Kaleialoha

Kaleialoha is an older, low-key complex right on a lava seawall in Honokowai, where guests spend their days on the lanai or the oceanfront lawn watching turtles graze the reef and whales spout offshore. It suits couples who want the sound of the surf more than a sandy beach or resort pool.

What guests say

Guests love

  • Turtles grazing below the lanai. Green sea turtles feed on the rocks and reef right in front of the seawall, often in the afternoons, and many guests snorkel out to swim alongside them.
  • Whale watching from home. In winter, guests watch humpbacks spout, tail slap and breach from the lanai over morning coffee, and several say to bring or use binoculars.
  • Oceanfront lawn and grills. A grassy strip along the seawall has lounge chairs, tables and gas grills, and guests like cooking dinner there while the sun sets toward Lanai and Molokai.
  • Quiet, uncrowded feel. Guests describe a peaceful complex with little hallway traffic and constant wave sounds, away from the resort crowds but close to food trucks and markets.

Worth knowing

  • Seawall, not a sandy beach. There is no real beach on site - water access is via stairs off the rocky seawall, so a few guests found swimming awkward and drove to sandy beaches nearby.
  • AC often stops at the living room. Many units have a single wall or window AC in the living room that does not reach the bedroom; some guests found it hot, while others say trade winds were enough.
  • Older building, modest pool. The complex is dated, and a few guests found the small pool on the parking lot side cool and short on sun; parking spaces can also be tight.
Choosing a unit: Ground-floor units open straight onto the oceanfront lawn, while third and fourth floor guests praise the higher view and corner units get extra cross-breeze. Some units face the mountain side rather than the ocean, so check the listing.

Incredible ocean view with a lovely little beach and a view of turtles eating on the reef in the afternoons. The bed and furnishings were comfortable and there were beach chairs to use. Wonderful stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 209. We were there for 9 days and were able to enjoy all it had to offer. The unit was clean and had everything we needed. We were very grateful for the cooler, umbrella and beach towels which we used daily. The view and AC were wonderful and we loved our evening time out on the lanai enjoying sunset. It was not fancy but everything you need for a great week and at a great price.

Pans were terrible for cooking- no amenities in the kitchen (zip locks, foil, plastic wrap etc). Recycle is self separated behind garbage. Only one neighbor smoked while we were there. Pool code is 3785(lock icon). Nice shower water pressure. All else was ok

This was an amazing condo. Had everything you could possibly need and more. Beautiful views, quiet. No exaggeration the beach and seeing sea turtles are 30ft from your living room.

Our stay was fantastic! The condo was exactly as described, and the views were absolutely incredible. We were lucky enough to see turtles nearly every day, which made the experience even more special.The location was perfect—close to plenty of great places to eat and just a short walk to the beach. The unit had everything we needed and definitely met all of our expectations.The management team was also wonderful. They checked in with us during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed, which was a thoughtful touch and much appreciated.Another great bonus was that the condo included coolers and beach gear for guests to use, making beach days even more convenient.We would definitely recommend staying here and would happily return.Mahalo!Nate
