Oceanfront Sunsets in heart of Kona

Located on the oceans edge and in the center of Kona, sits this resort style condo with a bohemian feel, it has all the amenities on Alii drive. The condo has its own tidal pool to swim and snorkel and launch kayaks from when the waves are calm. Fishing from the shore is also allowed. A/c in livingroom and bedroom.

Beautifully landscaped and offers some of the best sunsets and ocean views. Our recently renovated condo/lanai sits directly facing the ocean. You can even sit inside on the couch and see the ocean from it, we make every attempt to NOT exaggerate the pictures. Relax with the pool, hot tub, ping pong or tennis. There is also a small library of shared books. The grounds itself is 5 stars... Think botanical garden.

The community BBQ grills are 20 feet from the ocean. Perfect placement! This unit has NO stairs to get to it, free parking and parking lot is 15 feet from the front door and condo is on ground floor. No stairs. .

Electric bike rental rack across the street and we are hoping the $2 trolley is back that picks up out in front of the condo. Internet search for most current info and schedule of trolley. It's less than 1 mile to the heart of Kona restaurants and bars, so walking is easily an option.

Need a coffee shop in the morning? Green Flash coffee is right next door.

King sized bed in bedroom, and it does have a pull out queen bed as well.

Beautiful condo with sunset views
This place is fantastic. A beautiful, spacious condo with a lanai that gazes directly on the ocean. We watched the sunset from the condo, and then walked down to the water's edge for the last glimpses.the condo itself has a full kitchen, bathroom, and a huge bed in the main bedroom. It's a wonderful spot that feels secluded, but it a short drive from anywhere in Konawould stay again

Lovely stay at Kona Makai
This is our favorite complex in Kona due to beautiful ocean views, lovely pool and meticulous care of the gorgeous landscaping. We also appreciate the low tolerance for noise making it so quiet and relaxing. First time at Jeannette and Micheals unit and we liked it so much we rebooked for next year! Amazing view and property exactly as described. Bedroom is on the parking lot side but we never bothered before noice and the AC was appreciated. Highly recommend.

Great stay at Kona Macai
We are frequent visitors to Kona and have stayed at many of the properties along Ali'i Dr. Kona Macai is one of our favorites due to the vicinity to town and the well maintained grounds. We really liked this unit in paritcular because of how well the kitchen was stacked and the items for the beach. Many STRs have kitchen but have little beyond salt and pepper and it's hard to actually cook a meal. This unit had spices, condiments and everything needed for meal prep. In addition to the kitchen they had beach chais, umbrellas, cooler and it appeared even a SUP. Everything regarding check in and check out was easy.

Magical
This is the second time my husband and I have stayed at Kona Makai; we absolutely love its location and the annual community it hosts. I lived on big island for a long time and it’s a perfect location to walk Alii, get to both Kona town and out of town. This unit, in particular, had an amazing view straight out to the ocean. Was stocked so so well too!!!! Everything was easy, comfortable, homey, and beautiful.

A slice of heaven
Everything about this stay was smooth sailing. Easy to check in. Loved the lanai and the view, watching the birds and the ocean. Its a very quiet condo complex and the neighbors are friendly - lots gather during sunset down by the water. The bed was supremely comfortable and we slept very well. Great location to explore from! Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great stay!
Everything about this place was lovely! Great location right on the water and a very nice view.The only part that was missing was check in instructions with a code to get into the parking lot and instructions on where to park. The gate is normally open but at night it locks, if we hadn't followed a car in we would have been stuck outside. Everything else was very easy and smooth!

Fabulous views
We spent most of our time outdoors as this is Hawaii and there is much to do. We are very active so even though the resort is 3Km from downtown it is a very easy walk for us. The place is very clean and Jeanette and Michael are available immediately if you have any questions. The spectacular view from the lanais is nice to enjoy over breakfast or for a glass of wine at sunset. It is beautiful!

Had a great time! Condo has a great view of the lawn with pool and ocean beyond. Location is awesome with town just 5 min drive away. Couldn’t have asked for more for what we paid. No frills, but we didn’t spend much time in the condo anyways.

Relaxing Time in Kona
It was a wonderful stay at the Kona Makai. The place is as described with the wonderful ocean view. My only comment was that it was hard to open the door with the keys and Vrbo didn’t give me a gate code on the arrival instructions. I found that out on the property rules and guidelines once inside the property.

Wonderful getaway
We had a wonderful time in Kona. The condo was a good size for the 2 of us. The bedroom and the living room each have an ac unit which is nice. The view from the living room and back lanai is nice of the gardens and the ocean. Owners were very responsive to any questions we had. We would stay here again.

As advertised and worth the visit!
My wife and I stayed here September 2024 for 4 nights. The property was as advertised and was an incredible location. About a mile walk to shops and restaurants - which was the perfect distance to be close to things, but not be right in the mix. We made the walk multiple times a day. The host was incredibly responsive and always helpful. Not to mention, the view from the lenai was amazing. We would happily stay here again!

Fabulous Stay in Kona
The property was perfect for us as we were looking for a place that made it easy for us to travel the west coast of the Big Island. The condo is not far from the downtown Kona area, parking was a breeze, and the condo was stocked with everything we could ever need. An extra bonus was being able to hop in the hot tub after hiking and snorkeling at the Captain Cook monument. We highly recommend this condo for the home base and amenities it provides!

Felt like staying at a good friend's home
Very much enjoyed my stay. Everything was exactly as described. I really liked the ground floor view framed by the beautiful landscaping. So convenient for getting to and from car. Kitchen had everything I needed and more, even a garlic press. Many personal touches and decorations around the home. I've never had keys on a lanyard before, such a good idea - i didnt lose them once. :-) Morning coffee on balcony and sunsets down at water were perfect.

Vacay in Kona
The location of this vacation rental was great. The view of the ocean from the lanai was amazing. The place was cozy and comfortable. Had some issues with the kitchen sink. Heard water bubbling and there was an odor that didn’t smell good.. like black olives or something. The bathroom sink drained slowly. We looked for drain clog remover but couldn’t find any. Thank you

We found this condo to be a very enjoyable place to stay. The location was very convenient for seeing the sights around the Kona area. The best feature is the view down the grassy garden area to the ocean. The grounds are nicely landscaped and the complex is very quiet and well maintained. The kitchen is well stocked and equipped with everything you will need. We liked that the unit was on the main level for easy access to and from the parking lot.
