Nearby Activities in Kailua Kona

Kailua-Kona, the Heart of Hawaii is on the west side of the Big Island. Sometimes referred to just as "Kona", this historic fishing village has transformed into a tourist hot spot. In fact, the west coast of the Big Island is referred to as the "Kona Side", and it is known for its white sand beaches, lush golf courses, and historic parks. If you are looking for your ideal Hawaiian getaway, set your sights on a Kailua-Kona beach house rental and spend a few days enjoying Hawaii the way it is meant to be seen.

Things To Do in Kailua Kona

A Perfect Day at the Beach When you step out of your Kailua Kona beach house and head for the sand, you will be on your way to the perfect beach experience, no matter what time of year you visit Kona. This is because the normal temperature fluctuation for the island is only seven degrees between the hottest and coldest days of the year (from 74 degrees Fahrenheit in February to 81 degrees in August). And because Kailua-Kona is on the leeward side of the Hualalai Volcano, this region is.. read more

"Beautiful Views
This unit is perfect for a family of four. AC in all areas of the condo. The unit is stocked with alll your basic needs for cooking and heading out to the beach for the day. "

"#3-302
Very pleased with the condo and the service. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking and as the property management. They were a pleasure to work with and the condo was Great. Views were good, amenities were good, contact was perfect. Never had I had this kind of great experience."

"Kona Makai Stay
The apartment was in a good location, however, there were not many other positives.

Before our stay I was asked to sign an over the top waiver and the cleaning fee increased despite already being booked and paid for. The condition of the property was poor, it was at least a decade overdue a renovation. The carpet was stained all through the apartment and furniture tired and tatty. The bath filled when showering and took a long time to drain. The safety gate lock on the mezzanine level was broken.

It was described as gorgeous on the description but it really was in need of a complete renovation. "
Jul 16, 2024 - Neil S., Hazelbrook, NSW



"Great location
So close to the ocean and downtown Kona; not far from main roads on island. The home was quiet, clean, and comfortable. If I ever go back to Hawaii, I would rent again!"
May 16, 2024 - , SD, SD



"Great Amenities
Our stay at Kona Makai was a perfect getaway with wonderful accommodations, responsive communication from ownership And close to old town Kona. Highly recommended for all the sites on that part of the island, easy in and out along with great views of the ocean and wonderful lava rock beach. Can’t wait to come back!"
May 15, 2024 - , los angeles, CA



"Great Place
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We were grateful to find an affordable place to stay that accommodated 6 people. We enjoyed being right on the ocean. The property is well taken care of. The unit is a little dated but clean and stocked. We traveled with three children so we prepped them regarding the complex rules and common areas. I have stayed many different places on the BI and this was one of the best! Would stay again."
Mar 31, 2024 - Valerie P., Worland, WY



"Feels like my Hawaiian Second Home
The overall experience for this rental was amazing! The place was clean, had pretty well everything we needed for the week, and the communication with the rental company was seamless!.

We really liked that this property is away from the busier area, as you aren’t fighting traffic every time you go back and forth to places."

"Lovely Stay
Nice property in a great location. "
Nov 15, 2023 - , Kaysville, UT



"Thoroughly enjoyable stay
Our rented accommodation was even better than expected. Very comfortable in every way, including beds, fans, air con, sofas, balcony comfort. It had everything we could have needed and the washing machine and tumble dryer were appreciated. Lovely view from the balcony. Well kept grounds which were beautiful with plants and flowers. Pool well maintained and really enjoyable to be in. Would highly recommend."

