This property is amazingly stocked! From boogie boards to snorkel gear to nice appliances, a full set of dishes and silverware, including sharp knives, along with every cooking utensil or item you could ever need! The property manager knew we were coming in really late and had kids and even stocked some snacks for us! The beds are super comfortable, the couch is comfortable, and the unit appears basically brand new! communication with the owner was very easy. This complex is our favorite one to stay at in Waikoloa, we will definitely be coming back! Couldn’t recommend it more!

Our God makes such beautiful places!! The property is amazing. We had everything we needed and more. Beds slept well. Had coffee (furnished) watching the sunrise and the blue Pacific water. Area was beautiful and quite. Snorkeling gear and other fun time stuff provided. Took a lava rock path to see the sunrise. Pool was great, restaurant food was good and staff was nice. Lots to do in the area. Food is expensive but Walmart is only 20 or so miles away

We stayed in the property for Spring Break. My husband and I and two teenagers had the most amazing time. The condo is absolute perfection. The furnishings and decor are high end and thoughtful. What I really appreciated is that the kitchen/cooking set up had everything that we needed and it was all very high quality and in good working order. The location was a dream. My husband and I made coffee every morning and sat on the patio looking at the water and the golfers. We walked into the little village area for more coffee on the manicured, resort paths. It was very safe and the teenagers were able to go off exploring on their own without any worries. The suggestions for beaches and activities were on point. This property is very close to the most beautiful beaches. Everything we needed for the beach was thoughtfully provided. We did not use the pool area as much, since we are "beach" people, but we did go one afternoon and it was fantastic. We also went up to pool/hangout area for happy hour and for dinner one night. We were very close to all activities. We went down to Kona several times for boat excursions and it was very accessible. I really did not know what to expect, since I had not been to this island since I was a kid. The property and its surroundings exceeded my expectations in every way. We travel a lot and this is one of the nicest condos I have visited. I highly, highly recommend. We did call the Vacasa rep with a question one time and they were super friendly and helpful. Thanks for allowing us to experience this wonderful property. We will visit again!

Exactly as advertised. Owners are incredibly thoughtful and had ensured condo was well stocked with all basic necessities including quality kitchen supplies and beach supplies. Items for guest use (e.g. beach chairs, kitchen knives, etc.) were of good quality and in good condition. Bed was comfortable. Condo was quiet, did not hear any noise from neighbouring units. Owners were very quick to respond to all questions. Would certainly stay here again without hesitation.

We spent a very enjoyable week here with children and grandparents. Amazing view of the ocean and a very well appointed unit. Extras like spices and kitchen utensils, charging outlets in every room, hand lotion, and copious beach equipment were all greatly appreciated. Some of the appliances needed a cleaning... Cleaning out the filters and running some cleansing cycles on the dishwasher, washer and coffee maker greatly improved their function. Club House on the ocean was gorgeous and we enjoyed drinks and food there on many days. Kids all had fun in the pool and asked to go back there every day. Staff were pleasant but overly watchful, with any minor rule deviation being called out and corrected with our group and many others at the pool. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay and would consider returning next time we're on the Big Island.

We loved our time at Hali’i Kai! The community is beautiful and location is great - the water front pool and restaurant were incredible.
The unit was very clean, spacious and well appointed with everything we needed for the stay. We only had 3 traveling (2 adults and our toddler) but could’ve easily fit multiple kids or an additional couple of adults.
Check in and check out were relatively easy and Burt was very communicative throughout.
Would highly recommend!

It was a very nicely appointed condo. The owners have done some nice touches too it including very cool exterior patio doors. We were pretty busy doing things but got good use out of the fulling opening doors. Very pleased with location and amenities

Many condo units in Halii Kai have propane BBQ’s on the balconies but this one does not so beware if you plan to do your own cooking on a BBQ. Community BBQ’s are not that close to the unit and also very poorly lit at night so super inconvenient. The unit owners should step up and provide a BBQ.
Long walk to the pool and hottub (Ocean Club) so not ideal location.
Parking stall is not directly in front of the unit so that was inconvenient. No access to the garage that is right in front of the unit.
No “welcome basket” with small snacks after a long travel day to get there.
No Keurig coffee machine.
No small bag of ground coffee for the old style coffee maker that is in the unit.
Ice maker worked but the dispenser didn’t so had to dig it out by hand.
Washing machine worked but had to be unplugged and plugged back in several times before it would eventually turn on which was frustrating.
Master bedroom mattress was extremely firm. Hardest mattress I’ve ever experienced.
Unit was well decorated but showing its age despite this. Boogie boards and beach chairs are worn out with use and need replacing but it was nice that the unit had them.
All and all, I would stay in a different unit next time I stay at Halii Kai.

Great for a family, beautiful pool area which is what makes this place worth the stay other than that it wasn’t anything out of this world. Walkable to Kings/Queens shopping. It was very nice the condo was supplied with boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, everything you could need. The condo was hot during the night, we messaged to get the temperature turned down 1-2 degrees, it’s a locked thermostat, and they wouldn’t do it… so that was semi-miserable to sleep. Beautiful neighborhood!

