Can’t beat the view
As Captain Mark calls it, it is a beautiful old beach house. The doors opening to the pool and ocean beyond kept the place as cool as the out of doors and brought the ocean air throughout the house. Having a little one there made for a bit of a challenge in that she had to be watched continuously, but we knew that going in. The pool is a saltwater pool, but ocean saltwater, which was obviously necessary because the big waves splashed into it. The rooms without direct opening to the ocean could be a little warmer, but not unbearably so. The only issue we had was the frequency of visits by the owner or manager or gardener or pool guy. The communication was outstanding. It did make it feel a little less like “our” place during the stay. All of that said, it was a wonderful place for my family’s vacation.

The location of the property is amazing. The house has ample space. Plenty of beds are available. The kitchen is well equipped. Pool is nice. The pool deck however needs some attention. During our stay, the weather was extremely humid and our little baby felt very hot and uncomfortable. The only air conditioner in the master bedroom however was out of order. Otherwise our stay was very enjoyable. The host and the manager were very helpful and friendly.

Perfect for our three generations
This was such a wonderful place to spend two weeks with family. We all enjoyed the pool a lot. The house has spaces to enjoy solitude if you need to and spaces to be all together without feeling squished. The number of spices, condiments, etc. in the kitchen was nice. Going down Alii drive easily takes you to shopping and eating close by. Mark and Shellese were on top of everything-the communication was great.

Mark was absolutely fantastic to deal with and as well the check in process with his on-site manager was easy after our long flight. The home is just as advertised!! Hearing the ocean waves crash into the pool and the views at night of the sunset were out of this world. Close to downtown and everything we could possibly need was at the house including ice chests, beach chairs, BBQ, body boards....the list is endless. Trust me, you will not be disappointed in your stay at this wonderful home. We will be back!! Dennis J. Luca

Best location in Kailua-Kona. The surf can reach the pool. The salt water pool was the most soothing experience. Perfect sunsets sitting at the outside dining table. The house is older but has that oceanside feel of perfection. My family all agreed this was their best vacation experience ever. A special thanks to Mark.

This property was absolutely perfect for our family’s Hawaiian Christmas. The location is phenomenal. All of us loved sleeping to the sound of crashing waves, the beautiful sunsets and spotting all of the sea life through out the day! There was plenty of space for all 10 of us. The house had everything we needed and more. Mark and his team think of everything! The consistent communication ahead of our trip made us even more excited. Thank you Mark for giving us the perfect place to create life long memories for 3 generations of our family! We would love to come back one day!!

This house was perfect for the needs of our group— location, size, accessibility, proximity, ease. Although some things show signs of use, age, and salt exposure, everything is in working order. Several in my party said this was some of the best sleeping conditions ever! Love the waves and sea air!! The owner and/or caretaker were in frequent communication leading up to or during our stay, making sure we had everything we need. I’d gladly stay there again if I come back to Kona!

LOVE the Location, Amenities, Pool, and Owner! 1500 characters is not enough to describe!
Firstly, we want to stress how frequent the communication process was. Mark provides constant communication, knowledge, pics/videos of the property, & the events of the area. Property manager, Shellese, is the best ever! She met us for check-in, went over all the home's features, and gave many recommendations of places to see, activities, & restaurants. Both she and Mark checked in regularly and sent other places of interest by text or call. The pool is amazing in size for a large group, and we spent a lot of our trip there. It is a great way to cool off in the Hawaii summer. The house does not have air conditioning, which I missed on the listing. However, there are many, many doors and windows to open to get airflow. Shellese stopped by with an extra fan when she found out some were not working. The kitchen is large and appliances in great working order. They have it stocked with all the plates, cups, silverware, food prep material that a large group would need. There were plenty of towels, paper products, everything a home would have and a traveler would not want to pack or buy. There is also a putting range around the property that we had fun with and a whole other lawn area with fresh produce, more putting, and another entrance into the ocean. We had a blast walking on the volcanic rock beach at different times of the day to see all of the ocean life ~ even a turtle! Mark was extremely flexible when we needed a late afternoon checkout due to airline delays. No regrets!

This house was an amazing place to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday. We loved the location, pool and easy walk to town. Check in was a breeze and listing is accurate. There is plenty of room so that you are not on top of each other and can get quiet time on one of the many lanai’s. Cooking is easy in the equipped kitchen with plenty of spices and pantry staples. Mark was responsive and gave us excellent advice for a fishing charter. Loved our recent trip and can’t wait to get back to the big island!

Paradise for our family
This house was perfect for our family of 7 for a number of reasons. First, the location was perfect. It is right in Kona and only a 20 minute ride from the airport. We booked a lot of activities and were super close to the hotels for pick up. The house is within walking distance to town but if you don't want to walk, the free trolley stops across the street and comes by hourly. Second, the ocean is literally right behind the house and the views were unbelievable. The pictures are accurate, but do not do it justice! We saw the most beautiful sunsets each night and were lulled to sleep by the crashing waves. Third, our family is made up of 3 generations and we all live in different states. We had so much fun hanging out and catching up and there was plenty to entertain to everyone. We napped in the sun, played in the pool, fed the eels, fished off the lava rock, had a family movie night, cooked family meals and practiced putting on greens that surround the house. Lastly, the owner was very helpful prior to our stay with offering to assist with arrangements as well as during our stay. This was our first trip to the Big Island and we had an amazing time...it definitely will not be the last. We are already talking about our next visit!

