About this apartment rental

Keauhou Kona Surf & Racquet Club Townhouse#4

ABSOLUTE OCEANFRONT! AIR CONDITIONED! REMODELED!

Nestled at the edge of a secluded cove and beach, the newly remodeled 'Waving Turtle' Oceanfront Townhome offers dramatic ocean views from its lanai, living room, kitchen, master bedroom and master bathroom. It offers views of year round sunsets, winter migrating whales, occasional gregarious spinner dolphins, shy sea turtles and yellow tang in the curling turquoise waves of the cove and the ocean beyond. As the moon approaches full, you can see it reflected in the calm evening seas and very early morning moon sets over the ocean from your comfortable king bed. When the trade winds blow across the palm tree-lined beach under a sky full of stars, you will truly believe this is heaven on earth.

The Waving Turtle has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and is set up to accommodate up to 4 guests with a king bed in the ocean-facing bedroom and two twin beds in the garden-facing bedroom. The beds are equipped with quality linens, pillows and comfortable new mattresses. There is a bathroom on each floor. The downstairs bath has a walk-in shower and the upstairs bath has a tub-shower.

There is plenty of storage space to tuck away all your gear for uncluttered living. A new mini split air conditioning system keeps the downstairs living area and upstairs bedrooms cool when needed along with new ceiling fans in each room when ocean breezes and open air living are desired. The private and spacious covered ocean-facing lanai (patio) has a ceiling fan and a large table with comfortable chairs for easy outdoor dining and early morning coffee. When you're in the mood, a 50 inch smart HD TV is in living room. Free secure Wi-Fi is available throughout the unit. A dedicated parking space is just steps away.

The kitchen is nicely equipped with all the basics including an electric stove, dishwasher, microwave and refrigerator. Small appliances include a coffee maker and grinder, blender, rice cooker, crock pot, mixer, toaster, and electric kettle. There is a large washer and dryer, quality bedding, and plenty of beach and bath towels. Four beach chairs, a cooler and a beach umbrella are for use on the local beach or other beaches on the island.

We had an amazing Thanksgiving '21 week stay in this unit right on the beach in Keauhou. The unit is as described in the listing and we had no issues with anything in the unit. The management company was very responsive and all details on check in and access were provided on time. The unit is so close to the beach that you likely will have to close the windows in the main bedroom to get to sleep (we found that out the first night!). We went snorkeling straight out from the beach in front of the unit and the beach has few visitors other than those staying in the units. You can walk to Kahalu'u beach park which has a larger reef protected snorkeling area and also a decent break for surfing (a board rental place is adjacent to that break). The Hele Bus Trolley stop is also at Kahalu'u Beach so you can get away without a rental car (we only got one for 3 days of our time there) and still get to downtown Kailua-Kona and other stops along the way. The Keauhou Shopping Center is a short walk up a slight hill from the units and we enjoyed Tropics Tap House for good local brews and food. We used the pool, tennis courts, and ping pong table as much as we wanted. There were no onerous covid restrictions that restricted us from doing those activities. I highly recommend this gem in Keauhou for a family of four!

We stayed at this townhouse for eight nights in December 2021 and it was absolutely perfect for our family of 4. The unit had been recently renovated and was stunning. The townhouse itself was spotless and extremely well organized and equipped. The kitchen had everything we could ask for and more - really set up to entertain from. We ate all of our meals outside on the lanai watching the amazing ocean view and enjoying the local geckos. The beds were comfortable and having two full bathrooms was a plus when travelling with teenagers. The unit came equipped with everything we needed to enjoy the island, from beach chairs, beach towels, cooler, tennis racquets, table tennis supplies, pool noodles, and more. The in-suite laundry was so handy. Did I mention the view? Just wow.

The resort itself is in a great location, with easy access to snorkeling, shopping, restaurants, and a movie theater. The location made for easy day trips north or south of the island. We were frequent users of the resort's pool which was never crowded. The resort also had many barbecue stations available throughout the property.

The resort was decorated for Christmas with decorated Christmas trees throughout the property and lights, which made it feel like Christmas.

We would highly recommend this townhouse and look forward to returning.

Absolutely gorgeous, well appointed condo with excellent amenities and location. It was perfect for our family of 4 (parents & 2 teenagers). The "kids' room" was a comfortable size and having 2 full bathrooms was perfect. It is clear that the owners thought of everything from the hose and mat to rinse feet on the lanai to the spice/cooking cupboard, to the pots/pans, to the beach chairs and coolers. Fantastic breezes, comfortable furniture, great WiFi, easy to cook in kitchen, and generally quiet location/complex.
Master bed was comfortable; bedroom furniture was all solidly constructed (nothing from Target or Ikea). Sheets were good quality.
Everything was so clean -- exactly as pictured.
Our only issues really had nothing to do with the care and attention the owners have put into their gorgeous condo -- the TV remote was buggy and we had some issues with the dishwasher (totally a Knudson issue).
We will be back for sure!!
6 / 10Average·Dec 2018
The unit was a little dated, including the appliances. The microwave was old and some of the features didn't work. The coffee grinder didn't work. The washer and dryer in kitchen took up cabinet space. The dryer seamed to vent into the kitchen (not good on a hot day). The unit could have been cleaner. The dishes needed cleaning when we arrived (may be the hard water) and seemed to be a hodgepodge of pieces.
There were also **** roaches present, so the unit needed spraying.
We did enjoy the location, right on the beach and the pool and pool area was great.
