🐳 Newly Renovated Oceanfront Condo in Kona! 🌅 - Hale Kona Kai 302

True and full oceanfront condo with a lanai (balcony) that almost hangs over the beach. See the ponds below where the turtle and the eels want to come and feed. Let the sounds of the sea make you sleep after a day of sightseeing or relaxation. Both the bedroom and living room face the sea, where dolphins can be seen all year round and whales in season.

Central A/C

Tastefully refurbished kitchen and bathroom.
Desk in the bedroom with a king-size bed.
Living room is furnished with a sofa bed.
Condo has a new island taste in design and comfort.
Dining table and chairs on the lanai.

Hale Kona Kai is an intimate, absolute oceanfront complex of 39 one-bedroom condos. Located on the shores of Kona City, it is off the main road providing calm, ocean-view relaxation from every device. Located just south of Royal Kona Resort, excellent dining at Huggo's or Don Beachcomber's is a two-minute walk away and other restaurants are just a fun stroll away. The white sand of Honl's Beach is less than a quarter-mile south and the Kona Farmer's Market half a mile north.

The complex offers an elevator that provides convenient access for all. On the ocean side, you'll find a heated salt water swimming pool and a grill on the south end of the complex. There are laundry machines available on each level.

Each unit includes designated parking, safe WIFI, and cable TV. Both units, like Lanais, are non-smoking and Hale Kona Kai is non-smoking. Each floor has coin-operated washers and dryers for your use. Each condo does not have its own washer/dryer.

Lovely condo located right next to the ocean and Kailua town. We loved Tanga watching as well as cruise ships, canoe teams, and even eels. We walked to Huggo’s and enjoyed an amazing dinner and 8 inch tall Hula pie.

Our stay at this unit was a very positive one overallThe views from the lanai were possibly the best views we have experienced at any location, we have stayed at on the Islands.The kitchen and pantry were well-stocked and the beach equipment proved to be very useful.Communication with the management company was also a positive as they were attentive and courteous. A couple of suggestions would include the use of roach traps and/or insect traps, which we have seen used as a preventative measure at the majority of properties we have stayed at on the islands. This would have been helpful, as they proven to be very effective in instances in which we’ve seen them used.The amount of moisture in the unit could perhaps be addressed by using damp-rid or a dehumidifier Overall, we recommend this property and Hale Kona Kai in general due to its spectacular ocean views, proximity to restaurants and activities in downtown Kailua-Kona and surrounding areas and the good value for the rate.

Excellent View and Great Location

The view from the balcony is absolutely breathtaking. Kitchen area is great.There are two window vented air conditioning units that can help keep the rooms cool, but there is no central air conitioning. Ceiling fans in the bathroom and living room are helpful for ventilation. Propert manager was very responsive and help when contacted.

Another great stay!

The condo was clean, and had everything we needed and more. The view is always spectacular, and we love watching the sea turtles munch in the tide pools. It's our fourth stay at Hale Kona Kari and we definitely will return!

Nice condo and neighborhood

We enjoyed our stay at the condo and having the oceanfront patio. It was clean and well furnished. The breeze and sounds from the ocean were wonderful. The bathroom was a little tight and didn't have a vent which was surprising.

Better than Home Away from Home

It was snowing in Boise when we left, but Kona always delivers! Hale Kona Kai is wonderful. You can find fancier resorts on the island, but none will get you this close to the waves, the yellow tang, the honu, the sunsets, and the moon on the water as HKK. We've stayed in several condos here and #302 one is nearly perfect.

Hale Kona Kae 302

This is our sixth stay at Hale Kona Kae. With out a doubt this is the best unit we have stayed in. This unit has been updated and is well furnished. It is also has a well equipped kitchen, plenty of crockery, cooking utensils, everything.needed to prepare a meal.

Hale Kona Kai 302

We have stayed in 4 different units in this condominium. 302 is by far the best. It is so well equipt with housekeeping items, kitchen wear, linens and cooking basics There are also all those odds and ends to make your time on the island more fun. It is well decorated and maintained, clean and comfortable. This will always be my first choice!.

Great location, Beautiful View, Dated interior

The location and view were the primary reasons we booked this place. Inside, the interior felt dated but overall fine. There are portable AC units for each room that keep the rooms cool enough if needed but they are very loud. There were smart TVs that connected to our streaming services so that was nice. The kitchen was adequately stocked, although only seasoning was salt/pepper. Some oil is in the cabinets. The closet has tons of camping chairs, 1 beach chair, large cooler, fins, snorkel gear, and 1 broken umbrella (which we didn't know was broken until we got to the beach!) There are a LOT of gnats that come into the unit at night that are attracted by the lights. We didn't know where they came from and was told that they are just a fact of life in that unit and there wasn't much you could do except sweep them away yourself. There were so many gnats one night we had to use the vacuum to try to suction them away, but as we were running both the AC units and the vacuum at the same time the circuit breaker tripped and we had to call property management to tell us where the breaker was. As long as you are ok with some bugs at night then its nice to cook breakfast and eat out on the balcony that is right next to the water.

Great Location & Beautiful View

The location and view is amazing. 5 minute walk to restaurants and shops. Coffee on the balcony in the morning watching the yellow tang feast below in the ocean was a great start of each day with beautiful sunsets ending our afternoons. Convenient parking, fully stocked kitchen, snorkel gear, beach chairs and cooler available for guests. Highly recommend!

Walking distance from everything you need. ( Safeway is 7 minute drive in traffic)Ha I don’t wanna spoil much, I’d rather you be surprised in a great way. So just stay here

Falsely advertised as renovated.

this is falsely advertised as renovated condo. It’s old and dated condo, carpets are gross, air conditioning is prehistoric, kitchen appliances and pots and pans are from ages ago. The rooms smells of unpleasant urine-like smell. Portable A/C units are blocking the sliding doors and windows so they never fully shut. Bug nets on the windows have holes so defeats the purpose of keeping mosquitoes out. Closet in the bedroom is full of owner’s junk such as fishing rods so it’s impossible to store your own stuff. They provide one toilet peper roll as starter pack for three days - so you pay them hundreds of dollars for each day of the stay and they still expect you to go to supermarket to get your own toilet paper. I specifically booked this because I hate old dated condos so was looking for renovated or new even willing to pay higher price. These guys cheated me and took my money for falsely advertised condo. I want my refund!!!

Mostly a good stay at HKK

We have stayed at this complex 8 times now (but not this room). With 2 notable exceptions, the overall cleanliness this time was better than before. Also, the central A/C was not musty/moldy as it was during previous visits. Property manager said that they refurbished the A/C recently. Problems on this visit: 1) There was a cockroach in the bathroom on the last night. This individual unit was clean, so there may be a problem within the complex. 2) We pulled a blanket out of the closet that had some disgusting solid stains on it. This unit has a great view and is nicely decorated. The indoor and outdoor furniture was comfortable. But, for us, the bed was too firm. It is a mattress on a rigid platform. The noted cleanliness problems can be addressed by property management. But the firmness of the bed may cause us to look at other units. Nitpick: The property management only provided detergent for 4 loads of dishes during our 10 day stay. If they want to deter cockroaches, they should provide more detergent. Liquid dishsoap for washing by hand was plentiful.

I find it very hard to believe this condo was newly renovated!! Mold in the tub, toilet perfect size for a child, air conditioner ran all the time along with 2 portable air conditioners (all 3 very noisy)! furniture was very uncomfortable!
