Great Quiet Spot

This was the perfect place for my husband and I to spend 6 days on the Big Island. We loved being close to downtown and all the restaurants and in a spot that had its own coastline access, pool, and hot tub. The place was super clean and the kitchen tools and beach gear was excellent. We also appreciated having plenty of parking and a gate at night for added security. We would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a great place in Kona!

Beautiful Grounds

My Husband and I stayed for 10 days at this property. The condo is a bit dated, but offered everything we needed. Beach stuff was included, which is a must for us. The grounds are very well manicured and the view of the sunset is perfect. The property managers were super good to deal with and answered and resolved any inquiries we had.

Book it!

I was impressed with everything about this place. It is kept immaculate inside and out. The pool is warmer than most and the hot tub hits the spot. The grill and chill area right on the rocky beach is pretty epic. When I booked this place my only qualm was the carpet in the photos but that’s since been removed. Book it! Mahalo!

The area is quiet, clean and close to the shore.The condo was large for our family of 3, and we had all the needed tools, more than enough actually.Loved enjoying the breakfast on the large balcony, BBQing at the shore, using the very clean pool.I can only recommend this place, if you’re looking for somewhere to stay with quiet, close to nice sandy beaches, close to the center of Kailua, and so well equipped.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. 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: We loved this vacation rental, because it was very quiet situated, had a wonderful garden, was large and well equipped. The management was helpful. But the booking could be done easier, as we experienced in other similar condos: less mails (we got all twice from Knudson and ), some several times, a signment of a rental agreement we had in no other case and this was stressful for us, the download of an extra app we think is not necessary, a mail with the entrance codes one or two days before would be satisfying.

Amazing

This is a beautiful condo right on the Ocean. The water is so blue; The trees, plants, and flowers will leave you in awe. Lots of little geckos and zebra doves singing. Great Pool at the facility. The walkways along the ocean are breathtaking. This particular condo has great artwork on the walls. Everything was clean and in good working order. Communication was fast and efficient. There are two Lanais. One on each side of the building; One is very quiet and shaded off of the bedroom. Perfect for meditation or reading. The other is great for meals and sunsets!! Spectrum Cable TV. We loved it here. Would study the building layout a little if you are coming late. I was a little confused on which building was ours. For 3-203 go all the way to the left and then about halfway down the footpath.

Many short visits and Hawaii is still the best.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Information to be included with reservation and not by text!!! Posted within complex: " Information regarding departure guest clean-up." Now we are expected to do almost all cleaning. Wipe down glass tables etc. fridge stove etc. Remove all garbage and bottles. No definition for what is "Too Much " for housekeeper. Insulting to consumers who pay inflated cleaning fees. AS A CONSUMER- I expect furniture to be sanitized, free of debris, stains on cloth furniture and cushion covers, rugs cleaned of stains, shower curtain washed and no food behind stove, dryer vent cleaned and wall stains from insects removed.

It came fully stocked with extra towels, bedding and dishes. The ceiling fans were a big plus so that we didn't need to use the A/C. There was a nice garden and ocean view from the lanai with beautiful sunsets. We walked into town several times to browse and shop. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Ocean View & Beautiful Sunsets

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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: We absolutely love Kona Makai. This was a last-minute trip, and we usually try to book ocean front but found this little gem available. You could totally see the water and the amazing sunsets from the lanai. A little 30 second walk to the ocean front if you preferred to see it from there. The room was INCREDIBLE, and the property is immaculate. The remodel was stellar - honestly this was one of the nicest rooms we have ever stayed in across all our trips to Hawaii. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would definitely recommend this room to friends and family if looking for a room that is less pricey than a true oceanfront. Also need to give 5 plus stars to Knutson and Team - we have booked with them multiple times and the service and check in is top notch! They really want your stay to be perfect! Mahalo for being part of an amazing week for us!
