Kona Bali Kai #323

It’s a beautiful property right on the ocean. We watched the beautiful sunsets every night and even saw a turtle outside our room. We stayed in June and the fans kept the place cool along with the ocean breeze. The back room does get a little warm. Overall the condo has been updated but it differs from the pictures. Little more wear and tear around the trim, walls and doors. The location is great and right next to a farmers market. Having the grills on-site was great for dinners. We wish there was a better sandy beach area since it’s all rocky but that’s just the big island for you.

Overall a great stay and we would book again. The unit had an incredible view and we loved drinking coffee each morning on the lenai. The unit is completely renovated, was clean, and overall well stocked. It would have been nice to have a few beach chairs or some basic spices, but that's really not their responsibility, just something we've been used to with other rentals. Unit is great, property overall was a little run down, but great location, and a wonderful stay!

Beware if you need air conditioning since there isn’t any! There was. Nice breeze, but we were warmer than we might have liked. Great location, easy access, clean. We ran out of hot water several times.

We had a great stay at Kona Bali Kai #323. The unit does show more wear and tear than what is pictured in the listing, but overall it was comfortable. Each room had a ceiling fan, and one additional fan was provided. With a baby, we would have appreciated a few more fans, as the coolest we could get the bedroom was around 78 degrees (temperatures ranged from 78–82 degrees, which felt quite warm). As others have mentioned, the hot water in the showers only seemed to last about 3–5 minutes. The washer, dryer, and dishwasher all worked well. The location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful ocean views. We were lucky enough to see Hawaiian spinner dolphins and humpback whales right from our lanai, which was unforgettable. Don’t miss the farmers market right next door on Fridays through Sundays—and be sure to try the sourdough bread next to the taco truck; it’s some of the best we’ve ever had! On another note, I’m really bummed that Vacasa is ending its partnership with Wyndham.

The view and balcony are the stunning features of this unit. Direct view of the ocean, excellent breezes, beautiful sunsets. The unit itself was clean and generally matched the pictures, less some wear and tear on the furniture and some of the fixtures. The other parts of the property (pool, etc.) are a bit dated, but adequate. The location was convenient and parking was easy.

The location cannot be beat and is so beautiful. The furniture is cheap and falling apart due to wear and tear and had clearly not been inspected in awhile. The water heater is small and hot water runs out in about 3 mins so only one person got a hot shower each morning. For a unit that sleeps 6 this should be addressed.
