Relax into island life at this spacious 2-bed, 2-bath condo at White Sands Village, directly across from Magic Sands Beach. Our building is tucked toward the back of the complex in a quieter, garden-facing setting — about a 10-minute walk to the sand.

Rated 9.8/10 across 84 verified reviews, guests consistently tell us this feels like the most thoughtfully stocked, peaceful home base they've found at WSV.

Why Guests Love This Condo

• Garden views with a fabulous peek-a-boo glimpse of the ocean from the lanai
• Updated interior that feels like a true home base
• Two King bedrooms — ideal for two couples, families, or friends splitting costs
• Beach-ready gear — chairs, umbrellas, coolers, snorkels, fins, boogie boards & more

Steps to Magic Sands Beach
Walk to one of Kona's most iconic beaches — known for its soft sand, turquoise water, and occasional "magic" disappearing sand. Enjoy swimming, boogie boarding, snorkeling, and sunset watching.
Kahaluu Beach, Kona's best snorkeling spot with turtles and tropical fish, is just 1 mile south.

The condo was excellent for our family of 4. The pool was a great addition, a short walk away. Excellent place to meet our extended family members staying in other suites of the condo. The 3 bbq grills were available for cooking meals together while the kids swam. The condo had many options for snorkels, umbrellas, beach towels and boogie boards available. The hosts were accommodating and easy to communicate with. I would recommend this place for family and friends

This condo was more than expected. You fall in love with the comfort of this well taken care of and appointed condo the second you walk in. The location and area are perfect to walk across to the beautiful Magic Sand beach, you forget yo bring something down to the beach, no problem it’s a 1 minute walk back to the condo. The building is well built and very soundproof, we never heard anything from all sides, top to bottom. The owners were great to deal with and quick to respond. We will put this on our favourite list and come back for sure.
