We love this condo! It’s so cozy and great to return to after a day in the sun. This is the second time we have stayed in this condo and 4th time we have stayed at Kona Makai! We love it and will definitely be back! This place has everything you could need to make a dinner in and have a cozy night or is very close to a lot of great restaurants! We love just being able to stay in the condo and make food and relax after a fun day. Highly
Recommend.

This room felt cozy with the clean fresh carpet and huge fluffy couch. The bed was extremely comfortable and the pillows and sheets were great quality. It was nice to have everything we needed and even things we didn't know we needed, like an additional fan, fun beach equipment, and a cooler! The view was insanely beautiful . Perfect location, easy walk to the shops. There is even a trolly down the road that comes every hour if you don't want to walk as far. The landscape is picture perfect. I have stayed in several other rooms at Kona Makai, all of which are absolutely lovely. This room just felt more homey. I will be returning for sure.

AC broke. Well, we arrived and it never got cool so I'm going to say it never worked. We slept one sweaty night and realized we could text someone about the issue. They got right back to us and we had new AC units by that afternoon in the bedroom and also in the living room. The rest of the stay was very comfortable and I was so grateful someone got back to us and resolved the issue. This is what I'll remember. But also, everything was nice, clean, and comfortable :)

Thanks Susan! It makes our day to hear that we were able to provide you 5-star service. We’ll make sure the entire team at Knutson & Associates receives your feedback - they’ll be thrilled to hear your kind words.

The property was so beautiful and well maintained. The unit was a bit on the older side but very clean and well maintained. We loved that it was on the first floor, no having to log everything up a. Inch of stairs but we still had a view of the ocean from our lanai. We could not ever get the moving area a/c to flow cold air, but the bedroom one worked really well and that’s really all that mattered to us.

We rented the one bedroom apartment for a full week and had an amazing time! It had everything we needed, even if a few features felt outdated, all were full functional. The sofa was what I like to call a couch hole, something so good you NEVER want to leave. We used the free books, the pool and hot tub, and walked down to the rocky coast several times. The bed was great, place was clean, and I wish we'd grilled out, but we aren't cooks lol.

The staff was amazing. Quick responses to questions, and maintenance came same day for one weird noise we were hearing (turns out was a different unit lol!) And got it all sorted quickly.

Would go back in a heartbeat.

The condo is average. Price was ok. People are friendly around the pool and lounge area. The only odd thing I thought was the amount of consumables. I didn’t plan on going on vacation and having to buy toilet paper, garbage bags, aluminum foil, spices, etc...Talking with other owners all that is provided. Pots and pans are very outdated as-well. I’m not really complaining just saying little things like that matter to a person who’s on vacation not running errands for basic household necessities.

A nice updated unit, ground floor amid beautiful, mature landscaping. Geckos on the lanai provided entertainment! Only glitch was the dishwasher door not closing properly and an under sink water alarm that woke everyone up at 5am on our last day. Kona Makai is an aging property - this unit is the exception.

Thank you for the review and feedback! We are so sorry to hear about the sink water alarm; we will make sure to get this looked at! We do hope you enjoyed your stay otherwise, and are glad to know our little lizard friends were enjoyable company!

Great stay as usual. Right on the ocean front so you'll enjoy sunsets most every night. Quiet and comfortable and close to town. From the driveway to the front edge of town is one mile and the another .25 miles to the farmers market. Add another .25 and you are at the sea wall for more shops and dinning places.
The Kona Makai grounds are also in fantastic shape but the exercise rooms could use updated equipment. Our unit was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Only steps from the waters edge but it too could use a little TLC.

We loved staying at this condo in the Kona-Makai complex! Airy, comfortably furnished, and with a fully fitted out kitchen with dishes, cookware, spices and more. We loved waking up in the mornings to the songs of beautiful birds, fixing delicious protein shakes (blender provided) with fresh farm stand mango, apple bananas and coconut milk. Then, going outside on the lanai to enjoy the ocean view, surrounded by gorgeous tropical plants and flowers, sipping a cup of the locally purchased and freshly roasted Kona coffee (prepared in the provided French Press pot). For dinner you could find us cooking up some delicious Ona, Mahi Mahi or shrimp on the open grills near the ocean, swimming in the refreshing salt-water pool, and watching gorgeous sunsets, followed by stargazing. Magical. Snorkeling and other beach gear are provided, which we made good use of at local beach parks, some within walking distance. Close to town, great restaurants and “The Green Flash” coffee house, there was much fun to be had in open air bars with live music and delicious seafood! The condo was very clean, the bed was so comfortable, the grounds impeccably maintained, the BBQ, outdoor tables and chairs clean and easy to access. I highly recommend you stay here!

This was our most unusual trip to the Big Island for the two decades we have visited. The first four days were idyllic, then the Island was shut down as a covid-19 response. This condo and condo complex proved the best place to be quarantined. The condo was wonderful, the complex was beautifully maintained and the residents were very friendly. We had everything we needed and felt quite at home there. The Knutson folks were very accommodating and helpful as well.

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for your understanding and kind review under such unusual circumstances. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Kona Makai 2102! We hope to have a chance to host you again in the future when you may be able to explore more of what this glorious island holds.

We sincerely apologize you felt this way about the service. The owners of the property have specific instructions to us to only use the vendors they so prefer. This was the earliest availability the vendor had and we apologize about this. Respectfully, Knutson & Associates Management

Very comfortable, clean and had everything we needed to cook a few dinners. The location was near the pool and driving or walking to town was convenient.

