Nice views and convenient location, but not worth the price. Sadly, housing options in Kona that…read moreallow pets are few and far between. I moved to be closer to work and settled here after looking for months. I pay $1900/month for a studio, $90 of which goes to amenities (there are 6 units in each of the 20 buildings, so you do the math), yet we have to clean our own stairwells. The amenities consist of a dog run, a few gazebos with broken grills, and mowing/yard services. I live in the "haven" unit with a full bath, one sink (outside the bathroom), a fridge, and no kitchen. Needless to say I've become pretty skillful on an induction stove. If you're looking for a quick option, have pets, and/or can stomach the high cost for a studio, here are a few additional things to consider: Amenities: Discussed above. For the yard work, I've seen mostly teenagers on the riding mowers. Cable/Wi-Fi: Included. However, Spectrum service is really spotty up here. Electric: Not included. Each unit has a meter reading and is charged monthly. When the electricity is out due to a storm or hurricane, power can be out for up to 48 hours (this is what happened during the Kona Low and Lala). Hot water: Does not allow for two people to shower at the same time and both have hot water. Pets/Dog Run: No bags for dog waste. Maintained maybe once a month; definitely not as often as the lawn. Oftentimes the waste cans are overflowing. There's a $50/month fee per pet. I will say the area is surprisingly quiet considering how many tenants live here, including children. There are abandoned vehicles on property despite it being against house rules.

I was lucky to live in a building with all great neighbors. Carlos, the Property Manager is great! He is very welcoming and attentive. Carlos made sure that any concerns we had were addressed immediately. The only reason why we moved was because we needed more space, otherwise we would still be living here. Hale Kaloko is a great place to call home.

Some of the units could use some updates. The 1 I was in had no garbage disposal and dishwasher had a bad odor. The grounds were in great shape, plenty of shrubs, flowers and well maintained lawn. Parking just a small issue at times, as construction trucks took a few spaces. Heavy groceries being brought in can be a bit of a challenge. Met a few friendly people around pool.

Nor is it a resort, as is reflected in the price. Want more amenities and full time staffers? Want to party without quiet hours? Book a hotel. You can imagine how OLD it can get in condos (where people live in close proximity) when people act like crazies and break all of the rules every single night- and owners still have to get up and go to work in the morning. Imagine people eating pizza in your pool and ruining the lounge chairs in your back yard at your house. Then you have to pay for that. That's why this place has rules. Some very nice people rent here in KM, and have for decades. There are a lot of people who need a break from work, and need rest, and don't want to be kept up all night by loud tourists. These are condos for folks on the more introverted side who want to get away from it all. Loud adults and children, drunks, and destructive partiers will be much happier elsewhere. You will hate it here. That's what hotels were made for. There are several of those to check out in town. If you are quiet and responsible, you will love Kona Makai.

They blamed damage on us that was there from previous tenants, and I have pictures and emails to prove it that they repeatedly ignore. The owner of the house CHERYL is putting it up for sale and wants the money to fix her unlivable house full of termites that they would not do anything about. This company is just helping her keep what is ours. During our walk through it was even discussed how a door was damaged when we moved in and they charged us $463 for a closet door!!! I have pictures showing a bathroom drawer when we moved in with used floss, roaches, and hair. Termite poop on our bathroom counter, black mold in the washing machine I tried to scrub. Broken kitchen tile when we moved in. We left the house cleaner than We received it. Lived with a house full of termites that they would not deal with.

We were not aware when we booked that the unit didn't have even a window unit--this should have been CLEARLY advertised. We would not have chose this unit if we had noticed this.

The location is superb, and it is reasonably close to the downtown tourist area, and yet far enough away to provide peace and quiet, and very light traffic on Ali'i Drive. The condo is quite spacious, and provides a master bedroom with a stunning view, as well as a second bedroom and a couch which converts to a bed. The kitchen is fully stocked with glasses, plates and other crockery, and virtually any implement necessary, including a pizza cutting wheel ! There are towels in the bathrooms and rugs on the floors. The closets are stocked with such things as a George Foreman grill, a crock pot, and other goodies. One bedroom closet had boogie boards, kids sandals and other beach necessities. We enjoyed our week-long stay there, and had no problems at all. I also felt the unit was quite secure when we were away.

Our unit was photoshopped to look like it had hardwood floors but had carpet that was dirty and couches which looked seemingly good in the pictures but bottomed out while sitting. we had to put cushions underneath us to sit.
