Spectacular Condo 🤿 with a Lanai that Almost Hangs Over The Ocean! 🌊 - Hale Kona Kai 304

True and full oceanfront condo with a lanai (balcony) that almost hangs over the beach. See the ponds below where the turtle and the eels want to come and feed. Let the sounds of the sea make you sleep after a day of sightseeing or relaxation. Both the bedroom and living room face the sea, where dolphins can be seen all year round and whales in season.

Attention: Due to emergency repairs on the 2nd-floor ocean-facing Lanais, we anticipate a pool closure from July 8th, 2024, to July 29th.

Central A/C

King-size bed in the bedroom.
Queens was a sofa bed in the living room.
Tastefully remodeled kitchen and bathroom with shower over bathtub.
Two lanai-high bistros are on the lanai.

Hale Kona Kai is an intimate, absolute oceanfront complex of 39 one-bedroom condos. Located on the outskirts of Kona City, it is off the main road providing calm, ocean-view relaxation from every module. Located just south of Royal Kona Resort, excellent dining at Huggo's or Don Beachcomber's is a two-minute walk away and other restaurants are just a fun stroll away. The white sand of Honl's Beach is less than a quarter-mile south and the Kona Farmer's Market half a mile north.

The complex offers an elevator that provides convenient access for all. On the ocean side, you'll find a heated saltwater swimming pool and a grill on the south end of the complex. There are laundry machines available on each level.

Each unit includes designated parking, safe WIFI, & cable TV. Both units, like Lanais, are non-smoking and Hale Kona Kai is non-smoking.

Just do it!

In real estate it's all about location. You are right above the ocean and crashing waves. So close to main drag in Kona. I would return without hesitation. To top it off got to see Henry Kapono unexpectedly play next door. Mahalo

Could not get a better location and view of the price

The place is clean and the furniture is comfortable. The view is fantastic and you can walk all of Kona from this location with no problem. Given the close location to all the bars and shops it is still a very quiet place where the only noise you will hear is the waves of the ocean. Everything was working when we were there including the AC unit. If you are planning on cooking a lot you may want to bring some spices from home but they have all the pots, pans, plates you would need for cooking. It was a little musty smelling but I think that is a given as it is right on the water. There is a privacy screen front door you can keep open and if you leave the slider open it clears out well. This is what all the neighbors do as well. There is no fan I’m the bathroom so i would recommend bringing some poop-pourei and you can move one of the fans near the bathroom to clear out any lingering smell or dampness from taking a shower. Laundry and trash are on the same level next to the stairs and elevator which is convenient. The pool was very nice and was almost never busy. You will see a lot of wildlife in the lava rocks below and just out front your view. I would definitely stay here again and think this place would be a win for anyone. Thumbs up on this place.

Awesome location!

The crashing sound of the waves! Wow you can't be any closer - just a short walk to downtown to access excellent food, farmer's market, a great walk along the water. Easy access to snorkeling beaches. Nice to have beach towels, chairs. Visiting the pool overlooking the water is refreshing.

no frapes this week

Loved it for the most part. Would have loved having a blender for smoothies and frapes. It was wonderful hearing the waves but couldn;t have the doors/windows open because we had to close them so the air conditioners would have worked.

Great location

Overall happy with condo but smelled musty. A/C system was not working effectively given how humid it was. Carpet into bedroom was wet from humidity or system not working properly. System outdated. Very tired looking bathtub. Aside from the mustiness, didn't mind age of everything as it was clean and great location.

Great location, adequate unit

Condo is RIGHT on the ocean, location is amazing! Interior is tired but adequate — “air conditioning” means two noisy portable units for condo as regular A/C seems to be permanently out of order. Linens, bedding and bed are well-lived in. Nice pool area right on the ocean, and very close by to lots of great restaurant and bar options.

Good facility, nice location, close to services, great staff.

We got the e- regarding air conditioning being out and decided to try it with multiple fans. It was too hot for these Alaskans. The staff was very understanding and worked with us. They gave us 20% off. We checked out early and went to the adjacent hotel for about the same price. The company we booked with was very understanding and refunded our payment. Grateful that I didn't have to fight for the refunded. I will consider them again in the future.

Great spot!

This property really delivered. It is in an awesome location, walkable to several restaurants and bars along the ocean. The interior is definitely outdated, but with waves literally feet outside our window, it was super easy to look right past that. The check in process was a piece of cake, and the unit was well stocked with towels and things we needed. The AC runs well with everything closed up (though again, why pass up the sounds of waves through open windows to put you to sleep?). The pool on site was well maintained and uncrowded and serene/relaxing.

Another Wonderful Month in Kona

We have been coming to Kona for years and staying at the HaleKonaKai. It's our chance to escape the Alaska winters and enjoy the beauty and warmth of Hawaii. Unit 304 is our favorite, with comfortable furnishings and well stocked kitchen The view from our lanai is amazing! The grounds and pool area are immaculate. The staff has always been helpful with any problems that arise All and all a wonderful experience!

Convenient location, fabulous view.

The location is perfect, with all condominiums perched on the ocean. Very convenient to downtown, restaurants, bars, beaches and shops. The condo was clean and comfortable, and well stocked with cookware, utensils, and small appliances.

Best Location in Kona

This condo building has the best location in Kona. You can walk to downtown and all the best restaurants. #304 was right on the waters edge just like the pictures showed. Sunsets were amazing. There is a nice pool with great ocean views. The condo had everything we needed including beach chairs and coolers. It was very quiet from next door neighbors but you can hear people walk in the unit directly above. Tina was very helpful and welcoming. Helps to have someone onsite.

HKK 304

We love Hale Kona Kai and have stayed there several times in various units. Unit 304 is our least favorite of all the ones we have visited. Bathroom is cramped and needs a remodel, the bed was not comfortable and is overdue for a changeout and kitchen was crowded (tiny microwave). I realize there are limitations on what can be done to kitchen and bathroom but other units have successfully upgraded. We still had a great stay!

Outstanding as always!

This was our 7th year renting Hale Kona Kai #304. We absolutely love the condo, the Hale Kona Kai complex, and the outstanding friendly, professional service of Adeline. All the units are literal ocean front, the unit itself modern, up-to date, well stocked, very clean, very quiet, with AC. The Hale Kona Kai is a smaller complex that is always very well cared for, quiet, shared spaces are very clean, and regularly up-dated, including the pool, the carport, and the very convenient laundry on each floor. The location is perfect with easily able to walk into Kona with great restaurants, coffee shops, farmer's market, and shopping. You will love it all and not want to leave the breathtaking sunsets from your lanai, the fish and turtles below, and the sound of the ocean. Paradise!