Our start was short as we were celebrating our anniversary and just live on the otherside of the Big Island. We have stayed at this complex before and love the location. This unit was a short 1 minute walk to the water. Great place to start a morning with a cup of coffee. The complex sits just outside of the business of Kona, so it was quite. You can hear the ocean. It was nice.

The condo was clean and the condition of the condo was okay. The air conditioner was broken and the maintenance department never returned my calls about it. Blake did call me and apologized for them not calling for 2 weeks. He also sent over someone to replace the light bulbs that were burned out.

Manager's Response

Aloha Lori,

It was great meeting you in person. The air conditioner has been replaced! We apologize again about the miscommunication about you expecting a call back. It was a misunderstanding on my assistants end. Thank you so much for staying with us.

Our rental was perfect for our small group. The condo was nicely decorated, furniture was comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. There were even coolers and ice packs which we used to take food with us as we traveled around the island. The kids liked using the boogie boards that were also provided. The only issue we had was the air conditioner being on a timer so you had to keep getting up at night to turn it back on.

We were very pleased with our stay at KM 2-102. The condo was clean, well kept, and with a gorgeous view! The condo had everything we needed, towels, beach towels, boogie boards, noodles, an umbrella for the beach, along with other convenient items you wouldn't expect from an overpriced resort. The condo was stocked with enough paper products to start off the trip so save your money and drive up the street to Walmart for your extra supplies, ABC stores are pricey on everyday items. The pool is clean and sits right by the ocean, love it for the days we didn't want to drive up to Hapuna Beach, but it's definitely worth the 40 min drive, best beach we went to by far! They have BBQ grills and chairs out by the ocean so you have a perfect spot to watch the sunset. The grounds are kept up immaculately and the grounds crew were very friendly! Perfect spot for our vacation! If we come back to the Big Island, we will stay again!

Everything in this condo is exactly as shown so we knew what to expect. We picked this condo building because we wanted to be close enough to town to walk and we wanted something ocean front. As most people say the grounds are beautiful everywhere! Sitting ocean front in the lounge chairs and using the barbeques we met many great people and it made the experience even better. My husband is a good swimmer and snorkeled many times right out front and was near dolphins and a manta ray too! Anytime we sat in the lounge chairs in the morning we saw dolphins swimming by and jumping around. The condo had everything we needed and dealing with Knutson when booking was great. Also we contacted them while there when the toilet leaked and they sent a plumber right away to fix it to prevent any damage. You need to be aware that if you leave food out you will get tiny ants right away. Also we would have liked the bedroom to be cooler. It was usually pretty warm for sleeping and the fans just didn't help much and the air conditioner is on a timer. Overall had a great experience and would definitely stay here again.

A beautiful complex, great pool and other amenities. The unit was listed as being updated but the bathroom taps especially the tub unit needs replacing. Also, huge furniture in a small unit do not add appeal and make it crowded. I would like to eat in the unit at a table which was not possible. The kitchen has the cheapest cupboards possile. Not impressive.

OMG!! One of the best vacations we have ever had. And we have been to Kona many times over the last 10 yrs. What made this trip extraordinary was where we stayed. The condo we rented had a great view as well as acsess to the water to go snorkeling as well as BBQ right at the "edge" of the beautiful coastline. Loved that we could relax in lounge chairs right at the water front. Wi-wi worked great. good location to town. Thank you for providing a place for us!! Already recommend this place to my co-workers. This message is from Barbara Smith with my husband agreeing with it all. We hope to book further vacations through you!! Thank you for a wonderful experience!! Looking forward to being able to "rent " from you again!!

This was a very good place to stay, not tofar from anything I did not rent a car so I did a lot of walking, the beaches and resterants were only a short 10 minute away. The only problem i had was when I first arrived and had a little trouble opening the door, there was a trick to it and after the first time there were not any more problems. All in all I had a very good time and I would strongly recomend this property to anyone.

I would definitely recommend it!

I stayed at this unit in Kona Makai and had a very pleasant experience:
The reservation process was very smooth and the agent was very responsive to all my questions
The price was very reasonable given the amenities and the location of the unit and property
The Unit had everything we needed for a confortable stay including a fully equipped kitchen, a washer and dryer, . As well as all you need for the beach including body boards, beach towels, a beach chair, a cooler
The complex is well located, has a nice pool and Jacuzzi, a beautiful and well maintained garden, a ping pong table and several BBQs as well as front seats to a beautiful sunset each evening

I love Kona Makai and this is one of the better units.

We were able to observe beautiful sunsets from the lanai and enjoy a peaceful breakfast every morning surrounded by a wonderful lush garden, singing birds, and sounds of the ocean waves. The location is central to everything so it was very convenient for all of our shopping, sight seeing, dining, and activities. Our unit was well stocked with everything imaginable so we saved money on renting beach chairs & boogie boards. Mahalo for a wonderful time.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kona Makai the grounds are gorgeous and the view is great! We saw many whales and spinner dolphins while lounging in the common/pool area. The condo is cute and located a good distance from down town Alli drive. Kona is fabulous!! The condo bathroom and window ledges need a little more TLC with cleaning, but it was a nice touch to have extra beach towels, sunscreen and a boogie board there to use.
I would go back any time :)!!
