About this property

Kalani Kai#109 1st Floor, Remodeled Unit in Heart of Kona Town! Best location

Wonderful Kalani Kai condo that's located in the heart of Kailua-Kona. Walking Distance to Everywhere in Town!

Tiled throughout, No carpet! You'll appreciate a remodeled fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops, good quality cabinets,
Dishwasher, Stove, Fridge, Washer/Dryer, Wifi, Cable TV all included! Air Conditioning Wall Unit in Living Room Only, not in the Bedroom.

This first floor condo has views of a lush tropical garden! The Interior space has been extended, so it's a bit larger than other units because the lanai has been removed. There are sliders that open, but no lanai space as a FYI.

A parking space that's close to the front door as well!

Kalani Kai calls has a wonderful pool deck that is finished in beautiful stonework. A community grilling area contributes to the tropical lifestyle and it's practically right outside your front door.

We had a wonderful time and the property and condo was great. Air conditioning was good, however it would be nice for a unit in bedroom. A few things that would really enhance the unit: We stayed for eight days and the sofa and chairs got a little uncomfortable but overall ok. On your next upgrade it would be nice to upgrade the tub into a tiled shower, just for thought.

Everything was excellent except for the air conditioning situation. We had to have the living room freezing with all the fans running so the bedroom was good to sleep in. With the AC running all the time to keep the front part of the living area cool, it made the it too cold in living room and way too noisy. The TV had to be so loud just to hear. That is the only thing needing work and would keep us from renting again. Ha by big said that, if you don’t mind a warm bedroom at night, it may not be a problem for you. I must say this is a great location and only a 3 min walk to Ali’i. And the pool is very nice as well.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for highlighting the many aspects of your stay that you enjoyed, including the convenient location, easy walk to Aliʻi Drive, and the pool. We appreciate your comments regarding the air conditioning. Every unit is individually owned, and cooling configurations can vary from property to property. We understand that comfort preferences differ, and we recognize that balancing the temperature between the living area and bedroom may not have been ideal for your needs. Your observations are valuable and will be shared with the owner for consideration as they evaluate future improvements. We're grateful you chose to stay with us and are pleased to hear that, aside from the A/C arrangement, you found the property and location to be excellent. Mahalo for your stay, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.

Great place, pros - goodie bag waiting for you to get you started. Everything you could need for the beach. Very good instructions how to get there. Binder with local addresses of places of interest and more. Con - several people were getting sick after getting in the pool including us. Its supposed to be saltwater but I didnt even know that by getting in.

Aloha, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for highlighting so many of the thoughtful touches we strive to provide, including the welcome goodie bag, beach amenities, clear arrival instructions, and the local information binder. We’re happy to hear those were helpful and enhanced your stay. Regarding the pool, it is maintained by the AOAO and is a saltwater system, which uses a different sanitation process than traditional chlorine pools. Sensitivities can vary from person to person, and we always encourage guests to rinse off after swimming and notify us immediately of any concerns so they can be promptly reported to the association for review.

Fantastic place with way too much communication

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was great! Had everything we needed and it was close to everything in Kona. My only frustration was the unbelievable number of emails we received prior to our stay. If you really like over communication then this is your place, but at some point, I just had to laugh. Having to sift through all the different bits of communication to find the pieces of information that were important became difficult after there were probably over two dozen emails.
Response from VrboOwner on 5 March 2026
Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the condo and its convenient location close to everything in Kona. We also appreciate your note regarding the communication. Our system sends several messages prior to arrival to ensure guests have all the important details for a smooth stay — such as check-in instructions, driving directions, parking information, and local recommendations. We understand that for some guests this can feel like a lot, and your feedback is helpful as we continue working to streamline the process. Mahalo again for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to host you again on your next visit to the Big Island!

Very clean upon arrival, even had goodie bags on the desk along with all the instructions qhich were easy to follow. Has all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. Variety of shops and the beach, a walking distance from this location. Chairs, umbrella, mats, snorkeling equipment… even sunscreen are provided, everything you need for a day at the beach. My teenaged son slept on the pull out sofa bed, found it suprisingly comfortable. Very pleased with my stay. Highly recommend!

Close to the center and the beach. A cozy apartment that had everything you need for life and relaxation. My favorite place in this apartment was on the balcony by the window through which there was a great view of the plants. We were very pleasantly surprised by the gift left for us in Hawaiian style.
