We would love to come back soon!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this fabulous condo! It was very clean, spacious, comfortable, peaceful and quiet. Thomas and Gail are excellent hosts! They were so responsive to questions and provided me with useful and valuable information about the area.
After full days at the nearby beaches and exploring the Island, we would catch the beautiful sunsets and enjoy dinner at the Ocean Club most evenings. The food was excellent and there was live music.
We would love to stay here again on our next visit to the Big Island.

This was our second time staying in this condo. It’s beautifully decorated, well stocked, and clean. The owners/hosts have gone out of their way to make sure their guests have everything they need while on vacation. The kitchen had every item we needed to stay in and make our own meals. There was a closet full of beach chairs, snorkel gear, pool floats, beach towels, and ice chests which came in handy on the days we went to the beach. The Ocean Club and resort style pool were our favorite place to watch the whales & the beautiful sunsets. All of the beds are comfortable. The bathrooms are big. It’s a quiet community. You will feel right at home. I would definitely recommend staying here. It will exceed your expectations.

Halii Kai 22A is fantastic, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to a future visit. The unit hits on every level for comfort, amenities, location, excellent user notes and directions for guests (the light switches and remotes. are all labeled). Strongly recommend this unit if you’re looking for a beautiful, we’ll-kept worry-free condo during a Hawaii visit.

My friends and I just returned from a weeks stay at Halii Kai, condo 22A. It’s in a great location, close to all activities in Waikoloa. The grounds are beautiful. The condo is spacious and well maintained. It was very peaceful and quiet. Our hosts were easy to communicate with. The sunset views from the pool area are awesome.

Lovely unit for 2 couples. Kitchen had everything needed. Towels were plush and bedding was comfortable… slept very well! Well stocked with beach chairs, towels etc for guests. Property was well maintained. The balcony overlooks a beautiful courtyard! ( with a turkey who calls it home).
The pool and restaurant area were so very beautiful. Loved sitting amongst the gardens and especially loved that the views of the ocean were spectacular. The food at the restaurant were some of the best we had. Overall it was a trip we will always remember. Mahogany

Because of weather had to cancel a Christmas stay with family on the island, so brought friends and enjoyed it in Sept.
Wonderful place to stay. Plan to do it again in the same condo.

Very well kept and updated property with all amenities described. Comfortable beds; nice linens and there wasn’t one thing that we needed that this property didn’t have. Excellent area close to shops, beaches, and restaurants with local fare. Sunsets from the Beach Club poolside are stunning. There is no way to describe the views that will do it justice. Will definitely book again without hesitation. Heaven on earth! There was no need to contact anyone during our stay, however prior to check in and when we texted to let them know we were sadly leaving…they responded almost immediately. Thanks Tom & Gail. Now back to reality!!

My husband and I went for our 10yr anniversary, wanting a quiet place but with enough to do to keep us busy. This place was perfect. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. We loved walking down to the pool and fitness center, which had beautiful views of the ocean. The staff were all friendly. We had a wonderful vacation and are already planning to come back with our kids.

This was our first visit to HI. We wanted something really nice that made the event feel special. 22D absolutely met those expectations. The unit is very clean and cozy. Wish we could have stayed longer. I would suggest a chaise lounger on the deck…or chairs that recline. We sat out back a lot, and wished we could recline at times. We will definitely plan to stay here again on our next visit.

Excellent accommodations that were better than described. Roomy condo, great lanai views in a quiet gated community. Amazing sunsets from the pool area. Host were friendly, accommodating and responsive. We had an incredible trip to the big island.

We loved 22A! The balcony has a great view of the grounds and the beds were comfortable. It was VERY clean and well kept. The pool area was super nice and the staff was very helpful. The only thing I would recommend is if you are staying in the guest bedroom to make sure the blinds are shut during the day. My kids got a bit hot in there even with the AC on. Mahalo for your hospitality!

The condo was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed breakfast on the balcony every morning. This breeze was lovely. Plenty of beach items. The private pool is great. Highly recommend a cocktail and sunset. Location is great. Our kids enjoyed having their own queen beds. Owner communication is excellent. Highly recommend this property.

