Kona Coast Resort at Keauhou Gardens 8204

We had a wonderful time! The property was just as described and such a wonderful view of the ocean that was enjoyed each morning and evening. The kitchen was stocked with all the needs, we didn't want for anything. And an unexpected bonus found on the last morning was a scale in the bathroom that came in handy for weighing suitcases! This was a first and so appreciated! We would stay again!

Loved our stay. Morning coffee each day on lanai with ocean views. Beds were super comfy. Lots of towels and great to have a washer and dryer We hand washed our dishes but one day I let dishes dry in dishwasher and was surprised to see the dishwasher had an interior light! There’s masks, snorkels and fins Beach chairs too Coffee makers - flat bottom drip and a French Press. The quiet pool with lounges and umbrellas is real close. BBQ stations were scattered around the property and close by the unit. Highly recommend. Grocery store and restaurants are very close by. Get the poke at KTA (grocery store)

This rental property was very nice. Everything was nicely done. Property was clean and well maintained. We have stated at Kona Coast resort a number of times previously. This was the best of the lot.

Manager's Response

Our family loved staying at this hidden gem, Kona Coast Resort at Keauhou Gardens 8204. We were amazed at the spacious and luxurious interior, and loved the ocean view lanai. Parking was a breeze, and the amenities were fantastic. What we loved most is having the comfort, luxury, and space to truly enjoy our vacation, while taking care to treat the beautiful furnishings to preserve the wonderful ambiance for future vacationers to enjoy. We intend to come back and stay at this condo for many years in the future. Mahalo for a wonderful experience that my family will treasure for years to come.

The unit was very clean and comfortable and located in a quiet and convenient location near Keauhou shopping center. The unit was pleasantly decorated with local Hawaiian decor and it was a joy to stay there.

Manager's Response

The property was well positioned to anywhere on the island. It was clean, well organized, and very comfortable. It was a big factor in making our stay a success. The morning coffee on the deck looking out over the grounds and water in the distance was so relaxing. A great start to every day. Very quiet location within the complex as well. The location was close to grocery stores and restaurants. I would recommend this property to friends and family.

Lovely condo. In a great location. Met all our needs.

Manager's Response

The property was lovely! The pictures don't do it justice. Feels very homey. Place comes with all your home necessities. Able to accommodate our early check in.

Manager's Response

This condo was lovely! It's been well maintained and the layout was really nice - there was a lot of space for all of us! The lanai was absolutely stunning - probably one of our favorite parts of the condo. The location was nearby lots of things, so that was also great. Really, everything you could need for a relaxing stay in Kona - comfortable bedrooms, fabulous & huge lanai, ample kitchen, great bathrooms, and even a washer & dryer! Overall, it was a great condo and we'd definitely consider staying there again! Knutson & Associates were awesome and very timely with responses - also a great experience!

Great place, sunset views incredible facilities.

Manager's Response

The property was extremely clean and well-maintained. The decor was very pleasing and added to the pleasurable experience. You never heard neighbors. It was very pleasant!

Manager's Response

We could have given 5 stars if the garbage disposal was cleaned out. My head bumped into the roof beam on the attic bedroom even if a red tape was placed on it as warning. If the bed can be relocated elsewhere, it would have been perfect.

Manager's Response

Condo is exactly as described. Very well stocked and clean. The resort grounds are clean, and roomy. Plenty of amenities for the entire group. Pools are well located and everything looks new ( BBQ grills, furniture, sports equipment, etc). Very quiet and staff are friendly. The restaurant serves great food. All in all...5/5.

Manager's Response

We enjoyed staying here. The pool was great and the place was close to amenities.

Manager's Response

This property is total luxury! Every room is spacious and well-equipped. The location is central to anything you may want to do in Kona but away from city noise. I had the pleasure of working with a couple of lovely ladies on the management team. They were super helpful as was the property office. From my family, thank you for a wonderful stay!

