Beautiful ocean front condo! We enjoyed sitting on the patio watching the sunrise! Even saw a couple turtles right out front. Can't beat the location. Easy walk to town, right on the beachfront path. Condo has all amenities you need. Very comfortable bed and furniture. Felt right at home.

The condo was very clean and well stocked. Even the kitchen. Impressively.My only complaint was sliding glass doors were filthy. The room had a beautiful ocean view that was defused by the doors. There was windex in the condo but basically empty. Not enough for the window or the multiple glass top tables. We did clean some things with water, but were running out of paper towel and didn’t want to use the lovely with towels.

3rd time at Pono Kai, we love it there. The beach is very small, and ok. 2 miles north is much better. Pono Kai is our home away from home, and Kapa'a is heart warming every time.
