About this property

Our unit 1002 at Kanaloa provides just the right blend of luxury and value, in an unsurpassed Hawaiian setting. This large (1500+ sq.ft.) and elegant condo is situated on the north edge of the Kanaloa complex, facing the Kona Country Club course about 100 yards off the ocean. It's an ideal setting for fun family vacations or tranquil getaways. If you have stayed at other condo complexes in Kona, you'll be struck by the large size of this unit, as well as the traffic-free environment. We've just completed master bathroom renovation, plus recent kitchen and living room upgrades. It's looking better than ever!

The Castle Kanaloa at Kona resort is famous for its gorgeous tropical landscaping and peaceful ambiance. Kanaloa features three swimming pools with spas, and lighted tennis courts. The 17-acre resort grounds are spacious and quiet, and the coastline is spectacular as Pacific waves break on black lava rock. The surrounding Keauhou Bay area is rich in Hawaiian history, and makes for pleasant walking. Here you are free from the traffic and congestion along Ali'i Drive, but still just minutes away from downtown Kailua-Kona.

The unit is comfortably furnished, island style. You will find a king bed in the master suite and two twin beds (or queen conversion) in the second bedroom. We also have a new queen size, plug-in aero-bed for comfortable sleeping in the living room. There's cable TV and an Apple media player in the living room, and a Bose music player. Fast wifi is available throughout. In the kitchen you'll find everything you need (we just added to or upgraded available cookware, tableware and appliances.)

The large, shady lanai is perfect for morning coffee or evening dining, with lovely garden and mountain views. Then walk out to the ocean pool, or along the rocky shoreline to watch the sunset.

We have owned and managed this unit since 2001, and are committed to quality and fairness. A number of guests come back for extended stays again and again. We live off-island, but our local representative (and the great Kanaloa maintenance department) are always available if need arises. Please contact Scott or Jen if you have any questions, and let us help you plan your trip to the Big Island. Mahalo!

Very nice condo - clean, kitchen is well stocked with things you might need (coffee filters, spices, etc). Covered lanai with view of the ocean and short walk to it was awesome. Hopefully we’ll be back!

yes we enjoyed your condo w many charming features , and of course wonderful private location . we spent quite a bit of the time at the beach pool. The waves were spectacularly beautiful. The remodeling next door was disconcerting with pounding and sawing Realize not in very your control The washer was antiquated It was difficult to use with lengthy time cycles At one point while trying to set a cycle, there was a strong and unpleasant oder of sewage Very upsetting However a lovely location Thank you.

The best thing about this condo is its location- situated on a beautiful golf course along the ocean. The condo is spacious and clean. The only downside was the attendants staying in the condo above us were loud- heard stomping feet and conversations. But overall we were really happy with it:)

We enjoyed our stay at Kanaloa. Check in was easy and communication with the owner was quick and reliable. The property was walkable and beautiful. The pool by the ocean was especially inviting. The condo was large and inviting and had 2 outdoor lanais that we enjoyed. Adequate dish and laundry supplies were appreciated and not always available in other locations. Loved the pebble and chunk ice on demand in the freezer! The only critique was that the pressure in the master shower was not great. This was a comfortable stay for our family of large adult and semi adult sons.

We had a wonderful time staying in Scott & Jenn’s condo. So comfortable for us and our 2 boys (17 & 20) our 6’3” 17 year old was so happy for a bed to fit his length. It’s a great quiet location, kitchen is very well stocked. You do need a car but getting around is super easy. If we come back to Kona would definitely stay again.

This is our 4th year staying at the Kanaloa Kona condos and our second time in this specific condo. We love the beautiful and relaxing setting and the awesome pools. We have 3 young children and this has been our favorite vacation spot.

Cockroach problem. We contacted owner and they arranged treatment but we continued to have cockroaches throughout the unit. We were very disappointed.
