Kona Sunset House on Walua: Breathtaking Ocean Views with Incredible Pool!

Gorgeous property in a gorgeous neighborhood with walking trails and very kind neighbors. There is no AC, so this was a pretty warm stay for us Texans.

The pool was great and so were the views. The property could use some maintenance. The cupboard door in the kitchen fell off when opened, the dishwasher heating element might need to be replaced, there is only enough hot water for 3 showers.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The team was very helpful but we close to zero internet throughout out stay. While the team sent a lovely person to help us reset the router the service didn't work for the entirety of our 10ish day stay. Though they offered to have a person from the internet company come out days later they couldn't nail down a time which didn't work for us as we have young children that need to nap. The reality is that the house does not have high speed internet which was massively inconvenient as this wasn't a pleasure trip. My wife was on a work trip and had to spend most days at a coffee shop so that she could work.

Only issue was the slow internet, otherwise great

The location was great with easy access to Kona and the beaches. The sunset views were a highlight. We wished we could have stayed longer and would book this house again.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The home is in a nice residential area next to a walking trail and just a short drive to Kailua-Kona town. The outdoor deck offers beautiful sunsets over the pool and backyard, with ocean views. While the pool was unheated and a bit chilly, we still enjoyed it.However, some issues left a bad impression:- The check-in process was inconvenient, requiring an in-person meeting instead of keyless entry- Cleanliness was a concern—we were horrified to find our mattress pads and pillows covered with old stains of bodily fluids. When we sent a message with photos, management simply responded that they would pass along our concerns to the owner- Basic supplies, such as trash bags and detergent, were limited to a small starter pack, requiring us to purchase more. When we asked management for more, we were told per our contract that was all they would provide. This felt unnecessary given that we paid almost 7,000 for our stay. And why discourage guests from cleaning?-Communication from management was not always friendly, including a text threatening a fine for not bringing the trash can to the street, despite us being unaware of the requirement. After checkout, management asked if we had concerns we wanted to address before posting a review, which felt more like reputation management than genuine concern.Despite this, we enjoyed the location and views. These are easily corrected issues and if fixed, I would wholeheartedly recommend this home!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great home, with everything you can ask for. Easy to get to from the airport, and an (almost) central point to set up as the base to explore the whole island. Knutson team was very helpful. Met us at the house for check-in, and also checked in with us a couple of days later.

Great place for the Gmail

The house was good. The lanai view was amazing. The pool is OK. I would not come back again because you have to have an in person check-in.
