About this house rental
Unit 1
Our DIRECT OCEANFRONT corner unit (#1) has its own beach only 27 steps away from the lanai (patio). This end unit (no one below you or above you) has added privacy including a quiet grassy area. Experience sunsets year round and let the sound of the waves relax you. From the lanai, the seaside bedroom, and even the upstairs shower, enjoy watching green turtles grazing on the rocks, the spinner dolphins leaping (typically mornings), and the humpback whales breaching or tail-slapping offshore (during the winter birthing/mating season).
We are directly on a salt & pepper beach. At the far north end, lots of tide pools with critters & petroglyphs. At the closer south end, at high tide if the waves are calm, then experienced & fit snorkelers (with a buddy, never alone!) can find a variety of sea life. However, if a novice and/or the seas are rougher, then the Kahaluu state beach (just ~ 5 to 10 minute walk north of our bay) is full of sea life and a safer location (with protective ancient seawall & lifeguards).
Both bedrooms have Cal King beds. The living room has a sofa and love seat, 42” HDTV, DVD/BluRay player, & audio system (with plug & USB ports). Free high-speed WiFi & telephone (Free Calling Within U.S., Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Guam & The Virgin Islands.) Fully equipped kitchen for simple or elegant meals alike. We provide lots of extras: shampoo & conditioner, laundry detergent, dish washing soap, beach towels, snorkel gear, cooler, boogie boards, & beach chairs, etc. This unit is surfside-immersed with extensive jalousie windows letting the sea breeze & sounds drift upon you as readily as the light of sunsets or moonbeams (ceiling fans; no air conditioning).
Location: Our townhouse is located in Keauhou-Kona Surf & Racquet Club, a private 16-acre gated community ~5 miles south of downtown Kona. The complex offers 3 pro-grade lighted tennis courts. The complex offers 3 pro-grade lighted tennis courts (with tennis pro access and a pickleball option; please remember to bring non-marking tennis court shoes), a large swimming pool, a volleyball court, BBQ pits & gas grills. The grounds are lush with beautiful flowers. We are also within walking distance to Kona Country Club for golf (reduced rates if a Surf & Racquet Club guest) and the Keauhou Shopping Center with grocery & drug stores, restaurants, a movie theater, & a walk-in medical clinic….plus on Saturday mornings, visit their farmer’s market with local produce, Kona coffee, flowers, & fish. Our location is convenient to explore the Big Island or just relax near the sea!

8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The unit has a beautiful ocean view, and being able to hear the waves from the bedrooms at night—and even while showering upstairs—made the stay feel extra peaceful. The community is very quiet with lush, well‑kept grounds that add to the relaxing atmosphere.There’s no air conditioning, but the cross‑breeze with the windows open was lovely for us. Still, it’s something to consider depending on personal comfort. The location is great too: close to grocery stores and restaurants, yet far enough from the busy tourist areas to feel calm and private. We especially loved spending quiet mornings on the lanai.We did experience one unusual night where guests in another unit next door were extremely loud and inebriated late into the evening, yelling, cursing and drinking on their lanai. With the windows open it was definitely disruptive, but the host/property manager handled it quickly, and it didn’t happen again. Parking was easy, close by, and made coming and going simple.It was just my husband and me on this trip, and we would absolutely recommend this place for a peaceful getaway. I can’t speak in detail about all the kitchen utensils since I bring my own due to a gluten allergy, but there were items available, and the provided soap and shampoo were a nice touch. My only small suggestion would be to include basics like salt and pepper.Overall, a lovely and calming place to stay.

Nice, centrally located condo on the water. Very enjoyable.

The townhouse was very well kept. The beds were comfortable & the kitchen had all we needed to prepare meals. The lanai was in our opinion the best spot.
6 / 10Average·May 2026
NO AIR CONDITIONING With temperatures in the mid to high 80s and very high humidity during the month of May, this unit got uncomfortably hot during the day even with every fan available turned up high. To return to this townhome after the day's activities to change for dinner found it very hot and stuffy. The unit did cool down starting before sunset with a nice cool ocean breeze, and sleeping was comfortable with the windows open.
