About this apartment rental
Punahele Penthouse Condo will fast become your favorite place to stay in Kailua-Kona! Punahele Penthouse is on the 7th (top) floor of the Kona Ali'i Condo Complex which is located in the heart of Kailua-Kona. You're within walking distance to many attractions, restaurants/bars and shops! Next door there's even a volleyball sand pit! A short walk of about 2 blocks to the Farmer's Market & Kona Inn Shopping Village and about 4 blocks to Hulihe'e Palace and the start of the famous Iron Man race. After a day of exploring all that the Big Island has to offer, come home to relaxation - sit on the lanai, with a favorite spirit in hand, listen to the crashing of the ocean waves while watching people, perhaps dolphins & whales at play in the bay and witness the most breath taking sunset to end your day.

View was magnificent. Condo was nice. No bathroom upstairs and the stairs were wicked.

Amazing views from this condo! We loved sitting on the balcony overlooking the water and just listening to the waves. The spotting scope was great for observing all the boat/swimmer traffic in the bay. Thouroughly enjoyed out stay.

We recently stayed for 2 weeks at this awesome 7th floor penthouse. The views off the 1st floor balcony ar breath taking. I sat many mornings drinking coffee and just staring at the water. Unfortunately there are a ridiculous amount of homeless people that stay along the waters edge right below the building across the street.
Some pros about this condo is it was very clean and completely stocked with everything you'd need, even down to reusable grocery bags, and the location was perfect. There were a couple of small things that I feel could make this place even better. One very inconvenient thing was there were not glass or microwaveable plates to reheat leftovers. Also the coffee maker would shut off after brewing the pot and then the coffee would get cold quickly. We would try turning it back on to warm coffee but it would quickly shut off. This may have been user error, but irritated my husband to no end bc he drinks lots of coffee.
The one other thing is the dryer. It took forever to dry a load and I mean 2-3 hours just for one cycle and then sometimes a second cycle was needed. I put the settings as the directions stated and it still took forever. We'd get home from a late day and I'd wash clothes, but if we needed beach towels again for the next day, I'd have to stay up super late or set my alarm to wake me back up to restart the dryer if needed. Not ideal when wanting to rest on vacation. Overall the pros completely outweigh cons and I would suggest staying here.

Beautiful ocean and sunset view with sounds of crashing waves. Perfectly appointed accommodations. Would definitely stay here again.

The views, the location, the amenities - all exceded our expectations! But even more than those, the owners did! This trip was supposed to be an a girls trip (tradition) with my mom, myself, and my 2 daughters. We very unexpectedly lost my mother toward the end of last year, so we still went and brought my husband and dad to celebrate her! Its hard to explain, but the respect and the ease of everything related to this condo made it that much more special! My only regret is npt signing the physical guestbook, as i had intended. Kept putting it off and then forgot! I promise, you will not have any disappointment in this place or the owners! All are pretty special!

Our stay at this property was great. The location couldnt be better. The view was amazing. The property was very clean and the host was great. We would definitely stay here again when visiting the big island.

The condo was very well equipped with both kitchen and recreational items needed for 4 adults. As the host couple, we prefered the ensuite bathroom so we took the downstairs bedroom, which was fine. Our only issue was the living room TV which was complicated and difficult to use. The sound bar never worked and only one volume level was possible. On Sunday we wanted to watch an NFL game, and we then learned that only the upstairs TV has the full list of Spectrum cable channels including NFL games live. It would be helpful if the owner would pay to allow the living room TV to have the same list of channels which are available on the upstairs TV, which also had a more seamless remote contol operation.

Awesome Property with amazing views

Our family loved our second stay at this condo. The lanai is a great spot to enjoy your morning coffee or watching the sunset and everything between! The condo location is great for walking to restaurants. The condo is beautifully maintained and well stocked for a lovely time on the Big Island.
We used Kona Style for two excursions Kealakekua Snorkel and Sail and Sunset and Manta Ray Snorkel. Both excursions were fantastic! One great aspect to Kona Style is that you can walk (15 min) from the condo to the boat since it departs from Kailua Bay.
If you go to beach 69, we enjoyed malasadas from a food truck which are made to order. They are delicious!
I highly recommend this condo for a trip to the Big Island. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This VRBO exceeded my expectations. It was the perfect location. We took a couple of day trips to the other side of the island and when we got back home we could park the car and just walk to anywhere else we wanted to go. No reason to pay for parking anywhere else because the location was within walking distance to wherever you wanted to go. The place was fully stocked and very clean. Loved that they had inflatables, snorkels, beach mats, etc in the beach closet. They left us a little coffee and macadamia treats. It was just a friend and I staying and I felt we had a lot of room and privacy. So nice! Highly recommend!!!

The unit is all that we had hoped for in terms of comfort, convenience and location. The kitchen has everything you need to enjoying relaxing meals on the beautiful lanai. We also enjoyed several meals out at fun places within walking distance. They also have beach chairs, snorkel equipment, coolers, beach towels available to borrow which we very much appreciated. Brett and Diane are a delight to work with.

