Not as pictured
The view is wonderful. Bathrooms are updated however the rest of the unit is not “lovely”. Pictures are staged and airbrushed. Kitchen drawers were broken and falling out. Back doors can’t be locked. When we contacted the management company, on numerous occasions, they gave us the run around. Disappointing as the fees for this property are high

Nice place to stay, but outdated and poor management company
I have rented from many vrbos and it's typically a very good experience. This condo has a property management company that we were underimpressed with. They send out way too many auto emails with bits and pieces of info. They don't use the vrbo messaging often, so it's harder to keep track of. They let us know a week ago that the in condo laundry was out. I asked for a partial refund for the inconvenience and got a reply that they were cancelling my stay as i requested but couldnt refund the $920 because it was less than a month out. After several back and forth emails, they reinstated my stay, but said they couldnt give me any money back because the listing doesnt mention the laundry. The guestbook shows another couple had the same issue recently and they changed the listing during those peoples stay. The shower doesnt drain well..fills up within a few minutes. Curtains stick and are hard to open. Much of the furniture is not what the pictures show. It's like visiting grandma's house. Bed is comfy.

Kona Bali Kai
We recently stayed here. Nice location right on the ocean. Loved the lanai for sunsets and relaxing. A few issues: Master bathroom door has issues and needs to be fixed - doesn't shut correctly. Also the fan and light on the lanai didn't work or we couldn't figure out how to turn them on. No internet during our whole stay. They sent us a temporary network which also didn't work. No help from the property manager. That was frustrating. Also the kitchen could be updated.

Beautiful Ocean Views, but a little warm w/ no AC
Decent, but no air conditioning! Arriving hot and tired at the end of a long day to discover that the unit had no A/C was a big disappointment. It’s on us, because that information is available in the listing, but in a tropical location it wasn’t even something we thought to check for. Even if the temperature gets a bit lower at night and you have every fan going, it’s still humid and uncomfortable for sleeping. Our other problem was no Wifi. We were texted the wrong password (the right one was on paperwork in the unit), and were also texted that the wifi was out and it was an “island-wide” issue . . . but there was wifi in the lobby, so clearly not. Other than that, the unit was a mix of more updated (e.g. bathrooms) and in need of updating (e.g. kitchen). Overall it was comfortable, and the lanai was great and had spectacular views. (We stayed 3 nights in early May 2023.)

Perfect experience
We have stayed at the Kona Bali Kai building many times over the last 15 years. Unit 207 did not disappoint. Clean unit with some island charm. Perfect views of the ocean from the Lanai and communication with Vacasa was amazing! No AC but don't let that deter you.... we've stayed in units with and without and quite honestly, the tradewinds kept us cool nicely.

Location, location, location !
We have stayed at Kona Bali Kai on several occasions and will return. The complex is showing its age but is well kept up. The location is hard to beat and the ocean is at your doorstep, literally! Whales, dolphins, turtles and surfers makes the time on your lanai an experience in itself!

?value?
The original posted price was reasonable for the accommodations. We expected to pay for the unit, cleaning fee and taxes. However, when all the additional hidden fees were added on it wasn’t as good a value as other similar units

A little disappointed
I’m not sure why there are only 7 reviews for a property that was purchased by the current owners in the 70’s, but I do see that most of those 7 people really love this condo. Our experience was different. It is comfortable, it is right on the ocean and the view is wonderful, every night a sunset that is incredible. The unit however is in need of updates and maintenance. The staff is only on site between 10am and 4pm, which is likely when most people are away from the complex enjoying themselves. Our experience with communicating with Kelly was great, but there were quite a few things that needed attention and we didn’t want maintenance in our unit more than the the first time to make the tv and WiFi work, so we reported the problems and fixed some ourselves and asked them to attend to those things after we left. The oven doesn’t work properly, the refrigerator leaked the whole time we were there, a door wouldn’t shut, another came off it’s rail, a sink didn’t drain, etc. the kitchen has old appliances and cabinetry, showing it’s wear with dings and stains and rust. The pool is situated between 2 tall buildings, so the possibility of sun is minimal; it feels like an indoor pool. The garbage enclosure can be smelled for quite some distance. So our opinion is for the price we paid (the nightly cost is not bad, but you add the VRBO/Vacasa charges and it comes close to double what the nightly cost is) the value is definitely not there. We stayed a little north on Alii our first week and the value for what we paid was no comparison. So depending on what you want and what you’re willing to pay, this may or may not be the place for you.

Fantastic location, porch and view!
My wife and I really loved this spot. We picked it for the view and it did not disappoint. Not only do you see the water right from the bedroom, sitting area and porch, but you can enjoy watching the surfers at one of the more popular surfing spots on the west side. Note: unless you're a surfer, it's definitely a "looking beach" not a swimming beach. But multiple great swimming beaches are just a few minutes away. All the good restaurants are also a short drive, location was awesome. My only "complaint"... would love it if they upgraded the kitchen a little bit. Some newer appliances and a little nicer kitchenware would've been nice, if you're cooking. But all the essentials are there. :) All in all, I can easily recommend this place.

Spring break
We stayed for spring break 2021 for 10 days. Oceanfront property with and amazing view of the water, dolphins, and sea turtles. Pool was clean and warm, very nice lounge chairs! If you want to work on your tan plan to be poolside from 10-2. The pool is between two condos so there isn’t all day sun. Vacasa who runs the property wasn’t very responsive to questions. Actually I never received responses to my questions I asked before we went on vacation. There isn’t any air conditioning so the apartment can get pretty hot. My sisters and parents stayed in other condos at Kona Bali Kai that were air conditioned and gorgeously remodeled. They were stocked with beach chairs, body boards, beach umbrellas. Their kitchens were stocked with cleaning supplies and spices, and salt and pepper. This condo we rented had none of those things. I found the oven is in need of replacement as half the burners didn’t work. And the toaster was broken as well. We also discovered the walls are like paper thin!! We had a family with 4 little ones above us. And everyday we were awakened at 4:20-5am to running, jumping, sliding, and it continued all day and night. I called Vacasa and they told me to call the building manager. The manager was awesome and spoke to them. But how can you stop 4 little ones. I would definitely stay at Kona Bali Kai again, but probably on the top floor in a room with air conditioning, and managed by another company.