Manager's Response

We enjoyed the sunset views, pool, hot tub, and tennis. Beautifully manicured grounds and pathways. The staff was friendly. The condo had all we needed to cook. Enjoyed everything about our stay. Thank you for the opportunity to stay at your place!

We have traveled the US, Europe, Mexico, Northern Africa, and Middle East, and thus was BY FAR the BEST accommodations we've experienced,

Manager's Response

Great place, good location. Unit could stand to be updated a bit. very clean. Nice sized unit.

Manager's Response

This unit is perfectly placed and perfectly priced! Just a couple of blocks East to the farmers’ market and a couple of blocks west to the Pacific, this is a perfect location to escape for a couple of days, weeks, or months. The Kona Country Club is basically next door and one of the nicest resort courses we have played. Our evenings on the lanai provided fabulous sunsets and lasting memories.

Manager's Response

Provided 2rolls tp per toilet 1 small soap per bathroom 1small shampoo 1small conditioner no Kleenex . Dish soap paper towels 4laundry packs salt pepper veg oil we asked and and received 5 dishwasher capsules. Good ac which switch up to fans .cons the site we booked on says nothing about resort fees 300$ or security deposit also you have to sign a 9 page requirement agreement about cleaning and lock up etc

Manager's Response

Let me begin by saying we have stayed at the Kona Coast many times and it never disappoints. This was our first time working with Knutson & Associates Property Management & Real Estate Sales. They're very efficient from the booking until checking out. We had something come up during our stay and they had an immediate response and resolution. You can't ask for more than that. I work in the real estate industry and was very impressed. The unit we stayed in was dated, but in good condition, very clean and well equipped. We for sure would stay again.

Manager's Response

This condo has everything you need for an amazing time in Kona. Air conditioning throughout and privacy with the second bedroom upstairs. Beautiful lanai with an ocean view.

Manager's Response

Overall, we had a great stay. The unit we stayed in was very spacious but furnishings were outdated. Great location and nice amenities.

Good location, spacious, great extra bedroom upstairs, nice furnishings, great lanai. Dishwasher did not work entire week, A/C remotes didn’t work to turn it OFF, very dark bedroom, found a smashed sink strainer covered w/dust bunnies on kitchen floor, not sure where to hang wet bathtowels & washcloths (1 towel rack).

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful time. The condo was amazing and the property was impeccable. It’s located close to the airport in kona. Clean, quiet and beautiful

Manager's Response

We can't say enough good things about the how nice the place was. Management company was nice and the service was good.

Being a private rental inside of resort that operates as both private owned units and a hotel it was a little confusing at first but with a few short questions the management at the resort was very helpful, patient and understanding.

The concierge at the gate was a bit overwhelming but that's not the owners fault, its the HOA.

Overall the experience was nice and the pictures underplay how nice the unit is. Very, very cold old AC in every room. Which was nice. Very Clean and mold smell free.

Everything worked great flat screens in every room. Allot of free perks!! Great for a four person rental.

Manager's Response

We loved our stay! The rental was clean, tastefully decorated and the view from the deck was amazing. I loved having my coffee with a view every morning, it made for a true vacation. The rental had perfect placing between everything we wanted to do and of course the pools and hot tubs lived up to their pictures. And of course the staff was super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Manager's Response

We rented this property during our recent visit to Kailua-Kona for our son's and our daughter-in-law's wedding. We wanted a rental unit that would be conducive for entertaining and convenient to the Kona Coast and the various attractions the Big Island has to offer. This property proved to be the perfect choice. This is a beautifully decorated and well maintained property. We arrived for check-in and were greeted by the resort's friendly, helpful staff. Knutson & Associates promptly contacted us by email after check-in to ensure everything was as we expected. The kitchen is well stocked with all cooking appliances and utensils. The only improvements we can think of would be a more user friendly key lock box and retractable shades for the balcony as the afternoon sun can be intense. We would highly recommend this property and will definitely book this property through Knutson & Associates for our next visit to Hawaii.

