Photos and Description of the Kailua Kona vacation condo rental
Condo, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 4)

Spend your vacation in Paradise. White Sands Village is a luxury condominium complex located on famous Alii Drive in Kailua Kona. We are four miles south of Kailua Bay and two miles north of Keahou.

White Sands Village is the perfect home base for your Hawaiian vacation. We are located directly across the street from White Sands (Magic Sands) Beach. It is the premier boogie boarding beach in Kona. Kahalu’u State Park (Snorkel Beach) is a mile down the road. Here, you can view hundreds of species of tropical fish and swim with giant green sea turtles.

If you would like to learn how to surf, there is also great surfing near Kahalu’u. Surfing lessons are available for beginners. For scuba divers, some of the best shore dives are located along Alii Drive near White Sands. Several dive boats are also available to take you out for longer dives. Don’t miss the Manta Ray snorkel/scuba charter. And…if you just want to sit on the beach, catch some rays, read a book, and listen to the surf, you can do that at White Sands too!

If you are a golfer, the Kona Country Club is located two miles down Alii Drive. You can choose from one of two 18-hole courses. One features mountain vistas and the other fronts on the ocean. The views are unbelievable. There is also a full service club house and restaurant. Several other golf courses are within a 40 minute drive of White Sands Village.

The White Sands Village Condominium features a swimming pool, spa, tennis courts, covered cabana with barbecue grills and a picnic area.

Our unit is located on the top floor in the back of the complex, away from the traffic noise. You will enjoy beautiful ocean views from our 27 foot lanai. Watch the cruise ships in the harbor. Sip your wine and watch the sun set over the Pacific. If you are here during the right time of the year, you will even be able to see whales and spinner dolphins.

Our unit features two bedrooms and two full baths. In addition, there is a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living area, and dining room. Master bedroom has a king size bed, second bedroom has two twins making this a perfect venue for one or two couples or small family groups. The unit is tastefully decorated in Hawaiian décor. This 1100 square foot condominium is perfect for vacations and extended stays. There is ample privacy for you and your family or friends.You will feel this is your home away from home.

Amenities include high speed internet, and a large flat screen cable TV. The unit also includes a washer and dryer so all you need to pack is your bathing suit and a pair of shorts. Reserved parking is underground. We are near an elevator so you don’t have to worry about a long walk from your car to the unit. You can stay cool in the central air conditioning or open the windows and enjoy the ocean breeze. You will be comfortable whether you choose to relax in the living room or on the lanai.

Additional activities in and around Kailua-Kona include kayaking, sunset cruises, whale watching, parasailing, deep sea fishing, jet skiing, hiking, theater, movies, shopping, and restaurants.

Longer drives will take you to Kilauea Volcano, Mauna Kea Observatories, Waipio Valley, Akaka and Umauma Waterfalls, Dolphin Qwest, Botanical Gardens, Black and Green Sand Beaches, Waimea and Parker Ranch, Ancient Hawaiian Fishponds, Hawaiian Petroglyphs, Coffee Farms, Captain Cook Monument, and Historic Hilo town.

Wonderful condo. I have been to Kona several times and enjoy staying south of town. Easy drive to town, across from beach where boogie boarding is terrific, very close to snorkel beach.
The condo itself sets back from the other 2 sections which gives gorgeous views and the wonderful sounds of LOTS of birds!! It has been remodeled and they have done a terrific job. There was every "toy" needed to enjoy the ocean as well. I would definite rent this unit again.

Spent a week here in early February, NIce comfortable 2 bedroom condo, well appointed, with good lanai overlooking tennis court. Not ocean front but good ocean view. Very quiet, generally inhabited by the plus 55 crowd like ourselves, a number of them owners, but condo would work well for family as well. White Sands( Magic) beach right across road is interesting beach that appears to be popular with locals, always something going on with some volleyball. Noise from Alii drive is a non-issue which surprised us. If this unit has a downside , it is that it is 10-15 minutes from the heart of Kona on Alii drive, but even that is not a big issue. Overall, this was a nice comfortable place that was good value for the dollar. Especially after coming from Maui

We have always rented through VRBO and had good luck but this unit was by far the best we have had. It was very clean, nicely updated and very well equipped. The kitchen had absolutely anything you could need including spices, sugar, salt, pepper and basics. It was so nice to have beach towels, coolers, beach chairs, boogie board and even snorkelling gear. The location was perfect, right across from the beach although it was quite a drive into town it was not a big deal for us. A lovely large lanai was very private and quiet, very relaxing. This Kona definitely made out stay in Kona a fantastic success!

Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the nice review! We are so very Happy you enjoyed our condo... We have always wanted this to feel like a home away from home for our guests. We feel like the extra amenities make it feel a little less of just a rental, and so we try to keep it equiped just as we would want when we arrive for a stay.
Thank you again, we hope you will return soon!
Aloha,

We enjoyed our stay in Hawaii so much. The condo was great and such a nice, quiet location. We loved walking to the beach! We toured and explored the island every day and it was nice to come back to a relaxing, comfortable place. I have and will continue to recommend it to anyone interested in visiting the big island. Thanks so much!!

We were so lucky to find this perfect little condo for the start to our Hawaii vacation. We checked in on a Friday and stayed until Tuesday. I was so pleased to find all of the amenities (the washer and dryer was a great surprise!) that were left for us. The location was absolutely perfect, just steps to one of the best beaches in the area (we saw a ton of locals using this beach) and a short drive/cab ride to downtown Kona. The assigned parking space was perfect distance to the elevator and stars to the condo. My favorite parts of the condo were the spacious Lanai (with an amazing view of ocean and mountain range) which we used every day and the spacious kitchen. It was also fun to bring out dinner down to the pool and bbq. After our short stay we traveled North and stayed at the Hilton Waikaloa Village, even though that was nice I would have preferred to stay at the condo a few more days, it just made me feel like I was at home! We will definitely be back sooner than later!

