It was very nice place for holidays in Big Island.

This property is truely a catch with beautiful views, very close to kona restaurants, tropical landscaping, interior cleanliness, and furnished with everything we needed for our stay. Would highly recommend.
Loved the push button entry! No keys to keep track of. Lovely bed, lots of pillows! Everything you need! Chairs, cooler, umbrella all here. Pool is wonderful( a zillion rules unfortunately posted) but very nice. Clean, great bbqs and area to eat by the ocean, lounges for sunset watching. 2 balconys!

Property Unit - very niceProperty Complex - very niceProperty Owners at Complex - Snooty. Make Guests of Owners feel as though are intruding on their property.
This condo is definitely kept up well. The items in the kitchen make it very easy to do a quick breakfast every morning. The bed is extremely comfortable – – firm mattress with just the right amount of firmness. Kona Makai is in a very good location in Kailua Kona. This is our fourth visit to this area. There are ample towels in the unit.
Watching the sunset from the pool area is like looking at a postcard—simply BEAUTIFUL!!!
Knutson & Associates is quick to respond to any minor concerns that arise.
My wife and I stayed here for a week and it was a great base for us to explore the island. The property managers were communicative, efficient, and wanted us to have a good stay. Check in and check out went smoothly and the keypad entry saved us worrying about keys. There was some paperwork but it was routine.
The condo was clean and comfortable. We barely needed the AC but it was nice to have at night. The lanai was comfortable - I appreciated the fan - although the sea view was narrow. But it was also easy to sit by the pool or shoreline and enjoy the view; every evening there were a handful of people there to enjoy sunset with.
Other reviewers have mentioned strict property and pool rules but that was fine by us. None stopped other folks (including kids) from having fun in the pool or using the BBQs, and the evenings were quiet. And parking was always easily available.
The condo was great for a couple looking for a comfortable stay at a very reasonable price, and I would be glad to visit again.

Reviewer Comments:
VRBO includes a huge number of 'fees' including booking fee, a whopping $400+ 'other fees'. Knutson Associates adds to that - so that in the end, the fees nearly exceed the ACTUAL cost of the rent.The unit we rented was marketed as 'ocean front'. I wonder if anyone has actually visited the unit. The only view is of the units on the other side of the garden.It was a lovely place, I must say. Comfortable, airy, and, except for the kitchen, well equipped. There were 3 glasses (2 small and one tall) and one wine glass. The rest were poolside plastic tumblers. Plates and dishes were plentiful - if somewhat mismatched (expectedly, being a rental with short turn round renters). Cutlery was adequate but perhaps best described as 'variety pack'. Overall, though - we had a great time.

This was one of our favorite properties to stay at! The condo was very spacious, kitchen had most of what we needed, and the views were beautiful. It was easy to get into, management was quick to respond whenever we needed anything. The community had easy parking and very quiet and relaxing environment. It was also very central to lots of food and shops. We would defiantly stay here again!!
This condo unit is a great place to relax and enjoy the best of Kona. Situated to get the best ocean views and awesome nightly sunsets, Kona Makai is an easy drive or walk along Ali'i Drive to the shops and restaurants of Kona. The unit has all the amenities required to make this an easy escape! Loved this condo and would highly recommend it.

very easy check in. Great, well-kept complex with a beautiful terrace by the sea. Clean barbecue area right by the sea. The room is practically furnished with everything you need. On the balcony you could start the day in peace and let it end in the evening. We can recommend this accommodation.
