Your Hawaiian Vacation Starts Here! II

Kona Shores is a great location right on Alii Drive (Hawaii Scenic Byway). A lovely complex with oceanfront pool & BBQ area for easy island living! Ground floor with easy access to Alii Drive and just one mile to downtown Kona, shopping, restaurants & beaches. Well maintained condo. Enjoy a thoughtfully laid out floor plan that will give you space and comfort during your stay. The kitchen features full sized appliances, gas stove, ice maker, built in microwave, custom cabinets and new granite counters. There is a split system A/C to keep cool from the Kona heat. Relax on the couch (queen pull-out) watch the flat screen TV and the king size bed will help you have a great start and end to your day on. Worry free assigned parking that is right next to the unit. Enjoy vacationing with all the comforts of home!

The place was beautiful and very clean. House was very organized and had everything that you will need . The host was very friendly and helpful she even let me check in early because my flight was early morning. I really enjoyed my stay here and I recommend it for sure. I stayed for 4 nights and I was able to use the beach chairs that she provides and all other equipment. I really liked the place.
