Kanaloa At Kona 701 Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Kanaloa At Kona 701, I’ll be honest — it doesn’t scream “resort” from the outside. But that’s actually what I loved about it. This four-star property feels more like a well-kept secret tucked away in Kailua-Kona, and once you step inside, you realize you’ve stumbled onto something pretty special. The 9.5 rating makes total sense once you experience it yourself.

Location That Actually Matters

You know what’s great about this spot? You’re close enough to everything without being stuck in the tourist chaos of Ali’i Drive. I mean, you can still walk to the main strip when you want that energy, but you get to retreat to this quieter pocket when you need to decompress. The parking situation alone is worth mentioning — it’s free, which honestly saves you a headache and money that you’d otherwise spend at those downtown lots.

The Space Itself

The room — well, it’s more like a condo really — has this lived-in comfort that I wasn’t expecting. The kitchen setup is actually functional (not just for show), and the lanai overlooks the ocean in a way that makes you want to just sit there with your morning coffee for way longer than planned. What struck me most was how quiet it gets at night, especially considering you’re still pretty central to everything. You can prepare meals here and enjoy them on your private lanai, which adds real value to your stay.

Why Couples Keep Coming Back

I can see why couples rate this place so highly — there’s something about the setup that just works for romantic getaways. Maybe it’s the way the space flows, or how you can cook dinner together while watching the sunset, but it feels intimate without being cramped. The recent guests who gave the location a 9.0 rating weren’t exaggerating; you really do get the best of both worlds here.

Why Guests Love It

Here’s the thing about Kanaloa At Kona 701 — it delivers on the stuff that actually matters when you’re trying to unwind in Hawaii. You’re not paying for flashy amenities you won’t use; instead, you get a comfortable base that lets you experience Kona like you’re staying at a friend’s place rather than just passing through as a tourist. The fact that it consistently earns those high ratings tells you everything you need to know about whether people leave satisfied. If you’re looking for a place where thoughtful design meets genuine aloha spirit, this condo delivers exactly that.
