Surf and Serenity

This convenient condo has everything you need to enjoy The Big Island. We saw a dolphin pod 2 mornings from the balcony while eating breakfast. There is a constant sound of surf hitting the rocks below which we found soothing for sleep.

Beautiful view

It was perfect for our week stay, birthday week for my boyfriend!!! It had a great view. The only thing I would say is it had a mildew smell when you first came in, but once the windows were opened and AC was running it wasn’t as bad. The shower was older and the doors did not slide on the track smoothly, but the water pressure and hot water was AMAZING!!! Overall a fantastic stay for the price!!!

The condo we rented was beautifully decorated, the kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need (and it was all very good quality), the furniture was beautiful and comfortable! The property managers Ryan and Angela were both VERY friendly and helpful! We loved our stay there and hated to leave! We will definitely will book there again for our next visit to Kona!!

Fall asleep to the sound of the waves

This condo was a good value for the price. It had all the amenities we might need-even equipment for day trips, beach and snorkeling. The A/C worked well. The view was lovely and I never tired of hearing the ocean waves right below us. It was quiet as it is off the main drag, Alii Dr. but yet easy walking distance to everything. The managers were very receptive to our needs.

Fantastic condo in Kona paradise

We spent 10 nights in 411 and absolutely loved staying there. It had everything we needed for our stay plus a few extra items in the cupboards for our use during the day. Great views from the lanai and it was so nice to hear the sounds of the waves on the rocks. A short stroll to Kona village or the beach and it's on a quiet street so no traffic. We didn't even bother with the air con as the fans & breeze were enough.

It’s all about the location

Let’s start with the good. The location was absolutely amazing. The condo sits approx 40’ above crashing waves. We so enjoyed the view. And we had a two block walk to restaurants and shopping. As for the condo itself, it was just OK. The furniture and rugs are all dated. The bed was actually quite comfortable, but the condo never seemed to be truly clean. Peeling paint on door jambs and heavily stained bathtub didn’t help.

Big Island week

The property was well equipped, especially the kitchen. We turned off the AC and just listened to the waves. It was important to run the dishwasher daily since it got bugs quickly. Management was notified about a stuck screen door on Thursday, 3 days later we called again and was told it was up to the handyman’s schedule when it would be fixed. It was not fixed. Beautiful views and good location.

Relaxing location

This unit was well stocked in the kitchen with everything you need! the views were almost perfect, the sounds of the waves crashing made the visit even more relaxing. Parking was assigned so never looking for a spot to park. Even extra beach chairs, towels and more for your visit. Every night we were walking into town for exercise and or dinner. your close to everything you need. We had a great stay and would highly recommend you stay at # 411

Great Location/Perfect Unit

Hale Kona Kai is a relatively small cozy complex well maintained within a two minute walk from The shops/restaurants of Kona Village. Directly on the water it's views are stunning. Just spent two weeks in the unit which Is well stocked and furnished. There's a convenient elevator which makes this top floor unit accessible even for someone with mobility issues. Already made reservations to return in two months which should say it all!

No one does it better!

I've been going to Hale Kona Kai for years now. Its proximity to town, views of the water and excellent management (Thank you Adeline and Taina!) keep me coming back. Condo 411 is my favorite condo there with its lagoon and sea view, soft crooning of the luaus at Royal Kona next door plus a fully stocked closet of snorkeling gear, beach chairs & whatever goodies guests leave behind. (Not all of the condos do this). I can't wait to be back. Aloha and a hui hou!

Amazing Place!

Words cannot describe how perfect this condo is. The sounds of the ocean along with being able to look over the lagoon made for a very relaxing stay. The condo was very clean with beach chairs in the closet. The bed was very comfortable along with the sofa bed. Easily the most comfortable sofa bed I have ever stayed on. We had a rental car but didn't even end up using it because everything was in walking distance. The beach, restaurants, and shops. The pool was perfect and we had an absolutely amazing time. On the first day, our air conditioner broke, and Adeline worked very hard to get it fixed within 24 hours! She was on it and we felt very taken care of the whole time. We are already looking into our next stay at Hale Kona Kai and possibly buying a condo there because we loved it that much!

