Kona Palms 304 [1]
A perfect slice of Hawaiian paradise
Reviewed on 2026-04-02 by Chad T. , Lakewood, CO United StatesOur stay at this condo was absolutely fantastic! Our family of four spent seven nights here and couldn’t have been happier with the prime location on Ali‘i Drive. The smaller, more intimate condo complex was exactly what we were looking for—quiet, friendly, and never crowded. The convenience of the elevator from the top (third) floor down to the covered, reserved parking garage made everything so easy.<br/><br/>The lanai was a true highlight of our stay. We spent countless hours there reading, enjoying meals, sipping coffee, napping, and watching surfers in Lyman Bay. It was also fun to take in the steady stream of activity along the road, with people running, walking, and biking throughout the day.<br/><br/>Inside, the condo was just as impressive. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the stylish décor felt thoughtfully curated and welcoming. We also appreciated the little extras, like the foldable beach chairs and umbrella in the downstairs storage closet—they made our beach outings even more enjoyable.<br/><br/>The property amenities were equally great. The pool was clean and inviting, and we loved having access to the propane BBQ grill—we even made pineapple shrimp kabobs one evening, which was a memorable treat!<br/><br/>We highly recommend this condo and would absolutely stay here again. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Reviewed on 2026-01-13 by James S. , Phoenix, AZ USNicely updated condo with ocean views. Cute little complex tucked away on Ali’i with easy access to Kona Town, Magic Sands and Kahalu’u. Very quite complex so not for the party crowd, but perfect for our family of 3. Highly recommended!