Very spacious and nicely furnished property that provided the perfect respite for our family. There are two big bedrooms, high-end kitchen and master bath, and a veranda overlooking the grounds where we ate most of our meals. The perfect spot to explore the beaches and snorkeling on the north side!

In short, this is exactly what we wanted:safe, comfortable and well stocked. Beds were very comfortable, plenty of beach items for use and perfect for what we needed. Nice gym with peloton bikes, peaceful pool and comfortable space. The lanai faces a green space and other condos which allows for noise to carry and was a bit disrupting to the otherwise peaceful time but was a minor annoyance among an otherwise lovely stay.

Fantastic stay on the big island. The condo was exactly as described, but even better! Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen (maybe add a measuring cup), lots of beach gear for our use, plenty of space, and gorgeous garden view from the lanai. Spent quite a bit of time at the Ocean Club enjoying the pool, drinks from the bar, delicious and reasonably priced food at the grill, and unforgettable sunsets. Would love to stay here again! Mahalo!

My husband & I absolutely loved staying at this 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo on the Big Island. The kitchen was well stocked & had every utensil we needed to make dinner at home every night. There was a closet full of beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, beach mats, and a cooler. The resort, Hali i Kai, is beautiful. The pool & Ocean Club restaurant & bar were our favorite place to watch the sunset. We’ve stayed at many different places in Waikoloa Village, and this was by far our favorite place. Very clean, nicely decorated, Tom & Gail were fantastic hosts & easily accessible. We will definitely be back next January, and would love to stay here again!

My stay at Hali Kai was very nice. The unit was very nice. The bed was comfy! It was nice to have such a beautiful amenities center plus there is a restaurant there as well. I ended just being there alone as my husband became Ill before our trip. So I felt very safe there staying alone. Thanks for sharing you lovely place. Louise

Unit 22 in Hali’i Kai is fantastic! We spent 13 beautiful days there and hope to return next year. The unit is equipped with everything you need including a rice cooker and slow cooker! We stayed with another couple and there was plenty of room for the 4 of us. The on-site restaurant serves delicious food with an amazing view. We highly recommend this rental - just leave some time for us!

This condo is in a very nice complex and is well appointed with everything needed to make it comfortable. The master bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in in a rental! It is convenient to the road, but rather far from the pool/restaurant for us Seniors to walk. Overall an A rating.
Alessia B.
October 2022
The Hali i Kai community is very quiet. It is located close by the best beaches in big island. In the evening was really quiet and the beach club was really nice to take some sun and rest in the jacuzzi. Thomas and Gail were really nice and answer to me all my questions. If I will go to Hawaii again, for sure I would like to repeate the experience.

This rental had everything! So clean and modern in a gated community in a great location. The moment we drove up to the gates we were like “wow!” And then again when we opened the door! Less than 5 minutes from A-bay with a beach that has everything-gear you can rent and trips you can book. Fully stocked kitchen with everything you could possibly need. Completely stocked with beach items-coolers, towels, chairs, toys, etc. Laundry inside your unit. A huge corner balcony with view of the grounds-perfect for morning coffee with the birds and evening drinks. Very quiet and relaxing. Ocean club with pool, food, bar, gym and the most amazing sunsets ocean side. And the layout was great-2 very private bedrooms-one in front and one in back. We will definitely stay here anytime we come to the Big island!

Our family of 4 had an amazing time at 22A in Hali'i Kai. The community is conveniently located 5 min away from Queens and Kings market with many shops and restaurants, beach access, community has a pool and a restaurant with amazing sunset views. The condo is more beautiful than the photos, a lot of space, useful kitchen and laundry, large dining room table, clean and nicely decorated. Easy check in and check out, overall a great experience and would definitely come back!

We loved the property and the space available for a larger group. The owner was in great communication and easy to reach. We had an issue with a television and the owner attempted to fix it and when he could not went out and purchased a new one and installed it while we were exploring.

