Our condo was comfortably furnished and equipped with all the amenities. It was fairly well maintained except for a couple of minor issues.
We enjoyed our stay at Unit 3C at Hali'i Kai. We love the property overall. The unit was great. We enjoyed being on the golf course and the distance from the pool was no problem. One suggestion, more pots for cooking and a kettle for boiling water would help. It was great to have the 4 beach chairs and cooler. Maybe some better beach towels would be helpful too. It is nice to not have to pack along beach towels.
Liked the location and space in the 2 bdrm suite but was a little rundown and the the carpet needed to be replaced. Was fairly clean and had all the amenities we needed. Would have liked to see the front office be a little more helpful with tourist spots instead of just directing us to the Hilton for help.
This unit is rented through Kona Sunsets Vacation Rentals and not through the front desk at Hali'i Kai. Any questions regarding tourist spots should have been directed to our office. We have an extensive guest book at the property that covers just about anything that a guest would like to do on the Big Island, and we are available 24/7 to assist with any questions or issues that may arise.
The location of these condos is excellent and the property is beautiful and very well maintained. We appreciated the fact that basic necessities like paper towels, detergent, dishwashing detergent, etc. were provided for us. The only thing that would make the property better would be to upgrade the bedroom furniture and TV's.
Clean and comfortable. Nice that beach chairs, matts, and boards were available for use. Also nice that cleaning supplies were availbe for use. Owner was very efficient and responsive to any problems that occured.
My husband and I enjoyed 8 days on the Big Island at Hali'i Kai. It was a wonderful condo resort with a beautiful pool/clubhouse area. The property is very well kept, and unit 3C had everything you needed. Even extras like boogie boards, beach baskets, laundry detergent and bug spray just happened to be there for your use in the condo. It was great! The rates for a 2 bedroom 2-bath unit was the best out of every one I had inquired. Booking was also very quick and easy. Check-in and check out were also a breeze even though we rented from a 3rd party and not directly with Halii Kai. Thanks again to everyone at Kona Sunsets Vacation Rentals for a wonderful stay filled with great memories.
We stayed here during ironman week and had a fabulous time. The gated subdivision of this condo is incredible and the ocean front pool area is just perfect and very beutiful. This unit is located in the front of the subdivision back from the ocean and pool. It is a short walk to the pool and ocean front(They claim 7 mins, but it took us less, more like 5 mins). We thought it was a great touch that they have 4 beach chairs and a cooler in the unit. We used these to go to Mauni Kea and Hapuna Beaches (6 or 7 miles up the main road). Mauna Key beach was our favorite - but get there early there is limited parking. There great shady areas at the left (South side) of Mauna Kea beach that make it the perfect spot. Also good snorkling straight out from the far left side. The cafe at the ocean front pool area is handy and the people are nice. It is a little pricey. Again the unit is outstanding and the only thing we could find missing was an ironing board - they had an iron and we made do, but we suggested they get an ironing board too, so perhaps they have before the next visitors come. The price advantage of this place verse the local hotels can save you a lot of money. We shopped at Costco upon arrival and cooked most of our meals in the unit. They have a very wll equiped kitchen. If you pick this place you certainly won't be sorry. Enjoy your stay on the incredible big island!!
We had an excellent vacation staying at Hali'i'Kai. The town home was well appopinted, clean, nice lay out. The carpet is getting a little stained, but it's a minor point, compared with the many positives. Loved the Ocean Club - awsome pool, friendly staff. We'll be back.
The carpets have been professionally cleaned.
Unit 3C was very well equipped and we really enjoyed our stay! We would definitely rent it again.
It would have been nice if a hair dryer was provided. Place was generally clean but some dirt marks on the doors & walls were noticeable. The management apologized for stains on the carpet which they didn't get a chance to take care of because the place was rented out continuously - which was acceptable. Overall a very nice condo in a good location. Exceptional price.
The carpets should be cleaned!
Carpets are cleaned following every guest departure. There were stains that needed to be removed professionally. The unit was booked back to back for 2 months and as soon as 2 days opened up we had the carpets professionally done.
We just finished our week stay at the Hali'i Kai resort. It was a great location down the Waikoloa Beach Drive. There are great shops and places to eat within 5 minutes. The grocery store is just down the road, but prices are marked up quite a bit. The Unit it self is located at the front of the complex, so it's easily accessible, but a far walk to the pool. The Pool is beautifully located and is a joy to sit at and look over the ocean. The restaurant is well priced and has a good selection of sandwiches and fresh options. Inside the unit, it is well stocked and very clean. The Master Bedroom is very big and quiet from the main area. Kitchen is well maintained and appliances are all new and work great. Towels and linens are in good shape and were pleased with the quality. The Main area is stocked with a nice LCD TV, Cable and wireless internet. The only complaint is that the rugs were quite dirty and stained. I would suggest the owners do a rub shampoo or change to tile to keep their customers a bit happier. For the most part, we were very pleased with our stay there and would definitely stay there again.
