If you aren't sure if you need to bring something, feel free to message me!

Guest access
The entire condo is your private oasis for your dream vacation in Hawaii! You will have access to the entire resort including the pool, hot tub, gas grills, guest services, open air lounge, beach, one parking space and more.
Other things to note
We have Da Poke Shack, the island's most popular Poke and Hawaiian Plate restaurant right here in our building! Rated #1 of 145 restaurants in Kailua-Kona, they have Poke, Shrimp, Lau Lau, Kalua Pork, and even vegetarian and gluten free options. Eat there or take your plate back to your private lanai and enjoy watching whales breach (Nov-May), the famous Banyans Surf Spot, or spinner dolphins!

Even though we provide lots of amenities like snorkel equipment and various spices, we do not sanitize those items between guests, so please take that into consideration.

We don't do mid-stay cleaning normally but if that is something you are interested in, please reach out and we will discuss if that is something we are able to provide for you.

See what others are saying about Kona Bali Kai #406:
"I have traveled all over the world staying in hundreds of AirBnBs, and this was by far the best one I have ever stayed at. The kitchen was fully stocked with sharp knives, a coffee maker, a Keurig, an air fryer, an oven and stove, every pot, pan, and baking sheet, amongst other necessary pantry items. The beds were incredibly comfortable and nothing compares to sleeping with the door open to hear the crashing waves all night. The lanai was a dream to sit on with a picture perfect view of the sunset. I haven’t even mentioned the snorkeling and boogie boarding equipment! Dawn has done a great job making this place the perfect vacation condo! Communication with the host was easy and I always received quick responses. Check-in was simple and the electronic lock was nice! If you’re thinking of booking, jump at the chance. This place with make your Hawaiian vacation that much better! Oh, and the fact that Da Poke Shack is in the same building is the cherry on top!! We will be back!!"

"This place was exactly what we needed to close out our trip across the islands. Watching the sunset over the ocean and drifting asleep to the sound of the waves was such a blissful experience. The condo was stocked with everything we needed and more, including a high chair and beach gear, which we made good use of. I even enjoyed reading the books on the shelf. As peaceful as it was, it was still super close to restaurants, shops, and the best shaved ice we had on the trip. Although our favorite food was the poke restaurant located in the building. Thank you for the five star experience that exceeded our expectations!"

Great stay, very clear communication from the host. Really appreciated the AC for nighttime. Would recommend. Short drive to the main "downtown" area with some solid food options within a close walk. Love the view from the balcony, watching the surfers all day.

Loved this place - being able to look out the back and see the ocean and surfers. They supplied a few Keurig pods, creamer, and sweeteners. Even shampoo, conditioner, & ear swabs - little things that were thoughtful. Especially loved being able to use the washer and dryer for a quick load before we went to Maui. Would definitely stay here if we’re ever able to come back. Thanks, KB - it was great.

This property has a great location close to town for quick access to restaurants or any other needs - but you are just far enough away for it to be quiet and dark and feel away from anyhting that is busier. If you don't want to drive, you have a little mini-mart across the street that had plenty of stuff (like they sold us 1-stick of butter) and they were super friendly... or a Poke restaurant or a Taco truck on site. The views are spectacular any time of day with amazing sunsets. The property looks just like the pictures online and the owners have done a great job updating their home. Communication was clear and timely and probably the best of any VRBO or ABnB host I have ever had... so that was greatly appreciated. Hosts were very friendly and helpful when I ask a couple questions before our trip. I wish I would have stayed here for a longer period during our Big Island stay and I would definitely stay here again or recommend it to friends/family. My only tip to future guests, most of the parking is under the building... so don't sweat it if you don't see any parking available at first in the streetside lots... there are TONS of spots available under the building!

We’ve stayed in this building before, and it is our very favorite! You could not be more oceanfront if you tried - you can watch surfers while lying in bed and see yellow tan, and turtles from the lanai. And the sunsets every night are spectacular! We stay in a lot of VRBO‘s, but this one is a repeat for us for sure! Cannot wait to come back!

My partner and I rented this unit for a few nights last week, and we truly loved every aspect of the stay. It’s very obvious that the owners renovated the unit to the highest standards, with the best of furnishings and kitchen amenities. The lanai is spectacular, both with the views of the ocean and the outdoor furnishings. The beds were very comfortable. There’s an AC unit in the condo, but we didn’t need it with the cool breezes blowing through the unit both during the day and at night. The kitchen is fabulously supplied, with a dishwasher, and a large sink basin. Parking was easy. And KD made sure to give us very clear check-in directions. Such a pleasure! Thank you so much KD!

The unit was magnificent! From the cleanliness, to the decor, to the comfy beds to the well stocked cabinets they had everything! The VIEW from the lanai is so amazing. As listed we saw the most beautiful sunsets, surfers and dolphins daily. My family and I hated to leave and would love to return. Book now, you won’t regret it.