"Fantastic!
Incredible. Truly an amazing experience thanks to the care and attentiveness yet not invasive attention, Knutson and associates provided us with. It was a wonderful time. "
Apr 07, 2023 - Kristopher O., Colorado Springs, CO



"A Great Place to Stay!
This unit was perfect for our family of 4. Our kids, 12 and 14, loved the loft. The ladder is very steep so not suitable for young children. We enjoyed eating breakfast and dinner on the lanai. You can see the ocean when standing and sitting in one spot. If they had a higher table, bar height, the view would be better. We watched the sunset every night from the hot tub and pool, sometimes having the whole pool to ourselves. This condo is more suited for older children as kids under 14 are not allowed in the hot tub and strict rules for playing and splashing in the pool. We enjoyed not having a lot of young children around, very quiet and peaceful. The condo is in a great location to drive either north or south. You do need to drive at least 20-40 minutes to get to the nice white sand beaches. We didn't mind though, we drove around the entire island. Kona is close and you could walk, but we always drove as it was too hot to walk along the road. There wasn't much for beach supplies, no chairs or proper cooler, but we made do with what we had. Kitchen was well stock with everything you need. Family also enjoyed playing ping pong and tennis. The property management company was great to deal with, very responsive. We would totally stay here again!"

"Kona makai 3 302
Nice location, but, need huge clean up- I mean carpet, wall , ceiling. I clean the bathroom fan stuck in the 1/2 inches dust. ... also the owner did not respect the contract prices"
Feb 26, 2023 - Sylvain G., Morin-Heights, QC



"Amazing sunsets
Condo was as expected, and the location is beautiful. The property managers were proactive and quickly solved any issues at hand. Sunsets from the waterfront were a trip highlight. The only downside was the negative tone at Kona Makai set by 15 signs at the pool starting with “No”, long lists of “No” including pickleball on the mostly empty tennis courts, and long term residents calling management for every perceived infraction, like a towel hung on the rail of the lanai. "
Jan 29, 2023 - Amy S., Wasilla, AK



"Great View and responsive staff
We enjoyed a wonderful time at Kona Makai. Knutson and Associates staff were responsive to our inquires, fixed a squeaky toilet and helped us resolve an issue on checkout. Nothing beats a waterfront complex with a unit that has views from both lanais. Multiple air conditioning units kept us nice and cool. "
Jan 19, 2023 - Jada K., Juneau, AK



"Perfect place for a family vacation
This condo was a great place for us. It has much more of a down home feel than the newer resorts. Though the lay out was better than the more expensive places too. We loved grilling by the pool, which is also right by the ocean, watching dolphins from our patio, and the frequent sightings of geckos both outside and in!"
Nov 24, 2022 - paul d.



"A great place to stay
We enjoyed our stay here. The property is right on the water. Nice place to watch the sunset and the other occupants/tenants were friendly. The pool and jacuzzi were delightful. A few things I wish I knew before renting here. There's no coffee, you have to buy your own and there IS a hair dryer. The bathroom could definitely use some updating but that in no way affected our stay. I'm sure that sort of thing is important to some, but we just loved it and it was perfect for us. "
Nov 01, 2022 - Tiffany J., Pomona, CA



"Successful Stay
I enjoyed my time in Hawaii and was pleased with the property that we rented. I loved the pool. The view of the sunset by the pool area was amazing!"

Beautiful "

"Kona Makai 3-302
Love the Kona Makai condo's! Great location, beautiful setting. First time in this condo. Very well set up, but did have a few minor issues. Ice maker in Refrigerator didn't work and no ice cube trays provided; blender didn't work; lovely selection of wine glasses, but no wine bottle opener; nice coffee maker, but would have been nice to have a few filters supplied. Since we were only there for 5 days, these items would have been appreciated. Otherwise, the place was great to stay in. Loft area was great for our granddaughter."
May 04, 2022 - Cheryl M., Bend, OR



"Great place to stay!
Clean, well equipped. Love the Hawaiian decor and nice view from the lanai for morning coffee or evening cocktails..Pool and BBQ overlooking ocean was awesome. "
Dec 01, 2021 - , Las Vegas, NV



"Partial ocean view from Lani/Third floor comfortable condo
Nice place to stay, comfortable with a very limited view of the ocean from the Lanai, no ice trays or ice-maker. Knutson quickly provided beach towels and missing batteries for TV remote when notified. Easy check-in."
Nov 08, 2021 - Haitham H., Grants Pass, OR