Amazing pool with breathtaking sunsets.
Simply put amazing. Pool is magical and probably one of the best I've been in. Its a very large pool. Overlooks the ocean. If you want a private pool with an ocean at your fingertips this is your stay. This awesome place is a beach house. You get the beach vibe from the moment you drive up. There is a putting green and lots of pool floats. Location is right in the heart of where you want to be. If you want to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of waves rolling or crashing. Here it is. We had our lanai patio doors open all night and no bugs came in, and I'm a bug phobic person. Large bathrooms and we never ran our of hot water. I had worried about closet space but there was alot of space and tons of hangers. Fans, and almost anything you would need they had. Very very large TVs in living room and master bedroom. Lanais are to die for. I cannot say enough about Mark the host. He was in constant communication in making sure we had what we needed. There was continued pool and grounds cleaning & maintenance that was seamless and behind the scenes. Just the regular care like you need for a spectacular place to keep being spectacular. Washer and dryer was handy. Beach gear and coolers were eazy to find and use. Lots of sunshine, big patio doors and that wide open feeling. Lots of comfortable seating in the indoor living space. Lots of outdoor seating with lounge chairs etc.. you can spot lots of fish, moray eels,and spinner dolphins.

Exactly what we expected for a beach house on the shores of Kona. Pool and spa were excellent for the days we didn’t travel to a beach and for afternoon Happy Hour. The house had everything we needed from beach towels, beach chairs and umbrellas for shade. The kitchen was well supplied, the beds were comfortable and listening to the waves at night put us right to sleep. Mark and the property manager was quick to respond to any questions we had. Excellent hosts and will definitely come back again.

First time on the Big Island
We were 3 adult couples visiting the Big Island for the first time. We wanted to find a reasonably priced house with views of the ocean that would accommodate the 6 of us. The house is in a great location and has beautiful sunsets. The house is worth it for the ocean view alone. It is an easy walk to downtown and to the Voyagers of the Pacific Luau. The house reminds me of your typical beach house with wide open views. We would open all of the doors and enjoy the ocean breezes every night and every morning we would spend time on the lanai drinking coffee and enjoying the ocean before a day of adventures on the island. The bedrooms have King beds with ceiling fans in each room. There is no air conditioning, so the ceiling fans helped to circulate the ocean air at night. The owner was replacing the TVs in the bedrooms during our visit but we never turned a TV on the whole time we were there. He has also purchased the lot next door and is expanding it into a new green area for the house. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need for cooking. We did spend some time enjoying the swimming pool, though I am sure it would have been used more if we had brought our children with us. I had regular communications with Mark, the owner, before and during our stay. He is very helpful and keeps you informed of everything happening at the house and the island. This was a great place to stay and I want to thank Mark for letting us stay in his house. When we come back to the Big Island, we will definitely be making this our place to stay again.

My family loved our week here from the moment we walked in the front door. this place is what you need if you live a hectic life. The waves are loud and crashing , you sleep like a baby. The view is worth the stay. We cooked and had a staycation. Played cards outside at night and sat in the hot tub. Our highlight was feeding the eels. The kitchen is well stocked and I appreciated that things were there in the fridge and cupboards. We left things for the next guess to use. The house has beach chairs and umbrellas and ice chests so that was a treat. Mark is only a text away and he is very helpful and knowledgeable as well. We cant wait to go back and spend another great vacation there! I loved the location and the minor street noise is worth being so close to town. Sure a/c would be nice but you only have a few hours a day it’s kinda muggy then hello trade winds here they come and your cool again. Mahalo to Mark beach homes take a salt beating and the keep up is so hard. This is a wonderful home to share great times with friends and family a d you get an amazing host as well😎

The Hale Kai House - Prime Kona Location
Cannot say enough how great our stay was at the Hale Kai House. Views from the backyard to the Pacific Ocean are stunning and we pretty much everyday stayed in backyard to enjoy the pool and views. The house itself was great for fitting our party of 8 with a nice large kitchen which we cooked our own meals most days (and if we wanted to eat out, downtown Kona was only a 1 mile walk). The owner (Mark T) made himself available for any questions and provided excellent recommendations for restaurants and activities in the Kona area (Mark even found someone locally to come out and climb up the palm tree to retrieve a drone that got stuck in the palms). Looking forward to coming back to the Hale Kai House the next time we are on the Big Island.

Perfect location!
My family and I loved staying at this property. Location is perfect: oceanfront, quiet yet not far from restaurants and grocery stores. The house is equipped with everything we needed. Mark (the owner) was so helpful and welcoming. Looking forward to staying here again!
