We really enjoyed the condo. Sitting on the lanai as the sun rose and the waves lapped (or crashed) at the shore was my favorite part of our stay. The condo has a very well equipped kitchen.
We liked the fact that there are 2 bathrooms but they could use a bit of modernizing.
We also liked having the hard-wired internet access in the condo so that we could stay in touch with family and check our home town and sports news.
The condo is on the second floor, with a set of about 15 stairs to get to it. This could be a problem for poeple with mobility issues.
The resort is located just down the road from a large shopping centre with a grocery store, drug store, restaurants and shops. We used many of these services on multiple occasions.
We have already recommended the condo to friends and we will continue to do so.

Magical.

A place to escape life's daily trials and tribulations. Quiet, relaxing, beautiful and certainly a hard working person's vacation stay if they just want to unwind.

Living in a lush, tropical garden with an ocean view

We loved condo 3403 with its ample space, tasteful furnishings, and two lanais: one overlooking the lapping waters of the bay, and the other with tropical flowers and a clear view of our rental car.
The condo is a short drive from a shopping center with a grocery store, a full-service post office, banks, several restaurants, etc. It is also close to the Kona Country Club where we were able to golf the ocean course. We took several day trips along the southern coast, up the northern Kohala Coast and the beaches, to Hawi and the extreme north coast, and over the mountain to Waimea. We also managed a few beach days and some time to enjoy the pools at the resort. All breakfasts and most dinners were leisurely enjoyed in our condo.
We hated to leave and would return here in a minute. Al, the owner, was helpful and receptive to our needs. Great place to stay! One can never do justice to the Big Island in just a week. We'll be back!

Condo was clean and fully functional, walking for exercise was in a nice area. The location of the condos is in a secluded location, will definitely stay here again. Very quiet and peaceful.
Click to rate would not let me enter 4 stars.

The Kanaloa Resort is near ourfavorite snorkel beach, close to places we like to shop, eat at, or visit, is convenient to the highways, but is quiet and peaceful. Uniit 3403 has a great view, close to the water. The lanai made a perfect place for breakfast while planning the day.

This is a well placed condo, with a nice view and sounds of the ocean in a small cove, a few hundred feet beyond the lawn. We rented from the owner through alohaCondos.com (great web site!). Very good value at $99 night plus $125 cleaning fee. All the comforts of home, plus extras that other guests had left. The unit is somewhat dated but everything was clean and worked (the vertical blinds can be a challenge though). Well stocked with kitchen utensils and pans, and an outdoor barbeque just steps from the front door. The main noise we experienced was from the rental unit above (we called that flat footed family "the elephants"). We often had the pool all to ourselves; the adult pool is a special treat with extra warm water for evening swimming. The recent tsunami cleared out a lot of vegetation in the cove (no damage to the condos which are up on a rocky bluff) so the view is even better now and a gravel beach has emerged which you can walk down to and swim/snorkel. We've stayed at Kanaloa at Kona three times before and this resort is our favorite location, very convieniently placed for the grocery store and the fabulous snorkeling a 5 minute drive away at Kahalu'u beach and the world class snorkeling sites 30 minutes to the south. We'll be back!

The condo was very comfortable and we felt right at home. The location was wonderful with a view of the bay. We received the morning sun and shade in the afternoon which allowed us to enjoy the lanai for the whole day.
Everything that we needed was supplied ex: towels, dishes, etc.
If we are fortunate enough to return we would definitely stay at this condo again.
The two areas that needed repair were the fridge that leaked and the ensuite toilet which also leaked. We felt there could have been a few more drinking glasses.

My wife and I were amazed at the value which was presented to us by staying two weeks at this condo. It far surpassed our expectations. The view of the bay was spectacular as well as soothing to listen to. All possible dinnerware and cookware were provided. Cable modem for computer use was a big plus. The multiple pools both normal and hot/Jacuzzi were immaculate. Bbqs were located everywhere. The physical location of the complex is very well situated. I really can't say enough good things about this rental. I must mention a small minus though. Sleeping beyond 6:30am is almost impossible because of the property staff preparing the adjecent pool area for daily use. Their conversations were heard as if they were in the bedroom with us. Still I would stay here again anytime knowing that scenario.

Good condo, enjoyed our stay, beautiful view of the cove. A couple of maintenance issues: tub in larger bath did not drain when used as a shower; window shades need replacing in bedroom (several had been damaged by prior users, didn't close properly); wall in bathroom beneath window needs washing.

Our unit was perfect! We came for our wedding & stayed for the honeymoon. My parents had come here before so were familiar with Kanaloa. Love the quiet here & the new restaurant with great food. Our unit has a great view & was just the right for the two of us. There was so much to do on the island we ran out of time & hated to leave. We definitely will plan on a return trip for an anniversary & hopefully stay in the same unit, it would be perfect! Thanks again for a wonderful place to start our life together & have a truly memorable week in paradise.
Mahalo,
Kira & Dan
