Kona Plaza, located right in the heart of Kailua-Kona, is a quiet and private condominium building within walking distance of everything you want to do in Kona. Just across the street, you can go to the beach, the pier, shopping, and to the best restaurants in town. This condo unit (303) is located on the third floor overlooking beautiful Kailua Bay with a direct ocean view.

Totally remodeled in 2018, the condo has one bedroom with a new King sized bed and a very comfortable new queen size foldout couch and a new Murphy/queen bed in the living room (sleeps 2-6 people). Blow up mattresses are also available if the kids/adults want to sleep on the lanai (Our boys love sleeping outdoors on the lanai). The condo has recently been completely renovated and redecorated in a tropical and comfortable island style. It includes a fully equipped kitchen for cooking (new dishwasher) as well as a washer/dryer inside the unit.

Guests of Kona Plaza unit 303 can enjoy the onsite salt water (no chlorine) pool, sun decks, BBQ area (steps away), and secure onsite underground garage parking. Nearby, you will find additional shops, art galleries, beach apparel stores, hair salons, spas, jewelry stores, and great restaurants. Perfect location for tourists or seasoned travelers.

This location is perfect for the World Championship Ironman Triathlon. You can watch the swimming portion of the competition from the lanai or one of the sundecks and the marathon (on Ali'i Dr) from the lanai as well. Spinner Dolphins jump out front for your entertainment almost daily! The huge sound reduction sliding glass doors out to the lanai overlook Ali'i Drive and the ocean and block out any noise. The glass sliding doors are made of soundproof glass and provide a very quiet experience for everyone in the unit. Central building air conditioning is provided, with a new controller for more accurate and comfortable climate control.

    book this place now! Great communication from the host . Everything in the unit was labeled perfectly. Nice view of the Ocean . Was fully equipped with all the beach gear youll need . Different sets and sizes of snorkel gear. Comfortable bed. Only suggestion is if you plan on doing laundry dont wait untill the last minute because the dryer takes a long time to dry due to it being ventless.

    This was a fantastic place to stay in Kona, right in the heart of old Kona village. It had everything we needed, including plenty of swimming gear like snorkels, masks, fins, and towels. The kitchen was well-equipped with various cooking pans and utensils. We enjoyed a lovely view of the street and the ocean below. There’s also a covered garage for parking if needed. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. I will definitely seek out this place for my next trip to Kona!

    The property was exactly as described, close to everything in town, and stocked with everything you could need. The Lanai was wonderful for meals and provides a wonderful view of the ocean. Our host Mary communicated very clearly and was quick to reply when we had questions.We had a wonderful trip and will definitely consider staying here again.

    View from room was amazing. they had everything you could need from kitchen supplies to beach chairs, beach towels, snorkleing gear and more. we had 4 people and we used the murphy bed and the fold out couch. we needed to rearrange the furniture to make it work but it worked. Loved being so close to town and within walking distance to restaurants and bars.

    Mary is a fantastic host. She got in touch right away when we booked to check if we had any questions. Then answered quickly whenever we did. She sent the check-in instructions which were very clear and specific. Check-in was smooth and easy.The condo is fantastic. She has everything you could possibly need during your stay. Seriously. Everything. The AC kept us cool. And having garage parking with elevator access is a huge bonus!The location is perfect. Walking distance to everything in town. And only a 2-hour drive to Volcanoes National Park. The ocean view is great for sunsets.We’ve rented several different condos in Kailua-Kona. All were lovely. But Mary’s was by far the best! We’ll be going back in the future.

    We enjoyed our stay here! The host was great at replying to questions i had before trip. Her directions for check in and out were great. The condo was clean, well stocked ( i personally loved the ice machine!) eating our meals on -large lanai was great with a beautiful view!! We never used pool as we went to beaches instead. The bed in bedroom was comfortable! We were able to walk to restaurants in area and checkout shops! We thought it was a good area. Looking forward to going back again!!

    This was the most organized and well stocked condo we have stayed. My adult son and I travel to the Big Island every year to snorkel and the location and amenties were fantastic. Loved the location and pleased that it was quiet despite the proximity to Ali'i drive. Sleeping arrangements were very comfortable and the best air conditioning set up of any place we have stayed. We bring our own snorkel gear because we like ours but this condo has all the snorkel equipment available for many people. The host is very communicative and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

    Definitely 5* so much is packed into this 637sq.ft. condo that the only thing you might want more of is a little more space. Everything and i mean everything is there for you from the usual supplies to coolers, beach items and even snorkeling equipment to every spice you need to cook and the ziplock bags to store leftovers. The king size bed is super comfy as are the recliners and couch in the living room. No dining room but the patio has a table with 4 very comfortable chairs. Not allowed to have things hanging on the balcony to dry, no problem as a drying rack is there for you out there. We never even needed the washer and dryer. The location was so perfect. We could walk to restaurants and we could get into the free underground parking garage from the back so no need to get stuck in downtown traffic. Mary was so quick to communicate if we needed anything. We travel all over the world and never go back to the same place twice, but if we did, we wouldn't stay anywhere else.

    Can't get a better location in the heart of downtown Kailua-Kona and interactions with the host were timely and thorough. The condo was clean, new appliances, everything worked as it should. The place is loaded.....towels, beach gear, just about anything and everything a couple or family would want. The kitchen is incredible...Everything is stocked and labeled. We absolutely will go back.
