Reviewer Comments:
The property is very dated, furniture is old the bed was horrible. The shower pan was black the floors were dirty. However, management was very considerate to our grievances and was disappointed that we didn’t contact them right away to have the unit recleaned. It’s unfortunate but we will not return or recommend to friends and family.

Excellent! Thank you for a wonderful vacation getaway! The location is perfect and the maintenance was great. Our unit needs a few upgrades but other than that, lovely, relaxing space. Very enjoyable and recommended.

We love staying at the Hale Kai. The location is amazing, with the cutest pool and fabulous ocean views. There’s even a small little beach off to the side. It feels like your own private beach! The grounds are impeccably kept, and it’s usually quite calm and tranquil.

AMAZING! Amazing amazing amazing (is that too many "amazing's?) This condo was fantastic to stay in, a cute apartment fully furnished accompanied by a breath-taking view of the ocean and direct access to the beach. If that doesn't sell you on staying here...I don't know what will. In addition, this complex is close to town which makes it extremely easy to get around without driving to Timbuktu. Melody will take great care of you and your family during your stay, offer great recommendations and helpful trip advice for you first timers. Thank you for providing a smooth check-in process and the literal best vacation I've ever been on!

My husband and I stayed at this property 40 years ago when I turned 30. Since I turned 70 this year we wanted a special place we could bring our family and each could have their own unit. I love being right on the beach. I love that there are there’s a market & a coffee shop and the park next-door. Simple and perfect! Valerie was very helpful as well. The kitchen had everything we needed. Now we all have memories to share

The condo had a great view and was clean. But it needs serious renovation. Door to bedroom is broken, toiletcabinet is totaly warn out. Armchair in livingroom is extremely dirty. Dinning room chairs need new seats also stained and dirty. Some kitchen utility missing. This condo should not be remted out till things have been fixed.

Location is fantastic! It's right in front of the beach and there's a walking distance farmer's market nearby. The only thing I wish they had was portable or wall unit AC as I was there in September and it got too hot to stay during the day. However, it gets cool enough to sleep comfortably at night. The place was super clean and had no mosquitos! I highly recommend this place!

The unit needs a lot of work and a deep cleaning. The bathroom was very dirty and the dishes in the cabinets were also not clean. Sleeping was difficult. No air conditioning and the traffic noise was loud most of the night. The bedroom door was broken as well as the door frame. At one point the door blew shut and since the door knob didn't work, I was locked in.

We noticed small drops of blood on the sheets and thought it was strange but didn’t think more of it until more spots kept showing up each day. My husband then realized it was likely bed bugs. He pulled the sheets away to discover more blood marks on the bed shirt and other bedding. We were offered a different condo to stay in for our last night; however, we were so disgusted we booked a different accommodation. Our last 24 hours of our Hawaiian vacation were spent frantically packing up all of our belongings, dealing with maintenance and the rental manager, throwing away all of our food we had purchased for dinner and breakfast (our new accommodations didn’t have a kitchen), finding new accommodations, moving to a different hotel and getting situated there. NOT how we’d intended to spend our last day. Additionally, when we returned home we had to throw away all of our luggage and spend the time carefully laundering all of our clothes and cleaning all our other items. The rental manager said that they checked the place the next day and there were no bed bugs; however, I don’t think anyone should be staying in that unit until things are fully cleaned and replaced. We received no compensation or refund for any of the issues or costs that were incurred. The overall condition of the unit was poor compared to the other units we saw. It needed a really deep cleaning. Rather than taking the feedback, the rental manager stated that “it was the end of busy season and they all needed to be deep cleaned.” Which, again, I don’t think was the case as other unit looked to be in better condition. The overall location of the complex was great and staying on the second floor facing the ocean was a great view. I wish we had a better experience with this particular unit because we really did like the complex. I’d recommend just selecting a different unit. I wil

This was our 2nd visit to Hale Kai, first stay in #217, and it was a perfect fit for our family. My wife and I were comfortable in the master, and our two boys (10 and 8 years old) were more than cozy on the two sofa's that are actually impressively comfortable beds. I even slept on the large couch one night and I almost preferred it to the king bed, I'm 6'1. Cannot recommend Hale Kai highly enough...we will be returning ASAP.
