Wonderful house!
We got our extended family together here and had 6 adults and 2 pre-teens stay here. The house and layout was perfect for us. It's great that 3 of the 4 bedrooms are in the back/separate area so that some could go to bed earlier/later and also wake up earlier/later. We could be in the kitchen making noise and not wake up most folks. All the bedrooms have their own air conditioning unit, which made sleeping pleasant. The house is in a gated community, which adds a few minutes to get in and out of, but that makes it quiet even though you're only 5 minutes from the central Kona area. There are two beaches you can walk to, one of which is very calm and protected. There is a nice public walkway that goes in front of all the houses in the community, so there were people walking by the house all day, but we also used the pathway to get to the beach. We used the pool and patio a lot and felt like it is one of the nicest setups in the development. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would go back again.

Nice house in a great location
We have stayed all over the Big Island and Hawaii. Our group of 8 appreciated the proximity to downtown Kona both for running/walking and dining. Also, the home is located next to a large playground complex. My wife and I joined in open Pickleball a few times. The home is on the water, giving a perfect view. The best endorsement - we have already booked for next year.

the place for a dream vacation
The house and the location are simply gorgeous. As you sip your sundowner drink, and stare at the Technicolor sunset, you think life doesn't get any better than this. And then a humpback whale breaches right in front of the house, and you are simply in awe. We loved the house, all the amenities, the perfect location right on the water, the proximity to town and to Honokohau harbor where all the boat tours start. We would love to come back!

Lovely home and setting
Excellent communications and follow-up with management company. Great ability to reach them during off-hours. Beautifully appointed—has everything you need—and more. Fantastic sunrises and sunsets. The only downside was entering the neighborhood after dark on our arrival day. Extremely dark and no way to see addresses. Had we not run into a security guard who was riding around, we would never have found this unit. Addresses are not visible at all at night. Either provide lights on addresses or tell guests how many units to pass before they arrive at this address. Would highly recommend this unit.

Good option for a larger group
House is on the rocky coast. No real beach nearby but a very nice setting. It should be noted that you will see and hear the massive cruise ships when they come in to Kona. House is nice. Bedding and beds very comfortable. Plenty on bathrooms Kitchen well equipped but could stand a couple new skillets as the non stick coating is cut up. House has great extras like snorkeling gear beach umbrellas rolling cooler and even a few hand weights to keep your muscles toned. It’s a peaceful spot. Loved sitting outside hearing the surf. We cooked a lot because it’s hard to find a more beautiful spot in this area to dine. This paradise comes at a price but for a larger group it would be well worth it. the management was very kind to allow us a later check out since no one was checking in the day we left

Wow, what a fabulous home.
We travel a lost and absolutely loved this property. The photos do not do it justice. The kitchen was well equipped and everything worked in the house. We completely relaxed and enjoyed the pool every day. The concierge service was very helpful. The only downsides were the unexpected visit from the pool maintenance person, the existence of a public pathway between the house and the ocean, and the back bedrooms were located away from the view and pool.

Great Potential
This property has great potential but has deferred maitenance. The location close to town is outstanding. The views from the lanai are amazing. The waves crashing on the lava rocks and the sunsets are simply awesome. Where this house disappoints is its upkeep. The furniture is dated , uncomfortabe and needs replacement. The cushions for the outside furniture are soiled and need to be replaced. The pool is great but also needs maitenance. The tiles need to be cleaned and the bottom of the pool needs replastered. It should also be noted that pool was serviced once during our two week stay and was withiout chlorine the second week. We were fully aware that the main part of the house did not have AC. Just understand that of the trade winds are not blowing it will be very umcomfortable. Lastly Kona Coast who manages the property holds itself out as a "concierge" and they are not. In summary this home can be a great place to stay but some work needs to be done to get there.

Favorite part of our Vacation!!
I don't even know where to start, it was so amazing!! We surprised our three adult children and their significant others on where we were staying. They absolutely loved it and said it was their favorite part of the vacation, the house that is. We were able to all spread out, have wonderful family time, cook together, enjoy inside, outside, candle light dinner on lenai and watch the sunset, sandy beach, Lava coast line and tide pools, views and local attractions. So many things with in minutes to enjoy. I can not say enough about this incredible property. Only negative thing about the home is that it made it hard to leave it and explore the rest of the island. Everyone involved was so accommodating from the security guard at the gate to concierge and Kona Coast Vacations crew. Thank you from all of us making this our favorite family vacation yet!!!

We had a really fabulous time at this property. It was clean and very well stocked in all the essentials. Right on the Ocean with tremendous views and sunsets. We watched Whales and Dolphins and left our binoculars there for the next guests to enjoy that experience. We will definitely think about renting there again.

What a wonderful place to relax together and a great location close to a lot of wonderful beaches and other things of interest. Weather was perfect. So nice to have the pool and hot tub and also the lanai to relax, ,watch the waves and the sunset. We saw humpback whales off our lanai every day.

Awesome Thanksgiving at your lovely Kona house💕
What a treat to spend 10 days in your wonderful Kona abode. Our two adult boys brought their girlfriends and we had our Tennessee cousins over for an amazing Thanksgiving. They stayed in nearby hotels. WE love that we can walk to downtown Kona and to the Old airport. The house was very comfortable but our only complaint would be that the small bedroom with the queen bed was not the best. We bought a mattress topper and new pillows but the box springs squeaked every time we turned over in bed. We "the parents", who paid for the house slept in there because we were too embarrassed to offer it to our son's new girlfriend😩. Please get a new comfortable bed for that room!! Everything was just perfect. Kitchen was great for cooking our large Thanksgiving dinner and what a bonus to find an empty refrigerator in the garage!!! Thanks for sharing your wonderful home with our family. We hope to come back again soon.

We spent two weeks at Villa Kona Kai. The location was perfect. Walking distance to coffee, restaurants and of course Kona town. This place had everything we needed for our vacation. The kitchen was huge and equipped with every appliance you could possibly need. The grounds were well maintained as was the pool and spa. Plenty of seating indoors and out for the eight of us. The bedrooms were comfortable and air conditioned. We couldn't have asked for anything more for our family. We would certainly love to return some day!
