About this property

**AWESOME 7TH FLOOR PENTHOUSE CONDO - OCEAN, SUNRISE & SUNSET VIEWS**

  • Punahele Penthouse Condo will fast become your favorite place to stay in Kailua-Kona! Punahele Penthouse is on the 7th (top) floor of the Kona Ali'i Condo Complex which is located in the heart of Kailua-Kona. You're within walking distance to many attractions, restaurants/bars and shops! Next door there's even a volleyball sand pit! A short walk of about 2 blocks to the Farmer's Market & Kona Inn Shopping Village and about 4 blocks to Hulihe'e Palace and the start of the famous Iron Man race. After a day of exploring all that the Big Island has to offer, come home to relaxation - sit on the lanai, with a favorite spirit in hand, listen to the crashing of the ocean waves while watching people, perhaps dolphins & whales at play in the bay and witness the most breath taking sunset to end your day.

The condo was great. It felt like a home away from home and had all the extras we wanted but didn’t want to buy for such a short trip like boogie boards, beach chairs, sun-umbrella, and snorkeling gear. We had the water not working one morning and our host was extremely responsive to my email and let us know it was from a leak in a different unit. We also had an issue with the ac because we got it on the wrong settings and he had it fixed so quickly. It was an amazing trip and we would definitely stay in that condo again if we make it back to Hawaii.

We had an amazing stay at the Punahele Penthouse. The view and ocean sounds from the lanai were incredible. The condo is in a perfect location to explore Kona and the island. The condo is stocked with everything you would ever need, including beach gear. The condo is cared for by the owners, we felt so welcome it was like we were renting from family.

This was the perfect choice for our vacation. The condo was comfortable and clean, with plenty of room for everyone to unpack and relax. With the reserved parking spot, fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, and wi-fi we had everything we needed to live comfortably and come and go easily. The location is an easy walk to some great restaurants and shopping. The closet full of beach supplies was especially helpful for our trips to the beach. When we were not out exploring the island, we especially loved sitting on the lanai enjoying the views and sounds of the ocean. The only thing better than a great condo? Wonderful owners. We reached out with a couple of questions, and found the owners to be responsive and helpful. They went above and beyond in providing us with some great tips about favorite beeches, dining, and other activities on the island. Thanks for helping make this a fantastic vacation for my family.

Amazing trip

I was very lucky to have found this condo! My mom lived in Kona for 30 years and we come back to visit. Two years ago we stayed at another condo which was lovely, but small. We took a chance on something different and so glad we did. They thought of everything at this condo!! Anything we needed they had. Any question we had they got back right away. The location can’t be beat, in the middle of Alii. I recommend this property to everyone!!

Fantastic stay!

Our family loved our second stay at this condo. The lanai is a great spot to enjoy your morning coffee or watching the sunset and everything between! The condo location is great for walking to restaurants. The condo is beautifully maintained and well stocked for a lovely time on the Big Island. We used Kona Style for two excursions Kealakekua Snorkel and Sail and Sunset and Manta Ray Snorkel. Both excursions were fantastic! One great aspect to Kona Style is that you can walk (15 min) from the condo to the boat since it departs from Kailua Bay. If you go to beach 69, we enjoyed malasadas from a food truck which are made to order. They are delicious! I highly recommend this condo for a trip to the Big Island. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Perfect

This VRBO exceeded my expectations. It was the perfect location. We took a couple of day trips to the other side of the island and when we got back home we could park the car and just walk to anywhere else we wanted to go. No reason to pay for parking anywhere else because the location was within walking distance to wherever you wanted to go. The place was fully stocked and very clean. Loved that they had inflatables, snorkels, beach mats, etc in the beach closet. They left us a little coffee and macadamia treats. It was just a friend and I staying and I felt we had a lot of room and privacy. So nice! Highly recommend!!!

Beautiful Condo

This is a really nice property. Nice layout on the main floor and a huge loft with a California king bed, a 55” TV and a refrigerator. Nice touches include an air printer for printing with your devices and a terrific smart TV with hundreds of channels and dozens of apps, allowing you to sign in with your credentials to watch from your playlists.The view is fantastic with a full ocean view and a very nice lanai. The loft has a mountain lanai overlooking the pool area.The owners are a dream to work with. Very helpful and accommodating. Only drawbacks are minor. The parking space is a bit tight. I would recommend nothing larger than an intermediate sized vehicle. Also, while oceanfront property, Ali’i Drive is between the condo building and the water and there are bars nearby, both of which create noise that is sometimes annoying.All in all, I would not hesitate to stay here again.