We enjoyed our stay at the Kona Coast resort.
The property was in a great location.
One night the kids wanted to stay there by themself.
They wanted to hang out at the pool. We gave them some money to have dinner at the pool while we went on a date.
We would rent this property again.

Manager's Response

Nice Place! Clean, Comfortable. The resort bar/restaurant is really good, the pool is kept clean and was a welcome pleasure while we stayed. They also have live entertainment on certain nights that we really enjoyed. this place is very close to shopping for groceries, local restaurants, our favorites were a local BBQ place and an Italian place that had incredible spaghetti and pizza. Kona is a short drive away for all the shopping and dinning in town. we really enjoy ourselves, I highly recommend this place!

Thank you!

From the moment we checked in, our stay at Kona Coast Resort was seamless and enjoyable. The condo was spacious and beautiful, with a nice view of the ocean. We had a snafu with the dishwasher and the rental management team was on the spot, answering our call immediately and sending a repair specialist within 30 minutes of our call. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Kona. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Kona!

Manager's Response

This place is great! I am a former Big Island resident for many years and was coming home to visit friends/ohana. The condo is wonderful. Having AC was nice to sleep at night. The condo has everything you need to have a great stay. Washer/Dryer came in very handy too! Will definitely stay here again!

A lovely air conditioned, well equipped two bedroom, two bath condo with the second bedroom in a loft. Large balcony with ocean view.

The Kona Coast Resort Keauhou Gardens 8204 was perfect. Great location, close to the beach and to town. The accommodations were lovely, beautifully decorated, and well maintained.

The Condo that we stayed in at the Kona Coast Resort was great. My husband I and our 2 cousins that stayed with us would give this 2bedroom and 2 bath a 5 star rating. Just a beautiful place to stay. so nicely decorated, a very homey feeling about the place. The beds were comfortable, we all were talking about that after a couple of nights. the bathroom on the main floor has a large walk in shower with 2 shower heads. The condo was spacious in its self. we spent most all the time on the lanai (deck) which is covered. This was our favorite room of the condo. Kitchen was bright and easy to get around. the management company has starter package of dish cleaner, garbage bags and ect, ect. very nice thing to do for guests. location was Ideal for getting around. take a left turn out of the resort and you are on the road that is next to the ocean with beach's and eventually you will end up where you can shop and eat at numerous restaurants. You go straight up the hill from the resort and you come to the shopping mall that has the grocery store which has a liquor store in it. close to the airport about 20 minutes depending on traffic. One other thing about our resort that we stayed at is the main swimming pool has a very nice restaurant and bar next to it and a few evenings there was live music being played. very nice. We would recomend anyone to stay there. The best Snorkeling that we found was only about a half a mile from the resort, it was a park and open to the public, has life guards on duty but is a must to wear water shoes. We plan on returning to visit in a couple of years and will stay at the Kona Coast Resort.

The condo is very comfortable and the furnishings are beautiful. The kitchen is well equipped with anything you need to prepare a meal,except it could use some potholders. It is very quiet and would recommend the condo for your stay.

very clean and tastefully decorated. Lots of kitchens utensils-loved being able to grill our meals and sit on the lanai and enjoy a cup of coffee!

Great location. Huge. Beautiful furniture. Up stairs bedroom and bath. All the amenities. Even had a small Library/office. Huge deck. Can see the ocean sunsets are amazing. No barbecue.

Everything was nice

Manager's Response

The condo was exactly as described. The location was great and the unit was very quite. The unit and the property is well maintained. We could see sunset from the lanai, which is large. The unit is well equipped for any length of the stay. Highly recommended.

Manager's Response

Property was clean, comfortable, large, well-equped, and well-located. We had a very good week away from winter.

Manager's Response

Was everything we expected and more. Spacious, clean, great view, quiet and all the comforts of home! Would love to return!

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for sharing your condo with us. We loved our stay at the kona Resort a lot different from the other island. We would recommend this
property to our friends. Shopping and restaurants very close to the resort. We will keep this unit on our list thanks again.

