Holiday rentals with a sauna in North Kona

It was pretty basic, but what we expected. A lovely view from the swimming pool...and a great location to explore Captain Cook!

Hosts were very proactive with getting information out. Location was perfect for local beaches. Quiet complex that suited us well!

Loved everything about this rental and especially the huge lanai! Everything inside was clean and comfortable and we really enjoyed having access to the private beach club. We spent several relaxing days hanging out and snorkeling on the beach as well as enjoyed drinks and food at the restaurant, Napua. We grilled out by the pool one night and enjoyed a spectacular view of the sunset over the ocean right from the dining area. Would definitely book this unit again!

This was our second time staying at Kathy’s beautiful condo, and it was just as amazing as we remembered! The two-bedroom, top-floor unit is beautifully decorated with a tropical Hawaiian touch, making it feel like a true island getaway. The furniture is comfortable, and the lanai offers breathtaking views of the pool and beach—our favorite spot to relax with a morning coffee or evening drink. The property itself is fantastic, with well-maintained grounds, a stunning pool, and a great outdoor barbecue area. The location on Alili Drive is perfect—peaceful, yet close to everything we needed. Kathy is a wonderful host, making sure everything was perfect for our stay. We absolutely love this place and will definitely be back again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and beautiful Hawaiian retreat!

This was the second time staying at Kona Makai! Great location and amenities !! Our host, Mark , was awesome ! He was extremely friendly and accommodating! Would love to stay here again ! Thanks Mark for a great adventure ! Mahalo !!

During our stay, we enjoyed stunning views from the penthouse, which provided a spacious and comfortable atmosphere. The condo’s kitchen was well-equipped with amenities, making it easy to do quick cooking which was importantly to us. We appreciated extra supply of coffee. Air conditioning worked great. We liked to use the pool as the area was well maintained and felt quite inviting. The location was very walkable and offered convenient access to the beach, dining, and shopping, which enhanced the overall experience. Just a few things didn’t work quite perfect, but we managed ok. The beds were on a more soft spectrum of firmness which was not ideal for our backs. Leaving the key in the lock box every time we left was finicky as the locking/unlocking worked every other time. But overall, we think our stay turned out to be a memorable getaway at this place.

Just got back from 6 days spent on Hawaii. This place at Magic Sands beach was fantastic. The location was great and the Unit was in great shape. It was quite comfortable for the two of us and for 4 when my daughter and her boyfriend stayed with us over a long weekend. We have never stayed in a place with such a great kitchen with lots of staples. Also we were happy that the unit had 4 beach chairs , and a very nice cooler. As I have read in other reviews, the outdoor photo's in the listing do not do justice to the great water views from the Lanai. If and when we come back to Hawaii, we would definitely stay at this place again. As others have said, the sunsets at the beach are spectacular. We also discovered a nice grocery store - KTA Super Store in the shopping complex about 3 miles south of Magic Sands beach. This place was in much better shape than the Safeway in Kona. Be prepared for sticker shock when you go grocery shopping in Hawaii.

Nice place for me and my 6 other friends. We had everything we needed (: Nice experience

Beautiful and cozy house with great location: 2 min walk from market place, 10-15 min walk from the beach! There is also a shared pool and hot tub outside the house which is awesome. You can get to the nicest beaches within a 30 min drive! We loved staying in the house, the only problem is that although there is supposed to be a guaranteed parking spot within the residence, if you get home late you might not find one (it happened twice to us in our 10-day vacation).

What a great spot. Great amenities, great location, very nice, and the host was very communicative! Will definitely try to stay here on my next visit to the big island!

Kathlyn's place was amazing. Big, clean, beautiful and spacious. Easily accommodated 9 of us no problem. We were greeted by the rush of central air set at 72 degrees when we walked in, which made our stay an A+! The kitchen was big and roomy with all the amenities needed. What can we say about the pool ...but just the perfect for the 3 kids we had. Just a beautiful place strategically located on Ali'i drive within minutes from all the best places in Kona.

We had a lovely stay at Tanya’s place! It was the perfect landing spot for a peaceful, quiet place to relax and still make for easy driving to a lot of attractions. The outdoor deck and lanai were so beautiful. The house was spotless. As Tanya explains in the listing, the downstairs and upstairs are not connected, but it is easy to walk down the exterior stairs to access the second apartment. We spent our Saturday at Waimea farmer’s market (25 mins) and onto Pololu valley lookout and hike (40 more minute drive). On Sunday morning we enjoyed breakfast at Tex drive in (15 mins), continued on to Akaka falls (40 more mins), and last at Onomea Bay trail (20 more mins). It was all the perfect activity-filled weekend and the Airbnb made it so easy to get between places and was a great escape from activity.
