This fairly old Hawai‘i Big Island condo building is right across the street from White Sands Beach Park, which is usually swimmable. Nice pool and grounds. The buildings are adequately maintained. White Sands Village get a few extra points for the beach proximity...
With some units on both sides of Alii Drive at this Hawai‘i Big Island condo property, the oceanfront units can be a good deal.The Kona Bali Kai units are smallish and adequate, but the views are excellent from the large lanais on the oceanfront units which lack...
This is a nice resort with quiet, adequately furnished condos (though some could use updating) amid pleasant grounds. There's a sandy area adjacent to the pool, and the oceanfront saltwater pool mentioned in Sights is next to the grounds, though you have to access...
