About this property

Hale Kona Kai 404 - Find your Beach with Kona Beach Properties

Hale Kona Kai 404 is uniquely designed. The bedroom and living room are separated by sliding french doors instead of the traditional closed rooms. This allows the condo to open up into one large space. A great benefit to this layout is that the AC works much more effectively in cooling the condo.

Find your beach with Kona Beach Properties! This beautifully upgraded oceanfront property offers unobstructed views of the Kona coastline. The ocean is teeming with life! Sit on your lanai and watch spinning dolphins year around and humpback breaching just offshore during the winter and spring months. Turtles and eels find plenty of sustenance in the tide pools. Wake up and fall asleep to the calming sound of the ocean.

Featured amenities include wraparound lanai, central AC for those extra warm nights and high speed wifi, a necessity for "working" remotely where Zoom conference calls may be necessary.

This unit comes equipped with beach chairs, towels, umbrella, and a small cooler for guests use. It may or may not have some snorkel gear that was left by previous guests. We do not provide snorkel gear. Non-fitting snorkel gear takes all the fun out of snorkeling, so it is best to rent your equipment while you are here.
Hale Kona Kai is a special complex right on the ocean in the heart of Kona. It is a short walk to anything you need; restaurants, entertainment, shopping and beaches. An elevator provides easy access. The property boasts a heated salt water pool and BBQ area. Laundry rooms are available on each floor.

Oceanfront property disclaimer: this unit could not get any closer to the ocean. It makes for great, unobstructed ocean views along with a bird's eye view of the reef below. However, during the winter in Hawaii, we get large swells and wind off the water. Your view may be impaired by saltwater dried onto the glass. During high swells and wind and or rain, it may not be comfortable to sit on the lanai. Please take this information into consideration when booking. If you feel these issues may adversely impact your stay, please call us. We may have other properties not quite so close to the water that may better see your needs.

The island has many resort-quality golf courses, the closest one within 5 miles. There are plenty of places to snorkel from shore, or take a snorkeling cruise. Kona offers world-class fishing opportunities. Catch an Ono for dinner or a world record Pacific Blue Marlin.

This is a no-smoking, no pet facility.

The condo is right on the rock and ocean.

The condo is very quiet off a small street that leads to the heart of Kona’s restaurants. The lanai was my favorite place to have coffee in the morning overlooking the ocean. I would come back.

Unique Ocean Views!

I really enjoyed my time at the Hale Kona Kai condo. It was so neat to be that close to those immense ocean waves! Even from 4 floors up, I could see the yellow and black fish surfing the waves! It's easy to find and close to everything!

Excellent!!

You will not be disappointed! Great location and beautiful unit. We saw dolphins and whales off the lanai. Amazing sunsets every night. My only one suggestion would be is to have curtains on the bedroom doors for a bit of privacy and blocking out light when someone is using living room. But it all still worked. And if you plan to do laundry bring some quarters. We had a really hard time finding anyone on a weekend give us change to wash clothes. Wish we had longer in this beautiful place. A little bit of heaven.

Great Location/Great Condo

First of all, this is a 5 star condo. The location is perfect, and this particular condo meets all the requirements for 5 stars. We have stayed at Hale Kona Kai many times over the past 15 years. It was nice to see the AC had been upgraded. We agree with the listing statement that the bedroom and living room are separated by sliding french doors instead of the traditional closed rooms. This allows the condo to open up into one large space. A great benefit to this layout is that the AC works much more effectively in keeping the whole condo cool. I appreciate the accuracy of the listing, and the picture of the cruise ship out front. It shows they are not trying to hide anything. The cruise ship is only in port on Wednesdays, and it is far enough away that it doesn't even obstruct the magnificent view. I wish they included a picture of the tidepools in front of the lanai. It brings endless entertainment watching the river of yellow tang come in each morning and the eels, and turtles feeding throughout the day. A perfect place to have a slow morning or watch the beutiful sunsets. The only thing I would have wanted included, is some plastic bags, saran wrap and foil. Everything else was provided including coffee. They also provided nice welcome packs of shampoo, conditioner, soap, dish soap etc..

Great Place To Stay

We enjoyed the place a lot. It has a view that is amazing, we enjoyed sitting and watching the waves, the fish and the turtles. Everyday we saw turtles below our room and one was very large and we now call him big Eddy. The pool was nice and never crowded. The location was nice especially if you wanted to walk to the shops and good food close by.

Amazing Balcony

This is a very comfortable and well equipped condo. We spent hours on the balcony, especially since the swell was up and the waves were powerful. Saw surfers everyday as well as turtles and spinner dolphins.

Awesome Once Again!

This is the second time I have stayed at the Hale Kona Kai and it was wonderful. This was not a vacation trip this time around but was for family business. It was great to have a place like this to wind down at the end of the day and enjoy the view. I will certainly book here again and would recommend it to anyone who wants a great view and a location that can't be beat.

Paradise in Paradise

This condo is "Island" decorated that enhanced our stay in Hawaii with a perfect location, basically on the water, and a short walk to central Kona! The unit is remodeled with an open feeling, continuous sound of waves, beautiful sunset views from inside the condo and on the balcony! We would absolutely stay on the property and in this unit on our next visit!

Great location - right on the ocean

Great location - right on the edge of town, walkable to lots of restaurants and shops. Condo was a little outdated - appliances and furniture - but overall clean and comfortable, and the location could not be beat!Condo was very clean and well appointed - plenty of towels and blankets, snorkel gear, tote bags, coolers, chairs, etc. view is amazing, many cruise ships all week long - but be prepared for sea-spray! Even on fourth floor, our balcony was coated in salt and wet with sea-spray most days! Crashing waves really made it hard for anything to dry out there.

Fantastic stay!

Condo was very well laid out and had everything we needed. Walking distance to drinks or restaurants, right on the water, and on a nice quiet side street. The best part was the manager. Husband managed to forget his favorite aloha shirts in the closet and the manager had them packed and sent back immediately, keeping us up to date along the way. Thank you so much!
