Aloha. Hale Kona Kai is known for its location. It is a small, quiet, well-kept complex within easy walking distance of Kona’s downtown. It’s surfside, about the closest you can get to the ocean unless you are swimming. Many of our guests return year after year.
Our unit, #202, is on the south end of the building providing additional privacy away from the pool and away from the other wing. Most of what you see is the ocean. Hale Kona Kai’s units are one-bedroom and the property is entirely non-smoking, with easy private high-speed internet access. Its proximity to the ocean makes it a wonderful place to kick back with a cool drink to enjoy nature’s many offerings oceanfront. If cooking doesn't feel like a vacation there are dozens of restaurants to choose from within walking distance and many more a short drive away.
Begin your day with breakfast on the lanai, watching a school of spinner dolphins swimming by---it is a fanciful show. Looking south you can also see the accomplished surfers. At lunchtime you will likely watch sea turtles sunning themselves on the lava rocks just feet below our lanai, and no one will want to miss the unobstructed view of the romantic sunset. You will not tire of the beautiful scenery throughout the day as it is ever changing. Many guests comment on their restful sleep as they are lured into the land of nod by the rhythms of the ocean surf.
This unit has been tastefully renovated and is well-maintained. It has a comfortable new king-sized bed, a fully-equipped kitchen, fresh paint, a fully tiled shower, and new appliances. It is decorated with a “spirit of aloha” and ready for your enjoyment with all the comforts of home. We leave the condo outfitted as we want to find it when we come to stay.
We have many repeat visitors year round. The building has a heated pool, reserved parking, an elevator, and on-site coin laundry facilities on each of the three floors.
There is so much to do on The Big Island. Here is a just a small list: swimming, surfing, boogie boarding, snorkeling, golfing, hiking, kayaking, walking, whale watching, scuba diving, biking, shopping, dining, and more. There is also great bird watching, botanic gardens and waterfalls to see, and don’t forget the many sacred Hawaiian ancient sites. If you’ve ever thought you’d like to see a volcano close up this is your chance! The Big Island has a little something for everyone and it never feels crowded.
The thing most people ask after visiting is when they can return.
Mahalo for viewing at our listing we look forward to hearing from you.

Why the Owner Chose Hale Kona Kai
We bought in this location because it is so close to the ocean and walking distance from so many great attractions. There is also a nice cross breeze making using the air conditioning optional.

What a great time we had on the Big Island. Anne made is so easy and was patient with my many questions. The weather was partly cloudy but we got our sunsets and cocktails in each night. I enjoyed the privacy and peacefulness of the condo. It's location was great. Close enough to all the restaurants, but far enough away from the crowds, we used this as a springboard to the rest of the island! The condo had everything we needed including information about a great used book store!! This is definitely a must do and must stay place!! Thank you for sharing your condo and letting us enjoy a place that we will surely return to. (Christy & Steve)

This condo is top notch! It is clean and comfortable and the view is unbeatable! We loved our stay here and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect place to stay. It is close to shops and restaurants. The neighborhood felt safe. The bed was comfy and you can't beat falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves!
Owner response:So happy you enjoyed your stay, you are welcome back anytime!

Ocean Front Perfection

Situated as close as one can get to the ocean is this meticulous one bedroom condo. Each time we have visited, updates have been made to make our stay perfection with location. Pictures do not do adequately portray this well maintained and loved property. Although restaurants and attractions are walking distance, one feels in another world with the ocean and the sunsets your vista from the lanai. This is the perfect place for a respite of body and soul.

We would highly recommend this property. The owner was extremely helpful. The unit is in a great location, very clean and quiet at night. You will go to sleep listening to the waves. All the essentials are in the unit, just arrive and relax. Within walking distance of shopping and restaurants.

We very much enjoyed our stay in unit 202! It is a perfect location for short walks into town & a good base point for visits to other areas of the island. We have come to the Big Island several times & this is the best Kona location we have stayed in. The condo had everything we needed - including plastic wrap to store your leftovers or half grapefruit, papaya, etc. We appreciated the small cooler to pack water, snacks, etc. for the longer day trips & were also glad for the beach towels. The lanai was perfect for breakfast in the morning, afternoon relaxing cocktail or dinner in. (we don't need to eat out every night, especially after a long day, grab some Killer Tacos & all set). Loved the place. Will definitely consider coming back next time we come to Kona. Very quiet, no street noise or neighbor noise.

Everything we could possibly need in the kitchen, great beach equipment…the lanai was our favorite spot both for breakfast and after a full day. We will be back.
