Recent Kailua-Kona guest reviews

The atmosphere overlooking the surf is wonderful. Both the sight and sound of the ocean is incomparable. The pool area is nothing special and is in the center of the unit. Good for children I suppose but not particularly attractive. The unit is older and has some knicks in the woodwork and bumps in the plaster. The front door looks worn. But once you enter and see beautiful interior and ocean view you instantly relax. The ocean surf completely covers and traffic noise. We had no need for air conditioning and would not have closed up the patio screens and shut out the surf for an air conditioner's drone. Great place for coulpes.

One of the things I really like about Kona Bali Kai is the location. It’s about 3 miles south of the business district and not quite so crowded . You can easily get out on Alii Drive and begin your adventure to any place on the island. As far as the unit, I was very pleased. As a matter of fact, I am a returning customer from last year. The unit was very clean, comfortable, and well provisioned (not food, but all other kitchen utensils). This is an ocean front unit and the views from the balcony are nothing short of spectacular. When the surf is right it’s a great area to watch surfers or bring your own board and try it yourself. Surfers were going into the water right off the property. The unit faces west and the sunsets are incredible. No A/C but there are two doors to the balcony and multiple ceiling fans (if needed). We always had a nice breeze coming off the water. The next time I visit Kona I will certainly check to see if this unit is available.

Probably the best equipped vacation home we have stayed in. Was spotlessly clean at check in. Furniture nice and beds very comfortable. Right on the 18th fairway of Kona country club. About an 3 minute drive to golf course parking lot. Great view from lanai but ocean view partly obscured by trees on the golf course but only have to walk 50 feet to see the sunset over the pacific. Unit is only 50 foot walk to lightly used pool and shared grills. Would certainly consider staying again.