Manager's Response

We found this place to be just what we wanted. A place where you could relax and have plenty of room for friends when they came to visit. It was within walking distance of the beach and the store. It also had easy access to the main road leading to the airport and to Volcano

Manager's Response

The vacation rental was really clean, comfortable, and a good location to relax. Blake Kessner along with Knutson & Associates were super helpful and very personsonal. They always responded quickly and helped out when they could. We will definitely book with them again.

Manager's Response

The place was as is a very nice place and well furnished and stocked. The tennis courts could use some repairs but we did play on them.

Manager's Response

We had a great time in 8204 at Kona Coast Resort at Keauhou Gardens. The pictures on VRBO do the place justice; they are accurate. The loft is locked, obviously for use by the owners. Nevertheless, there was plenty of room on the main level for the two of us. We loved the oversized bathroom with the two-person shower. The lanai overlooks the resort, with the ocean visible just off to our right. The views of the sunrises and sunsets were breathtaking. The air conditioning units in the living room and bedroom worked fine. Wireless Internet was good. If you normally sleep on a firm mattress, the bedroom will suit you well.

The resort has a number of amenities available for renters of 8204 - tennis courts, shuffleboard, a poolside bar & grill - all of which made our stay memorable. A couple of Weber barbecues are available for your use a short 30-second walk from 8204; they are communal.

The service we received from Knutson & Associates was very good; a couple minor maintenance issues were swiftly resolved to our satisfaction. Any questions we had were answered promptly and professionally.

The location was perfect - a short drive or nice walk from the Keauhou Shopping Centre and Sam Choy's.

We would recommend this property for a couple.

Manager's Response

What a beautiful spot. Clean, great location, very well equipped and beautifully decorated. My wife and I have stayed in numerous places on the Big Island over the past 20 years and this one is at the top of the list. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Finding the right building and getting WiFi and pool access could be improved with more information. Overall it was the perfect getaway.

Manager's Response

This was a beautiful, air-conditioned, fully equipped condo in beautiful Kona, Hawaii. The condo was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Very close to downtown, beaches, shopping and the airport. The grounds and amenities on the resort were excellent. Would definitely stay there again.

Manager's Response

My husband and I stayed at Kona Gardens for 5 weeks. It was truly like being in paradise. All amenities, comfort and servises that resort has to offer is is beyond amagination. Condo was very tastefully furnished and fully equipped. Watching sunsets from huge beautiful lanai were amazing! 24 hour guards on duty made us feel very safe! Knutson & Associates made our staying great & hassle free. We loved it and recommended to all our friends! Mahalo!

Manager's Response

It was a very nice place. Great value.

Excellent

Very satisfied with condo, this is 7th year we have stayed in this condo.

Our rental experience could not have been better.
My daughter competed in her first Ironman World Chanpionship in Kona and our rental played a big part in making this race fantastic. The rental was just far enough away from downtown Kona to be relazing and close enough to the highway to conveniently get to anywhere we wanted on the island.
We are already making plans to return to Hawaii for the 2013 race and hope to rent through Kona Resort Rentals again.
Thank you

Excellent

This condo was pretty nice. You can tell the owners care about the place...great matresses and everything you could need from coolers to towels and more. The only bummer is that the property is pretty far from the ocean. We knew we wouldn't be oceanfront, but there is a huge golf course between you and the water. The pool area was pretty nice...and the condo complex is well set up for kids (we had our 4 year old with us so having the pool & playgronds on site was nice.) The staff was friendly. A great value for Hawaii...and if it was adults only I'd suggest an oceanfront place with less amenities to drink in the ocean. Again, this unit is well done and very well cared for.

We had the most relxing holiday in 20 years at this home from home in Kona.
Clean great location,quiet and everything you could want . 2 pools on site, shops over the road and the most pleasant staff with a warm smile day after day, Who could ask for more ? We will be back !!

Very nice condo. Great location.
