A Great Condo!
We loved our stay here. The views can’t be beat. The furniture was comfortable - I really slept well! The kitchen was well equipped with every thing we needed. Lots of spices there for our use too. There is plenty of snorkel equipment, beach towels, etc. We had a little trouble getting the tv going and were completely impressed with the local contact, she was quick and efficient and such a nice person - a real gem. We can recommend highly!

Great views and locale
We have stayed at various KBK properties for the past 20 years. This unit has wonderful views and the host is very responsive as is his local contact. Unit is a bit dated though clean and appointed with everything one needs for a great stay. Our only wish, especially for the price point, is that the unit had a/c for the 3:30 to 5:30pm hot part of the day or additional shades to keep the unit cooler when there are no breezes during those warm hours.

Ocean front at Kona Bali Kai
We had a wonderful stay at Kona Bali Kai overlooking the ocean. The property was perfect for us and I especially loved the Hawaiian artwork. I definitely recommend staying here if you plan to visit Kona and are looking for something ocean front.

Great view, with a few small complaints
Spent the end of our honeymoon here. Wonderful view from the lanai; great place for a meal. We only stayed for two nights, and we were treated to an amazing sunset the first night (we were at a luau the other night). Good proximity to Kona-area beaches; we did Captain Cook (beware the hike out) and Makalawena, which was absolutely perfect. The bed was super comfy, though the road noise was a little annoying (the bed room is on the road side of the condo and you’ll probably be too hot to close the windows). The apartment wasn’t super clean, especially with dust around the fans and higher surfaces. It was also pretty warm even with the windows open at night. Overall, it was good, and if you plan to spend most of your time out, it’s a good place to sleep and spend the mornings and evenings.

Nice But Too Much Road Noise at Night
The condo was nice and in good condition. Safe and pleasant with lanai overlooking the ocean. Lovely view. But the bedroom is on a busy road. At night, even with the ceiling fan and floor fan going, the car-truck-motorcycle noise is very loud until about 2am.The ocean waves don't reach the bedroom even with the sliding door open. We ended up sleeping part of each night in the living room on couch pillows and folded blankets with waves in the background. That was better, but not ideal.

Stay with a VIEW!!
This was the first time my husband and I have ever been to Hawaii and this place was an unforgettable spot!! The sunsets from the balcony will be cherished memories that will last a lifetime! The entire building is a little dated, but that didn't matter to us. The only thing we saw that could maybe be different is having a fully stock kitchenware set. Some of the knives were really dull, or falling apart. We loved the location since it was so close to downtown, but far enough away it wasn't too busy. The last half of our trip was spent in Keaau and we could tell that things weren't as "loved" here. With that being said, we understand that Edgar doesn't live on the island so the small details get over looked. There is no AC and even coming from a desert climate it was still very hot at night. Luckily we always bring a portable fan so that helped to move the air that the two provided from the condo didn't get. Overall we would definitely stay here again!

The ocean view was the best ever. Great location and items were left for activities. There is quite a bit of street noise in the back bedroom and it can get hot if there is no sea breeze. Itemweleftsnorkelsnorkeling,

First time in Hawaii
Very nice condo facing the ocean, ten feet from the water. An older property and well maintained. No air conditioning and it is not needed with the ocean breeze. Two beaches close by. Sand there is course than other beaches on Kona. Close to shops and other activities. The condo is quite, has a pool and an elevator.

Excellent Property for Couples
The property was very clean, in a good location close to Kona-Kailua, and had an amazing view. A very comfortable overall stay for 9 days. We would definitely recommend this property again for anyone who's looking for several nights in Kona, but doesn't want to pay the exorbitant cost for a resort. The immediate area is generally quiet and located close to several public beaches. There are other really nice beaches within easy driving distance. We had a great time here and would definitely recommend again. We had the opportunity to watch two sea turtles up close one day as they frolicked in the waters just in front of the building. The owner was great too - very responsive, and kind to let us have late check-out for a night flight. Definitely a great place to stay for two people looking for an adventure on big island.

Wonderful Stay!
We enjoyed our stay here very much. The incredible view and the sound of the waves crashing will be in our memories for a long time. The condo had everything we needed for a great stay as well as beach towels, beach chairs, snorkel equipment, bogey board. The street in front could be noisy but it didn't bother us.

View that is sad to leave!
This view is priceless. The pictures do not do the apartment justice. The vaulted ceiling make it feel 10x times bigger as well as very up to date with style. Cutest place and could not beat the view for anything. Parking spot is really close to stairway directly to room. Pool was great and having an ocean view from it was amazing. Hosts were so quick to respond and help with absolutely anything. Wish we had more nights at this place will be returning!

Amazing Ocean View
Simply put, this place was amazing. My wife and I enjoyed the ocean view and the space had everything needed for a great experience. We spent lots of our time exploring the island but it was so nice to come back and see the gorgeous sunset while watching the tides come and go. No complaints. The host left a very detailed introduction to the property and island that had everything you need to find things to do. Very happy all around!

Perfect for a quiet stay!
My husband and I honeymooned here in early May 2024. The pictures on the listing are EXACTLY what to expect we were so excited to see the view in person. The building itself is a little dated, but as soon as we got to our room we completely forgot about it. When we first arrived we were nervous about the noise level we would hear from being so close to the street, however the waves themselves were so loud we couldn’t hear anything over them. Kitchen was perfect for our breakfasts and lunches, and having a washer dryer in unit was a blessing. We are so excited to come back someday!

We stayed here our last 2 days of a 12 day trip. It was absolutely amazing! I wish we could’ve stayed longer. The condo was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. As was the couch which is where I slept so I could hear the waves crashing as I fell asleep. We found a little beach area just down the stairs with a picnic table so you could sit and enjoy the waves in the sun. Very close to everything. I would definitely stay here again!!