HKK411

5 stars is for the location and property. We had a very pleasant time and enjoyed meals on the lanai and afternoons in the pool. If I could rate #411 alone, I'd rate it a bit lower at 4 stars. The bathroom could use an update and there's an unusual smell in the living room, coming from the rug. It's the same chemical smell that's in the hallway so I assume it's the cleaning agent used to clear the indoor/outdoor carpeting as well as the rug. Admittedly, I'm sensitive to chemical smells. Overall, Hale Kona Kai is a great value and great location.

Review of 411

Hale Kona Kai location deserves 5 stars. We've stayed unit 411 for 3 years and it seems to be getting a little “tired” and in need of a face lift; therefore, the above rating of 3 stars. Overall the value for the nightly rate is worthwhile and we would return. I personally am not a fan of the Swifter style mop that the cleaners used on the tile flooring. That particular product is laden with toxic chemicals and leaves a detectable residue making the floors feel slippery and it accumulates on bare feet, especially with such high humidity. Problem solved by wearing slippers indoors.

Lovely spot - comfortable, not super fancy

We stayed here for a week in December - great location in walking distance of the touristy shops and restaurants in Kona- Kailua. Clean and they left cookies for us. Gorgeous view from the lanai - loved spending time there with morning coffee. Parking is tight but assigned spots for the units. Coin laundry is very close by on the same floor and easy to use. Management group was very responsive when we needed more dishwasher soap. Kitchen is decently stocked with what we needed to make some basics. Sofa bed and master bed were comfortable enough -we slept well. A/C was broken while we were there, only reason I knew was looking at reviews before we arrived. However the room A/C unit in the master bedroom and having the doors open kept it comfortable enough at night - we were rarely there during the day. Shower head has crazy intense water pressure. Some peeling around faucets. Some beach equipment - chairs, boogie boards. Plenty of beach towels and linens for our family of three. Plenty of family board games. We went for several runs in the morning on Ali’i Drive. Did not use the pool or the tv so can’t comment on either. Overall was a great place for what we needed - would definitely go back.

Great Kona location, decent unit, annoying management company

Regular Kona visitors, enjoy staying along the coast, just south of restaurant row on Ali'i Drive. Whenever possible, we try to stay in an oceanfront unit, not always an option when booking relatively close in, unwilling to pay a huge premium. First stay in Hale Kona Kai, after several recent stays at Kona Reef. Hale Kona Kai is smaller, quieter (less street noise), with reserved parking. 1 br units at Hale Kona Kai have bigger bedrooms but smaller living space. Unit 411 is clean, well maintained, reasonably equipped but a bit dated, slight moldy smell when windows are closed, A/C is on - which fortunately was rarely required during our stay. Balcony is on the side of the building, so we did not have a sunset view (in December), stairs at the end of the hallway were blocked off with yellow tape, apparently for safety reasons. Only real beef is with the management company. They will spam you constantly to buy insurance, activities and other extras. They have some of the latest check in times ( 4pm), earliest check out times (10 am), will text you prior to arrival to extend both even further. As our flight arrived before noon, we asked if it would be possible to drop our luggage (in the room) prior to 4pm, received a snarky response. We decided to stop by around 2 pm, on-sight crew were very friendly and accommodating.

Location is fantastic!

We enjoyed our 10 days in unit 411. The location is superb, if you love watching dolphins in the bay, listening to the waves on the shore, and enjoying the fantastic Kona sunsets. It's also a short walk to town, restaurants, and shops as well as Honl's beach just south of the building. While the unit could use some upgrading, we found it clean and reasonably well supplied. There were fewer "extras" that are typically items bought and left by previous renters, but I expect that's a result of Covid issues. We were greeted with a welcome gift of chocolate covered mac nuts and a starter pack of detergents, paper products etc. Lots of snorkel and beach gear in the closet, and puzzles & games if you are ever bored (we weren't!). There were a few ants in the unit, but probably fewer than we've had in other condo units in other buildings! While there was air conditioning, we turned it off and enjoyed the ocean breezes. Even at night (in April) we were comfortable. We spent a lot of time on the lanai enjoying our morning coffee or evening beverage along with the ocean and lagoon views - with our binoculars, we could see the fish and honu in the clear water of the Royal Kona's lagoon. We actually found the beach chairs more comfortable than the plastic chairs on the lanai. The building was clean, the pool area was well supplied with loungers and umbrellas, the pool was clean and heated! Parking was easy - although you may have to look twice to find your stall. Check-in was a breeze and we had a follow-up call to make sure everything was in order the morning after we arrived. We'd stay again!
