We liked the place, but the upstairs neighbor had extremely heavy feet and no idea of quiet time. This morning, he was up and stomping about at 2am and moving furniture / hammering on things. Not a restful neighbor.

We stayed here for 3 wonderful weeks. The unit was very clean and had all amenities needed. There were two beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, and a small portable cooler. Everything needed for a day at the beach. The pool is beautiful with plenty of chairs/recliners for the complex. We had a nice view of the mountain and walked to the beach for the sunset view (1/2 mile?). You will need to drive to swimming beaches if you take any equipment. "A" bay is nearest beach and is wonderful. The pictures posted here are accurate. Check in process super easy.

The condo was nicely situated away from traffic. Loved being on the ground floor with privacy. The condo had everything we needed for our comfort and stay and the hot tub was a nice retreat each evening. A Bay beach is a short walk, nice sandy beach, sunsets, turtles. Also has shopping relatively walkable. We spent our days out and about. We had air conditioning, but dont feel it was necessary being very windy outside (February).

The property was spacious, light and bright. I was within walking distance to all shops and the beach. I would recommend this unit to others.

We've stayed in Waikaloa many times, several times at the Shores. This is a nicely located unit. Missed a couple of things usually found in these units like placemats and BIG beach towels, really tiny little toaster.This ground level unit has poor sound insulation in the ceiling and we heard every step the lady upstairs took back and forth and back and forth. AC worked great and quietly:)

8.0 / 10.0

Had a wonderful stay. It would have been a 5 star stay except for the lack of blackout curtains in the bedroom, which would have helped to keep the bright sunlight from shining in at 6:30 am, and the loud footsteps of the neighbors upstairs. Maybe I should only consider a top floor property. Otherwise, everything was great!

Very Nice

10.0 / 10.0

We loved the condo, and the location was perfect for us. We had family nearby, and it was easy enough to access the areas we wanted to visit. The only complaint/warning: if it says A/C , it doesn’t necessarily mean you will be able to make it as cold as you are used to. Ours was limited to 73 degrees, which was not close to cool enough for my spouse. Some property listings specify this; all of them should. For that reason alone, we would look for another property for next year, but if that doesn’t concern you, this place is great.

The place is in a great location and everything went smooth. My only complaint was on the limited quantity of kitchen utensils. We had to dishwasher sometimes twice a day. If it wasn't for that I would have given 5 stars. Mahalo!

We enjoyed our stay very much, and would book there again for sure! The condo was well equipped with beach gear, kitchen stuff, bedding, towels, etc. The condo and property were very clean - except that we found fresh gum on the sidewalk outside our door several times, likely from a rude guest above us. The pool and hot tub were very clean, great temperatures, and never busy. The check-in process couldn’t have been easier - all info was provided by email in advance. The concierge and property managers were readily available by email and responded promptly, politely, and professionally to our inquiries. We loved the location. The immediate area was a beautiful resort neighborhood with nearby shopping (including a well stocked grocery store). 10-minute walk to the ocean and 30-minute walk to A-Bay Beach with snorkeling, swimming, showers, flush toilets, and turtles. Ideally we would have liked a shorter walk for the kids to a swimming beach but this beach was a very short drive with public parking, and the property was with 15-30 minutes of many amazing beaches!

Had a great time and loved the private patio! Would visit again! Hopefully the management company let you know the ice maker wasn't working, along with the kitchen facet only works in the spray mode and doesn't retract all the way. No big deal on either of these but we let the management office know the status. Great place!

Beautiful Property Grounds, horrible beds!

The grounds are beautiful. Unfortunately, the two full beds in this condo are very uncomfortable and completely broken down. Both beds sag in the middle. The management stated that the owners are going to replace the beds in May. I wouldn't book this property until they are replaced. Also, plan on renting beach chairs the ones provided are for children as well as the cooler. We made the management aware that the ice maker was broken. Condo needs some TLC and some added thoughfulness for guests.

I found this listing less than a month before I planned my trip during the busy part of the year and booking went smoothly. Kona Coast vacations managed the reservation and provided all necessary information to access the unit, the pool, the gym, and use the assigned parking space. The kitchen was well-stocked for vacation cooking. The closets were well-stocked for beach outings. The unit faces east, and I enjoyed watching sunrises over Mauna Kea, and the location of the unit puts it on the cool side of the building in the evenings.

Lovely condo - clean and Efficient. But it would be nice to have four beach chairs of better quality and some noodles or boogie boards. Not expensive to provide and would definitely up the quality of thr experience.

We really enjoyed our stay but there was a few things that could have been better. It’s hard to pick a place online that you’ve never been to so that’s why I’m writing this review. Hopefully some action will be taken to make the stay better for others in the future. First off I want to say the area is great. My wife and I stayed at this property and 2 of our friends stayed nearby in another property. Both properties were about the same price. When we visited our friends place, we immediately realized the difference in the two places. In our place, it was described to have air conditioning which we really liked that idea. When we got there, we tried to adjust the thermostat but it would only go down to 74 degrees. So we didn’t use the ac, we just opened the windows because at night it was cooler than 74. I felt mislead on this. The second problem was the beds. This is a one bed room condo but they have 2 twin beds in the same room. I knew this when I reserved this property. But the beds are very uncomfortable. The mattress was sunk in in the middle making an uncomfortable nights sleep.The third issue or maybe it’s not, but when your taking a shower you can look out the window straight up into another properties window above you. Not sure if they can see you in the shower but I could definitely see up in their window. Made me wonder every time I took a shower. And lastly which maybe minutiae, but the toilet paper in the bathrooms was very cheap. The same kind I would expect to find in a portapotty. We had a good trip, but these are some things I would change on this property. It would definitely make a better stay. Thank you Billy
