Excellent stay
Marie-Eve B., Blotzheim, FR
L appartement est tout à fait conforme à la description. Il est propre, très bien agencé et très bien équipé. Lave linge et sèche linge dans l'appartmenet, siège de plage, glacière, tout était a disposition. Le lit était très confortable. La terrasse permet de prendre son petit déjeuner avec une vue mer. La communication avec l'agence était facile. L'emplacement est idéal pour la visite de l'ile.

Amazing Ocean View & Beautiful Sunsets
Recent Guest, Riverbank, CA United States
We absolutely love Kona Makai. This was a last-minute trip, and we usually try to book ocean front but found this little gem available. You could totally see the water and the amazing sunsets from the lanai. A little 30 second walk to the ocean front if you preferred to see it from there. The room was INCREDIBLE, and the property is immaculate. The remodel was stellar - honestly this was one of the nicest rooms we have ever stayed in across all our trips to Hawaii. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would definitely recommend this room to friends and family if looking for a room that is less pricey than a true oceanfront. Also need to give 5 plus stars to Knutson and Team - we have booked with them multiple times and the service and check in is top notch! They really want your stay to be perfect! Mahalo for being part of an amazing week for us!
Manager's Response
Aloha Denise! Thank you for taking the time to leave a positive review. We're so happy to hear you had a great experience at Kona Makai. Your review made our day!

Beautiful Condo and location
Lorenzo F., Adligenswil, NA CH
It was great staying here. The area is quiet, clean and close to the shore.
The condo was large for our family of 3, and we had all the needed tools, more than enough actually.
Loved enjoying the breakfast on the large balcony, BBQing at the shore, using the very clean pool.
I can only recommend this place, if you’re looking for somewhere to stay with quiet, close to nice sandy beaches, close to the center of Kailua, and so well equipped.
Manager's Response
Aloha Lorenzo, you don’t know how much your fantastic feedback means to us here at Knutson & Associates. Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Many short visits and Hawaii is still the best.
Recent Guest, Thorsby, AB Canada
Information to be included with reservation and not by text!!! Posted within complex:
" Information regarding departure guest clean-up."
Now we are expected to do almost all cleaning. Wipe down glass tables etc. fridge stove etc. Remove all garbage and bottles. No definition for what is "Too Much " for housekeeper.
Insulting to consumers who pay inflated cleaning fees.
AS A CONSUMER- I expect furniture to be sanitized, free of debris, stains on cloth furniture and cushion covers, rugs cleaned of stains, shower curtain washed and no food behind stove, dryer vent cleaned and wall stains from insects removed. M & G of Thorsby

Beautiful Apartment
Robert K., Sacramento, CA US
We stayed at Kona Makai for a recent Big Island family vacation. The apartment was bright and airy, well stocked with essentials. The property grounds were well maintained and beautiful. Property management company was very communicative and helpful, and minor maintenance issues quickly handled. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Kona Makai 2nd time around
Recent Guest, Foxfield, CO US
Nicely remodeled unit.
Very nice remodeled unt.From the living room, bathroom and the bedroom, top notch. We thought it was quite spacious.. Have only one suggestion. We believe a table lamp on the east end of the couch would be a plus. We brought the lamp from the veranda in. Worked well for tv time. That is it. Thanks.

Aloha Frederick, you don’t know how much your fantastic feedback means to us here at Knutson & Associates. Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Paradise Disrupted
Frank H., Seattle, WA US
Everything was quite satisfactory until I woke to concrete demolition on an adjacent deck which later in the week was on our deck. The racket broke to peace and quiet of sitting on our lanai. We had no warning and no offer of adjustments. Otherwise quite nice.
Manager's Response
So very sorry that the construction crew disrupted your stay. Unfortunately, we didn't have any control of when and where they were working next.
We really liked it!

