About this apartment rental
Our unit 1002 at Kanaloa provides just the right blend of luxury and value, in an unsurpassed Hawaiian setting. This large (1500+ sq.ft.) and elegant condo is situated on the north edge of the Kanaloa complex, facing the Kona Country Club course about 100 yards off the ocean. It's an ideal setting for fun family vacations or tranquil getaways. If you have stayed at other condo complexes in Kona, you'll be struck by the large size of this unit, as well as the traffic-free environment. We've just completed master bathroom renovation, plus recent kitchen and living room upgrades. It's looking better than ever!
The Castle Kanaloa at Kona resort is famous for its gorgeous tropical landscaping and peaceful ambiance. Kanaloa features three swimming pools with spas, and lighted tennis courts. The 17-acre resort grounds are spacious and quiet, and the coastline is spectacular as Pacific waves break on black lava rock. The surrounding Keauhou Bay area is rich in Hawaiian history, and makes for pleasant walking. Here you are free from the traffic and congestion along Ali'i Drive, but still just minutes away from downtown Kailua-Kona.
The unit is comfortably furnished, island style. You will find a king bed in the master suite and two twin beds (or queen conversion) in the second bedroom. We also have a new queen size, plug-in aero-bed for comfortable sleeping in the living room. There's cable TV and an Apple media player in the living room, and a Bose music player. Fast wifi is available throughout. In the kitchen you'll find everything you need (we just added to or upgraded available cookware, tableware and appliances.)
The large, shady lanai is perfect for morning coffee or evening dining, with lovely garden and mountain views. Then walk out to the ocean pool, or along the rocky shoreline to watch the sunset.
We have owned and managed this unit since 2001, and are committed to quality and fairness. A number of guests come back for extended stays again and again. We live off-island, but our local representative (and the great Kanaloa maintenance department) are always available if need arises. Please contact Scott or Jen if you have any questions, and let us help you plan your trip to the Big Island. Mahalo!

This property is beautiful, quiet, safe and just what we wanted. Hope to be back soon.

This is our 4th year staying at the Kanaloa Kona condos and our second time in this specific condo. We love the beautiful and relaxing setting and the awesome pools. We have 3 young children and this has been our favorite vacation spot.

We fortunately got to stay in this condo for 2 weeks. The location is great and everything you need is within a short car ride. (Or walk!)
Scott was a great host with quick communication. The condo was equipped with all that we needed, including a brand new pack n’ play.
We enjoyed the use of the beach chairs, toys, and snorkel gear.
Enjoying a morning coffee on lanai while watching the golfers was a relaxing way to start our day.
We definitely would stay here again!

Love sitting on the lanai overlooking golf course. Had everything needed for our stay. Will stay again.

The condo was open, spacious, clean, and well-appointed within a quiet complex of tropical beauty. The ocean-front campus with three pools was within minutes of Kona, water adventure shops, restaurants, and shopping. This condo is IDEAL in every way!

This was our third time to the Big Island and we wanted a place with air conditioning. Very nice condo with well stocked kitchen. The only complaint about the kitchen was the lack of a functioning ice maker. The master bedroom had a very comfortable bed and the bathrooms were very nice. Only downside is maybe a hand held shower head in the master bath since the water pressure in the shower wasn't great. The provided beach towels were a plus, but if there were more than two people, more towels would be needed. When we come back to the Big Island next time, this place will definitely be on our short list of places to stay. Highly recommend!

Great place to stay. Gorgeous sunset views. In a quiet part of town and a short distance to groceries, restaurants, shopping, beaches etc. will stay again if I’m ever back on the big island!

Roomy, comfortable condo. This is a downstairs unit. Consider checking fridge & cupboard before a big shop to see what's there (cooking oil, soy sauce, etc). Nicely appointed kitchen. Comfy beds. Short drive to main shops & places to eat along Ali'i, with a few even closer.

Roaches on the floor, big B52’s and the little ones. The check in process sucks, it’s a hassle and it costs 30 to register? Plus it’s closed in the afternoon. Biggest bummer was that the oceanfront pool was closed and that was one of the deciding factors in booking this place. A little more transparency would have gone far.

My family and I were here for my sons wedding. We arrived late to the place after a long day of travel and security was so sweet and kind for helping us find our condo to get some sleep. And let us finish checking in the next morning. Kona is a beautiful place. And our stay here made it, the place was clean plenty of room for a family great place for kids there’s plenty to do even on the grounds here pools tennis ping pong beautiful walking distance beaches. Groceries and restaurants not even a ten minute walk. Huge Balcony and view of the golf course never gets old. Everything was included to have a wonderful stay. Very peaceful here. Friendly people all around. Would definitely stay here again!

Location is great and check in was pretty easy. The parking is a walk to the unit but is covered. This unit is huge and very nicely furnished. I wish they had a TV is the master bedroom. Internet was good and the kitchen was nice. So much equipment to use in the kitchen. Refrig is going to be replaced and the owner is very responsive. I will be doing a detailed review with pictures online.

Had a nice, smooth, and comfortable stay in Kona. The unit was just right for our family. The grounds are well maintained and the Lanai is very nice in the morning.
Enjoyed the beach with some of the beach gear available to us.
The directions and guide sent in email are worth reviewing to find out good "local" spots.

This condo fit our family of 5 perfectly. It was well stocked with everything we needed. The grounds are beautiful, the lanai faces the golf course with a mountain backdrop. Grocery store is close and convenient. Will definitely stay here again!

We had a blast staying here! We were able to enjoy so many activities close to this location- snorkeling just 5 minutes away, and we loved having the boogie boards to take to the sandy beaches further north. Sitting by the pool at sunset was amazing. The place was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Scott was responsive to our requests and overall a great stay. This was our second time staying here and we’ll be back!

Property was well located. Communication with owner was okay with delayed initial contact. Well stocked unit. Dedicated parking spot, although you’ll get an unexpected shower from the sprinklers (hits the sidewalk) if you come in late. Inconvenient office hours if your flight gets in late or you leave early (for parking pass & gate card). Bathrooms were great, as was lanai. Pleasant surprise to find washer/dryer. A little bit of maintenance needed (blinds, mattress). Enjoyed our stay.

We had a great time staying here! Updates bathrooms, comfy beds and beautiful scenery! The neighbors were very friendly with my children which made the experience even better! This place has just about everything you need which was so helpful! We will hopefully be back! Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Nice complex & the unit’s location overlooking the golf course with a short stroll to catch the sunset on the ocean was delightful. Great snorkeling at nearby Kahalu’u Beach and also worth the bit longer drive south to Two Steps. Plus 5 minutes to night manta ray snorkel. Convenient to have a grocery store & some restaurants nearby.

Hard to beat
Great place to stay. It was very quiet, with a wonderful view of the golf course, and three amazing pools to enjoy. One of the pools is right on the ocean. Hard to beat.

Thank you,

This condo was perfect for us! We stayed in three different places during our time in Hawaii and this was the family favorite! The pools were great and just a short walk outside. The access to town was also quick- surf, site seeing, restaurants, grocery, etc.
The condo was very roomy and our family of five didn’t seem like we were on top of each other. The beds were comfortable and the living area spacious. The lanais were nice to relax on or eat at. The kids even did their virtual school from the lanai! The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to make meals and we BBQ’d at the pools too. Everything was very clean from the condo itself to the immaculate pool and grounds. We were very pleased with this condo! Thanks Scott!
