Hale Kona Kai 213 - Absolute Oceanfront Condo in Town - Big Wrap Around Lanai

The location was excellent. The sounds of the waves is beyond amazing.

The condo is perfect for a nice vacation to the Big Island. The parking is a bonus to the rental. The view is gorgeous and the condo is well equipped. A nice greeting gift was a pleasant welcoming.

Parking was assigned and easy to find! The kitchen was fully equipped and the location was perfect!

Host is very attentive. Condo well equipped and comfortable. Views are spectacular!

Location to town was a plus. Beautiful view.

The condo in was well furnished, clean, and perfect for two people. The extensive use of mirrors made the living areas feel larger. We loved the wraparound lanai right above the ocean which was very private. Car parking was convenient. The condo is within an easy walk to restaurants.

Clean, excellent maintenance, great location for walking into Kona and avoiding the nutty parking fees. If you like the sound of crashing waves, this is the place.

I'll start with the pros--Obviously the location, you're basically on top of the water which is perfection. Easy walk to restaurants, bars, abc stores etc. The condo was clean upon arrival, well stocked kitchen and bathroom. Cons--listing says central air. There is not central air, it looks like at one point there was, but it's disconnected and they have 2 portable units,1 in the living area and 1 in the bedroom. There was no communication from the prop mgmt about this. The units seem to be new, they do make noise so if you want to turn on the tv at night, between the waves crashing and the ac unit blowing is hard to hear.You can't lock the slider due to this set up and the plug for the microwave is used for the ac. The guy upstairs, he stomps non stop day and night. We come and go all day, some days we'regone all day but no matter what time we get up or come back he's up there literally stomping from one end of his unit to the other. I understand this is a multi floor condo, but it's not only excessive as these units are tiny, it seems purposeful. I'm not sure if he's a full time resident and doesn't like vrbo renters or what but I actually went up on our last night at 915 to ask him to stop stomping. He smiled and said ok, seems like he knows what he's doing and today as we're packing its the same as every day. The bed needs new pillows and the mattress covered washed or replaced. A high top table on the lanai would improve it as you would be able to see over the railin

The condo was quite comfortable. With overhead fans, we had no need for air conditioning.We especially enjoyed breakfasts on the wrap-around lanai.

It was great

We enjoyed our stay in this ocean front condo. The lanai and views are spectacular and that is where we spent most of our time while in the condo. Kitchen was well equipped and my husband appreciated the bag of coffee beans for fresh coffee each morning. The AC worked great for the August humidity and the lanai had great breezes to enjoy daily. We would definitely rent again if we plan another visit to Hawaii.

Wonderful right on the ocean

Tracy and her team at Kona Properties are superb. They always answer emails, phone calls and address/resolve any issues promptly.Unit #213 was outstanding with an amazing view from a large lanai that was almost over the ocean. The condo was very nicely furnished and equipped with just about everything needed for a most pleasant stay....we spent most of our time on the lanai enjoying the spectacular sunsets and listening to the waves crashing against the lava rocks.The condo is within walking distance to shops and restaurants and we will definitely stay here again on future trips.

Put a working TV in bedroom. Bedroom ceiling fan needs maintenance or replacement, needs hand assist to start spinning.

Just perfect! Comfortable bed, deck you won’t want to leave. Terrific location.
