Feast your palate with this ocean front condo in the heart of Kailua Kona's "surf city". Spectacular early morning + evening sunsets awaits.
HAWAII AT ITS BEST! From the privacy of the extra long lanai (exclusive to 3 units), you will enjoy the perfect vantage point for watching whales seasonally, spinning dolphins, turtles, surfers, sailboats, and listen to the crashing waves. The small Banyan Tree condo complex is located midway between Kailua Kona and Keauhou. The Banyan Tree is a small, well-kept complex with only 20 units so it never feels crowded. The property is located as close as you can get to the Pacific Ocean. In fact new construction is no longer allowed to be as close to the ocean as Banyan Tree. The heated, ocean front pool has mesmerizing views and plenty of comfortable lounge chairs. Barbecue grills and a hot tub are also poolside. A spacious veranda next to the unit offers amazing views and larger tables for entertaining. Directly next door is a small, sandy beach which is a perfect entry for surfing, boogie boarding and paddle boarding.

Banyan Tree is centrally located on the sunny side of the Big Island in Kailua-Kona. Top rated restaurants like the Poke Shack and local farmers markets are minutes away. Downtown Kona, with galleries and shops is less than three miles. Alii drive, which is great for ocean walks, is right out the back door. Ready for the beach? Magic Sands Beach is less than a mile away. Kahalu'u Beach is only two miles and has easy snorkeling where you can get up-close to beautiful reefs and abundant sea life. It's also a perfect place to learn to surf. Postcard perfect beaches such as Hapuna Beach and Kua Bay are to the north and Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park and Captain Cooks monument lie to the south. Since Banyan Tree is located about halfway up the coast you can drive to either end of the island in about 30 minutes. When you're done just park in your designated parking stall and take the elevator steps away to your retreat!
This is an ocean lover's dream, we hope you visit soon!

Remodeled kitchen, Full size washer/dryer, Free Wifi, beach chairs/boogie boards.

Lovely stay in Kona waking up to surfers and dolphins

We had a wonderful stay at this oceanfront condo. I really appreciated that the kitchen had some basic cooking essentials like salt/pepper, oil, etc. and that we were able to borrow snorkeling gear and a couple of beach chairs when visiting the beach. The description of the condo is accurate. The condo is clean and has a perfect view to watch the sunset. Communication with Dawn was easy, as was the check-in and check-out process. I would happily stay here the next time we visit the Big Island. Mahalo!

Whales, surfers, incredible sunsets and the beautiful roar of of the ocean.

We loved our two-month stay at Dawn and Ian's Banyon Tree condo. Dawn and Ian were perfect hosts and responsive to all of our needs, including Dawn taking our young guest, who stayed for a week, out for two runs and lunch!! The unit was nicely decorated and generously stocked with all the necessities and more. We slept really well on the comfortable bed, listening to the beautiful sounds of the ocean as it lulled us to sleep. We hope to return and stay there again.

Slice of Paradise!

My husband, mom and I had a fantastic vacation! This condo is perfect with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The location is great. Not far from the farmer's market and our favorite food truck, Shaka Tacos. (Mm mm, the mango hot sauce!) My mom could have spent the entire time on the lanai watching the surfers. So fascinating to be able to see the yellow tang in the waves right from the deck! A humpback put on a commercial worthy show one morning as well. Communication was easy and clear. The condo had everything we could need and having a washing machine and dryer was a bonus! The place was clean and very comfortable. We kept cool with just the ceiling fans and enjoyed listening to the waves at night. So close to the ocean. Thank you for sharing your place with us. We hope to return soon!

Refreshing place

We could not get the AC to work properly. When turned on, we started smelling sewer smell. Therefore, we did not use it. The fans were sufficient to keep us cool enough as long as the doors were open. The lights also flickered a few times, concerning us with safety of wiring. There was also mold on the smaller bathroom on the shower curtain. WE LOVED THE ATMOSPHERE, THE OCEAN, THE LANAI, IT WAS VERY CLEAN, FURNITURE AND BEDS WERE VERY COMFORTABLE. I WOULD STAY THERE AGAIN.

Loved this condo! It had everything we needed for the perfect family vacation. It had all the things you would need for a fun beach day. Kitchen is stocked well for a home cooked meal. Spent a lot of time on the patio looking at the amazing views. Beautiful sunsets and watching surfers! We chased waterfalls, hiked to green sands beach, hiked at the volcano and stopped by black sand beach.Thankful for how quiet this property was especially after an active day. This vacation was good for the soul.
