Location

Magic Sands Beach (Laʻaloa Beach Park) is directly across the street and is one of Kona's most popular spots for swimming, snorkeling, and bodyboarding. Downtown Kailua-Kona is just a short drive away, offering oceanfront restaurants, shopping, local markets, and historic sites.

Magic Sands Beach has an ever-changing shoreline; during calm conditions there is soft white sand, but during strong surf the sand may wash away temporarily revealing lava rock—this natural cycle is why it's called “Magic Sands.”

Nice view but falling apart

The view of the beach is great as shown, but it does get pretty noisy during the day and evening. Washer broke and a fix attempt was made but it didn’t work so we had dirty stinky clothes for most of the trip. Lots of roaches which I think is common is Hawaii but not any less disturbing. Would not recommend or rent again.

Great spot across our favorite beach!

This is the second time we stayed in this unit and we love this spot. The furnishings are a bit dated and the primary bedroom tv was sub-par, but with the view, location and other amenities at the condo complex, we easily overlooked those items. Management company was amazing and very responsive to all of our emails and questions.

Great view

Needs some updating but still nice. Management was great to work with on issues with insects. Very responsive to my request. The lanai was huge and spent time watching the whales and great sunsets. The beach park across the road is nice but no sandy beach to enter the water. Not recommended for small children for swimming. You are on the busy road so can get very noisy from traffic and boom music from pos cars. Should put the money spent on boom equipment to their cars. All in all if you like watching whales this is a nice place.

The location of this property is superb. The shower head in the small bathroom barely yielded a trickle of water. This wasn't an issue for us since there was just the two of us. This would have been an issue with a family.

Great location, not the cleanest or updated

Being located across the street from amazing beach with a great view is best thing about this property. This unit was not cleaned thoroughly when we checked in. Prop Mgmt acknowledged my request but never followed thru. This unit is in real need of updating, I’m not sure if stained rusted and worn bathrooms and kitchen can be scrubbed clean to show difference. Mattresses need replacing too. Hard and lumpy. Owners are clearly hands off.

The lanai was A+

We paid extra for this unit compared to our other experiences renting at this condo complex. Having such a large lanai on the 2nd floor overlooking the beach was really the draw but the place does need some work inside to justify that extra cost. Working with the management was easy and they were responsive to our needs.

Some stairs required

While this building does have an elevator it does not reach all levels. This is a challenge with getting suitcases and groceries to and from the unit. Everything else was as advertised. And we got to experience the Magic Sand. It all disappeared one night. The beach scene was totally entertaining.

Great property!

So glad we sprung for this property with a huge, wraparound balcony, facing the ocean on one side! There was a large dining table out on the balcony so we could eat all of our meals while enjoying the sound and view of the ocean. We spent hours out there. The pool at this property was also lovely. The beach is a short 3-5 minute walk across the street. Be advised that in the winter the beach practically disappears. There was very little sand to sit on. But I think that is not the case in the summer. We had a great stay!

Beachfront home away from home

We loved our stay and our hosts stocked this condo with everything you could possibly need. They supplied beach toys, chairs & towels, coolers, pharmacy items, etc, etc. The balcony was huge and well furnished, a great spot for morning coffee and nighttime cocktails. Should we be lucky enough to visit the Big Island in the future we’d be happy to stay here again.

Ocean waves

You can open your slider to hear the ocean waves and families playing in the beach’s across the street. The sunsets are beautiful. It was clean, well supplied and comfortable. Updated towels, and a smart TV would be our only suggestion. It’s up three floors which is fine for active families. Parking is right next to stairs. Very convenient. Quiet neighbors except the temporary construction for a lovely updated beach park. It did not bother us but it elevates the noise level with the bust street. We were rarely home so it was fine. Great location and near everything around Kona.

Amazing unit facing the beach

This was our family's first trip to Kona and we had an amazing time at this complex. First of all, there are very few sandy beaches and we visited about 6 of the other beaches that were within about 1-hour of our unit. The Magic sands beach which this unit looks at was by far our family's favorite. We will absolutely be staying here again we we come back.

Amazing location and great accommodations

White sands condo 201 did not disappoint. The view from the lanai was our favorite spot both morning and evening. Condo was well equipped with everything you needed including beach towels, chairs, cooler, umbrella and other beach items. All the basics to get started of dish soap, dishwasher tablets, paper towels, laundry pods and toilet paper and hand soap were available. There was a hair dryer but it was not listed. Extras for an extended stay were easy to get at the nearby grocery store. We would definitely stay here again. Lots of sunscreen and other kitchen items like tin foil left from other guests…just like we left for the text group. Only thing we found missing was no baking sheet but had plenty of pans and baking dishes to make it work.

The location is great and the condo very spacious. It badly needs ome updates--the 90s era dishwasher broke and we had to wash our dishes by hand at the last minute. But the managers were very patient in helping us navigate the Covid documentation which we appreciated.

Great place at decent price

In good location at ok price. Needs updated dishwasher, bathroom facilities and mattresses (on the hard side). Great view of ocean and very clean. We were very pleased about all the extras which included large ice chest, boogie boards, beach towels, beach chairs, shampoo, soap, sunscreen and bug spray. Magic Sands beach really has no beach (mainly rocks) but Kahalu'u beach is very close and Hapuna beach not far away. Would definitely stay there again.

Awesome balcony view

The condo was exactly as shown. It is a little outdated but it is large, roomy, airy and the view was just gorgeous whether watching a quiet beach in the morning or watch a fabulous sunset every evening. The kitchen was well stocked and the bedroom set up guaranteed privacy. Parking was great with a large dedicated space and the condo had all the beach equipment you would want. The complex was quiet and private. Because the condo is at the front end, nobody walks by and we never heard other vacationers. The location was good as it is right across the street from one of the few nice public beaches in the area. There are also two restaurants right across the street to satisfy formal or informal dining. Downtown shopping area is only 2-3 miles away. The only downside to the location is that it is right above a rather busy and noisy road. If traffic noise and crowd noise bother you, you might want to think about it. When the sliding doors were closed, noise was minimal and it doesn’t start until 10am and is done shortly after dark. We enjoyed the beach noise and people watch from the balcony so this noise did not bother us. We were often gone during the day as well. We would rent again and felt it suited our needs perfectly.

Comfortable, beautiful, and perfect for watching the ocean and listening to the waves!

Beautiful well kept, clean condo with an amazing view of the beach from the entire lanai -- a wonderful place for meals and just relaxing to the sound of the waves. If it's a little too warm out, you can still hear the waves from the living room in the lovely AC. Beach chairs, kick boards, snorkel masks, and an umbrella are provided for use as well as all the supplies needed to clean up on the way out. The only minor draw back (and I do mean minor) is it is a very popular beach so it can get pretty loud during the day and some nights. This wasn't a problem for us but for someone looking for complete peace and quiet that may be a deal breaker. Otherwise it was the most incredible place I've ever stayed and I would absolutely stay here again in the future!!
