Kona Reef A-24 - True Oceanfront Condo

Honu Haven at Kona Reef – Oceanfront Bliss in Historic Kailua Village

Welcome to Honu Haven, your relaxing oceanfront escape at Kona Reef Unit A24 in the heart of historic Kailua-Kona. From the moment you walk through the door, the soothing sound of the Pacific Ocean invites you to slow down, unwind, and embrace island time. Watch the waves roll in, enjoy unforgettable sunsets from your private lanai, and experience the magic of oceanfront living on the Kona Coast.

This beautifully updated 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo combines comfort, convenience, and breathtaking views. A split AC system keeps both the living room and bedroom cool and comfortable, while UV-coated sliding glass doors help reduce afternoon heat without blocking the incredible ocean scenery. The living room also features a brand-new sleeper sofa, making the condo ideal for couples, small families, or friends traveling together.

Condo Features & Amenities
Split-zone air conditioning in living room and bedroom
High-speed Wi-Fi
Washer & dryer in unit
Comfortable new sleeper sofa
Hair dryer & iron
Fully equipped kitchen
Private oceanfront lanai

For beach days and island adventures, the condo includes beach chairs, beach towels, an umbrella, and a small cooler for guest use. While occasional snorkel gear may be left behind by previous guests, we recommend renting professionally fitted equipment locally for the best snorkeling experience.

Kona Reef Resort
Kona Reef is one of Kailua-Kona's most desirable oceanfront resorts, perfectly situated next to Honl's Beach — a favorite local surf spot and sandy shoreline. The beautifully maintained grounds offer sweeping ocean views, tropical landscaping, and front-row seats to Hawaii's natural beauty. During the winter months, watch humpback whales breach offshore, enjoy year-round spinner dolphin sightings, and take in world-famous Kona sunsets right from your lanai.
The resort's prime location places you within walking distance of Kailua Village's restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, nightlife, farmers markets, and ocean activities. Snorkeling, surfing, paddleboarding, fishing charters, and sunset cruises are all just minutes away.

Explore Kona Without the Hassle
Driving is optional during your stay. The open-air Kona Trolley (Hele-On Route 201) travels along scenic Ali'i Drive between Kailua-Kona and Keauhou seven days a week, making it easy and affordable to explore the coastline, beaches, restaurants, and shopping areas.

Oceanfront Property Disclosure
One of the most special features of Honu Haven is its incredibly close proximity to the ocean. During the winter months, Hawaii can experience large ocean swells, strong winds, and occasional sea spray. At times, salt mist may accumulate on the lanai glass, and weather conditions can make the lanai breezy or damp. For many guests, this is all part of the authentic oceanfront experience — dramatic waves, cooling trade winds, and the ever-changing beauty of the Pacific. If you prefer a more sheltered setting farther from the shoreline, please feel free to inquire about our other available properties.

KONA REEF Spalling Project Update - The A building will be completed by June 10, 2026. The site project will continue around the rest of the buildings through the fall. Once completed, the project will shift to parking lot repaving through the rest of the year. There should be no direct disruptions to guests staying at A27. There will be some occasional noise during business ours of weekdays.

This beautiful place was a home away from home with the best ocean views! The owners are such gracious hosts and put such great efforts into having everything there that you will need to have a wonderful stay! We loved its cleanliness, adorable decorations and both the main bedroom bed and pull out sofa beds were super comfortable to sleep on. It really helped to have air conditioning in both the bedroom and livingrooms as it can get a bit humid and we were in 7th heaven inside. We are definatley coming back!

I’m not sure who is considered the host. We could have used more details -it took us a couple days to locate the keys to the pool area and never did figure out how to turn on the ceiling fan in the living room. The unit is well equipped and comfortable

We really enjoyed our stay! The condo was updated, clean and very comfortable. It was walking distance to Kona shops and restaurants. After a day of exploring the island or visiting a beach it was nice to come back to. The beach chairs and umbrella, cooler and snorkel gear were also very much appreciated. We also enjoyed the pool and cooking area although the grills could be updated. They didn’t always heat up. We loved sitting on the lanai watching the waves, surfers and of course the beautiful sunsets.
