The great room has soaring vaulted, wooden beamed ceilings and ceiling fans in both the living and dining rooms. The lanai has two beautiful teak dining tables and seating for four.

—top quality beach chairs, a beach umbrella, mats and coolers
—washer and dryer

—swimming pool, fantastic lava rock 'volcano spa' hot tub, decks, and BBQ grills and tables/chairs for outside dining with fantastic ocean views

The condo community is ideally located mid-way between the towns of Kona and Hilo, along the beautiful Punalu'u black sand beach, which is the most expansive and easily accessible black sand beach on the Big Island, famous for its sea turtles, sunbathing, and coastal hikes. Just a short drive away, you will find a variety of sites and activities to explore, including the spectacular and recently reopened Volcanoes National Park, the magnificent Green Sands Beach, Kula Kai Caverns, the Ka'u Coffee Mill & Museum, golf courses, spas and more!

    The owner was well organized, communicated very well, and thought of everything. We would not hesitate to stay here again if ever in Hawaii again.

    This really is a 10 minute walk to a black beach with TONS of sea turtles. We lost count of how many we saw. The parking is excellent. And we loved the lanai where a gecko joined us for breakfast one morning. The kitchen is well equipped. The host is very responsive.

    The condo was extremely charming! The instructions regarding arrival were extremely clear and they left is with zero questions. The condo it selfwas clean and very charming. The location was perfect. The black sand beach is less than a 5 min walk and very stunning. Volcano National apark was less than 30 min away. The pool was crisp and refreshing and the hot tub was delightful. I would definitely recommend as well as return! Just loved it!

    This was our first time to Hawaii and we were blown away by the intense beauty of the beaches and landscape. The condo is very cute and stocked with everything you need for the beach including towels, sun umbrella, beach chairs, etc. The place is very warm during the day and there's no AC, but it cools dow.
