We had an amazing view to watch the waves and surfers. The location is conveniently near to the waterfront businesses and other beaches.
Your view if checking in November.
That's 305 in the middle. Different areas of the complex has a 4th floor.

This host was 5 star as far as his quick communication when an issue arose with the AC. He was amazing and attentive. The furniture was a little outdated and the mattress we slept on was very hard; but that may be a personal preference. We did have an ant problem in the kitchen and they got into all of the food we had on the counter, like cereal boxes. We come from a dry climate and didn't even realize that could be an issue, and it was. The location was good and the parking was great. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that the inside furniture was outdated, the ants, and the hard mattress.

This is my Favorite Place to stay in Kona. The water wasn't Hot, but the Host responded immediately and it was fixed immediately. I love the spot and you have Banyan Mart across the street and the Taco Stand right next door. No need to go anywhere when you get there. Love it and will be back!!

Perfect location. View can not be beat. Four adults room for everyone. AC was a god send the first few nights. Was very humid. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook. Loved the filtered water pitcher. My adult nephew even said the hide a bed wasn't to bad. Loved the beach chairs. They also had umbrellas , beach toys and a couple boogie boards. I made a mistake and booked the wrong check out date. Lucky for me they were able to accommodate us another night, even a lower rate then we book. Definitely will look into staying here again.

Great oceanfront stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at Kona Bali Kai. The condo was clean, comfortable, and right on the ocean—the highlight was relaxing on the lanai and watching surfers just steps away. The location is peaceful but still close to downtown Kona. Having a kitchen and in-unit laundry made things easy, and Da Poke Shack downstairs was a tasty bonus. The only downside is tha the beachfront isn't swim-able and walking to the beach is a long, hot walk in traffic.Would definitely stay here again!