We stayed at this property with our teens and grandparents. I have stayed in Wailea in Maui numerous times and this place met every expectation. It was clean, very well stocked and had the perfect amount of space.
The pool is a club house. The staff are wonderful. This complex is the combination of condo living with a private restaurant and bar. It was so nice to walk down to fresh towels, nice loungers with cushions and a full service. You can bring snacks down or cook on the bbq at the pool. You can not bring in alcoholic beverages but they have happy hour in the afternoon with very reasonable prices. They do have a fresh ice cold water stand. On the weekends they have live music, food specials and at sunset the blow the conch with a Hawaiian tribute. There were lots of smaller kids playing with no issues. Pool temperature and hot tub were spot on.
For bugs, just do not leave your screen doors open. There is the odd bug and yes cockroaches are on the big island. There were no bug issues in the condo. The grounds are immaculate and as long as you keep the screens closed the bugs and geckos will stay outside.
The location of the condo is convenient. 10 minute walk to the shops, 5 min walk to the Hilton for Kona coffee or restaurants and 15 minute walk to black sand beach.
This complex is 5 star. All the amenities you could want. We will be back!

We took the family for a Spring Break vacation and the condo was just what we were looking for. Spacious, clean and close to the beach. It was a little bit of a walk to get to the clubhouse/restaurant/pool/gym, but definitely manageable. Would highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The villa was well stocked with beach gear, so that made packing much easier. The views were amazing - we saw several whales while sitting on the patio. The proximity to golf courses was excellent. One thing to note, the pool closes at 8:00 and if you were going there later in the day, they seemed to frequently run out of towels.

Beautiful view of the ocean not to mention the sunset every evening. Also there are big screened tv’s in every room for that down time in the evening before bed. We highly recommend!!!

We absolutely love Hali'i Kai and 16c for our Big Island stays. The resort is always peaceful and serene, the condos are clean and always have a lot of nice touches that enhance our stay such as laundry, extra snorkel gear and beach towels. The pool food and drinks are fairly reasonable compared to other places in the area and the pool itself is always wonderful to catch a sunset at. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

I can’t say enough good things about our recent stay. The condo is exactly as advertised. The view of the ocean and golf course is spectacular. We enjoyed many hours on the lanai watching the golfers, the ocean and spotting whales. The kitchen had almost everything one might need to prepare meals. The washer/dryer was used often as well. We are already planning on returning to this unit.

This is such a beautiful property. I stayed eight nights with my wife and son and loved every minute. We watched several sunsets from our lanai, which is right on the ocean. The unit's building is literally a few dozen steps from the Ocean Club next door, which is great for families with little kids, as well as for grabbing an adult beverage and laying in the sun. The condo itself was just as advertised - spacious, clean, and well-appointed. It's a great jumping off point for day trips, such as driving to Volcanoes National Park. Doug and Vicki are excellent hosts. They responded very quickly when we had a minor issue with the AC. I highly recommend staying here.

The location is wonderful with great views of the ocean, where you can regularly see whales, either from the condo or from the pool and gym area. The condo was immaculate and extraordinarily well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The host was excellent in responding to any questions or needs.

We immensely enjoyed our stay and thought the location was perfect. It is close to some shops and numerous beaches - but also is quiet and private. The pool is great and the food at the pool was really good. The property was exactly what we hoped it would be and we appreciated all of the items in the garage; boogie boards, basketball, snorkeling gear, etc. Highly recommend!

Our family of 4 had a great stay! The lanai had great views of the ocean, sunsets every night, and whales!! The location was centrally located for various beaches, downtown Kona, and access to the Saddle Road that takes you to the Volcano Park. Burt was super responsive and very accommodating. I highly recommend this location for families with older (17+) kids. We would definitely come back!!

We have stayed in the Hali'i Kai complex a number of times but this was our first time renting from Christi. The condo is exactly as advertised if not better. Terrific views of the ocean, golf course and sunset from the spacious lanai. The gas grill works great as we prefer to eat dinner in rather than go out, we used the grill 3 times during our week stay.
The condo is better equipped than most rental units we have seen, everything you need for cooking and serving a full meal. The beds are high quality and the master has a large TV as does the living room.
Because it is a 2nd floor corner unit, the condo has great air flow, should you choose to not use AC full time, as it isn't necessary.
Building 7 is across the road from the tennis courts and a short walk to the Ocean Club pool, bar and restaurant.
Christi is great to deal with, quickly responding to messages before and during our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed this immaculate oceanfront condo for its easy ground floor access, wonderful views, and close proximity to the Ocean Club. Which made for quick and easy access to the pool, fitness center, and restaurant where we ate on multiple occasions and enjoyed evening sunsets. The unit was fully stocked with everything one might need for an enjoyable island vacation. Although we never cooked or made use of the full selection of beach gear. We spent many hours relaxing on the patio watching the whales offshore. And occasional walks around the surrounding areas. Also worth mentioning is being able to park in the carport which ensured the car was cool and comfortable the moment we got in the car to go somewhere. The manicured resort grounds are well maintained as are the buildings. And the owners were responsive and easy to work with. We will definitely be back!

Stayed with my parents who had the main bedroom with the ocean view. My partner and I slept in the second bedroom with a queen bed . The room was so small there was no room for a dresser. I could’ve forgiven that if the mattress was comfortable, but it was old and loud and bowed in the middle, definitely in need of replacing. Otherwise, the location was amazing. You can see whales spouting on the ocean from your condo. However it was a real disappointment that there were no binoculars in the house. It also lacked any guidebook or helpful binder of nearby places to eat. Location is beautiful place has what you need but lack some basic amenities and needs updating.

Everything about our stay was incredible! We had everything we needed for Hawaii fun from boogie boards to beach towels to chairs and sunscreen. The 3 rooms were very spacious with 3 beautiful full baths total, one being attached to the master suite. The lani’s on the first and second floors overlooked the golf course and ocean crashing on the shore. The location was perfect, right near the Hilton resort, king and queen shops, and a short drive to many beautiful beaches. Amenities were great, pool was not too crowded and had great food and drinks. Richard was very prompt responding to any messages and checked in throughout the week. Highly recommend this beautiful condo!!!
