Located in Kailua-Kona, Kilokilo Kona at Magic Sands Beach provides accommodation with private pool, free WiFi and free private parking for guests who drive. This recently renovated apartment is located 70 metres from White Sands Beach Park and less than 1 km from Pahoehoe Beach Park. The apartment has a hot tub and a lift.

Spotless and brand new amenities that surpasses many Airbnbs that I’ve stayed at. Host Gary is communicative and thorough with information. Location is right across from a nice beach—in fact, so close that you can just walk over in bathing suit. Wished we could have booked a longer stay there. Will certainly recommend this place to any friends!

Fully-equipped kitchen, with Walmart and Safeway 10 minutes away meant that we could fully cook for ourselves (which we strongly prefer). Magic Sand Beach only 20 minutes walking down Alii Drive! Lots of snorkeling opportunities within easy driving. Lots of interesting hikes in the area.

    The room was incredible, as ours faced out to the ocean. They have a balcony where we could comfortably and relaxingly watch surfers and the vibrant fish swimming right next to the property. They provided snorkels and beach towels. No A/C in the unit, but there was a ceiling fan, and they also provided a pedestal fan. Not having A/C wasn't an issue for us at all, as we slept with the sliding doors (there were screen doors as well) open, and it was awesome getting the ocean breeze and listening the waves at night.

    This apartment is very well appointed with an excellent kitchen, ample appliances and cookware, a very comfortable bed and plenty of beach accessories (however, we didn't use them). When we were there, everyone in the complex respected quiet times and we were never disturbed by other tenants. It was wonderful having a washer/drier in our unit. The lanai is right on the ocean and the view is just what you hope for in Kialua-Kona. When conditions were right, you can watch for the green flash at sunset!

    One of the best beach hotel in Big Island in the heart of Kona. The beach is small but clean and is connected to the hotel, almost unique experience in the USA. There is a 1 mile long beach walk with lot of good restaurants. The excellent submarine trip goes directly from the hotel.

    Extra high ceilings, large balcony, nice ocean view, large bathroom, everything is clean and recently renovated. There was beach gear included, such as an umbrella, chairs, boogie boards, snorkelling gear, cooler. Good central location, but we mostly drove north about 30-40 min for the best beaches.

    Absolutely spectacular location so close to the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean which could be heard at all times. Beautiful condo and we loved sitting on the lanai. The pool area of the Surf and Raquet club was very nice and the whole complex was very peaceful. There was amazing snorkelling at the beach approx 1/2 mile away.

    A great location for a stay in Kona as it was 5 minutes walk to an excellent beach for surfing and snorkeling. Nice bright rooms with fans to cool then. Kitchen had all the equipment for cooking and serving meals. Nice balcony with sea and sunset views. Easy parking on site for our large vehicle.

    It was a very nice and comfortable stay at the Big Island Retreat! We had everything we need in our Seaside room. We really enjoyed the quiet area and that we heard the ocean from the bed! The view when we woke up in the morning was really beautiful! We loved our balcony with the seaview! Parking was good next to the building and there were plenty of spots!

    We liked having a condo where we could do most of the cooking It was in walking distance to a nice Sandy beach & a great restaurant- Magic Bar & Grill. We were also near a good snorkeling beach further south but the best feature was a wrap around lanai with a few views of the ocean & stunning sunsets! The hosts were also very responsive & helpful. We will recommend this to friends & family! 🌴🌴👏🏼👏🏼