Two weeks Kona vacation
Recent Guest, Las Vegas, NV United States
Our experience started on the wrong footing when we first step into the condo. I had to make calls to the manager immediately requesting assistance. The manager was great in responding to our calls. All the issues were remedied by the next day. The unit was very nice with great view of the ocean from the lanai. We ate most of our meals there. The kitchen was a bit tight. Otherwise the rest of the unit was quite comfortable. AC units worked great. Didn't have to run it very long to cool down the entire unit. The water pressure in the shower was good. We enjoyed the condo and the grounds were well kept. Very pleasant stay.
Manager's Response

Simply amazing!
Jocelyn B., VARENNES, QC CA
We simply had an amazing stay. The condo itself has got so much to offer. It’s vast, clean, filled with amenities and the balcony overlooking the courtyard is a real gem. We could ramble on and on but instead will simply say that we would not hesitate a second to go back. If you choose this unit, you will not be disappointed. Thank you again.

recreativevacation rental
Walter F., MĂ¼nchen, NA DE
We loved this vacation rental, because it was very quiet situated, had a wonderful garden, was large and well equipped. The management was helpful. But the booking could be done easier, as we experienced in other similar condos: less mails (we got all twice from Knudson and ), some several times, a signment of a rental agreement we had in no other case and this was stressful for us, the download of an extra app we think is not necessary, a mail with the entrance codes one or two days before would be satisfying.
Manager's Response
Aloha Walter, thank you so much for staying with us!

Lovely Grounds!
Petra C., Regina, SK CA
We stayed 10 days in this condo. The condo itself is a bit dated, but clean and offers everything you need for your stay in Kona. Beach items were provided which is a must for your adventures to nearby beaches and snorkel locations. The property managers were awesome to deal with and responded quickly to any inquiries we had. The grounds of this complex are very nice and very quiet.

Aloha Petra, we’re happy to hear that our team provided you with excellent service. I’ll make sure that they receive your feedback. I’m sure it will make their day.
17 days at Kona Makai
Recent Guest, evergreen, CO US
Generally very pleasant. Good location and property. Well laid out. Two minor things for the mgmt company vs Airbnb or vrbo experiences; too few consumables for longer stays (tp, paper towel, trash bags, etc) as these are not available in the small quantities needed, and paperwork is way over the top in your rental process.
Very nice.
Rich H., Dalton Gardens, ID US
Clean, comfortable condo. The Kona Makai complex is beautiful. Watching sunsets from the pool area was a joy.
Manager's Response
Aloha Rich, you don’t know how much your fantastic feedback means to us here at Knutson & Associates. Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Beautiful Property, Clean and Quiet
Karen C., Boulder City, NV US
This was our first trip to Hawaii and our stay at Kona Makai started out with a couple of problems but ended perfectly. When we first arrived we could not get the lockbox open, but after calling Knutson & Associates, we had the problem solved within the hour. The other issue was guests in the unit below who were constantly smoking and filled our unit with smoke. This was also quickly resolved with help from Don, the property manager. Other than that, unit 3203 was perfect; clean, well-stocked with kitchen items, beach gear, towels, linens and had a beautiful view of the ocean from the lanai. We especially loved the gorgeous sunset views each evening while we were grilling our dinner out by the beautiful pool!
Manager's Response
Aloha Karen, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry your check-in experience didn’t match your expectations. It is an uncommon instance and we’ll do better in the future. We are glad the resident manager was able to solve the smoking issue for you and thrilled to hear that you enjoyed at Kona Makai, otherwise. Please feel free to reach out to us at 808.329.1010. With any further comments, concerns, or suggestions you wish to share. We would love to make things right if you give us another chance. Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Great place to stay!!
Angela Lorraine P., Seattle, NA US
It was an amazing location very close to several beaches, outdoor shopping markets, and tons of restaurants! The condo was very clean and had everything we needed for cooking in! The washer and dryer are small but perfect when all you need to wash is your beach stuff!
Manager's Response
Aloha Angela! 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. Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Kona Makai Stay
Recent Guest, Strathmore, AB CA
First time staying at this place, we liked the location, grounds are beautiful and the view from unit was as promised. We would not book again in this unit, the old carpet bothered my asthma...,or at least that’s what I think it was. Bathroom Reno is nice but overall we felt the unit was old & tired. It was surface clean, but it obviously needs a good cleaning behind stuff. A little short on supplies for a 10 day stay.
Manager's Response
Thank you for the review, and feedback! We do sincerely apologize over these issues; we do allow our housekeepers an extra day to clean all units before arrivals, to ensure their cleanliness for your stay. However, we will bring these issues to the owners attention, and do appreciate your feedback. We also do provide a starter pack for your stay, which is intended only to provide you with supplies for the first few days. We do hope you enjoyed your stay otherwise, and were able to enjoy our beautiful island!

