We arrived to find the condo prepared for us and as described. Being on the top floor of three it can become warm, but for us the several fans and on-shore breeze provided the cooling needed. The lanai was great and we made good use of it. The bed and seating were comfortable.However, I'll mention that one of the four chairs on the lanai was in need of repair to the seat, so hopefully that will be done in time for the next guest's arrival.The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, glasses, and the usual etc. But the utility knives are badly in need of sharpening with a tool that does more serious work than the normal hand-held sharpener that is included in the knife block.We didn't see this mentioned in earlier reviews, so we want to say "thanks" for the presence in the bathrooms of small shampoo, conditioner, moisturizer and bar soap.We enjoyed having the geckos with us, both inside and outside.Not much was needed from the CB folks, although one pre-arrival request was acted upon promptly and professionally, and upon departure had a very pleasant brief encounter with the cleaning lady.Yes, we would stay at this condo again.

We had the most amazing time on the Big Island and part of it was due to our amazing stay here! The unit was stocked well, and we loved the coffee sample they gave us so much that we went and bought a full size bag to take home with us! The view was absolutely stunning, and my husband and I were already talking about coming back and staying again. The location was convenient to everything, but quiet and out of the hustle and bustle of town. There is no central AC but you really don’t need it with all the fans, and the ability to open the windows and let the ocean breeze in! Thank you for an incredible stay!

Everything about the accommodations, location, etc. was excellent and we would return in the future. Other guest reviews mentioned that climbing the stairs to the third floor was a bit taxing, especially carrying luggage, groceries, etc. Having our backpacks with us made it a bit easier for the latter. There's a total of 28 steps to climb. Be sure you can handle that 2 or 3 times a day. We experienced some confusion checking in after dark. As in the past our GPS software could not figure out the Hawaiian addressing format and will took us to a ficticious location. The complex is just around a sharp curve. The sign is obscured by vegetation until you are about to pass it and not well lit. We spent a lot of time wondering around in the dark trying to find it. The rental agent returned our call for help just a few minutes after we placed it. This was midnight. She walked us through finding it. That's service! The printed verbal instructions for finding the place could have been more clearly written. A street map to the driveway off Alii Drive would have helped immensely. Finally, on the VBRO website, the 3/4 view, wide angle image of the living area can be misleading. The far wall is a top-to-bottom, side-to-side mirror, which gave us the impression the space is twice as big as it really is. I can't say whether this was intentionally misleading. This image should be deleted. The living room is spacious enough for two - maybe too small for four with couch open into a bed.

Beautiful place, wonderful amenities!
Just be aware, the place does not have any AC (it is listed as no central air, but be aware there is no ac unit whatsoever).
Also, the property has very strict rules, and some residents were very unfriendly towards us over them. On our first night moving in, we had a neighbor yell at us for rolling our luggage in because we were being too loud. We additionally were given notes from the property about not being able to have a phone call on our lanai and backing in to the parking spot in which they threatened to contact our property manager.
Overall, this place was beautiful, very clean, and had many things that helped our vacation go smoothly (coolers, chairs, towels, etc). We absolutely loved the place itself. However, the strictness of the rules and the unfriendliness of neighbors made us feel very unwelcome as paying guests.
