Cockroaches can make a good place---bad.

The first impression was very good. Upon a closer look we saw the cockroaches in the kitchen. They did come spray but we ... still saw them. The bathrooms were not cleaned up to par. Overall we had a nice time, but I would not stay there again. The snorkeling at Kahaluu beach park was the best, tons of fish and turtles each time we went. Go in the morning.

Me and my fiance' really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was friendly and rooms were private and quiet. Clean rooms, ... kitchens stocked with anything you would need to cook your own meals, not too far from town either. Walking distance to the resort was a small grocery and liquor store which made bringing things back convienent. We had a nice view and there was a nice sandy area right on the water to sit and watch the waves come in and lots of surfers. We liked the place so much and were feeling the mood that he proposed! We are definetly going back to Kona by the Sea our next Hawaii trip.

We went snorkeling, to a luau, and also did the glass bottom boat dinner cruise at sunset. Our favorite was the dinner cruise, really good food, great entertainment. Musician and really fun hula dancer. Food was awesome and the sunset was worth a million. We seen various types of fish and several manta rays so it was definetly an experience. Boat was called Spirt of Kona (its yellow and blue).

The best thing about this place is the view. Unlike some places that promise an ocean view and you find out you only have ... half of one or part of one if you crane your neck, at Kona by the Sea each condo has a balcony that faces the ocean. It also has a beautiful lanai with its own laval rock tidepool, which makes for a great place to catch the sunset.

luxurious getaway with ocean view
Happy to have been in Hawaii Aug 31, 2009
This is a wonderful home away from home while on vacation. We would definitely stay here again. The place is spacious and ... the view of the ocean is first rate. Wow!
Traveler type: Family
The ocean quickly washes away sunscreen (something I did not know before this trip). I recommend reapplying sunscreen every half hour or wearing some kind of protective clothing while swimming in the ocean. You don't want to burn like I did. I was in the water for 1 1/2 hours with SPF 60. At home, that would have been okay. It's not okay in the ocean. I burned (big time).

Great property, BUT.....
Norm Jul 30, 2009
Was given oceanview room when booked a oceanfront room. Was told our room was considered a oceanfront because it was near the ... end of the building facing 45 degrees to ocean. After having to haggle with lady at check-in desk, I finally was given a better oceanview room with 2 bdrms for an additional $15 a night. Not a friendly or nice way to start a vacation designed to be stress free and fun. Room was nice and had good view of pool, ocean, and property. This property is "Great" enjoyed the stay. Is just far enough from downtown Kona,and the rest of staff was professional and helpful. They just need to clarify that some of their supposed oceanfront rooms do not directly face the ocean. (Always thought oceanfront faced ocean.) Would stay there again as they are really a privately owned group of condos that have maid service daily and managed by a pretty good staff. Small market is a short walking distance, and farmers market is almost directly across the street. Rooms have nice kitchens and washer dryers, a real plus for cleaning wets suits and eating some meals.

Ate at Pancho and Lefty's in Kona, food was great, not too crowded, and Jackie Rey's Ohana Grill was also great and less than 2 miles from property. Both informal attire shorts shirts. Jameson's by the Sea is about 3-4mi south on ali drive is a more formal restuarant, but the seafood and location were awesome. Price for 3 is around $150-200, for a great meal and drinks, well worth it for what you get.

Amazing View
Pat Mom59 Jul 8, 2009
I recently stayed at Kona by the Sea for a week (June 13 - 20, 2009) with my family and my sister and her daugter. We were ... six in total and got two condos. One was 2B/2B unit#417 and the other was 1B/2B unit#419. We all absolutely loved it. We were oceanfront and the view from our lanais was just gorgeous. I loved to hear the sound of the waves crashing, it was so relaxing. The units were very well equipped with everything you needed. It even had an in-unit laundry. It is about a mile to the village and my husband really enjoyed his early morning walks to the village. He'll go to have his coffee and roll at Lava Java and walk back to the condo enjoying the scenery, maybe I'll join him next time. We had an amazing time and hope to return one day and we will definitely be staying at Kona by the Sea.

A short drive from the Condo was a Walmart and Costco. Costco is great for grocery items and the food court and gas prices cannot be beat any where else. Walmart prices are great for souvenirs and macadamian nut products.

No TV in the master bedroom and lighting on the lanai would have helped.

Convenient/ Good Value

The room smells a little musty and the soaps, shampoos and coffee isn't restocked daily but other than that it was a great ... place to stay. Close to most everything. The fact that it is an efficency style hotel that includes a full kitchen as well as a washer/dryer was great. Considering how expensive everything is in Hawaii, making your own meals a few times can reallly stretch your dollar. The property is nice and well maintained. Overall I would stay there again.
