Absolute OCEANFRONT; Walk to Beach/Kona Town, A/C, Oceanfront Pool, Elevator

Full refund if HI reinstates the traveler quarantine. Right on the ocean, newly renovated upscale condo. Unbelievable views from the lanai, living room, and bedroom of this condo. Close to everything! 1-2 blocks to Honl's beach, farmers market, restaurants, bars, and shops in Kailua Village. Brand new king bed as well as queen sleeper sofa with memory foam mattress for up to 4 guests. Heated, ocean-front salt water pool with outdoor shower and community BBQ. Quiet; no noise from Ali'i Drive. Reserved parking spot. A/C and an elevator.

When comparing to other condos here are some things to consider:

* Is the condo absolutely oceanfront (not just a glimpse of the ocean)?
* Will you get oceanfront views from the living room AND the bedroom?
* Is the pool oceanfront?
* Can you walk to town and the beach?
* Is the condo in a quiet location (Many condos have a living room facing the ocean but the bedroom facing Ali'i Drive and the traffic noise).
* Is there an elevator?
* Does the condo have air conditioning?

Enjoy the best of all worlds with a right-on-the ocean condo that is just a block from Kailua Village and Honl's beach. Hale Kona Kai is a quiet complex where you will not hear the road noise from Ali'i Drive. Our large lanai provides perfect views of local surfers, not to mention seasonal whale and dolphin watching, boats, cruise ships, and more. The condo is bright and sunny, with the ocean views extending into the living room and bedroom. The condo was just completely renovated and updated with comfortable, upscale furnishings and style. Updates include a new walk-in tile shower, a new vanity, stone countertops, new appliances, new wood floors, all new furniture including a brand new king bed with all white linens and comforter, a queen sleeper sofa with a real memory foam mattress, new ceiling fans, new paint, new window coverings, and more.

So treat yourself and relax. We have what you need. This condo lets you leave your car behind as you walk to Honl's beach, to grab a cup of coffee, an ice cold beverage, a meal, live music, a massage, tennis courts, souvenirs and more. There is also a heated saltwater pool equipped with everything you need--lounge chairs, an outdoor shower, a dining area, and a communal BBQ. Don't want to drag groceries and suitcases up stairs? Take the building elevator (not all buildings have one). Feeling hot? Turn on the A/C. We also supply towels, beach towels, snorkeling equipment, boogie boards, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, a lunch cooler, coffee, body wash, lotion and more.

One block from the charming village of Kona and a block from Honl's beach, this is one of the few locations on the Big Island where you can get to everything you need without a car. An oceanfront sidewalk takes you a couple of blocks downtown, or head south for the beach. The complex is right near a bus stop or you can rent bikes, scooters, take a taxi, or of course, an Uber or Lyft.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned condo, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as an outdoor pool or make use of other amenities including barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Amazing everything
My husband and I booked this stay for our babymoon. We've all had disappointing stays that oversell - this isn't one! The view was beautiful, the pool was perfect, spotting fish and sea turtles from the deck. The walk to restaurants, coffee and shops was so close, as was a local beach and surf spot Falling asleep to the waves was a dream. Thank you for sharing your space with us!!

Great condo right on the ocean
We had a great stay. The condo was in the perfect location: directly on the ocean (falling asleep to the crashing of waves...!) and within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants in downtown Kona. It had everything we needed and was super comfortable. (LOVED doing yoga on the balcony every morning.)

Anniversary Get Away
We booked an 11 day stay at Hale Kona Kai #210 and for the most part had a spectacular time. Would have been even better if not for an unfortunate event that required a few days hospital stay. But, as for the property it was/is an absolute gem. Location could not have been better. Literally on the water. The property is located only a short 5-minute walk to a plethora of restaurants and touristy shops, loved the local farmers market too. Distance from the Kona International airport is also ideal and was only a short 15-20 drive. The property complex was/is well kept and pretty much spotless. The complex pool was out of action for one day during our stay as it was being treated for organics, normal maintenance and was definitely not an issue. Our dealing with the Hosts Ineke and Brad was super from the day we booked our stay. They were quick to respond to any and all communications. The only negative I have about the property is that the bathroom is not ADA accessible. This would not have been an issue if it weren't for the injury we sustained and ended up having to use a walker. The bathroom is very small is inaccessible for anyone in a wheelchair or other mobility assistance device. As I said this would not have been an issue if not for the injury we experienced. While our stay was not a perfect as we had hoped. In no way was the condition of this exceptional property to blame. Hale Kona Kai #210 is an awesome property the Ineke and Brad as equally awesome!

Perfect Location
This property couldn't be better located for a stay in Kailua-Kona. Far enough from the town center to be peaceful and quiet yet just a short walk to restaurants, bars and shopping. The unit couldn't possibly be closer to the ocean and is just a short, easy walk to Honl's beach. The unit is clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Although the building is old, it is well maintained and this unit is nicely updated.
