions right away. We will definitely stay there when we come again for a visit!

Hawaiian Dreams do COME TRUE!
From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. Conrad and Denise provided written instructions for us, which were very useful. Their suggestions covered every question we had,from who to contact with questions about the condo and property, to recommending excursions, and shopping.
Their condo looks exactly the as posted on VRBO, and was clean and comfortable. We did not want to leave! Our next trip to Kailua-Kona, to visit family we hope this condo is available.

Wonderful stay in Kona Reef condos!
My husband and I had a wonderful time staying in Kona Reef condos this past week. The weather was beautiful, the views from the room spectacular and the unit itself was comfortable and cozy. It was so easy to walk from the unit into town for dinner and shopping. The pool was clean and while busy, there was always seating available. The condo was well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We could keep the doors/windows open to hear the ocean and take in the breezes during the day. Road noise was minimal as the bedroom backs up toward the street side. Bed was super comfortable but bring an eye mask if you are sensitive to light because the condo complex keeps the outside lights on all night and it gets a little bright in the bedroom.
We didn’t use the beach next to the condo because we preferred the white sand beaches on Kauna’oa Bay - about 50 minutes north of here. Highly recommend taking a ride up this way. Also, don’t miss the Volcanic National park. We were lucky enough to be there when Kilauea erupted! Stop and spend some time at Punalu’u Black sand beach if you head south. Great trip overall and pleased to use the condo as our home away from home. Will definitely stay here again in our next trip to the big island!