We had a great experience with the property. The location in Kona was perfect and had all of the amenities we needed for a perfect Hawaiian vacation. Although the 7th floor condo is overlooking Ali’i, we spent a great deal of time on the lanai (beautiful sunsets and great vantage point for canoe races) and it was very quiet. Highly recommend this property.

Mahalo!

My family and I loved this condo! Everything from location to furnishings. It just does not get any better. The views from the lanai are stunning! Listening to the waves, seeing schools of yellow tangs and dolphins from the deck, to watching the beautiful sunsets was just amazing. Restaurants and stores are next to the building. The condo is very comfortable and well furnished with everything we needed. We hope to return soon!

This condo was a lovely choice for staying in Kona. The place itself is very nice and well equipped with everything we needed during our stay. We were within walking distance and short driving distance to some great restaurants and a snorkel tour launch. We struggled keeping the main room cool (but I am sure we could have worked harder to get that to balance), but the lanai was always comfortable and the downstairs bedroom's A/C worked awesome.
Lanai and ocean view/sounds were ideal. The building was not loud and rarely did we hear anyone on the walkways outside the bedroom. Plenty of beach toys were a bonus. The condo was within 45 minutes of a Hapuna Beach Park and we loved it so much we went twice. It is worth mentioning that you are directly above a busy road. The ocean sounds really do block out most of the car noise, but not the cars blasting music. This did not bother us as the bedroom was really quiet and we had no issues sleeping with the a/c on and the door closed. The owner was so easy to reach and work with. Covered parking in Hawaii also made us happy. Had a great time. Thank you so much!

All appliances are high end, along with the cookware and utensils. Furniture and beds are extremely comfortable. The owners have paid great attention to details-too numerous to mention in a review, but you will notice! (Even down to the silverware drawer-impressive! Also, the over sized rainfall shower heads.) The large lanai has TWO ceiling fans and VERY comfortable chairs. (We saw whales everyday-lots of spinner dolphins, too.) We've stayed in 50+ Vrbo rentals and this one is the best, ever!

This was a GREAT property! We enjoyed the beautiful views!

The view was beautiful. I spent every morning on the lower lanai watching the boats and dolphins. From the rooftop lanai we could see the glow from the lava. Lit up the sky..
The condo is in the middle of town. Easy to walk to restaurants and pubs. The condo was everything as described. Stocked very well. I use self catering apartments and homes when I travel and this is a one of the best I have ever stayed in. You can tell that the owners take much pride and love in their home. We would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I's first visit to the Big Island (kailua-kona side) and what an amazing place to stay! Gorgeous views from the lanai and amazing sunsets. The condo is well appointed and the decor is very tastefully done. Close to shopping, restaurants and activities. The owners are very responsive and their pride of ownership shows. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful space with us. We will definitely be back for a longer stay. Mahalo Nui Loa! Angie & Barry

What do you need to fully enjoy paradise? A place to stay and take in the views. All from your lanai! The condo is fabulous! Very well appointed. The Farr’s have gone out of their way to make this a wonderful place. Thank you for helping make our vacation wonderful!

Great location, great responsive property manager. Celebrated our 40+ wedding anniversaries in this wonderful penthouse unit where we easily watched colorful fish, manta rays, and dolphins in the surf from the front balcony -- without binoculars! Primary background sound was waves, and numerous good restaurants were within a short walking distance. Condo complex pool was first-rate as well. Kitchen ware and beach necessities were well-stocked. Perfect spot for a get-away. We will check this unit's availability when we plan another visit to the Big Island!

Best Spot in Kona!!!!
We were here for a family wedding. Punahele Penthouse was absolutely perfect for our first trip to Hawai’i from the peaceful early mornings on the mountain side lanai, coffee on the ocean side lanai! Listening to the waves is so relaxing! We saw the King Kamehameha parade from above! Absolutely beautiful!

The perfect spot on Ali'i Drive!
I have been to the BI many times, and have stayed in a lot of different places. By far, this has been the best stay yet! The condo itself is perfectly centered on Ali'i Drive. You're close to many restaurants, shops, and more! The condo itself is very clean and nicely updated. We spent most of our time on the lanai when we were there. We will definitely be back on our next trip!

Incredible view and your own clean stylish oasis
This property couldn’t be more convenient to everything in Kona. I would be surprised if there’s a better view in all of Kona. The space is clean, stylish, comfortable and well-stocked with anything you might need. The owners were so responsive throughout. We will be back.

Wonderful View / Location / Space
The penthouse at Kona Ali’i was more than expected. Spectacular views from sun up to sun down, well appointed accommodations, top rate location, and perfect hosts. We wished we had booked this spot for our entire time on the island! Such a sweet spot!

Excellent start to our Honeymoon
This Pent House location was amazing from the beginning. When we arrived, there was a minor hiccup getting in, but Brett did everything in his power to make it right. I have never worked with a host as easy to communicate with as Brett. The views were amazing - probably the best you can get in Kona. We spent many of our mornings sipping coffee looking at the sunrise. The location was unbeatable - we walked to almost all of our dinners and enjoyed the area. The apartment is top notch! Beds are comfy and everything is extremely clean! We felt as if we were home for our short stay on the big island. We will be back! Absolutely amazing!
