This place worked out well for my family of 4. The location is fantastic, and the place was completely spotless. The property is dated, although the bathrooms have been nicely remodeled. Beds were decent. No AC, which made for a warm few nights of sleep, but the fans helped to cool it down and circulate the air…just don’t expect to need any sort of comforter. Kitchen had everything we needed, and the WiFi was great. The private beach was a perk and worth the steep walk to/from…honestly wish we had more time to explore more of it. Overall, I would stay here again…mostly because the location is so fantastic, and the place was super clean.
I stayed in another Pali Ke Kua unit right before this one, which was wonderful and absolutely spotless, so I was expecting a similar experience when I checked into this unit. Unfortunately, I felt so uncomfortable here that I couldn’t wait to leave. I walked in the first day to find 3 dead roaches on the floor in different rooms, a parade of tiny ants on the counter, kitchen smelled like bacon, bedroom floor hadn't been swept, couch was covered in sand, spider web across one dining chair, lanai table hadn’t been cleaned. Found hairs and a stain on the bed, plus more hairs under the covers. I spent hours washing & drying the bedding before actually going to sleep that night. There was a broken window next to the front door when I checked in and the screen was bent out of shape. I had not contacted management about it, but the next day I came back to find someone had attempted to straighten the screen and fix the window with tape, which made me incredibly uncomfortable because I was never told that someone would be entering the unit or working on anything. The day after that, I was in the unit when a man came by and started tearing tape off the window. Of course it startled me. Repairs should be done before guests arrive or management should at least be alerting guests about them. I also killed roaches in this place every single day and just could not get comfortable. If it was maintained & cleaned properly and had better mattress/pillows, it could be nice. The surrounding property is beautiful and quiet, just wouldn't recommend this unit in its current state.

Overall great stay and I would stay there again. Check in was stressful because we were very tired from travel with a toddler and we couldn’t get into the condo without a phone call to the property manager first. Condo was clean. The kitchen was nicely stocked. Mattresses were too soft for my back’s preference. The only beach nearby that is within walking distance other than a resort beach is down a steep cliff.
Our family very much enjoyed our stay at
Clean, great floor plan. Peaceful location…great for a sister reunion. Property is managed beautifully. We just loved it.
We loved staying here. We had trouble getting in with code and we were supported and helped right away. It was very clean. Spacious for two couples and a visitor. We loved sitting in the patio and watching the sunsets, sunrises, and Nenes. Beautiful view. All the amenities were wonderful. We appreciated the beach umbrellas, chairs, boogie board. The washer and dryer were a plus. It was a little warm, but once we opened the windows and turned on the fans it was okay. Trail to Hideaway Beach is paved and very steep. Pretty beach. We wiuld stay here again.
Fantastic location, spacious and comfortable apartment.
Will come again for sure.
The house was in the perfect location, with beautiful views and everything we needed for a relaxing trip. Having the ability to do laundry was a huge bonus. Our favorite part of our stay might have been walking 50 feet to watch incredible sunsets.
This home is decorated nicely. It is apparent that the owners have but quite a bit of effort into furnishing it. The bathrooms have been redecorated and are beautiful. We enjoyed the patio which adjoins a lawn and has an ocean view. The children enjoyed sleeping and playing in the little back den with the sleeper sofa. We were a group of 6 and my husband and I slept in the back bedroom It is beautiful, but small and was cramped, but doable, with us and our luggage.
Just an FYI! Overall we enjoyed your condo. The shower knobs kept falling off (risk of cracking your beautiful Tile) the toilet tissue holder in Master bath is coming off the wall and the Shampoo/Conditioner provided fell off the wall the first day! (Nice touch tho) I also have an Air B&B but I provide salt/pepper for guests! Aloha!
2nd time staying at Pali Ke Kua, excellent location. Pool area is great for the kids
