Kahaluu Bay Across from Snorkel Beach - Awesome Ocean View

Ideally located just across the beach from Kahalu'u Beach Park. This is a great place to stay if you like to snorkel, surf and swim. If not, it is close to everything else.

Easily accessible, convenient and with good under water scenery, Kahalu'u Bay is the most user friendly Snorkel Beach on the island. Unit is large and has had recent upgrades.

The pool and BBQ overlooking the bay make a great spot to relax and congregate after a day of exploring and shopping!

And don't forget the awesome view

We had a fantastic time and wish we would have booked more days here. The hosts Duane and Cherie were so helpful and accomadating to our needs.We love that the kitchen was so well stocked, including spices and ziploc bags. The view was so beautiful and watching surfers was very entertaining. Our breakfast routine included watching dolphins and we even saw a late season whale spout. The condo was beautifully decorated and it felt like a home, so relaxing! Don't bother bringing snorkel gear or beach gear, its all there! The pool area and BBQ was lovely, sunsets are not to be missed!

Incredible views from the balcony (top floor) and living/dining rooms of the rocky beach, waves, sunset. Owners were wonderful and communicative, they provided many ideas of things to do over text and in a binder. Everything very clean, modern, well-cared for. Walk to snorkeling where we saw tons of fish, turtles, etc. Also walk to surf lessons. Tons of beach gear included, well stocked kitchen, cleaning supplies, extras like ziploc bags and aloe. The backyard is wonderfully wild with trees, animals, lava tubes, etc. Lots of birds, tons of day & night geckos, cool bugs, frogs. There were no bugs/critters inside the house, only outside. If you're afraid of a little nature, you may want to stay in a hotel elsewhere. To get into the unit, you need to go up 3 floors of stairs outside, good railings and good footing. Covered assigned parking. Air conditioning was great. The AC is centralized, vents in all rooms. We need AC to sleep and it got nice & cool at night in both bedrooms. Bedrooms face the back which is nice to avoid the occasional street sounds (no ocean sounds, but you do get bug & frog song). Narrow two lane street and 1 row of houses separating you from the ocean, but the houses are so low they do not obscure the view. Having two bathrooms was great, both well laid out and modern. 10 min drive to downtown Kona, 5 min to grocery & a few restaurants, 10 min to the dock for manta ray tours, 15-20 min to restaurants outside touristy areas. Would return!

Great location on the island overall, and in relation to being away from yet close to downtown Kona; and my goodness, across the street from a great snorkeling and surfing spot, the 24/7 ocean view and of course the sunsets.Well-appointed condo including the kitchen with so many of the tools of modern living, and comfortable mattresses and climate control.

Above and beyond expectations

I can't say enough good things about this property. I have three teenagers and they absolutely loved it. It was clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. It was honestly one of the best Airbnb we've stayed in. The owner was great, and readily available for anything.The location is perfect, it has amazing snorkeling and a great beginner break to boogie board and surf. The property has everything there, which is amazing! I like it because it's not as crowded as some other spots. It's about a mile to the Kta and some restaurants.The pool is also very well maintained. We would snorkel during the day and then use the awesome grill and hang out at the pool.Another thing I didn't even realize is that it was air conditioned.The lanai is so nice. I loved having my morning coffee there and then watching the beautiful sunset at night.You really can't go wrong with this property!

Wonderful Stay -- We Didn't Want to Leave!

We loved our stay at this property — the location was perfect and it had everything we needed for an incredible vacation. We especially appreciated all the beach gear provided, which made it so easy to snorkel at one of the best snorkeling beaches in Hawaii. And the view was incredible. Our only complaint is that our stay was too short! We can’t wait to come back.

Great location!

The condo is in a great location! Beautiful ocean views from the third floor. We enjoyed walking over to the best snorkel beach daily. All the beach gear was available at the condo to borrow. The condo was very well stocked with linens, towels and kitchen basics. The pool area is nice if you want a break from the ocean. Duane was easy to reach and quickly responsive to questions. Parking is on site. Condo is a bit dated but very comfortable. We would stay again.

Beautiful home and view

The house had everything we needed during our stay. It was very clean and comfortable.The road in front was pretty busy but the speed was very low so we felt safe walking to the beach. It was fun watching the surf school from the balcony. Check in was very easy. I didn't realize we would not have an elevator but that was my fault for not checking. It worked out though. All in all a very good experience.from the balcony
