What a View
Tracy and her team at Kona Properties are superb. They always answer emails, phone calls and address/resolve any issues promptly.Unit #213 was outstanding with an amazing view from a large lanai that was almost over the ocean. The condo was very nicely furnished and equipped with just about everything needed for a most pleasant stay....we spent most of our time on the lanai enjoying the spectacular sunsets and listening to the waves crashing against the lava rocks.The condo is within walking distance to shops and restaurants and we will definitely stay here again on future trips.

It was a great vacation, staying at Hale Kona Kai worked out perfectly. Great location, clean and comfortable. Spent most of the time on the deck enjoying the breeze and sounds of the ocean surf. Many thanks to Tracy for all her help. Tracy does a great job as manager, always available, helpful, and very pleasant.

Condo in Kona, HI
Rental (condo) was as advertised & depicted. Well appointed. Comfortable. Well equipped. Had to relocate to different unit several days into stay to allow access for repair/maintenance to lanai. Back pain kept me from moving baggage so PrM team (Tracy & Taina) kindly moved baggage to another unit which was even better than the 1st. Overall good experience.

Beautiful views
Property was just as pictured, except the views and sounds of the ocean were better! Check-in and parking were easy. Everything we needed (even a beach cooler and snorkel equipment) were provided. The hotel next door is still under construction, but we were mostly there over the weekend, so it didn’t bother us at all.

Great place
Very nice with exceptional view. We had a short stay, but the condo has a great wraparound lanai to enjoy mornings and evenings. Kitchen is well appointed for cooking and had basic amenities (salt, pepper, oil), and the property provides cleaning products for the kitchen and laundry and bathing. A real plus. Very nice setup !

Outstanding location and view
This unit is walking distance to downtown Kona which is great because there is now a charge for parking in town. Although the lanai is large and partially oceanfront, the view from the master bedroom is of the hotel next door which is under construction. It was not loud or a problem, but we chose a unit with a smaller lanai with an ocean view for our next visit.

Great location, can't get closer to the shore
We enjoyed our stay, all the basics were provided and plenty of towels. Seems prior guests also left snorkeling gear if needed. The first morning there, the seas were so rough a wave soaked us and left a salty taste in our coffee.

Perfect Location
You don't get any better ocean view, breeze, and sound of the waves crashing than this. The condo was fully equipped with everything you'd need, but there's just a lot of clutter inside, which made it feel not quite as peaceful for me. That being said, I like very minimal décor so others may think it's perfectly Hawaiian. Tracy was really easy to work with and very accommodating and helpful with my special requests.

First Time on Big Island
My initial thoughts were that the property was much smaller than the photographs showed. However, after getting settled in, we really enjoyed everything about 213. There was a little noise from next-door, where the Royal Kona resort is being renovated. But this has a little effect on our enjoyment of the lanai. We had some trouble figuring out the television channels at first(!) Location is first rate. Easy walking distance to anything you want along Ali’i Drive. All in all, very enjoyable.

The location of the condo to the heartbeat of Kona was spot on. Restaurants, shops, historical sites, and entertainment were minutes away from Hale Kona Kai. The furnishings of the condo were beautiful and the photos accurate and representative of the actual decor. The sunset views from the rap around lanai were awesome. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Location, View, Pool, Lagoon & A/C
My husband and I booked a late trip to go enjoy our wedding anniversary & get some dives in. We enjoyed: Location is perfect, within walking distance to all restaurants, shops, etc. View is lovely looking out over the ocean & listening to the waves crash right outside your lanai. The a/c was fixed & worked great. The kitchen had everything needed, was stocked & worked well for us. There were beach chairs, snorkel gear, towels, etc. We didn’t enjoy: Place was small & only surface clean. Things were wiped down, vacuumed, mopped, etc. But there was so much caked on (moist) dust on everything that I spent the first 1/2 day cleaning everything so I could be comfortable. For example: I threw my pillow down after fluffing it & a cloud of clumpy dust blew up everywhere. On further inspection the entire headboard (wood) was covered in that gross wet clumpy dust. I went to plug in my phone charger & the wood on the side tables was the same. I put all the fake plants outside because the wet dust was so thick on them. The lamps, backs of the tv, all the a/c vents & return were thick with dust. I’m not talking about a months worth of dust. I’m talking thick, moist, layers of neglectful dust. Sheets & towels are TIRED & need replacements. Construction is going on at the Royal Kona & our building had a new security system installed during our stay. No naps for us, just constant drilling. Place is outdated & needs love. Please talk to your cleaners to do a more thorough job.

Great Location
The place is within walking distance of everything you need. Restaurants, shops, bars and entertainment. The place was very clean and well stocked with dishes, pots and pans to cook with, beach equipment and beach towels. The lani is a wrap around which was nice. There is AC in the central area but we didn't need it, the ceiling fan and the ocean breeze were enough. In the bedroom was a small AC unit which made it very comfortable to sleep in. I would make one suggestion because there is a lagoon and trees right next to the unit there were the sounds of birds and frogs all night long. If you are sensitive to noise, I would suggest bringing earplugs. The AC unit in the bedroom did act as a white noise fan, but I was sensitive to the wildlife sounds. All in all, it was a great unit.
