Na Hale O Keauhou
Townhome L-6
3-Bedroom 3-Bath Ocean View Townhome - Sleeps 6 [?]
Great all around
Having rented both houses and condos up and down the Kona Coast during the past 10 years, we found L-6 at Na Hale O Keauhou as the best, bar none, overall. The 3 bedroom unit is exceedingly spacious, exceptionally clean and was perfect for our group of 5. The location is ideal, being a very short drive or pleasant walk to fine snorkeling at Keauhou Bay and situated seconds from the modern Keauhou Shopping Center with its outstanding farmers market, Kona Stories Bookstore and IGa supermarket. Not to mention Sam Choy's restaurant just above the complex. There are a lot of units for rent at Na Hale O Keauhou but we were happy that we choose L-6 as it has uninterrupted vies of the ocean and landscaping, a number of other units look over roads or parking lots. The pool is also a minutes walk away up a small hill. Everything a family could need is provided in this new unit: We took the boogie boards and towels out everyday and grilled several nights on the lanai. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and bathrooms hotel-like. Everything here works. We will absolutely be back. We stayed during 'Spring Break' just after Easter yet the value was still amazing, frankly, the owners should charge more. The only concern during our entire week-long stay was the rather fastidious and particular older neighbor who reminded us frequently to strictly abide by the condo rules: no towels on lanai, no noise before 8am, etc. As long as you don't plan on any wild parties or late nights, you'll be fine. We will certainly be back, hopefully many times.
A great home base to explore Big Island
The booking process was efficient and painless, after providing our credit card information on a secure server were emailed all the required information including codes to the front gate and to the lockbox containing the key. The property is located in a gated community on the hillside overlooking Kona with easy access to the main highway, and provides great views of the ocean from the lanai. The grounds are quiet, well kept, and include a pool and fitness centre. The unit itself is a spacious 3 bedroom/3bathroom town home of recent construction that has been very well maintained, and has a fully functional modern kitchen. We appreciated the guestbook which provided detailed information on the unit as well local shopping and restaurants. Useful items such as beach towels and chairs were also available. We have rented several houses over the last few years in different hawaiian islands and this has been the best experience so far.
Great condo, great location, great management
14 members of my extended family decided to spend Christmas week on the big island of Hawaii. We booked 3 condos in the complex, with 5 of us (including me) in this unit. We booked through Vrbo which I found through Tripadvisor (my most favorite travel website). It was very easy to book, and the management was wonderful to work with from the beginning, through completing the booking, arriving in Hawaii and following up afterwards. The unit configurations differ somewhat throughout the complex. This united worked well for my family because it had a separate large bedroom and private bath downstairs, with 2 other bedrooms (each with private bath) upstairs. The location of this condo was very good -- a short walk to the excellent pool and jacuzzi. And the complex is a short walk to the beach and to a shopping complex that has several excellent restaurants. This condo was immaculately clean when we arrive and really well equipped. We cooked several meals at home and found all the pans, utensils, dishes, etc. that we needed. I highly recommend this management company, this complex and this unit in particular.
Excellent accomodations
This condo was clean, spacious, quiet and had a fantastic view. Sitting on the lanai watching the sunset was the most relaxing experience. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The beach towels and beach equipment were great. We love the snorkling beach down the road and being able to walk to the shopping center around the corner was convenient as well. For six adults the price was unbeatable.
A relaxing vacation.
The condo was generously furnished with everything needed for guests. Instructions were clearly stated. Cleaning service was fast and efficient. The pool and gym made the experience complete. The progressive ongoing rental communications were outstanding.
Wonderful Na Hale O Condo
Our experience in L6 at NaHaleO was wonderful. This condo is beautiful, clean, well kept, comfortable and equipped with everything you would need for a great vacation. Thank you Kris for your hospitality and sharing your beautiful island home. We hope to be back next year. Dick & Alice
Fantastic stay, very comfortable, and absolutely enjoyable.
Condo, furnishings, and amenities were first class. The appliances and property are well maintained and very comfortable. Open screened ventilation was more than adequate to keep the rooms comforatble without using the airconditioner and barbeque was very handy versus going to the pool to use the community grill. Great location and easy walking to Keauhou shopping center or downtown Kailua-Kona. Gated facility provided an additional level of comfort and property manager checked several times to make sure everything was okay. Neighbors in L-5 are nice and we enjoyed visiting with them, but she criticized several of the younger people at the pool for being to noisey (not that bad). She tends to view the Na Hale O Keauhou as a retirement community versus vacation destination.
