It is well known for it's beautiful grounds with immaculately maintained Hawaiian native plants. You can enjoy ocean front seating with loungers, feel the ocean spray on your face, and listen to the rolling waves. Most mornings spinner dolphins travel by right out front sometime around 7:30am and then travel back again in the late afternoon. This same area will provide amazing sunsets where you can enjoy a nice glass of wine, BBQ, dine and have some good conversation with your fellow travelers. The large heated salt water pool has a maximum depth of 8 feet and the relaxing spa are both steps from the ocean. This a quiet complex with tennis courts, heated salt water pool, spa, exercise rooms, and ping pong. It is best suited for couples and families with older children (14 and older).

The loft has a new memory foam queen size bed . The unit is fully equipped with Bosch washer/dryer, towels, linens, dishes, and shopping bags for purchasing your groceries etc. And everything you need for a day at the beach is included: chairs, beach/pool lounge pads, beach towels, a cooler, an umbrella, snorkeling noodles, and plastic dishes for the pool/beach.

Very comfortable stay in Kona! Clean and spacious. The King bed was so comfy. Ample kitchen and a beautiful view from the lanai. Close to restaurants. The salt water pool was refreshing. The view of the ocean and sunsets were wonderful from our lanai. Hoping to return one day.

We always love stay at the Kona Makai complex and this unit did not disappoint! Very clean with all amenities needed for a lovely stay! Great communication with owners. Perfect location for getting around the island. Listening to the waves crash onto the shore at night was an added bonus!

Outstanding condo and setting

The location of the unit is right in the middle of the complex. I provides easy access to the pool area and ocean front. I here are lounge chairs literally steps away from the surf - so close you can be splashed on while relaxing watching the sunset. The unit itself ie exceptionally clean. Everything looks literally brand new! It’s well furnished with kitchen supplies and comfortable to enjoy inside and out. Robert is a highly responsive and gracious host. We’d certainly stay again!

Everything needed plus

Super-stocked condo, nice grounds, beach equipment, easy access/parking, walking distance to heart of town, slept to sounds of crashing surf! Very nice pool, roomy sunbathing areas poolside and oceanside. Grandkids 2 resorts north visited to play and have dinner 2 afternoons and were gone by "quiet hours". Perfect.

Cannot WAIT to go back

Rob & Darlene were amazing hosts who provided my friend and I with the perfect oasis to escape from work and rest. The location is right by downtown Kona, but just enough away to be quiet, with amazing views, especially by the pool area. Cannot say enough good things about this place and we hope to return!
