This was our first time to the Big Island, and we had a great stay at Kona Makai 4202. Wouldn't hesitate to stay in this unit again and would recommend it to friends and family. The Kona Makai complex is located very conveniently in Kona-Kailua and parking was plentiful. It was about a 15 to 20 minute walk into Kailua town. 4202 has a very nice ocean view and we enjoyed having coffee and breakfast on the lanai every morning. We found the condo to be very clean and outfitted with all essential kitchenware. Take note there was no condiments such as oil, vinegar, spices, sugar, et cetera, when we arrived, so had to purchase these things. There was two beach chairs (however one was broken and unusable), a cooler, some pool noodles and some fins in the bedroom closet. We used the one good chair and the cooler, which was very handy to have. We rented extra chairs and an umbrella in Kailua, and rented snorkel gear not far away. The pool area is very nice and chairs were always available. We met lots of nice people at the pool and were given lots of good tourist information by some owners and other renters who return year after year. It was quite hot and muggy when we visited in November, so we were grateful for the air conditioners, however there are plenty of fans in the unit, which would probably be sufficient when not so hot. We were told there is great snorkelling right in front of Kona Makai, but sadly we ran out of time and never got around to experiencing it. We drove 1,000 miles on this trip. Wanted to see as much of the Big Island as we could. Looking forward to returning another time and enjoying some R&R. All in all, a great stay at Kona Makai 4202. Hope to be back.
