Sunsets, Surf & Snorkeling | Air-Conditioned Island Comfort

A perfect location for snorkelers; you can easily walk to one of the best snorkeling sites on the island. A great pool and hot tub that were never busy and just outside your door. Very comfortable place to stay, and the owners did a great job of outfitting the condo with everything you need, from kitchen tools to beach accessories. Dinner on the balcony amongst the green trees was special too.

Host was very responsive and helpful. Although the property was adequate, it is tired and in need of an overhaul. Kitchen is dark (missing ceiling light fixture), carpet should have been replaced ages ago, cabinets and counter tops are rough with missing tile, 5 remotes for the tv meant we had to call for help. The unit has beach gear (like chairs, umbrellas and boogie board) but some were broken and in need of attention. The spa was always dirty, lots of debris and sand that wasn’t removed by the pool service. We enjoyed our time despite having higher expectations of the property.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, beautiful views and clean, comfortable accommodations. Everything we needed for my family. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub when we were not at the beach. Having access to air conditioning, beach gear, and laundry was a huge benefit. While quiet hours are posted, they were not followed by other residents during the weekend.

Couldn't find a cutting board. A little too dark in the kitchen/livingroom. Pool and hot tub were dirty.Loved the space and location and the art in the apartment was fabulous

The pool was clean and great for a quick dip, especially after a soak in the hot tub. The hot tub temperature was perfect and all the jets in order. The Makolea is far enough away from the chain stores (walmart, costco...) traffic, but close enough to them for a shopping trip whenever something is needed. We would not hesitate to stay here again and hope to do so soon.

The location was perfect for us, and we enjoyed our stay. Communication with the host was very helpful. We loved being so close to Kahalu'u Beach. : )

A lovely place that had everything we needed. The location near the beach was a huge plus. Check-in was smooth and easy. Highly recommend this place

Reviewer Comments: This condo is conveniently located across the road from a wonderful snorkeling spot (Kahalu’u Beach) as well as many great beaches nearby. Groceries and restaurants are also not far from this peaceful spot. The condo was lovely...very clean, comfortable, spacious and well stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo checked all the boxes: GREAT location, just a very short walk to one of the best snorkeling beaches on the Kona Coast, and a short drive down into the main shopping area in Kona. It was clean, safe, well stocked. We were there during the Tsunami Warning and Craig was good at keeping in contact with us through that. Water pressure was good (I've come to appreciate that). Also, kitchen was stocked with plenty of glasses and measuring cups, and all those things that some rental condos don't bother to include. A/C were units in each bedroom and worked well in those rooms (though they were loud -only complaint). I would definitely come back!

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property is clean, somewhat dated but fair for the cost and located near a top beach and in a nice quiet neighborhood. Communication was uneven - initially responsive, then stopped for no apparent reason. The most troubling thing: I was given 2 different door codes, which I tried to clarify a few hours before evening arrival but got no answer and neither code worked. After calling/texting the emergency contact and any email/phone # I had, someone answered the reservation line. Took over an hour to get the correct code, which was very stressful. The property contact offered 1 night credit for giving the wrong door code but then never provided it even after a few emails/texts. Besides that, the place was comfortable and very pleasant and the contact responded to issues during my stay.