Has Everything
This condo has everything you will possibly need. I could not believe what the kitchen contained. It had everything that I needed to cook plus more. It was like cooking at home. Highly recommend this condo.
Great condo!
We loved the condo! It was very clean and the furnishings were lovely. Everything was provided to make our stay extremely comfortable and the view off the back patio was awesome!
The very best!
This is the third year in a row that we have stayed at Na Hale O Keauhou, and L-6 has been the best townhouse so far! We like the 3 bedroom, 3 bath model with one of the bedrooms downstairs as that provides privacy, especially if there are two families. We enjoyed the beach equipment, especially the chairs, towels and boogie boards! The kitchen is well-equipped and the barbecue grill is a plus. After traveling to the Big Island for several years, Na Hale O Keauhou has been a great find because of its location, its amenities and all of the comforts of home! Kris and her property manager were very accomodating and great to work with, and we will be back at L-6 next year!
Oasis in Keauhou
We stayed in Keauhou in mid-May, 2011. After considerable research online, we booked Na Hale O Keauhou for its new-ness and overall appeal. And we were not disappointed !! From the moment we stepped into L-6 we felt at home, and at ease. The estate, and the condo, are immaculately maintained. Small details throughout the townhome served as reminders to the owners' efforts in making their guests feel welcomed, relaxed and pampered. We spent numerous hours on the lanai, enjoying BBQ meals over the serene views while the gentle sea breeze took away the stresses of our urban life. The pool was exceptional, especially in the way it's perched atop the estate overlooking the island. Our day of departure was indeed a sad one. Our big thanks to the owners of L6 and the staff of Na Hale O Keauhou in making our Kona vacation such a successful and memorable one. We will definitely be back here (L6) sometime again. Mahalo nui loa and aloha !
5 stars. What a delight!
We stayed 1 week in unit L6 at Na Hale O Keauhou - 1 old couple plus an unrelated young couple, with a 5 year old boy. Privacy in the unit was great. The unit is spacious, comfortable, well appointed, and beautiful. The service was superb: Brand new fridge quit cooling; Alan had it fixed in less than 24 hours. We ran out of propane; Alan brought a replacement promptly. We loved the walkability - groceries, mall, state park, bus stop. There was no noise from alii Drive. We used and appreciated the beach equipment, all in working order. We enjoyed daily dips in the large, well-maintained pool and hot tub. The evening view, the quiet, and the landscaping all insured a wonderful stay. We recommend L6 with no reservations.
Fabulous Condo with all the comforts of home
My Family stayed in Condo L6 from March 30 to april 7th. The condo is absolutly georgous with a great view ! It has everything you need for a great vacation in Hawaii , right down to the boogy boards, and beach towels for the beach. Located just far enough away from the all the hussle and bustle of the boardwalk , and yet close enough to a great little shopping center with all the amenities, and great restaurants you would need . The pool area in the complex is very clean , and well maintained .the owner (Kris was very helpfull, and went above , and beyond when it came to suggesting great places to go , and things to do.We ended up requireing a late check out because our flight didn't leave until 9:30 in the evening , and after chatting with Kris , this was not a problem at all. We will deffinatly be booking the L6 unit again for our next vacation . Thanks agin Kriss for letting our family share your beautiful home .
What a wonderful place to stay!
We booked our stay in L6 and had contact with Kris (owner) several times before we left. She was extremely helpful in giving tips and information about the area. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised at the condition of the condo. It was comfortably decorated and fully stocked with anything we could need. (We love the reclining orange chairs in the living room!) The property is less than 5 minutes walking to a major shopping center, including restaurants, drug store, urgent care, and the us Post Office. We were a ten minute walk to the beach. The location was really great! We watched many beautiful Kona sunsets and enjoyed many breakfasts from the lanai. The grass area outside was perfect for our daughter to run and play, while we sat on the lanai. We have already recommended this condo to family that lives on the island. They came to have dinner with us and were so impressed by how clean, comfortable and how much it felt like home. This condo really lends to entertaining. I cannot say enough good things about Kris and the condo. We will be back!