"First Stay in Kona
Great condo development. The grounds are amazing. The unit and the appliances are dated but clean. I visited other units in the same complex that were updated and much nicer, so I guess it depends on the relative price difference. The TV did not work. One of the two air conditioners did not work but the management company has a portable air conditioner installed as a temporary replacement which worked well. However, the portable used a lot of the limited countertop space. If you have children, I noticed the hot tub was limited to those over 12. It is a 1.5-mile easy walk to downtown Kona. "
Feb 12, 2021 - Thomas J., Spokane, WA



"Amazing rental!
This rental was the perfect location, and had an amazing pool! The kitchen was FULLY stocked, as well as the linen closet. We had a couple of issues during our stay, but the management team bent over backwards to make things right. The unit was very clean and the king size bed was delightful! Would definitely recommend this unit to everyone!"

"Kona Makai 3-302 Stay Review
Good value for staycation. Nice View. Condo kitchen was very well equipped.
The unit is very far from parking and no elevator to the 3rd floor.
Seemed very dated overall. "
Dec 04, 2020 - , Kailua Kona, HI



"Just Fine
Kona Makai 3-302 served my needs. A lovely gift basket greeted me. A bit of an ocean view. No elevator so be prepared to go up 3 floors of stairs. Plenty of fans, but it is pretty hot in the daytime. Great location. Down by the pool is a lovely spot right on the ocean to watch sunsets. For the price, you can't beat it. I wouldn't recommend trying to use the loft...steep ladder to get up there. All in all, I'd stay again. "
Jul 29, 2020 - , Honolulu, HI



"Nice quiet condo
Charming, our kids loved the mezzanine..quiet and very close to nice beaches.. specially Kua and Hapuna! We loved it!!"

"Great vacations in Kona
Great location, 2km from Kona downtown. Resort very quiet and clean with a lot of flowers. Condo was clean well equiped."
Jul 26, 2019 - , Quebec, Quebec



"Upper Room too HOT
our kids could not sleep upstairs (too hot), couch with folding bed was really uncomfortable for sleeping. I would recommend putting a portable A/C unit upper room."

"Kona
Perfection is the only word that comes up when i thibk about this rental"
May 04, 2019 - , Gatineau, QC



"Great place for a family!
A great place for a family of 6 to stay. Close to the ocean and not far from beaches. It had everything you needed and then some. Beach towels and toys for the beach were even provided.
The management company was very easy to work with and very accommodating. At one point the DVD player wasn't producing any sound. I texted the number given to me to use for any problems and the company was very prompt with answers and help. The problems was fixed in no time with some help from the company. I would recommend this property to anyone that asked for recommendations!!"
Apr 11, 2019 - TIFFANY C., Lehi, UT



"Decent spot but lacking some essentials
The place is well located and the house is nice for 5-6 guests. The staff was helpful and replaced a non working light bulb very promptly and helped us get there with clear directions from the airport.
On the other hand there were some missing elements like toilet paper (only half a roll) and no towels that we found out the last day of our stay were stored in the dryier (not the most obvious place). The house had some roach traps and the power outlets were a mess and they burned one of our wires down and randomly stopped working. Some dishes And mugs were also dirty. "
Sep 06, 2018 - MARCOS C., denver, NH



"Horrible!
This place was terribly hot, on a third floor with no elevator, and the sofa bed mattress was so worn out that you basically sleep in the springs. They don’t provide linens for the sofa bed. Nor toilet paper or paper towels for the kitchen. The tv never worked! And the electrical outlets do not work either! "
Sep 06, 2018 - Elsa Y C., Miami, FL



"Loved it
It was wonderful. The property is beautiful and very well maintained."
Sep 02, 2018 - Kerry D., Twin Falls, NH



"Hawaii Family Vacation
Great location on the ocean and close to town. The condo felt like home for a week and the kids had a great time! They loved the loft!
It was great to have beach mats, chairs, umbrellas and a boogie board for the beach. The pool was great for those days we wanted to rest a little. We would definitely stay there again! "
Aug 21, 2018 - Teresa R., Englewood, OH



