Ourselves and another couple spent 16 days in Kona. We fully enjoyed our time in the Condo. The pool and BBQ facilities were used daily. All the other guests and the Condo personnel were very friendly and informative. We look forward to our next time there.

Our stay in Kona was in March 2008. We had never been to the Big Island. We loved it. The condo worked out great for us. We used the pool everyday and loved going to the beach to see sunsets, volleyball and waves. People in the complex were very friendly. We enjoyed our stay there and the easy access to everything.

We had an absolutely wonderful time. We had planned to do nothing more than lie on the beach for the majority of our vacation and we did just that. The unit was just as we had remembered it and we were very,very comfortable. We sincerely appreciate the opportuity that you gave us to stay there once again. The weather was just about perfect the entire time and it was truly sad that we had to leave when our time was up.

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this wonderful condo. We felt very much at home in the spacious liviing area. All of the extras such as beach towels, boogie boards and laundry facilities were greatly appreciated. We were very close to all of the activities Kona has to offer.We look forward to the next time we can stay at the Magic Sands Village!

Our family travelled to Kona from Washington state to attend the wedding of our son Trevor to his beautiful bride Kasey. The condo was very comfortable - we didn't ahve to use the air conditioning - just kept the fans going the whole time. It was nice to be off the highway so there were no road noises but close enough for a few minute drive into town to eat and shop. It was great having the washer and dryer also. Again, we had a great time and really enjoyed the use of the condo - if we come back we will know where to stay!! THANK YOU!!!

This is a great home away from home! We have stayed at White Sands Village before and this condo was the best! It's quiet, very clean and had great ammenities...especially nice was the beach equipment and coolers. It is in a perfect location for snorkeling, boogie boarding and just relaxing. Jameson's restaurant is across the street and if you ask they will feed the eels that live under their deck. Really cool! The food is pretty good too. We had a great time and wish we could have stayed a month or more.

Location was fantastic and made it easy to satisfy all who were on this vacation. Highly recomend this to anyone traveling on a budget. Great value for your money.

Mom and I went for a bit of walking and picked up some dead coral that looked really nice and found a shoreline access path that lead you to a lava flow beach. Did shopping at Wal-Mart,and Hilo Hattie's after snorkeling at Kahalu'u Beach. Went to the Rogal Kona Resort Luau. The luau was a great presentation of various Polynesian dances. Most of us confused poi with coconut pudding. The Kahlua pork was excellent even though it was all-you-can-eat night, one serving did all of us in. I made an attempt at surfing, took a plane ride to the volcano. A big Mahalo for letting us use this most humble abode. Many more happy, sunny tropical days to you!

With 2 little girls, the pool was the big hit for them. Second would be Pu'uhonua Honaunau, the Place of Refuge because we saw several turtles. A nice, clean,easy to find rental. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Wow! We love the Big Island and this condo was great! Thanks for all your help and prompt emails. I feel like we're old friends. The location of this condo is splendid! Loved the easy access to White Sands Beach and spent the morning and evening in the water swimming laps and snorkeling or watching the sunset while jumping the waves. Loved listening to all the birds, watching the geckos, and gosh, all those lovely plants. What a nice complex! Thanks for helping make our first trip to the Big Island absolutely great.

We've enjoyed our week here in your great condo. Towels and boogie boards and coolers were great to have. We went snorkeling at Kahalu'u Beach at high tide and at low tide. Lots of fish and I'd recommend everyone to try it. Magic Sands across the street is probably the best place (close) to boogie board a really fun beach. We took a plane tour (Big Island Air) around he island and recommend that. We could have spent longer here. Never made it to Hilo or uop to the Northeast part of the island. We'll just have to come back :-) We are also headed to Maui for a week and Honolulu before returning to our farm in North "Central Kansas.

Thank you for the use of your beautiful home. It has everything we need and more! It was so nuce to wake to the sound of birds and drink our coffee on the lanai while the morning unfolded. We spent the first day here going to the volcano-saw an active lava flow and then came back via Hilo so really drove around the island. Yesterday we headed out to the City of Refuge and snorkeled at "two step"-it was incredible! I felt like I was swimming in an aquarium! The water was so clear and we saw tons of different kids of fish-lots of turtles and a moray eel.

Mahalo!! Enjoyed the stay very much, an adventure. This island has everything. We found a beach about 35 miles north of here at Hapuna. Snorkeling is great just south of here about 1-2 miles at the surfing lagoon. For the more rugged individual, South Point is a picturesque place where a 4 X 4 is needed to truly enjoy the location. Thank you and hope to do this again.

I'm her aunt from Humboldt County. My sister and I and our girls spent 9 days here. We loved the area and the condo was great. Whoever cleans it does an awesome job. It was nice to have so many extras to use. Lisa loved the bag of sand toys and the Pooh movie. Lisa is 4.

We had a great time. The little things add up to a lot of homey comforts. Tennis balls and racquets, beach mats, 2 tv's, video and book library and a kitchen stocked with the basics meant a lot. The condo is well ventilated and of so quiet-a real plus. Thanks for letting us use your condo.

Loved, loved your beaufiful and well furnished condo. A week is just not enough. All we did was run around-now we need a week of resting but instead have to return to California. Everything was just wonderful and 228 had everything we would ever need for a very pleasant stay. We plan on coming back with family soon we hope.

Thank you-mahalo for sharing your Big Islnad condo with us. Your condo feels like a home with many extras and personalized touches. We loved the beautiful flowering trees-especially the plumeria below with its lovely tropical aroma. The early morning walks along Alee and the waterfront were wonderful. Try a local style Hawaiian breakfast and local fresh fish.

Aloha, We arrived on the Big Island on the 8th and speant 2 days in Hilo. Very nice there but rainy.When we got here we were pleasantly surprised at how nice your place is. You have everything to go with it. We didn't worry about anything. We were a little apprehensive and didn't know what to expect. At the Hilo house there were no extras. You have thought of everything from coolers to boogie boards to lawn chairs. White Sands is great for boogie boarding. I've done it almost everyday and I feel like a kid again.

What a wonderful place to relax and renew! We have had an incredible week enjoying the many sights of the Big Island. The snorkeling was only ONE of the highlights. We also found volcanoes National Park fascinating. Thank you so much for sharing your comfortable condo with us. We found everything in order and many extras besides.

We were so fortunate to have awesome weather and calm seas. Geat kayaking to Captain Cook Monument. Lots of dolphins. It's hard to be on our way back to the cold weather but we can look forward to coming back again! This is the 4th time on the island and we have a better time each time we're here.

We've had a wonderful time here and do not want to leave. Thanks for making us feel welcome. We'll also tell our friends about this place and hope 228 will be available. (Husband speaking) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay; your excellent taste, all of the provisions, necessities, the movies, the climate, and especially the friendly family of geckos (George, Maude and Georgie.)

"This has been One of the Best Weeks of My Life and it's in no small part due to the location, size and quality of your condo. After long days of volcano exploration, shopping, snorkeling, sailing and beach combing, it was always a relief to come back to condo #228,take a warm shower in your large shower and sleep in a comfy bed. The teens put the videos to good use and I caught up on sports on the other tv."
