Short Stay on the Big Island

Great base camp for families!
This was the perfect base camp for exploring the big island with a young family. Incredibly close to a good beach spot with snorkeling. Also located nicely from a lot of the Kona & Captain Cool area sights. The apartment is nice, there are extras that have been left by past guests (chairs, boogie boards, coolers). I especially appreciated having a lot of towels. I will warn you that ground floor means some of the Hawaiian natives may find their way inside (lizards and bugs, and the mongoose on the patio might take advantage of an open door but thankfully we only saw it outside). Also, the apartment above apparently has tile floors which doesn’t do any favors as far as sound dampening goes. That being said, everything was as expected and I would happily stay here again. Location is superb!

Lovely Beach Retreat
Had a wonderful 8 days in this unit. Very clean and manager was very good about returning calls. Had absolutely no problems just wanted to see if we could get in early and need trash bags. The unit served us well and the walk to the beach was only 2 minutes. We walked down every night to see the sunset. We would definitely come back to this location.

Birdsong privacy
This very well stocked unit gives wonderful privacy and a relaxed island vibe. Ground floor means ease with both luggage and shopping. Best of all are truly lovely garden views with NO buildings or people in sight at all. The layout is almost like two masters separated by the living area. Again, more privacy. And the owner was very responsive and nice. Highly recommend.

Hale Makolea 11
This was a beautiful, wonderfully furnished, unit. It was very comfortable and nicely secluded on the ground floor back corner of the building. The property is very clean, the pool is refreshing and best of all it is just a half block from Kahalu’u Beach Park with excellent snorkeling and beautiful sunsets. My family and I highly recommend The Hale Makolea 11! Dave P

Great for what we needed
Stayed here for a full week. Overall, great place with a good amount of space. The Cali king bed was amazing and so were the pillows, we slept really well the whole time. The whole place felt very spacious for hawai’i. The location is great if you want to stay across the street from a cool little beach to snorkel & surf but not great if you want to be walking to restaurants at night (no sidewalks and the closest plaza is a 20min walk), though it’s just a short drive around the corner. They had some awesome extra things like snorkels/masks, fins, nice beach chairs, boogie boards, coffee, pots/pans, etc. but then lacked some other small things like dishwasher soap, extra trash bags, laundry detergent, pepper, etc. There also wasn’t shampoo/conditioner (there was a sign saying they offered single ones but we only got one thing of body lotion left for us) so make sure to bring it. As for the bugs, I grew up in a tropical place so you’ll never fully get away from them being on the first floor and we were ok with that but there were some dead bugs around that could’ve been cleaned up. A/C worked well but was in the center room only so can’t really close your doors at night but that didn’t bother us and ultimately was plenty cool at night (this is how it goes for AC in most of Hawai’i, FYI). Internet was fast and we had no issues working from here. Patio was a nice touch, very spacious and private. Overall, would recommend this place!
