Disliked: Amenities
We may have been just unlucky. The room we got was conveniently located next to the gate leading to the beach, restaurants, etc. Even had a peekaboo view of the ocean. However, it was super noisy. Besides the ongoing road noise, there were teenagers riding by blasting music, and a homeless guy who created such a ruckus (I kinda think he wanted to be arrested). We tried changing rooms, but nothing else was available. It should be noted that this is not operated like a hotel. Rarely is anyone managing the front desk.Our TV didn’t work. I had to call someone in Maui to send maintenance. It was fixed. Parking is also a problem. There aren’t enough stalls for the # of units.

Excellent location, and a few favorable attributes, but some issues too: poor lighting, two broken interior doors, hot tub out of order, and some unwelcome noise.

It was obvious that no one had stayed in our room for a long time. Thick dust on every surface and I had to clean. Even the lights by the bed were dusty. I also had to sweep the balcony.

This little one bed condo suite was perfect us. With a mini kitchenette, mini fridge, coffee maker. Parking was always full, however we were able find a space to park. Walking distance to shopping and dining. Love walking up and down Ali Drive. Perfect sunsets can be seen at any restaurant on Ali Drive. We did not drive much. Grocery stores are under 10 minute drive. We love staying at Kona Islander Inn for its convenience to food and shops.

Staff was great but it was a real process getting the correct password for our wifi. It was just out of date and they had to contact the rental company over in Maui. Otherwise we had a nice time!

Checked all the boxes:)

Loved it! very convenient for our group of friends. We did not realize it was not a “hotel” nonetheless our host communicated with us via text which made it more personable. Hoping to get the same two units next year TY :)

The outside was beautiful but had a lot of cats and smelled like cat piss. Limited parking had to park away from facility. Room was infested with roaches and mosquitoes. Bathroom shower was gritty and rusted.Room was supposed to be non-smoking but smelled an overwhelming scent of cigarettes.Could not stay one night in my room had to get another hotel.

Echoing most of the reviews for this property. The condo was small, but fit our needs (2 guests). Check in was fine, and I was aware that the condos are owned privately and didn't have in-house guest services. It is a good location due to its vicinity to restaurants and shops. I had a view of the beach, but at times it did get noisy because of cars passing by blasting their music. The negatives I had was that the AC was too loud and agitated my allergies. Parking was also an issue. If you get in late, you'll need to find street parking.

Parking lot not large enough for number of units. These are condos, this is not a hotel. No onsite support. Units are in rough shape. No elevators for elderly or movement impaired. Street noise is very loud. AC unit was the loudest that I have ever heard. Fire alarm had low battery in unit bellow us and so it beeped all night, since no onsite support, no help. This needs to be classified as an AirBnB like location, not a hotel.
