Lovely

Great location, great ocean front property, Kona is a lovely place to stay. We explored the whole island and would stay here again. Near good food, some beaches, and shopping. Grocery nearby. The house is well-stocked and was so nice that they offered equipment to use (boogie boards, chairs, etc). Bed was comfortable. Very much enjoyed. Would stay again.

Absolutely beautiful condo right on the gorgeous lava rock beach. Every morning, my daughter and I explored the tide pools and amazing rock and coral. Perfect location to amazing Kona activities- snorkeling, beaches, grocery. Ocean sounds were a constant soundtrack! Beds and rooms were comfy, kitchen well stocked, great communication with the company managing the rental. The home is so lovingly decorated by the owners.

Great Place

The Lanai was huge with spectacular views. You could see the yellow fish from the balcony in the below. Beautiful sunsets. Warm pool, large Jacuzzi and great location. Could hear the sounds of the waves all night. Close enough to town, but not too close. Great launching pad for all the island amenities. Very clean place with all the amenities needed wonderful hosts. Thank you

An awesome stay on the Big Island

This is a great condo in a great location. A wonderful view with tons of natural light. The lanai is perfect for hanging out on and watching the waves crash on the lava. You feel like you are right on the edge. The condo had everything you would need for a great stay.

Kona fun tastefully done

This condo was beautiful. Plenty of room for 4 of us. Beautifully decorated, clean and onsite staff friendly and helpful. The view from the deck was amazing and the owners provided lots of fun snorkel and boogey boards. The upstairs bathroom leaked through the ceiling to our main bathroom but the company responded quickly and we were not impacted for too long. Would definately recommend! Thank you.

Amazing view, great place

Amazing place! Wrap around lanai with views of the sunset. Bedrooms setup perfectly for privacy and both also had direct access to the balcony. Never needed air conditioning, as the ocean breeze kept the place comfortable at all times. Well equipped kitchen, nice bathrooms, and comfortable beds. No idea if the living room furniture was comfortable since we spent the whole time in the lanai! Easy drive into town.

Perfect for Ironman World Championship!

Beautiful condo, well supplied with everything you need to enjoy Hawaii. Beds super comfy. My only complaint was lack of central air, as the window units were super noisy and not quite effective. Also, if you are like me and one of those people who HAVE to have complete silence to sleep, bring noise cancelling headphones, as the condo is facing the beautiful beach and the waves are pretty loud. But these are all silly issues. I would definitely recommend 5/5 stars.

The Big Island

We loved this unit!!! Location was great (oceanfront). We lived out on the lanai, it was huge and had a ton of places to sit and enjoy the ocean views and sunsets. The unit itself was more than large enough for a family of 5. The interior of the unit was updated and clean. The unit was also well stocked, from beach towels to snorkel gear, to beach chairs, to anything you needed in the kitchen and for the grill. The complex and grounds were well kept. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay on the big island!!

Amazing rental

We loved our time in Kona. The property had everything we needed and extras. Stocked as a home away from home. We went snorkeling off the rocks- and saw the same fish we paid $100+ dollars to see on a tour. Neighbors were friendly, close enough to walk to town (for avid walkers) and views were fantastic. Would love to spend more time here.

My husband, mom in law, and I had an unforgettable stay at Kona Makai. The lanai provided incredible views of the beautiful ocean and cove in which much wildlife was enjoyed (dolphins, seals, turtles, yellow tangs). We have been to Hawaii over 10 times and this condo has easily become our #1 favorite place to stay. We will definitely be back!
