Description
This is a leasehold property and the lease goes to 2079. Kona Islander Inn is located across from the ocean on Alii Drive!! Superior downtown location! The main entrance is on Kuakini Hwy, but the project also fronts Alii Dr with easy access to nearby shopping, restaurants, farmer's market, hotel luaus & entertainment along Alii Dr. The Kailua Post Office, Bowling Alley, Library and the Old Airport beaches are also close. Very convenient to most everything so a car is hardly necessary! This particular unit has been owner occupied and not used as a rental, however the complex does have the coveted "resort-hotel zoning" allowing for Short Term Rentals (STVR), if you want the flexibility to use it that way when you're off island. This is an end unit overlooking the pool, in the "Lanai" building, which is located nearest to the Lobby. It's been tastefully renovated and is easy to maintain. The floors look like wood but are actually tile. One wall is fully mirrored, giving the illusion of more space, and also reflects the natural light and tropical gardens that wrap around your lanai. It has a convenient kitchenette with a good size fridge, microwave and extendable countertop, for a bit more work space. Very clever! The bathroom has mirrored closet doors, a granite vanity countertop and a fully tiled walk-in shower, with nice accent tile and pebble stone floor. You'll enjoy the pleasant feeling of this furnished air conditioned studio condominium and the good use of its space. The coin operated laundry facility is nearby too, so everything is quite conveniently located within the Islander complex, as well as centrally located near all Kona has to offer. Your monthly homeowners dues include: Leasehold fee, electricity, hot water, cable TV, water, sewer, trash service, landscape, pool & spa maintenance, complex insurance, roof and building exteriors, and first come first served parking, so it's pretty much all inclusive. Sorry-no pets per the house rules
