REVIEWS:

Toni - May 2021 - Our stay here was awesome! The space was all we expected and more. I know the drive from the airport sounds like a lot but it worked perfect because when we spent time in Hilo the drive wasn’t as bad as driving from Kona and we were very close to the Black Sands Beach and Green Sands Beach. We went in early May and the fans worked well but with the warmer summers I think it might be a little tough. I wish we had gone when the jacuzzi was open but hoping to be back again soon! The pool was great and easy to sign up for; as well as the WiFi. Amenities included black coffee and a working fridge and pots and pans so definitely stop at a market for the basics. I definitely recommend this spot!

Joshua- April 2021 - Julie's condo located near the southern end of the Big Island. It's a quiet community surrounded by Volcano National Park and is within about an hours drive of some of the nicest black sand beaches. If you're looking for a nice place to relax and explore, this is the place for you!

Kimberly - Jan 2018 -  The condo complex has good amenities and is a 5 minute walk from the black sand beach.  Communication was great and we liked the information and arrival stuff in the fridge. The condo complex was great!

Jonathan - Dec 2017 -  “The condo complex is immaculate, well maintained and, most importantly, very kid friendly. Our 3 y.o. met new friends and played in the pool twice a day. The public spaces are well thought out. We used the grill as did others. Unit 5 is across from the grill and pool which makes it slightly less private than other units in the complex. I guess that would be a problem if there were wild shenanigans going on at all hours but that was not the case. The quiet hour rules are followed respectfully. We liked the location and took advantage of walks to the beach and rocky shore. We would have loved to stay longer. Ah well, next year.”

Raylynn - Mar 2018 - “Great little cozy condo with everything you need. It is located across the pool which my children enjoyed. I enjoyed the ocean view while having my coffee on the patio. Beautifully kept grounds and common areas. Had a wonderful relaxing stay. Will visit again!”

Andy - Mar 2019 - “This is a cozy space - ideally for two - on the south shore of the Big Island. It's loft-sized - a bedroom connected to a living space connected to a kitchenette. It's clean and well-maintained. The patio door opens onto a great little patio area, which is just steps away from the pool, BBQ area, and hot tubs. The facility is grown-up - there are a few kids, but the vibe is mature and respectful - we met some really nice people here. The south shore of Hawaii is quiet - this is a place to unwind, and you'll have to travel to do things. About food: there are groceries 10-15 minutes away by car, as well as some excellent restaurants in Na'ahelu. No need to panic and buy food in Hilo or Kona when you land.”
