We loved our stay and the location of the condo. Loved being able to walk most places and explore the area. Didn’t mind the coin operated laundry but wished there was some place to access change on site. That was really the only aspect I would change.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was nice to be able to walk to so many restaurants and we also appreciated the snorkeling gear and beach chairs available. Although the view of the ocean is limited from the unit itself, the complex offers common areas that allow for a full view - perfect for viewing sunsets!

I broke a vase as I was leaving, so I'm sure it will reflect in my rating... It was an accident. I turned to grab my rolling suitcase and the duffel I was carrying knocked over the vase...
But the peoperty is superb. Ther is an elevator, which is a huge bonus. The AC is finally up and going as of mid September 2023.
All units are close enough to the water to hear the ocean all night. The coqui frogs are stupid annoying though. Not the property's fault. They are invasive.
My unit had an amazinf view of the ocean, and was close enough I could feel the mist from large wave breaks.
The property managers are quick to respond and great communicators.
The unit looks better in person than in pictures. It was huge! And had lots of amenities.
Highly recommend!

The property was adequate, but the view was amazing and close to Town. The condo definitely needs some updates and a deep cleaning. The beds were a little uncomfortable, fan or vent in the bathroom very dirty, the fire detector was ripped off the ceiling, mattress pad hadn’t been washed, drawers in the dresser not on rollers and easily could drop onto the floors, etc. Management friendly and resolved fire detector and mattress pad issue. I actually would stay at the property again, but a different unit.

Just want to say I spoke to one of the owners and emailed property manager regarding our concerns with the unit. I hope they take it seriously and make a change before anyone else rents the unit. The Big Island is a beautiful island with beautiful people, beaches, and food.

Not much communication on what to do with trash or where it should be disposed of! The bathroom was dirty and the parking was difficult to park and leave!

We really enjoyed staying at Hale Kona Kai 209. The condo layout had a natural breeze so it was always cool and comfortable, so we didn’t need the A/C. The location was ideal... a short walk to downtown Kailua Kona and an easy drive to the island’s best attractions. Plus the waterfront location meant unobstructed sunsets from the pool or seawall, and an ocean view from the lanai. The condo had beach chairs and a cooler which we used all the time, and binoculars for whale watching. Laundry machines were down the hall by the stairs, quarters available from the on-site property manager. Love this place!

The location is unbeatable. Right on the ocean and an easy walk to town. The place was clean and check in was super simple.

This property hit all the boxes. Quiet, partial ocean view from patio, ocean wave sounds 100% of time, walking distance to shops. Managers were great at communicating before and after arrival. Staff we ran into at other times were all friendly. All the units have wonderful views. This will be my property of choice for future visits to the Big Island.

The unit was very nicely appointed with everything you need to cook your meals and play at the beach. Short walk to Kona restaurants and shops.

The one bedroom property we stayed in was everything we expected. It was clean, very functional, convenient walk to the bulk of Kona's restaurants, off the beaten path (Alii Drive), and relatively quiet (the ocean waves never sleep, but that is why we wanted this property). We were also able to use float tubes, ice chests, umbrella on ventures to the beaches.
The only negative was we did not have a full view of the ocean to watch the sunset from. However, we never felt too warm as no direct sun ever lit the lanai. We hope to reschedule again soon.

It was a good apartment but there was only one key instead of two that was supposed to be there. Otherwise it was overall a nice view, good location, and clean.

Our stay at this condo was good, it was a good location, it was clean the only thing that we did not like was the chairs on the lanai. I understand why they put those types of chairs out there but they were very uncomfortable to sit in a long period of time.
