Kona Makai is a beautiful ocean front complex with beautifully maintained gardens right on the Ocean with dolphin, whale watching. Very quiet complex with private tennis court, free parking, free WIFI. Great pool area on the ocean with spa, ping pong, fully equipped fitness room and BBQ. On the Iron Man Triathalon path. Ground Floor unit for easy access - elevated lanai for views. Bldg 5 is just up from pool and away from road noise, North/South facing for dark cooler morning bedroom, indirect sunlight in living area. Quiet concrete building doesn't transfer noise from other units. Great location, easy access and close to town and beaches.
Great
Brand new 2022 Remodel includes all new floor tile thru out, new panel blinds, new blackout curtains, new bathroom vanity, sink, toilet, walk-in rain shower with seat and hand nozzle. New ninja smoothie and drink maker and food processor. Well stocked with replenished furniture, towels, bedding, kitchenware, ice chest, snorkels, beach items.
The TV in the living room is hooked to cable and even though it is a smart TV we suggest just using that one for cable with the spectrum controller. It gets a little complicated for some to switch back-and-forth. There is a brand new smart fire TV in the bedroom and that one kept internet and games only - it’s not hooked to cable. It’s a smart TV, you have to have a free Amazon account for the fire box controller. You can set up for access and download the apps for whatever you’re watching at home all those Internet apps like Netflix or YouTube or there’s a host of them or connect your own HDMI or USB devices.
Tile floors, fans and AC keep it cool. Hair dryer, iron and ironing board are provided. Snorkel fins, peach gear boogie boards are in the closet, but snorkel gear is subject to use and not regularly replenished. Most buy or rent . Costco or Walmart have reasonable prices and some leave it here.
Two lanais, one with ocean view allow trade wind to flow thru-cooler,nice outside sitting.
Tennis court requires getting the key and returning the key to the HOA manager office, which is just a couple doors down but plan for the weekend because they’re not the end on the weekend. There are a few tennis rackets, but you’ll probably need better balls.
Beautiful snorkeling reefs right at the property with access (except in high surf). Watch dolphins,sunsets and whales from the property.
Very convenient ~ 1 mile walk or 2 minute drive to town and well known restaurants . On the bus/trolley route. Five minutes from famous snorkeling beach with sea wall, lifeguard and sea turtles. Enjoy shopping in town and the open market.
Volcano National Park is a great day trip. Pu'uhonua o Hōnaunau National Park is only 30 min and best snorkeling at 2 step a short walk outside the park.

This is my 4th trip to Kona Makai, and the 4th different condo I’ve stayed in. Each has been clean, well cared for, and had the view as advertised.
The grounds at magnificent, with a fabulous tropical garden. The pool is delightful, and the patio area is excellent. Lounge chairs for relaxing, tables and chairs for dining or socializing, and 5 grills for use by guests!

We have really enjoyed our stay. There is more than enough space for 2. It was very clean and had all the amenities for a comfortable stay. We love watching. The sunset right on the water and walking into town in the am. The location is very convenient.
Thanks for having us.

The BBQ and pool area are amazing. Our best meal was a steak dinner watching the sunset.
Beautiful gardens.

Beautiful sunsets! Lush gardens. Lot's to do nearby but lovely to just sit by the ocean and watch the water. Nice pool area! I forgot something after we left. I reached out to our contact and she was quick to get back to me. They retrieved my item and were very helpful in getting it back to me. Much appreciated for the extra effort on their parts! Would definitely stay again!

We are so lucky to have been able to book this cute yet spacious apartment space on the Kona side. Check in was a breeze (tons of parking available) and the owner was fast at replying to any questions that I had. From the theme of the decor to the endless supply of utensils and water sport/beach supplies, we could tell that a lot of love and effort has been put into the place. Super close to the downtown Kona area. The sunset views from the shared space near the water were a cherry on top. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

The condo was perfectly located for us between downtown and other sites to the south. It also was well stocked with kitchen and bathroom needs. The property was clean, nice staff, and beautiful views of the ocean.

Property met expectations as described
The remodeling was nice and the room was very clean.
Washer and dryer a plus
Most cooking appliances we needed were available, maybe add a rice cooker.
The complex is nice, we took advantage of the pool and bbq grill and watching the view of the sunset was great.