"Good Location
This unit is within walking distance of Kona restaurants and shops. The unit is well-maintained, except for a sliding glass door that needs new rollers. "
Aug 21, 2018 - , Tucson, AZ



"Nice Apartment
The place itself was nice and clean. It was perfect for our family off five. The location is not to far from the KONA shopping area, and you could walk there if you wanted.
We loved our house gecko, the kids named him „George“.
If you have to call the office, the people working there are a bit on the unfriendly side. Blake on the other hand was very friendly and helpful."
Jun 23, 2018 - Claudia W., Irvine, NA



"Best vacation ever
I rented this condo for my daughter and her family - all adults. They loved it! Comfortable accommodations, with beach gear to take to the beach and there is the best snorkeling right in front of the complex. What more could you want."
May 11, 2018 - , Kailua-Kona, HI



"Perfect location!
We've stayed at other condos on Alii Drive and they weren't as nice as this one! It's spacious, clean and perfect for a family! Our boys loved the loft area and my favorite part was the lanai! We sat out there every morning and watched the waves and beautiful birds while drinking our coffee! The swimming pool and hot tub were also amazing; perfect temperature! We will definitely be coming back!"
May 10, 2018 - Christine A., Palmer, AK



"Kona April 2018
We would love to consider the Big Island as our second home. We have been coming here for over thirty years. This was the 5th time we stayed at the Kona Makai Condos and the first time in a unit managed by Knutson and Associates. The complex is amazing which is why we keep coming back. It is beautifully maintained, quiet, ocean front, and located just the right distance from town. I must commend everyone at Knutson and Associates as they were by far the most professional management company that we have ever encountered on the Big Island. We look forward to arranging stays with Knutson and Associates in the future."
Apr 25, 2018 - John G., Napa, CA



"Wonderful Kailua-Kona Condo
We've rented this wonderful condo for about five years. It is the best decorated and well outfitted (kitchen) of any condo at the Kona Makai that we've rented in 17 years! It's only drawback is the third floor; there are no elevators and I have bad knees!"
Apr 17, 2018 - Cyndy L., Eugene, OR



"Home Away from Home
The venue itself is great -- close to some beaches, walking distance to Kailua Kona boardwalk, and nice accommodations. We got a little confused with the code for the front gate -- there was nothing on our check-in directions, but we figured it out by luck (at 12:30 AM). Having that fixed would be an easy improvement to the experience, but overall a great place to stay and would do it again. "

Glad we stayed here rather than a hotel. Great unit...comfortable, nicely decorated"
Nov 21, 2017 - Paul S.



"Good location, but a bit overpriced for what you get
Read the fine print on price, because what's listed on what you'd pay and after all the taxes/fees, it comes to WAY more than expected. My friends and I loved the location, and although the property was a bit old, it had all the kitchen utensils, towels, bedding, etc. that you'd need. The wi-fi worked well, there's AC, and eating breakfast on the balcony got you a great view of the ocean since it's on the 3rd floor. There's plenty of parking and it's a quiet area. My friend went to the pool and there was a sea turtle right out on the ocean. Gorgeous view there.

However, there are a ton of little ants everywhere (so get used to putting things like your cereal in the fridge) and the last night, there was a giant flying cockroach that made all 3 of us cram into the tiny room to sleep. I've lived in Hawaii for awhile and know that there is a cockroach problem, but they should be able to be contained to the outdoors.

I think if the price were lower (or what the listed price was), I'd recommend it to a friend. Also, they're putting in solar panels so it's nice that they're being eco-friendly!"

"Really a nice place
We had a great time despite the small little lezard in the appart at arrival and cleaning lady left us only one roll of toilet paper. Appart is fully loaded including bodysurf, beach chairs, tennis raquets, umbrella"

We loved our stay at Kona Makai 3-302. Great view of the ocean. Very quiet and peaceful. Great accommodations for 6, my kids loved the loft. We felt at home in this unit, it was very comfortable. Close to Kona and the Hawaii Belt road. I would definitely recommend this to a friend. Great ammenities."