I thought I was going nutz trying to find the right place to stay in Kona. There are just so many hundreds of condo listings and different condo locations and different rental agencies, that putting it all together was taxing, even to this data analyst. And then!! Lo and behold, out of the fog, this listing appears before my eyes and it had everything on my check list: Walking distance to beach, hot tub, away from road, 2 bedrooms, nicely decorated, centrally located, nice complex, and good reviews. I knew I'd found it and things just got better from there. Communication with the owners as we arranged the rental were fast, friendly, and gracious. I felt welcomed even before we left home. As another review commented "a non-event". Easy-peasy. The condo exceeded my hopes. The open floor plan, large kitchen and wall of windows/sliders to lanai made us feel like we were connected to the outdoors. Views of palm trees and slivers of the ocean were lovely out the LR-lanai side. Out the bedroom side, the condo looks over park-like open space with views up the mountain. We heard birds birds birds...not cars cars cars. What a peaceful setting! I was here with two teenagers and a 10 yo. There was plenty of room for us all to "be" in this large, open, spacious condo. Condo was very very clean and well-maintained. We loved the way it was decorated (tropical, but not cheesy tropical) which set the perfect ambience. We cooked all our own meals in the well-appointed, well laid out, not-at-all cramped kitchen. We had everything we needed (not often the case in a rental!) Being so close to the beach meant the kids could come and go at will. They also liked the open-air community room (part of the pool area) that had a pool table and lending library. The pool and hot tub were perfect. I think I liked it better than the beach....odd for this nature-loving girl to be saying. But these were the first days of our trip, work had been very stressful, and I was wanting to be away from the busy-busy-hum of people. Pool was quiet, beach was crowded (it was the weekend). Kids were off doing their own thing. I drifted in hot tub, then cooled off in pool, then hot tub, then pool. You get the idea! :D All-in-all, a magical start to our two weeks on the Big Island. I'd stay there again and recommend it highly to anyone looking for a place in Kona-Kailua area. FABULOUS!

Owner's Response: WOW, what a great review! Thank you so much for choosing to stay at our condo! It is our goal to make all that stay feel as if you are at your home away from home! We hope you can come stay again soon!!!

We just came back from a one week stay at this place. The condo is super located, has everything one needs (TV, kitchen, wakeboard, beach chairs and towels), the white sands condo swimming pool is small but good, the SPA is great (my little one loved it) it is perfect for families with small children as there is even a special toddler pool. We loved the flowers that Debbie hat put in the whole condo and we had our breakfast aways on the Lanai which was quiet (despite being on Alii road- which is not obvious) and felt at home 100% thanks a lot for makingthis availableto us ! Oh yes---we'll certainly return.

My Favorite Island - My Favorite Place to stay

5 of 5
Submitted: April 13, 2010 Stayed: March 2010
I choose this Condo for my Dad and I, because i wanted us to have separate rooms since we are definitely on different schedules and it worked out great. The Condo is so gracious, it's bigger then my own home. Every Room is tastefully decorated and has a very welcoming vibe to it, which feels immediately like Vacation. The 2 Bedrooms are on the north west side facing the natural flora and the birds are singing beautifully. I really liked the King Bed in the Master Bedroom i slept in. I always have trouble in foreign beds, but this one had a memory foam topper which was as comfy as my bed at home. This Condo has all you can think off, is very clean and up to date. Spices, Condiments, Coffee, Tea and more - it was so nice to be able to just cook something without having to buy anything but main ingredients. Spectacular Balcony - each day started like a dream, having breakfast outside. Wireless Internet easy to set up and access, very nice huge flat screen tv to watch your pics you took during the day and even a stereo with nice music cd selection. There was nothing we where looking for this lovely place didn't have. We where even able to open a fresh coconut (not in the condo - did that downstairs by the bbq/parking area), without creating a big mess and we are not very experienced.
It is so close to the beautiful Sand Beach, that my Dad could just go down there anytime he wanted to for a swim and then just came back to enjoy more time out on the balcony. Lot's of green sea turtles and other snorkeling at beach as well. Just perfect - would love to return, would suggest that to anyone in a heartbeat. The Owner is very nice and quick to response.

Perfect Winter Vacation Spot - Continuation of Original Message

5 of 5
Submitted: March 23, 2010 Stayed: January 2010
This is a continuation of our customer comments. Please see the first review titled "Perfect Winter Vacation spot" for more on this condo and our overall wonderful experience. This web site doesn't allow enough free space to capture customer comments so I'm continuing my feedback in this customer review space. Below is the remainder of my comments:

Not only was the condo to our liking, its owners were wonderful to work with. The whole “rental experience” was a non-event, which is exactly what you hope for when renting any type of rental property. All in all we had a wonderful time and we’re excited to go back and do it again. In fact, we enjoyed ourselves so much that we’ve already booked another month-long vacation with them for the same time next year. Just thinking about it makes us excited and full of anticipation to go back to “The Island” where we can have more fun and sun adventures! We highly recommend this vacation rental property to anyone who is looking for a relaxing and enjoyable experience. We also want to extend our gratitude and warm regards to the owners, “The Alii Wahines” for their generosity and willingness to help make our Hawaiian vacation a memorial one. We had a wonderful time and we appreciate all of the efforts you did to help make our vacation a great one!! Thank You!
