Tropical Garden 1 Bedroom Condo--Private, Quiet, and Romantic, Wi/Fi, A/C

This 1 BR Condo is a lovely, private, even romantic, GARDEN VIEW CORNER UNIT, with a good partial OCEAN VIEW. Two walls of glass look out from the living room to private, tropical gardens and to the West a partial ocean view. Lanai's are on the West and North sides surrounding the unit. It is the only true 1 BR unit at Kona Shores (separate BR). The unit is also in the most PRIVATE AREA of the complex--the northwest corner of the facility--furthest from Alii Dr. and nearest the ocean. Kitchen and Bathroom have been completely REMODELED in 2015 and 2016. Wi-Fi is provided, and there are 2 wall air conditioners; one in living room near kitchen--the 2nd in the bedroom. The OCEAN-SIDE POOL is perhaps the best for size and View along Alii Drive.
Enjoy DINING at the corner of the west and north covered patios and watching green day geckos in the golden-fruited palms and plants very nearby. A little breeze keeps the 80 degree plus weather comfortable in the afternoons. Then take a dip down at the OCEAN-SIDE POOL that perches on a lava point, or walk to the sea on the concrete path along the pool to watch the sunset to the West or over Kailua pier at the other side of the Bay.
This condo features a new tile entry and new tile flooring in the SEPARATE ROOM KITCHEN and bathroom. Granite counter-tops surround all sinks and provide surfaces for all cabinets. The good quality wood cabinets are new in each of the rooms. In the kitchen there is a new large refrigerator, a newer gas stove, a microwave, coffee-maker and a complete complement of kitchen utensils, plates, etc. The kitchen window looks out on the end of the West Lanai.
The LIVING ROOM has two walls of glass (North and West) looking out at the private view of tropical gardens. On the North there is 6 ft. of Ginger and Palms, then 30 ft of sloping down landscaping of property next to ours. LR furniture includes a padded, rattan sofa and loveseat; a flat-screen TV, Cable TV, DVD, VCR, a closet, and shelves for books. Air conditioner, ceiling fan, and a floor fan (if needed) keep it cool in this comfortable unit. This 1st floor unit is cooler than roof-top 2nd floor units due to the extra "insulation".
The separate Bedroom has a Cal-King bed, a chest of drawers, an air conditioner, a ceiling fan, and a GLASS WALL AND PATIO DOOR looking out on the North tropical garden area. The large Bathroom is off of the BR. It has a sink area, a new shower/tub and double closets containing linens and supplies. Note: Secondary sleeping arrangements are unusual. There is a double futon-sofa, convertible to bed, on the very private north patio between LR and BR and two single air mattresses for placement in the LR (and inflation pump) if desired. some people bring the futon mattress into the living room at night--older children or adults may sleep outside on the patio. Also, there are two thick, single Coleman air mattresses in the BR closet along with a Coleman electric pump system. These can be used for sleeping in the living room at night and stood up against a wall (behind the sofa) during the day. All linens are provided.
Beach towels, mats, and ice chest are provided. The ASSIGNED parking spot is very nearby, about 6 feet below the unit where only 2 parking spots exist. You'll have no searching for a parking spot. Laundry facilities are very nearby. This is a Non-Smoking unit and Pets are NOT allowed.
The Condo is at Kona Shores, which is 1 mile south of Kailua village (and immediately south of a larger complex, Sea Village) on the OCEAN-SIDE of Alii Drive. The address is 75-6008 Alii Dr., Kailua-Kona, HI 96740.

Great Place!
This place had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Loved the view, even if it is a partial ocean view the sunsets are amazing and the large garden lanai was so nice! A very short walk to the pool and ocean. Great location for hitting all the sights on the Kona side!

Roomy, quiet, great location
We stayed here for a week in January and loved it. Apartment is in a great location to get to all the places you want to see in that area of the Big Island. About the apartment itself: nice and roomy, comfy bed, clean. Feels very private, a corner apartment with a sliver of a view of the ocean. Great communication with Glen and always a quick response.

Good location
Nice location - walkable. Good communications and easy check in with lock box. Unit had a well appointed kitchen and lots of beach items appreciated like cooler, chairs, umbrella. Short walk to pool and shoreline. Unit was somewhat older in terms of furnishings. stayed during Kona world championship so price was high at that time I guess vs previous stays in condo with water view in same area.