This was an awesome property in a great location (both within the property grounds as well as in the Waikoloa area of Hawaii). It easily accommodated 2 adults and 3 teenagers. There was a full kitchen (and icemaker) as well as an outdoor bbq just a few feet from the building. the host provided nice sheets and towels and even beach gear like chairs and boogieboards and ice-chests. We also had access to the property "Beach Club" with a great pool and view of the sunsets. The hosts were VERY reachable and gave us good advice on local attractions and vendors.
We absolutely loved our stay and want to return to this property the next time we come to Hawaii.
Thank you Thank you Thank you

We had a wonderful time with our kids while staying at this property. The unit is upstairs, so it is not for people with mobility issues. It was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. We appreciated having a separate bedroom and bathroom to ourselves. Our kids are teenagers, so they also liked having their privacy as well. There was beach equipment for use and the kitchen was stocked with utensils, making it very easy for us. The Ocean Club was a nice spot to enjoy sunsets and get a bite or drinks. We loved this location and can't wait to come back again.

We had an amazing time while visiting the Big Island. 22A far exceeded our expectations! It was very clean, comfortable, and we very much appreciated the closet full of coolers, boogie boards, pool toys etc. the view of the Grove from the Lanai was a nice way to start each day watching the sunrise with coffee in hand. Checking in and out was easy, and we would definitely stay there with our two kids again. Thank you for hosting us and aiding in making our trip so special!!

My Husband & I had an amazing stay! The owners are super responsive if there are any concerns. Condo was very clean, kitchen well appointed and the washer/dryer was an additional bonus.
We explored the whole island and recommend Volcano National Park, the Japanese gardens in Hilo and we found a local chocolate farm Honoka’a Chocolate Company. We discovered them at the Waimea farmers market
We will definitely be back in the future

We are very happy with our stay at Hali'i Kai. The condo was very nice and with good space and large rooms. Well equipped and included also stuff to use on the beaches. The area was beautyful and clean. The Ocean club had a small gym area, poolbar/restaurant and pool with sunbeds. The food was very good, the drinks too.. You could always find an available sunbed. The pool was not very deep, but very nice to cool down.

We had a wonderful stay. I hesitate to get too effusive or it will never be available again. Well stocked home for self catering. Good cooking equipment. Grounds are beautifully laid out for privacy and the right amount of shade after a hot beach day. Beds super comfy and like the two different bedroom arrangements for privacy etc. Huge beautiful pool and bar setting. Could use a few more staff at night, but that’s to be found everywhere these days. Thank you for your hospitality!

We loved our stay here! Went on beach adventures everyday and loved coming back to the beautiful pool and sunset every evening. We saw whales in the ocean right from the pool our first evening. We hope to stay here again…really can’t imagine a better place to spend a vacation.

The fabrics and art in this condo are just beautiful. It looks like interior designers had their way with an unlimited budget. Sitting on the lanai for breakfast with all the birds singing is an ideal Hawaii dream come to life. We stayed here with our two Millenials and their SOs, who were happy to share a bedroom with two beds like a hotel room and not need to sleep on a sofa bed. It’s hard to find a place for six people. We found the kitchen well-stocked (air fryer!) and easy for many people to use. The washer and dryer were heavy duty and convenient. We thought we were going to be in Kona-Kailua but this is north of the airport, 1/2 hour away. There are some beautiful beaches in the area, but the best snorkeling is one hour or more away (Two Step and Captain Cook Monument).

This is a lovely condo. It is right inside the entrance to the HalI'i Kai which made it convenient for coming and going. The kitchen is well stocked for eating in and there was a closet full of beach towels, a cooler, even tennis rackets. Because the lanai faces north it was nice and cool to sit outside even in the warm afternoon. We would definitely consider renting this unit again the next time we are on the Big Island!

This condo exceeded our expectations!!! The pictures do not do the unit justice. Spacious, updated, and had every amenity you can think of. The lanai was beautiful place to start your morning, and the ocean club pool/restaurant/and bar made it feel as if you were in a high end resort. I would stay here again in a heart heat!! Thank you Tom and Gail!!

This is a beautiful condo in a gorgeous community. On top of that Thomas and Gail are great hosts with excellent communication throughout the process. I am extremely picky when it comes to cleanliness and I can honestly say this might have been the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. Everything was spotless down to the blinds. Perfect space for our family of four (two older teens). There is a golf course right down the street. My wife and daughter loved the pool area at the complex and we ate a couple of meals at the pool clubhouse...the food and service were great. Right down the street are two decent sized retail areas with shops and restaurants. Highly recommend the Rum Shack. Avoid A-Bays restaurant...terrible service. Again, I highly recommend staying here...tremendous condo.

