Beach House Rentals By Owner ID#56
Location: Hawaii, USA

Our 5 studio condo units have been rated 4 stars by AAA Traveler info! They recommend my units and say they are the "BEST DEAL in Kona, great price and quality accomodations!!! Frommer's Review says This is the most affordable place to stay in Kailua-Kona. These plantation-style, three-story buildings are surrounded by lush, palm-tree-lined gardens with torch-lit pathways that make it hard to believe you're smack-dab in the middle of downtown. The central location -- across the street from the historic Kona Inn Shops -- is convenient. The units were recently upgraded and outfitted with tile floors,new appliances, new bedspreads and curtains, and a fresh coat of paint Our Tropical Oceanfront Resort Retreat is located on the main street of Alii Drive in center of downtown romantic Kona,Hawaii. My units have recently been remodeled! All 5 of them have new kitchen cabinets, new countertops/sinks, new tile floors, very comfortable queen size beds,nice hawaiian rattan couch that also folds into a queen size-hide abed, solid oak dining table and chairs, dressers, entertainment centers, glass-top tables and chairs on the large lanai. Our units are fully furnished with everything you will need for a short or extended stay! Also new ceiling fans and new air conditioners.

TRAVELER REVIEWS WE HAVE RECEIVED OR FOUND ON WEB SITES REGARDING OUR UNITS

Traveler rating: 3.9 out of 4 stars

Kailua-Kona: Kona Islander Inn: "Very Happy with Room 329

We just returned from a wonderful week in Kona (returned on October 24th, 2007) and stayed in Room 329.
According to other reviews this is a hit and miss lodging, depending on the unit, because each unit is owned by individuals that may or may not keep their units clean and updated. All I can say is we were very happy with room 329 with an oceanview and it's easy to visit all the great restaurants and great sunset watering holes in town quite easily by foot.

For the value, you can't beat it... There is no maid service (which is no big deal), The noise from the street was not as bad as some have described, as a matter of fact the sound of the ocean waves is the predominant (and peaceful) sound we heard.

Traveler rating:4 ****
Kailua-Kona: Kona Islander Inn: "above average"
A TripAdvisor Member, Hi july 19, 2007
My husband and I stayed ocean view in room #327 and it was very clean and well kept. Its so nice to just walk out the front door in any direction and have it all at your finger tips. Its pretty small but who needs a lot of room. It fits a couple just fine.

Traveler rating:4****
Kailua-Kona: Kona Islander Inn: "Beautiful Kona"
Jul 3, 2007
The Kona Islander Inn is a simple yet delightful hotel/apartment complex in Kailua-Kona. My wife and I have stayed there for several weeks while on vacation in Hawai'i. The condos themselves are small and simple, but all are clean and have all the facilities we wanted. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.

It is well located just a few minutes walk from the center of Kona and close to shops, a great ocean-side bar and the Wyland gallery of marine art.We look forward to going again.

Here is one of our repeat guests that stays in our units twice a month
