Overall our group (myself, husband, daughter, her 6 college friends) enjoyed our 8-night stay at Hale A Kai in Kona. Our flight arrived very early and we were able to arrange an earlier check-in, which was very appreciated. The property itself is in a very quiet neighborhood, super close to Magic Sands beach, and has a great backyard space. Note - the neighbor does not tolerate ANY noise after quiet hours so if you're in the hot tub, make sure to talk very quietly. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and had all the necessities we'd expect in a rental home.I only had two disappointments with this rental: the living room furniture and the lack of kitchen essentials. For a house this size, boasting a guest count of 10, the living room only seats 4 people. This isn't very fun with a larger group because some have to sit at the dining room table or on the tile floor. The kitchen is understocked with glasses, cutlery, and plates/cookware for a group of 10. I was running the dishwasher after every 2 meals so that we had enough plates and cookware for the next meal. We also bought some essentials like plastic wrap, baggies, kitchen scissors, and such so that we could pack food for when we were out of the house, and left the remainders for those who came after us. I know not everyone cooks on their vacation as much as we did, but we wanted to keep costs down, so having a well-stocked kitchen would have been nice.Overall this was a good house and we loved the location!