We spent wonderful days at this very nice condo, and felt very comfortable. We hope so much, to stay here once again..."

"For one adult couple and two teenagers it was perfect!
We stayed in the this condo for 11 nights in September 2016. For one adult couple and two teenagers (my son and his friend) it was perfect! There everything you might need and even more. Clean, comfortable and quiet place with an ocean view from both sides. Beds are comfortable, strong water pressure in the shower, enough a hot water, and towels more than necessary. Just a great place! But one nuance,just let you know. The condo has air conditioning.... that is pretty noisy. But this is possible to turn off and only use a ceiling fans that is very quiet. Air conditioners in Hawaii is the exception rather than the norm. Typically, private accommodation in Hawaii do not have this for several reasons. Usually they have only fans. So, noisy air conditioner is still better than nothing, I suppose:) The condominium's territory struck us with an abundance of plant (it looks like a botanical garden!!), cleanliness and availability of various facilities. The hot tub and pool spotlessly clean with perfect water temperature. BBQ place was clean and comfortable also. We found out from the manager of the condominium that HOA fee is around 900/mo. This make sense. The territory is really very well appointed and everything looks no cheap.  Location of condominium is just wonderful! This was my second visit to the Big Island, and both times I drove entire island. So I have an idea that there are enough good location on the Big Island, and in particular in Kona. I also wanted to say that it was a better deal than the previous in my experience of renting a condo in Kona. This condo definitely has a better price and quality! I strongly recommend this condo. To the owner of the condo - thank you from our team! Thank you for beach umbrella! It was so good to use it a couple of times on the big beaches! At condo we left the kickboard and life jacket that we bought in Kona. Maybe someone of the guests is handy too!

Lovely complex, not as strict as they once were. All creature comforts made this an easy place to relax. "

"Will stay elsewhere next year
Second stay in this unit and kind of liked that it seemed like someone's home but was informed yesterday that they were going to charge us 50 for carpet cleaning. (only to be told later it would be 75). We didnt mind that the place isn't pristine but when they charge us for this, then that isn't ok. Will go next year"
Jul 11, 2016 - Matt L., Stanwood, WA



"It was like home
The moment I opened the door it felt like home. The place was clean. And there was supplies to get me started,that was nice. I like being on the top floor you can see the ocean from both lanais, that was so awesome. And the AC came in handy a few times. The grounds around the property was well maintained. The pool and the hot tub was lots fun. I liked that it was close to Kona. Can`t wait to do this again. Mahalo sincerely Ray"

"Kona Makai
Great spot in Kona. Close to town, walking distance is about 1 mile. Great unit for the cost. The with the exception of the couch the furniture was fine. Te cushions on the coach need replacing. Internet service is challenging. Early morning is best and I also noticed I could get on when down by the pool but not in my unit at times. Kona Makai is a very quiet location which was fine for us. I would certainly consider a return to this unit. "

Everything was great. Had a lot of supplies there to get started like laundry soap dish soap sun hats beach towns grocery bags coffee filter cooking supplies. They definitely made vacationing easy."

We had a nice view; the AC was great and the place was newer and clean with lots of things stocked for our convenience. "

"great location
Although we loved the location and the property we found it wasn't suited to our needs. The property is beautifully landscaped but DON'T pick a flower! Wonderful views from the main lanai but noise restrictions are so harsh that actually spending time out there with guests is impossible and DON'T talk on your cell phone! Nice pool and bbq area but again hard to enjoy with noise restrictions. The cleaning staff could possibly use a little overseeing too. We cleaned the kitchen and bathroom as soon as we arrived as they were both questionable. The bedroom had an awful smell and later we almost got charged for cleaning the carpet due to a smell we had nothing to do with! I think overall these units are suited more to an older clientele that just want peace and quiet not for people who are in Hawaii to enjoy evenings outdoors and certainly not families with kids who want to utilize the pool and outdoor areas."