Overall nice place!
Recent Guest, Sammamish, WA US
The property itself was 5 stars! Loved it. It was well maintained, the location was great, and there was plenty of parking. It was fun to hike around the lava rocks on the ocean and to sit and watch the beautiful sunsets, then jump in the Jacuzzi and relax. The unit was also nice. Clean and well stocked with towels, etc. The two downfalls are with the bedding and the A.C. The A.C was in the form of 2 wall units, which were quite loud. They worked fine but had to run pretty constantly while we were in the unit, including at night. We got used to the noise, but would have preferred a quieter unit. The pillows were as cheap as they come, and the bed actually smelled stale and old. The smell was subtle and we got used to it, but could not get used to the pillows. The bed itself was comfortable. Overall, I would consider staying here again, but I would want to bring my own pillows to spare the neck pain.
Manager's Response
Thank you so much for the review, and feedback! We will make sure to bring up the issue of the AC to the owners, and see about replacing bedsheets and pillows. We do hope that you enjoyed your stay otherwise, and apologize again for those inconveniences! We hope to see you again in the future.
Clean, homey and near the ocean
KEN B., Carson City, NV US
This condo was clean and nicely furnished. The general property is beautiful, with a wonderful seating, bbq, dining, pool area right on the ocean It is not near a beach, but we enjoyed walking on the lava rocks, exploring the tidepools, watching the sunsets and snorkeling just steps away. Of course, watch the ocean conditions. On days when the ocean is not rough, this is some of the best snorkeling on the island.

Great condo and location
Pamela L., Vancouver, WA United States
I was very pleased with my first stay at Kona Makai 3-203. Everything was as described and the instructions for arrival were perfectly described, I had no issues. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, the lovely garden view from the deck and the lounge chairs by the ocean. The property is well maintained, good location, gated entry, no complaints. I couldn't see or hear traffic from this unit. I would stay here again for sure.

Comfortable unkt in great location
Mark B., Mill Creek, WA United States
This was our second time staying in this unit. We returned again because we like the location and the fact that the veranda faces north allowing us to sit in the shade while units across from this one are in the hot sun all day . Everything was in working order and the owner added some new fans which allowed us to stay cool and make the AC unit work better. Will return next year. Thank you.
Manager's Response
We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and find the unit to your liking overall. We very much look forward to hosting you again next year!
Property at Kona Makai 3-203
Recent Guest, Bastrop, TX United States
I loved every minute of our stay at this condo. It is a perfect size for two people. I loved all the homey touches, including the padded chairs, lounge, rocker and especially the stressfree recliner and ottoman. This is a place for relaxing! We ate almost all our meals on the lanai so we could hear and watch the birds and the waves. I am a plant lover and the grounds around this condo are incredibly lush-like a mini botanical garden. And I loved sitting in front of the ocean each evening to watch the sunset. A very enjoyable experience and I would return in a heartbeat if I have the chance.

Comfortable unit in great location
Mark B., Mill Creek, WA United States
Perfect location in Kona Makai in that the lanai off the living room was in the shade all day which allowed us to spend as much time as we wanted on 80+ degree days. King bed comfortable, kitchen with every appliance (big and small) that one could want although we used very few electing to go out for dinners and eat breakfast and lunch in the unit. Grounds well maintained and landscaping beautiful. Cell phone calls not allowed on lanais so sitting outside was very quiet and peaceful. Only inconvenience was having only one key to the unit which I addressed with the property management company. A key is required to get in and out of the pool area so a second key should be made available. Didn't use the small fitness rooms (there are two). Plenty of parking on site and wagons available for taking groceries, etc. from your car to the stairway below the unit, as most units do not have vehicle access to the units. Liked being on the second floor with some ocean view. If we are unable to secure the unit we normally stay in when we visit the Big Island, we would definitely check on the availability of this unit. Pleasant stay. Excellent advance communication from Property Management.company Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay at Kona Makai. The unit was clean and well-stocked and a great location.
Great Accommodations
Michael A S., Mountain View, HI United States
We had a pleasant stay and would consider coming back. We live in Mountain View and would love a local rate so we could come more often. Everything was provided.
Perfect in every way!
Tracey A., Winnipeg, MB Canada
I couldn't have asked for anything more. My vacation rental was clean and well equipped for my stay with a few extra essentials provided. Well located and quiet with a view of the dolphins in the morning.
Paradise!

