An average condo/hotel with awesome views
There are pros and cons to this condo. The pros: ocean front facing, nice pool area with barbecue grills that are very clean, beach towels provided, 1 mile to Kona downtown, plenty of parking, 2 bathrooms, laundry detergent provided. The cons: The bathrooms in our particular condo are in great need of a remodel, no salt/pepper in kitchen, knives were terribly dull w no sharpener available, only 1 lamp in living room. The condo was fine for our stay, but I can't give it 4 or 5 stars for amount we spent as we've stayed in much nicer for that price.

The hotel is not a 4 star resort. It is old and in need of an upgrade badly. All the furniture, carpet, bedding, etc are old. It is a convenient location to beaches and places to eat. The staff is wonderful and friendly. But the accommodations is far less than what I expected for a 4 star rating.

NOT A SWIMMABLE OCEANFRONT PROPERTY. Pros: Staff was always friendly and helpful Very quiet property and full time residents were nice Ample parking with covered parking Once a week cleaning staff did great job cleaning. Cons: (we stayed in room 409) -Not a swimmable oceanfront so we could not snorkel from our condo. -Room dated and worn, paint peeling or cracked in multiple areas. Obvious patches and paint that did not match well. -Shower heads mounted low as I'm 5'10" and shower head would only spray my chest so hand to bend way over to wash hair. -Master shower sliding door been caulked multiple times showing evidence of mold as bottom inside track caulked in. -Hall bathroom fan did not work -DVD player had issues and would randomly open and close when TV and everything was powered off.

Loved the beautiful view of the ocean from our lanai and the beach/pool area. The condo (406) was spacious, clean, everything we needed in the full kitchen and had amazing views. The staff instilled the Aloha spirit and were very friendly and helpful. It’s only a few minutes drive to dining/shops along Ali’i Drive. We can’t wait to stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay at the Aston Kona By The Sea! Nearly all of the rooms have beautiful balconies with amazing views of the water. We had a spacious unit with a full size refrigerator and freezer, and with air conditioning. We texted management about something that needed their housekeeping attention, and they tried to make it right immediately. Since we were on our way out, though, they refunded us the housekeeping fee for the slight inconvenience, which I was impressed with. The location is a short drive from the busy Kailua-Kona area where there are more dining options and activities, but they have plenty of parking at the Aston. We chose to use Uber instead of renting a car, which also worked out fine. There is a nice marketplace within walking distance (Ali'i Gardens Marketplace), and the taco food truck was legit! Would definitely go back to this resort again!

I was not aware but each of the units at the hotel are individually owned. So some have updated furniture and some dont. Overall i gave it a 4 star due to the room conditions. The view from the hotel is a 5 star. U cannot get any closer to the waves then this hotel. We enjoyed sitting in our balcony and enjoying the view and the souds of the waves hitting the rock. Also due to the direction of the hotel sunset is not in not in direct view . But u can go to the joining property and get an amazing view of the sunset.