"Kona Makai
Overall this property was satisfactory. My only concern is that there is no indication in the description of the unit that states that it is on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator. My sister has a bad knee and had a very difficult time walking up and down the sidewalk that led to the apartment and then climbing and descending the three floors of stairs. Luckily I am young and was able to do it-especially for the groceries. This is not a property for young children. But in my years of dealing with many vacation rental properties in Hawaii I must say that this property is very beautiful."

"Great Vacation
The apartment and facilities were in very good condition .
The location with the lateral view of the sea was very nice.
I felt very comfortable in this Environment.
The support via Internet by Knutson & associates was also very proffessionell.

"Quaint and Eclectic
Overall it was a good experience. There were ants in the trash can and the TV remote was DOA. The wifi was also not terribly awesome. However, the view of the ocean was excellent and the condo was clean to our expectations."

"Nice unit with loft
The unit was nice and stocked with essentials - towels, beach mats, beach bags, appliances, etc. The kids loved having the loft. We reporting damaged and missing bath tiles right away but the management company never came to fix it. The pool and outdoor patio area were great places to sit and watch the gorgeous sunset. "

"Disappointing Vacation due to Family Emergency
Our stay was overnight and less than 24 hours. We paid for 14 days but had a emergency with my 86 year old Dad ending up in the hospital. We had to get home ASAP. As I am writing this I sit with my Dad still in the hospital and hopefully he gets well enough to leave the hospital. I would have a good review if we were offered some compensation for the unused 13 days. We plan on returning and it would be nice if Knutson and Associates would give us a raincheck on the days unused. "

"Fantastic experience
We loved the Kona Makai. The property was immaculate, it's close enough to town but not too close, and the views are the best on the island.
Our only complaint is that we couldn't get a key to the tennis courts because the office was closed every time we came by."

"Home away from home
We have been going to Kona Makai for over 30 years. Obviously, we like it."

"Good, clean and affordable
Me and my friends stayed in this place, very close to the things we wanted to do in Kona. It was nice and clean, but the upstairs where the 2 beds are tend to get a bit warm, AC and fan is a must (which they had). "

"Kona Makai
Unit was acceptable, very nice location. Condos were very quiet and all non-smoking; a bonus. Interior is fairly basic, a bit dated. There are no special amenities; you have to buy everything you need. For example, there was a washer and dryer but no laundry detergent or dryer sheets, so I had to buy boxes of each to use these once. Other units in Kona have more complete supplies, snorkels, beach towels, beach chairs, etc. Overall is was OK, but not great."

"nice place to stay in Kona
Stayed a week in May 2013 with my husband there.
Generally this condo is in good condition: no fancy granite countertops and the stainless steel appliances, but very well kept and cleaned. The kitchen is fully equipped with dinnerware, flatware, pots and pans, seasoning, etc. The whole property is very well managed with beautiful landscape, very clean BBQ area to watch the sunset and nice pool. Although this property is located only 1.5 miles from Kona dowtown, and right on the Alii drive, it is isolated from the traffic by the parking/tennis court, so it is very quite, the only thing you can hear is just bird chirping. The rental management company is very friedly and responsive: I asked for a 11am early check-in and 2pm late check-out because of my flight schedule, and they agreed without any hassle.
The only concerns might be 1) the unit is in the 3rd floor and there is no elevator, so you will have to hall all the luggage up the stairs yourself. 2)The stairs/ladder to the attic is very steep, so it is not easy for small children/older people to climb up and down 3)Inside the unit, I saw two geckos, one small cockroach, and some small ant-like insects during my one-week stay. I don't think this is a cleaning problem, and probaby just because some of the windows are not designed to be totally shut as airtight. So these small creatures can crawl in."

"Great Location for a vacation
Nice quaint condo, although we were surprised by the size of the living room, it was still comfortable for our adult family of 6. Great convenient location to beach and main strip. "
