About this property

Incredible Ocean view from Updated Top Floor Condo!

The Kona Makai is an Ocean Front Complex located on famous Ali'i Drive just 1 mile south of the edge of historic Kona Village. Kona Makai has immaculately maintained Hawaiian native plants. Enjoy the wonderful ocean-front seating area with loungers, feel the ocean spray, and listen to the rolling waves. Watch the spinner dolphins traveling by most mornings and back again in the late afternoon. We've also seen whales and monk seals! Enjoy amazing sunsets and good conversation with your fellow travelers. The heated salt water pool and relaxing spa are steps from the ocean, along with gas grills and eating areas for dinner. This a quiet complex with tennis courts, exercise rooms, and ping-pong.

This is a 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom Unit, with a loft and soaring open-beam ceilings. It is on the 3rd floor without an elevator. This spacious condo has been recently updated with stone counter tops, new kitchen cabinets, tile floors, both bathrooms redone, and new bedroom furniture in both bedrooms, and new mattresses on all beds. There is a dining set for six inside, along with a dining table and chairs on the lanai. There are TV’s in both bedrooms and the living room. The living room and master bedroom both feature 65" 4K smart TVs, with a 55" in the 2nd bedroom. Incredible ocean views from the lanai with access from the living room and the primary bedroom. There is a King Bed in the primary bedroom, which also has an ensuite bathroom, a Queen Bed in the second bedroom, a King Bed in the loft, and a queen-size cabinet bed located in the living room. It is fully equipped with a washer, dryer, towels, linens, dishes, and shopping bags for purchasing your groceries etc. Everything you need for a day at the beach is included: chairs, beach towels, a cooler, an umbrella, beach toys, and plastic dishes for use at the pool and beach.
This condo feels like home.

We have family that own the ground floor condo directly below us. If you are coming with a group and need another unit, please contact us to send you the information on that unit, so you can determine if the rental of both units are available for your stay.

Great Place, Great Stay Again

We returned to this property based on the value, location, and space for the family. Kitchen was super functional. Lanai was fantastic to sit on in the mornings. The owners response time on minor issue was amazing. I told them it could wait till after we checked out, she got it taken care of immediately. We will be rebooking soon!!!

Amazing stay

My family of 6 (4 to 74) had a wonderful 2 week stay at this property. Great views, great amenities, very responsive and helpful hosts, great location (close to beaches, restaurants, shopping, groceries). Place had everything one would expect of their own property - EXTREMELY well stocked with pool/ beach/ games/stationery/books/guides and brochures/utensils everything. Even had wet bag to hold phone wallet in water. We were very sad to leave and would 100% stay here again.

Beautiful Condo with Excellent View

We have stayed at a few different condos in Hawaii and this our favorite. The condo itself was updated, well stocked with supplies, and comfortably fit seven of us (3 of which were kids). The view from the 3rd floor lanai was something we enjoyed every night. The location was perfect too. Close to the shops and restaurants in Kona so it was a quick drive or sometimes we walked there (about a mile).

Amazing!

There were 6 adults and 2 children staying in this condo. It was so wonderfully neat and tidy (we especially appreciated this after the condo we stayed in in Maui days before). This condo had everything you needed for your stay, right down to some kids toys which my two girls were extremely happy about. Check in process was easy because clear instructions were sent. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai watching the ocean and the sunset. Even saw some whales! 100% recommend this condo. Location was also great!

Loved the location! Nice to have a pool and hot tub to relax in at the end of the day. It’s right on the beach but it’s all lava rock. Still beautiful! Tap water tasted funny. Plan to buy water.

Good choice

Beautiful grounds. Loved watching sunset as the water crashed against the rocks each night. Good location for traversing west side. Appreciated owners recs for food and beaches. Unit itself a bit dated and upstairs warm as people have said. Cooked in and ate on the lanai pretty often. Picked it because it has three separate bedrooms which was nice for our family.

Great Condo - Would Stay Again

Chad and Laurie were really helpful in providing detailed information about island beaches and favorite restaurants. They responded very quickly to my questions and were wonderful hosts. Instructions for arrival and departure were clear. The condo is in a great location for day-trips to Volcanoes National Park and to Hilo for the waterfalls and very close to Kona for restaurants and shops. Lots of beautiful beaches to choose from and great snorkeling nearby. A++ for location! The condo has a stunning view of the ocean splashing against the lava rocks below. A great grilling area, pool, hot tub, ping pong table and even a little lending library near the bar. The landscaping is beautiful and the area was very peaceful and quiet. The condo itself had very comfortable beds and all the amenities we needed, including beach towels, a cooler, pool noodles, boogie boards, beach umbrellas and some snorkle gear (and more). The kitchen was well kitted out, which was great because we ate in a lot and could just venture down the stairs for an amazing sunset after dinner. There are air conditioning units, but we mostly just left the doors open at night to catch the breeze and listen to the ocean waves. I think the loft space was a little warm because of that, but my son said he slept fine. Truly a a dream vacation - we would love to return some day! Would definitely stay here again if we had the chance! Thank you!

Home Away From Home!

Laurie and Chad communicated with us prior to our trip. They answered any questions we had right away. They gave great instructions from getting the key to where to park to unload the van. There was a book with detailed instructions/information on the table when you walk in. Definitely, read through it when you arrive, it has all the rules. Our family stayed five days on the Big Island before heading to Maui (we missed this condo at our new location). The condo was very well equipped with everything you may have needed. Especially, when you are coming from the mainland and unable to bring them. There were plenty of beach towels, chairs, and many other items to enjoy the beach. The condo was clean and nicely decorated. The grounds were well maintained and gorgeous. We saw whales and dolphins from the Lanai. We knew from reading other comments the air conditioning was loud. However, we weren’t prepared for how loud but that’s the only complaint. I would definitely recommend this condo to everyone. Also, it’s in a great location. Close to shops, restaurants and grocery stores. Mahalo, Laurie and Chad!!!

Beautiful condo on the ocean

We really enjoyed our stay! Everything was as described & clean. We travelled with our 3 children & my parents & there was enough room for everyone & we didn’t feel like we were squished. Loved being able to use the community grill for suppers! Enjoyed sitting in the deck chairs watching for whales & just relaxing & watching sunsets.

We have three children who are now almost all young adults. Kona Makai has been a favorite vacation place for them and we are happy we can now make many more memories here as a family!

Why they chose this property

We have family that also own at Kona Makai and have fallen in love with the beautifully maintained grounds and the town of Kona. Of all the Hawaiian Islands, the Big Island is our favorite!

What makes this property unique

If you have a large group of more than 8, we have family who own the ground floor unit directly below ours that sleeps 6. Contact us to see if we can coordinate the rental of both units.
