Recent Kona guest reviews

My family of 5, including an infant, enjoyed our 9 day stay at Kona Bali Kai. Being so close to the ocean felt like a dream, the sound of the ocean and the ocean breeze was so refreshing. We bbqed one night on what felt like brand new bbqs, I wished we would have bbqed every night it was so enjoyable being there. The tide pools in the morning provided lots of sea life from tropical fish, sea turtles to eels. We would love to come back and stay in our unit at Kona Bali Kai again. Only thing was having an infant on the 4th floor a little freaky but we ended up securing a screen mesh over the balcony during our stay and removed it on our last day.

The owners take great care for this place. It was super clean and had everything we needed. The location is amazing. We rented kayaks for the week and were able to get in the bay right from the property (be advised this is not for the feint of heart as the entrance is rocky and you need to time with the waves). The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We watched amazing sunsets from the lanai after snorkeling in front of the house. If you want a relaxing vacation in a house right on the water, this place can't be beat. Mahalo!

Why vacation in Kona?

Kona is a place where tradition meets beach days. You’ll find historic heiau (temples), royal heritage sites, and scenic drives surrounded by lava fields, all just minutes from world-class snorkeling, fishing, and beachcombing. This side of the island stays dry and sunny year-round, making it the go-to destination for outdoor activities like kayaking, hiking, and sunset cruising. It’s also the heart of the island’s famous coffee belt, with scenic farms offering tours and tastings along the slopes of Hualālai volcano. While Kailua-Kona offers the hustle and harbor, the greater Kona District stretches out into peaceful coastal communities, upland rainforests, and oceanfront adventures.