The condo was in excellent condition with a beautiful ocean view from the lanai.

Gordon W., Snohomish, WA United States
Great partial ocean view condo in Kona Makai complex. Well furnished, clean and spacious condo. Price was good for time of year (Jan 2018). We would consider returning to this complex and unit.
Good condo. Great location
Recent Guest, san francisco, CA United States
Very good location. The room was very clean. All necessary things were in the condo. Additional, beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, all basic needs for a great beach time was there.
Ocean front property, so just a small walk from the apartment to the ocean and you can watch yellow tangs

Great buy for the buck...
Deborah A., Worley, ID United States
The conco was as shown. It's small, but sufficient, clean, and well maintained. WE picked this condo because of the price and location. We figured we weren't going to be there all that often.
Pleasantly surprised. The grounds were fabulous...(Always workers around caring for the property). I actually think the pictures could be better. The barbeque area is right next to the water, and we spent a lot of time around the area meeting other couples and enjoying the sound of the surf...
The condo is very well stocked with anything you need to cook. It was clean and well supplied with toiletries. It was perfect.
Our only constructive criticism is finding the location of the conddo. Late at night, the property location was easy. But building 3 is not. The layout can be confusing. An owner came in and helped orient us. Friendly people...
We will go there again. We have more diving and exploring to do... Thanks to the owners
Great location and view.
Lee M., ARVADA, NA us
This Rental is well equipped,everything is just like the pictures show. Also there are Tommy Bahama beach chairs and a very good quality boogie board.
Great location short drive to restaurants and shopping. Short drive to Magic sands beach and Kahaluu Bay. Magic Sands is great for swimming and boogie boarding, Kahaluu Bay is a great snorkeling spot especially for beginners.
We also snorkeled right there at the condo, its a little tricky getting in and out of the water there, but there were tons of fish and we saw a couple turtles, we were there in late june and water was calm, don't try it if there are big waves.
Grounds around the complex are clean and well maintained, parking was easy and they had wagons for you to put your luggage in to get it the stairs leading to the condo.
I enjoyed going out in the mornings and running down the coast along Alli drive,you can run south for several miles, if you like running.
Room temperature was fine for us a/c was adequate.
We would stay here again !

Nice Condo

Nice condo. Clean,but smelled a bit musty in kitchen. Beautiful grounds, pool, BBQs and lava ocean front for great sunsets. Good location - could walk into Kona (about 15-20 mn walk). Condo had coolers, beach chairs and beach umbrella, as well as washer and dryer. Very handy.

Really hard to find building at midnight in the dark. Very little lighting and the numbers on the door needs to be larger (not a quarter of an inch high)

Spacious lanai
Patricia V., Portland, OR United States
We really enjoyed unit 3-203. The size was larger than other vacation rentals in our past, with a very spacious lanai - rather than a narrow balcony. The grounds are spotless and the birds were plenty. Loved their songs.

The location was perfect. We could snorkel right off the front of the complex and were able to walk into town. The only downfall was the internet was not very strong and you needed to be on the lanai to use it.

Brianne B., Seattle, WA United States
This condo was absolutely perfect for our vacation needs. Not only was booking through Knutson easy and efficient, but they really helped make sure we were in a condo that fit our budget and worked with us to do so. Right when we walked in we felt at home in this condo. It was very clean, and the view from the lanai was gorgeous. The grounds are very well maintained. We had no issues with any appliances or fixtures and everything worked well and went smoothly. Because Kona (The big island in general) does not have a ton of sandy resort style beaches available for laying out/beach activities, we wanted to make sure we stayed in a prime location that was close to other activities. It was a 2 hr drive to amazing hiking and a little over 3 hours to the volcano. The best part about the location though was the small town vibe of the surrounding area; close to the Kona Brewery, shopping (a Sunday street fair) and great restaurants! We did find a beach down the road, magic sands beach, but it was very small and overcrowded and we stayed less than half an hour.
We already want to go back to Kona Makai! If you are looking for a cozy and comfortable home base for you to come back to once you are finished with a day of exploring, or a nice relaxing place to layout by the pool or in front of the ocean (breath taking rocky shoreline), then book this condo!

