Vacation rentals in Makapala

We had a lovely stay. The complex is slightly older but matches the pictures well. The primary bedroom is actually a loft so if you have others in your party that wake up earlier, just keep this in mind. But we loved it here. We wanted to stay outside of Kona’s downtown, but we were just two minutes though from a shopping center and many restaurants. Downtown Kona is about 15-20 minutes. The views are amazing and this condo gives you more of a condo complex feel rather than resort, which means the pool was never crowded and it’s not loud. You can sit and enjoy the pool and ocean. I’d definitely stay again!

This condo is very quiet, overlooking the golf course and ocean. Nice sunsets. We really enjoyed the golfing (reasonable rate with the member's pass), and pickleball/tennis is very close ...beside the pool. Close by is a gym - which had a big workout area and daily cardo classes. Also - a very good grocery store nearby. The condo was well set-up for the two of us. particularly helpful were the beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. We spent many afternoons visiting different beaches along the Waikoloa coast. Some were a few miles away, others about 15 min drive. The guidebook in the condo was very helpful.

Chris is an amazing host and is very clear in his communication. House was exactly as described. Very clean and well maintained. Kitchen was stuffed with a lot of condiments and a lot of attention to details. Yard had many fruit bearing trees. A quick drive to nice beaches, restaurants, grocery stores etc. All in all we were very satisfied.

Great communication, very comfortable accommodations and in a great spot for all the things you would want to do on the big island.

Allyson is efficient, provided us with great info on what activities, resturants, shopping, and as I briefly mentioned, was remarkably supportive and kind during a medical emergency we were facing. Thank you Allyson.

Sandra’s place was really really nice. It felt very much like home. It was super clean, cozy, decorated nicely, and had everything I needed. Sandra was also super kind, responded very quickly to any of my messages, and was very accommodating. I’ll def book her place again when in Kona.

This place was neat and clean. The kitchen was stocked with many of the things we needed. The host was very helpful and responsive. We really loved sitting on the lanai having our morning coffee as the sun came up. This place is on the west side of the island so we were able to catch a couple of beautiful sunsets as well. There were a lot of places to see and do in the town nearby. It is within walking distance but there is no sidewalk so at times it felt safer to drive there. We stayed here for 3 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. We recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet place to enjoy Hawaii.

Seriously paradise. It met all my desires for a beach vacation: It is right across the street from Magic sands beach - the condo is set back, so about a 4 minute walk. I think it is the only sandy beach in the area. A 3 minute drive to amazing snorkeling in a protected bay/ cove. A 10 minute drive to great shops and restaurants. You have your own parking spot. Re: the condo- Quiet, and I am a light sleeper. Chorus of birds in the trees on the property begins at dawn. They are the alarm clock I've always wanted. They get more quiet after the initial greeting of the day. The apartment has all the amenities, including good kitchen knives for cooking, pots and pans in good shape, olive oil, pls more. All the beach gear and snorkeling gear you could want. You have a partial ocean view from the lanai, it is really nice to sit out at the table and eat while gazing at the water and hills. Do be safe at this beach - big waves break right on sand - just use common sense and you will be fine.
