This property is right next door to Honl’s Beach, the place where boogie boarding was first invented. Our ocean-view room was fantastic - very comfortable, lovely view, loved having breakfast on the lanai each morning listening to the waves and rue birds. Location is excellent and we had no trouble with finding parking each night when we returned from our day’s activities.

I feel like we really lucked out with the unit we got. We booked through Expedia for the thanksgiving week and got the unit F4. Really nicely decorated by the owners and we had everything we needed. The owners had kept beach chairs, snorkel gear and cooler for our use. We loved being in the hot tub during sunset and hearing the waves crashing from our lanai.

Take me back!!

The room we had was almost like a little 1 bedroom apartment. It was Amazing. So comfortable and had a balcony with a beautiful ocean view. It has A full kitchen in it so We were able to cook our own food and had a little washer/dryer in it which helped a lot. Would definitely stay here again.

Meh

The place is super cute. They decided to change furniture while we were there mid day. Of course we were not in the room at the time. We went from a queen bed to a cal king. Down part about that is the linens Swede not left for the new bed. So at 6pm, the office is closed and we had no linens on this new mattress. We told the office and they basically told us it wasn’t their problem. We revived new linens the next day around 2pm. The tv did not work but we werent too concerned because we did not spend a lot of time in the actual unit itself.

Delay with communication between Expedia and Raintree Vacation Rental. Everything worked out though however site shows checkout at 11am. Management said it changed to 10am. Nice view of ocean from balcony. Fun to watch the surfers. There were four of us with our kids. More comfortable with 3 people but glad for the availability to us. Bedroom is next to elevator and parking and inconsiderate people didn’t mind the quiet hours. Not much sleep. Bedding clean and comfortable. Kitchen fully stocked. Would Stay again if not for the noise. Management kind and available.

The place was great. We had two rooms on opposite sides of the pool and you HAVE to have your key to get in and out of pool area. I hopped the fence a few times. It was very nice and at a fair price. We stayed at the Hyatt on Maui and it was WAY too busy. I have stayed at the Royal Sea Cliff a number of times, but the Kona Reef Resort was a 5 minute walk to restaurants and shopping. Both of our units were ocean front, ground level. I would definitely stay there again.

I like the keyless entry in the condo unit. No worries about misplacing any keys at all. The condo building was huge. We had a little trouble finding our unit when we arrived at night. I wish evening staff are more in tuned to respond more quickly. We had to asked some of the people who were staying there already.

This motel exceeded our expectations. We had a beach view outside our sliding glass door to a balcony, and it was a suite so we had a kitchen, living room, in addition to our bedroom and bathroom making the stay very comfortable. I would stay here again in a minute