Donna K., United States
well first off the condo looked nice but after being there for a day we found that both air conditioners were broken, the shower flooded, the water alarm went off (didn't even know what that was) took awhile to figure how to turn it off, the dvd player did not work and we were GIVEN A WARNING for using our cell phones on the lani didn't know the rules, none were put in the condo and the rules were on a wall on one of the buildings didn't see them until leaving
Manager's Response
Aloha Donna!
It was a pleasure having you stay at the Kona Makai 3-203. I remember speaking with you on the phone about these concerns. We have replaced both air conditioners, just so everyone knows the good news! We're sorry they were broken when you were there.
The water alarm is a security measure that Kona Makai has to prevent flooding from affecting other units. We looked into the shower, and this should not happen again. We cleared the drain. We are replacing the DVD player, thank you for letting us know! Every guest is instructed to register with the resident manager on site, where the house rules are provided. We apologize you were inconvenienced by onsite management informing you of the rules. We do hope you will provide us another opportunity to exceed your expectations. Mahalo!

Kona condo review
Judy C., Concord, California United States
It was easy to get this done online and we generally liked the place. I have 3 concerns:1. less than half a roll of toilet paper with no back up in the conco. 2. Stained and worn towels that need to be replaced. 3. Need better path lighting at night. Very dark and they water at night so the path is wet. just add some more closer spaced lights and all will be fine. We enjoyed the location and the kitchen was well supplied.
Thanks,
Great stay

My husband and I recently stayed at 3-203 in the Kona Makai and had a spectacular vacation. The grounds are immaculately kept, the location is superb and it's a very peaceful & tranquil environment. No loud neighbors, lights out earlier so you can get a great sleep. The room has everything you need to feel at home. We loved our stay and would definitely come back.

Kona Makai is definitely a great value. We were able to walk to town in the morning enjoy the beautifully landscaped Kona Makai Property in the day and enjoy a beautiful sunset with the ocean waves crashing right in front of us while barbecuing our fresh Kona caught fish. We will return!
Fantastic

My husband and I had stayed at Kona Makai 3-203 in June 2012 for a week. There is conveniently located on Alii Drive, but very quiet. We've never heard any traffic.
The room has two lanais. The main lanai was overlooking the ocean and a beautiful garden with tropical landscaping. Having meals at lanai was very relaxing. We listened to the birds singing every morning.
The building is dated, but kept clean well arranged and have good amenities including an electric griddle, rice cooker and a ton of towels.
The pool and jacuzzi seemed newly remodeled which was very nice.
Overall, it was a great stay for the price. we definitely to love to stay Kona Makai again.

We stayed at Kona Makai one week and we found all what we need. The place is great. We could enjoy a beautiful pool and fantastic sunset view.
There were no any sounds besides birds' songs and murmur of the surf.
All condo area looks as a tropical botanical garden.

Took a little while to get wi-fi key and cleanliness wasn't perfect (although I have VERY high standards). Overall, we thought this was very good value for money and we would recommend to others.

Kona Makai is a nice, quiet complex... nothing exceptional, but in a good location on the water, not far from town, not far from the beaches. The unit itself was clean and comfortable, and the people at Knutson were friendly and helpful. All in all, a good experience.
A Great Place to Stay...

Love the resort (fabulous grounds), loved the unit - not great ocean view, but not bad, and good overall location. Kitchen better equipped than many. Knutson got us a great deal and dealt quickly with some appliance repairs.
This unit was a perfect fit for my family's needs. It was clean and well maintained. It came fully stocked with extra towels, bedding and dishes. The ceiling fans were a big plus so that we didn't need to use the A/C. There was a nice garden and ocean view from the lanai with beautiful sunsets. We walked into town several times to browse and shop. We would definitely stay here again.