This was an amazing place to stay. The condo community was beautiful and the pool is one of the best we have been to. The Beach Club had great food. The location was wonderful, close to the water and beautiful sunsets. The condo itself was clean, nicely decorated, and comfortable. We had lots of room and the kitchen had everything we needed, including a rice maker and coffee maker. Access and parking was easy. The location was central to where we wanted to be. It was even better than we expected. We hope to stay here again on our next trip to the big island.

We love staying at Halii Kai.. The unit is nicely decorated and is very clean . The kitchen is fully equipped with all the conveniences and comfort of home. The only issue we had is the AC doesn’t really cool the unit. We kept all the doors closed but the temp in the unit remains at 84 in the evenings. We didn’t want to open the windows bc there are a lot of bugs outside which is not unexpected due to the tropical climate. Otherwise we had a great time and would definitely come back.

I would definitely come back and want to stay in this again. The only thing it didn’t have was an air fryer. I bought one and I’m leaving it here for another guest to enjoy. With all the fabulous fresh fish around we really enjoyed eating in

We loved our stay here! So many thoughtful amenities-that went above and beyond for a VRBO! We loved having beach chairs, umbrella, and coolers to use at the beach. The boogie boards were great for first time snorkelers! The pantry was stocked with tea and basic needs items. We stocked up at Costco and really enjoyed making our own breakfasts and lunches that we took along as we toured the Big Island! The location is perfect and a great starting point to see the entire island. The beds and pillows were super comfy and the towels and bedding were top notch! We really appreciated the homelike decor and are grateful to have spent our first post-pandemic trip with family in such a lovely place.

We really enjoyed our 6-night stay at this property and would return again in an instant. It is well-appointed with modern updates yet very comfortable and inviting. The kitchen is nicely stocked with everything one needs for meal prep for a crowd; linens were new and plentiful. Also, beach towels, chairs, toys (even snorkel gear!) were available for our use. Everything was in working order for our stay.
The Kellermans were instantly responsive and have everything set up perfectly to make your vacation relaxing and care-free. Hali'i Kai's check-in/check-out process was a breeze. The Hali'i Kai community areas are impeccably maintained, the property is very peaceful and located within an easy walk to the Hilton. Shopping, golf, restaurants, etc. are close by within Waikoloa Village. If you are looking for a peaceful, comfortable and beautifully maintained condo, this is it!

My two grown daughters and I recently spent a relaxing week at 22A . Everything we needed was in the condo - from the beach towels and blankets, lots of little extras in the kitchen and bathrooms, and travel coffee mugs for early morning dives. It's about a 10 minute walk to the Ocean Club facilities - through the beautiful, quiet grounds of the complex, so not really a hardship! The pool, gym and restaurant are lovely , the view is spectacular and the vibe is chill. We really enjoyed the location in the Waikoloa area also - close to the Queen's marketplace, several beautiful beaches, easy drive up to Waimea - and to the wonderful drives of the north island (and away from the crazy Kona traffic!). The owners were easy to communicate with and very pleasant, as were the staff in the complex office.
Christine F.

This was an A-1 experience! The condo was perfect in everyway. I have stayed at Hali'ikai condos in the past and this was by far the best. I always find it frustrating to arrive at a condo and find exceedingly limited supplies of things like trash bags, dish soaps, spices etc....Not the case with this condo. Everything was stocked and ready to go. Greatly appreciated..Thanks for sharing your lovely home!

This is a lovely complex to stay in. The unit in which we stayed was one of the first units by the front gate which makes it easy to get in and out. However it also makes it literally a half mile from the pool and ocean. That was a little inconvenient.
The beds in the unit were comfortable, which is super important to me. They have everything you need in the kitchen and bathrooms to make it a comfortable stay.
We did notice in using both the dishwasher and washer and dryer that the appliances were really loud. I was surprised with a high end condo like this one how cheap the appliances and alot of the furnishings were.
In fact they had a cheap little shoe rack in the closet and our luggage fell over on it and it broke. Don't get me wrong, it was certainly our fault for damaging it , but they did charge us for it.
Over all it was comfortable and clean but for the price I think we would probably try another place next time.
