Aloha Condos, Kanaloa at Kona, Condo 1904, Oceanfront, AC

This was a perfect condo for our family. Highly recommend this condo with great views. It was quiet and private. Woukd come again!

We were greeted with a lovely welcome basket. The view is as amazing as in the pictures. Enjoyed the quiet location but still close enough to all the action. We saw whales from the balcony while eating breakfast two mornings. We caught the green flash during a sunset one day too. The pools are small so we don’t really use them (my husband had through about lap swimming but that wasn’t an option). The appliances, floors, counters and fixtures had all been recently updated but the cabinets are dated. The loft bedroom is open to the main room, so isn’t very private and gets noise. The beds were comfortable. It worked well for us and two young adult kids.

We love Kanaloa, because it is beautiful & quiet, but just a short drive to everything. From our lanai we watched the canoe clubs paddle by in the a.m. & the sunsets in the evening. We swam in the oceanside pool before/after the beach.The condo layout was ideal for us - 2 couples & 1 single. One couple visiting from Europe (12-hour time difference) especially appreciated the expansive primary suite with the dedicated WFH space, the loft had plenty of room & enough privacy for the second couple to spread out, & the smaller bedroom with a walk-in closet & adjacent bathroom was more than adequate for the single. All the beds were comfortable, & the bed linens & plentiful towels were of good quality.The high tech refrigerator automatically provided 2 sizes of ice cubes, filtered water, & was conveniently stocked with a variety of condiments.  Kitchen provisions included dishwasher detergent, soap, trash bags, wraps, dishes for 12, plenty of glassware, dishtowels, placemats, serving dishes, & more. We were happy to find what we needed for the beach - towels,  umbrella, mat, cooler - but there were also boogie boards & chairs.We used the "smart" clothes washer/dryer almost every day, & watched the giant TV when we found a DVD on Hawaiian skies, a consolation for the the canceled Mauna Kea Summit Tour.In addition to a Basket of Hawaiian goodies, you'll find a well-organized binder of House Rules. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mhari & Gary's, and heartily recommend it.

We loved our stay! The condo is very comfortable. Beds are great - even the sofa bed is comfortable. It was also nice to have a full sectional and spacious living room that was a separate area to where the sofa bed couch is. It is only a 2 min walk from the beach, and we loved the location. The house has beach chairs and boogie boards for use. Sunny and spacious. We also loved being able to use the pool/gym/tennis/pickleball/restaurant across the street at the athletic club. Great location for seeing everything in Kauai. Please note - we didn't realize that there was no washer/dryer. For a holiday with lots of sand, this was a challenge. The listing says there is a laundromat nearby, but we didn't find one less than a 20 min drive away - not very close in my opinion.