Great condo and location
We stayed here for 2 weeks with our 10 & 11 year old children the condo was big enough to accommodate everyone it was clean and had beach chairs and towels we could use. It’s a great location walking distance to downtown bars and restaurants and the view from the pool is amazing. The only thing is there was no bedroom door and the kids had to walk thru our room to get to the bathroom. Other than that it was fantastic. I would recommend it

We’ll equipped condo
We found the condo to be very comfortable, well equipped, and conveniently located. It suited our needs perfectly. The kitchen was especially well equipped with everything you might have at home. My husband appreciates a good sharp knife and he was impressed. The view from our patio and from the pool area was lovely. Parking was convenient. Host was responsive. My only suggestion would be to add a bedroom door. We would definitely use this condo again.

The unit was clean, check in was easy, and the unit included everything you need for your stay, and additionally included beach chairs, umbrellas, ect. The unit is conveniently located and is showing some ware. Barbeque is a communal affair and is charcoal fired which was a surprise. Alcohol is prohibited anywhere outside of your condo, which was also a surprise. Further, the maintenance man stalks guests for compliance. A can of beer at the pool would have been nice!

Perfect Location
I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and homey my condo was. I shouldn’t have been because all the reviews also have stated something to this effect. I fed the birds every morning, on the lanai, as there was birdseed available to do this. I believe this unit is the only unit with a view of the ocean, and the unit above it. This was my first trip by myself and I stayed 11 nights. I felt very safe there and I spent so much time at the pool. It is literally right on the ocean, which was one of my favorite parts. The pool had a full view of the ocean plus the whole inlet where Kona town is. Of course, the sunsets were amazing! I will be back for sure! Thank you for providing such a lovely condo🥰

This condo is very quiet, peaceful, and wonderful to stay in. Very comfortable, clean and spacious. ,Nice King size bed, and good sized bathroom. Enjoyed feeding the birds who come to visit, many different varieties. The view from the lanai is beautiful. Spent many evenings down by the pool, watching the sunset. Very stunning! The BBQ area is very nice with tables overlooking the pool area and ocean. The location of the condo is perfect, you can walk into Kailua town for some coffee, or shopping or for dinner if you so desire. Parking is conveniently located right in front of the Condo, and laundry room is right across the hall. We met several other residents of the condo complex and all are very friendly. There is a wonderful peace surrounding this place. Will definately be returning to stay at this condo.

Incredible Stay!
This was by far my best experience in a VRBO property! Glenn and Ginny have literally thought of anything and everything you could possibly need...and more! The location is perfect, walking distance to the heart of the town. The patio is spacious and beautiful and the view is great! The bed was very comfortable and they even provided us with a playpen for our little one so we did not have to travel with one! There is a lot of space to unpack and make yourself at home for your stay. The bathroom has a nice little vanity area which I loved! The view from the pool is unreal, we saw a whale one day while we were swimming in the pool!! Amazing! And there was a great spot below the pool to watch the sunset in the evening. This is a 5+ star condo for sure! In dealing with Glen, Leaf and Bobbi, all were lovely and very hospitable! Thank you for a fantastic stay! :)

Convenience in Kona
Had a great time on the Big Island this past week! G&G's condo was the perfect start. Great place and a beautiful setting. Windows on two wall of the living room that open on to a private, lush lanai with geckos that stop by for feeding every morning (just put out some fruit - they'll be there)! Convenience is the word too. The parking spot is right next to the condo - you can look out the window and see your car right there just steps from the door. The laundry facility is conveniently located right across the hall - thought that might be a source of noise but I was totally wrong. Convenient location is very close to all the local fare but not close enough to be inundated by the crowds that are attracted to all the shopping and dining establishments along Ali'i Dr. Nice view out to the ocean as well! 5 out of 5 stars!

The accommodations provided everything you would need to enjoy your time in Kona; king bed, full bathroom, kitchen with all the basic utensils, living room w/ sliders to small outdoor area. Note: The island weather takes a toil on the local buildings and complexes and almost all of these places could stand to be updated.If you are looking for a pristine place to stay, look elsewhere.

Condo très bien situé à 5 min du centre de Kona
Nous avons passé un bon séjour de 3 jours en famille . Le condo est vraiment très bien équipé avec tout ce que nous avions besoin pour faire un piqué nuque pour notre journée à la plage . Il était très agréable de prendre nos repas au Condo au son des vagues en écoutant les oiseaux chanter. Le seul petit bémol est que le matelas du lit de la chambre des maîtres fait un peau la banane…
