Decorated with care, it can comfortably accommodate four guests. Situated just a half-block away from Kahalu’u Beach Park, guests can bask in the beauty of the Pacific Ocean and soak up the warm Hawaiian sun.
This condo serves as the perfect launchpad for daily Hawaiian adventures, while its serene lanai provides an ideal spot to unwind with a glass of wine at day's end. Additionally, guests can take advantage of the pool, jacuzzi, and barbecue area during their stay.
The condo benefits from refreshing breezes that keep it cool, while the tropical landscaping outside adds to the tranquil atmosphere.

Whether enjoying your morning Kona coffee or a sunset meal, the lanai offers a serene retreat with a peek-a-boo view of the pool.
As night falls, retire to the primary bedroom, featuring a king bed, en-suite bathroom, and access to the lanai. The second bedroom boasts a king-size bed and large windows offering views of the picturesque landscape.
Located in the heart of Kailua-Kona, guests can easily walk to the beach and explore activities such as dolphin and whale watching, scuba diving, and snorkeling. The vibrant Kahaluu neighborhood offers a blend of vacationers and locals alike, all relishing the beauty of the island.
Just a two-minute drive away lies the Keauhou Shopping Center, where guests can indulge in a variety of dining options including Japanese, Italian, Thai, Mexican, and Hawaiian cuisine.

Three nights in Kona

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was an okay experience staying in this particular property. It is a good but very basic place. Compared to my many experiences in the past, this place had minimal amenities. For example not even some tea bags or basic coffee was supplied.

The condo was nice and was clean. Pool area was clean. Beware the geckos will take any opportunity to get into the condo, but they are harmless. A few minute walk from a good snotkeling beach and near to various shopping areas and restaurant.

Great close to town but quiet snorkel beach rest

Property was fantastic, and the accommodations were excellent. Beach gear was an amazing addition. Cooked and ate in most mornings and lunch to save money for big dinners out. Overall very quiet and comfortable except for the random island roosters at 530, but thats inevitable, lol. The upstairs neighbors was a little noisy Saturday evening and early Sunday, but quiet the rest of the time. Overall great place, just bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper for the chickens.place, just

This location was just perfect. It was close to the beach and snorkeling, but far enough away from any heavy traffic. It was quiet and we slept so good! The room was clean and well stocked. We would 100% stay again.

Great location and wonderful place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Kahului Bay. Location was super. The beach and bay was basically across the street, but the way that our place was designed we had complete privacy with a great patio surrounded by a small lawn with tall plumeria and other tall plants. Management was very responsive to any questions or concerns. We would stay here again and will recommend to our friends.

Amazing place

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean and perfect for us. Right across from a beach so if we didn't feel like driving we could just walk down and snorkel. We stayed on the bottom floor and it could get quite noisy with people above but *most* adhered to the quiet hours... Definitely will book again!

Great start into vacation

After the arrival in Kona from our 24 h flight in the evening, it was a wonderful experience to come to the apartment and swim in the pool of the house. The next morning we enjoyed breakfast on the shady and cool terrace. Afterwards it was nice to have to walk only a few steps to the beach to snorkel and experience beautiful fish. Mahalo!

Lovely Beach Retreat

Had a wonderful 8 days in this unit. Very clean and manager was very good about returning calls. Had absolutely no problems just wanted to see if we could get in early and need trash bags. The unit served us well and the walk to the beach was only 2 minutes. We walked down every night to see the sunset. We would definitely come back to this location.

This was a beautiful, wonderfully furnished, unit. It was very comfortable and nicely secluded on the ground floor back corner of the building. The property is very clean, the pool is refreshing and best of all it is just a half block from Kahalu’u Beach Park with excellent snorkeling and beautiful sunsets.

Great place - risk of noisy neighbours

We stayed 4 night at this ground floor apartment in Kona. The neighbours in the apartment above us had multiple children who were constantly running back and forth with little regard to the hour - despite speaking to the property manager, nothing happened. I was recovering from the flu which made the noise difficult with my recovery. Additionally, thee toilet seat (as you enter the apartment on the right hand side) has the worst possible seat in existence. Instead of being curved outward, it is curved inward and like sitting on the ends of the letter C. It played havoc with my hamstrings to the point that I would use the other toilet as the pain of sitting on this one was unbearable! Please fix this!Otherwise a nice place to stay with a parking spot etc. The weather wasn't great so the beach was closed.I would only go again if the toilet seat was fixed. The pain it caused lasted several days and no amount of money is worth spending to be caused that level of pain and dare I say injury!
