Great Oceanfront Condos
Kona Magic Sands is about as close to the ocean as you can get. These are studio condos, with a kitchen, bathroom and bedroom/living room. All rooms face directly to the ocean; you will see and definately hear it without obstruction.
We were in room 202, which was absolutely beautiful. It has been recently remodeled, with granite countertop in the kitchen and bathroom, new appliances and furniture. This unit, and those numbered 201-204 and 301-304, have a spacious lanai that adds wonderful living space to the condo. The rest of the units don't have the large lanai. Without hesitation I would recommend unit 202, but I can't speak for the others. I doubt you would find a better deal in Kona, if what you are looking for is a small, oceanfront condo.
Unique Quality: This is a great location. Just know that these are small units. We were very comfortable as a couple, but more than two people would be crowded.
