You can not go wrong as this is a SUPERIOR Condo, both in decor and cleanliness. Owners are honest and respond to emails immediately. This Condo definately deserves an A+ rating.
Right on the Ocean, GREAT View!!!!

Well, what else is there to say about D-26 that others already haven't? Nothing...Nothing short of incredible that is!! The location is perfect(close to town and great snorkeling), the condo is AMAZING (Ocean front) and the owners are very thoughtful (Ask Bruce any questions about what to do on the Big Island and he will answer them). In short...a stay here is a MUST!!!!

Great condo in a terrific location. Only a short walk to town for restaurants and supplies. Appreciated all the little extras--coffee filters, salt & pepper, olive oil, beach gear, even some first-aid items. Thank you for the welcome water, coffee and mac nuts as well as the check-up phone call. As we've stayed in other condos that have not lived up to their description, #D-26 was definitely 5 stars.

Alice and Bruce, We loved your condo! It was
wonderful to hear the ocean and feel the ocean
breezes. We walked into town in the mornings and
evenings. There is so much to see on the "Big
Island" that we will be back. Our favorite beach was
Kahaluu. If you are looking to see Sea Turtles, this
is the place to go.
There is everything you need at the condo. You
might want to see what is in the "beach closet"
before you go to the ABC store or Costco. Chances
are, it is in the closet.
Bruce was very kind to come over one night to help
us figure out one appliance.
If you want something close to the ocean and the
town of Kona, this is the place for you. It was for
us. Mahalo, K & K

Thanks Bruce and Alice for providing such a lovely base for our Big Island Adventure. The "extras" were so very much appreciated and the personal touches made us feel welcome and at home. The location of the condo was so convenient we were able to venture by foot back and forth to town so easily it made spectating Ironman so pleasant. We had such a relaxing vacation, other than the little VOG problem which was out of everybody's control, that we can't wait to return and will definitely be looking at staying in D-26. Thanks again for the hospitality and especially that last day. You will never know how much that meant to us.

Bruce & Alice have truly made this a wonderful place to stay. They have thought about everything you might need, for a week, or a month, as an inside person, or outdoor enthuasist! Stayed for 6 nights, this September, would love to visit again. Those reading this, you cannot go wrong here, I will personally verify it! Truly a supurb experience!

Stayed at D26 for 3 nights during my honeymoon
to Maui and The Big Island. D26 was wonderfully
located by Kona, such that we could walk down Alii
Drive to the restaurants and shops. (After so much
driving on Maui, we were happy to walk instead of
drive.) D26 had everything we needed - including
beach chairs, umbrella, even snorkel equipment
(which we happily used!). The condo was clean,
well-kept. Terrific to have free Internet AND cable!
There were even hospitality mac nuts and Kona
coffee waiting for us. Bruce, the owner, even called
us our first morning in Kona to make sure we had
arrived safely.

Just left D-26 after a wonderful week in Kona. The location is ideal, close to town and small beaches. Condo is fantastically equipped. Owners are extremely helpful. Can't wait to retun to Kona ans D-26.

After taking months to look for accomadations in Kona, we came across the Brooks' condo on vrbo's website. Sometimes a person just knows when you have run across the perfect place for your stay and that is how we felt about this place from the start. It was everything that was promised. We loved having the covered parking available for rented Jeep. We always felt safe and even walked the "back" street into Kona. The beach closet in the condo was so completely stocked with anything you could want at the beach. What a great time watching the surfers catching the waves. The grounds were well cared for. The condo itself was well stocked, very clean, not a spot of the dreaded mold that so many complain about in Hawaii. The view..... I have no words for the beauty that we woke up to every morning. As far as working with the Brooks, they were available and e-mailed us regularly before and after our stay to say mahalo. Our favorite local place to eat was Bongo Bens. Our family wants to tell your family that this is a great place to stay!
