Kona Plaza 201: Cozy Condo w/ AC, Shared Pool & Ocean Views

Enjoy the best of Kona with rates starting at $99.00. This beautifully remodeled two-bedroom two-bedroom unit in the heart of downtown Kona is a must-see. Enjoy stunning ocean and mountain views from the wrap-around lanai.

Inside this lovely unit, you'll find a full-sized washer and dryer, complimentary WiFi, central air conditioning throughout and a comfortable living room with seating for six. You'll love the upgraded kitchen, which has new appliances, plus an island with seating for two. The first bedroom includes a king-sized bed and the second bedroom has a queen-sized bed. Both are perfect for accommodating many guests comfortably. Each room comes with its own bathroom for privacy and comfort. You'll love lounging on the cozy futon sofa while taking in the gorgeous ocean views. Enjoy crystal clear views from the furnished lanai, which features seating for four. Two additional lounge chairs provide even more comfort.

Sunbathe poolside and marvel at the views of historic Mokuaikaua, the first Christian church in the Hawaiian Islands. The Kona Plaza also provides secure underground parking for your convenience.

Situated in the hustle and bustle of Kona Town, you'll have access to shopping, dining, and entertainment galore. People-watch—and cruise ship-watch—from the Kailua-Kona Pier, where you'll have access to Hawaii's best scuba diving, big-game fishing, kayaking, and dolphin and whale watching. Visit the famous farmers market. Enjoy a shave ice or a cup of Kona coffee. Dine on a light snack or a gourmet meal, buy an inexpensive souvenir or a piece of fine art, book an activity, go for a swim or hang out at the beach. The pier is the official starting and finishing point of the Ironman World Championship (held annually in October), and a great place to watch the sunset. Everything you want and need is available in Kailua-Kona town.

Kona Plaza is conveniently located near numerous attractions on the Island of Hawaii. It's in proximity to coffee shops and dining, macadamia nut farms, artist communities, and more. If you're in search of adventure, explore Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and Mauna Kea Observatory. Kona Plaza 201 has everything you want for your ideal Hawaiian vacation.

This unit allows for only 1 free parking stall for guests. Additional parking stalls are subject to availability and will come at a cost to be determined by the on-site manager.

Just What We Wanted
Perfect location in downtown Kona. Shopping, restaurants, scenic viewpoints, Farmers' Market and more all within easy walking distance. Everything we needed for 1st day stay available in unit. Wrap around lanai and water view in distance wonderful. Building communication and upkeep expectations met. Only feedback is 2nd bedroom mattress made more comfortable with hard flat platform/boxspring or thicker mattress. Absolutely would choose this location again.

I have stayed in this building before, a different condo, and I can say this one was a great surprise, it was large and had an open concept living / kitchen area. The patio is huge and wraps around so you can also see the mountains. The furniture / beds / sofa / patio set were all very nice, as was the washer / dryer and bathrooms. The patio is a bit noisy, but that is what you trade off for being right in the middle of town and can walk everywhere. Loved the place and will definitely be back!

Will not stay again!
First of all, the "ocean view" is a joke. The picture they show on the listing is about 5% of the view that is actually of A/C units on the building in front & tarps on the roof on the dilapidated building across the street. I wish I could upload the real photo. The only table & chairs are outside on the lanai, but you are not able to use it past 9pm unless you sit in silence. Apparently, the daily leaf blowers before 8am, the truck emptying the dumpster almost daily at 3am, the noise from the restaurant next door early in the morning, the constant motorcycles with loud pipes driving not only on the main street but the side street right next to the bedroom and the car alarm sounding for 10 minutes at 7am doesn't bother the HOA but us outside after 9 does. The rental co was very nice and easy to deal with, but I will not stay there again bc of the HOA. We have stayed at many places in multiple states and have never had any issues or noise complaints before, but this property must be next to an HOA officer since they camped out by our walkway one night as an intimidation tactic when got back from dinner. Neither bathroom is attached to a bedroom. 2 beach chairs, umbrella, towels & cooler were provided. The beds were OK, the A/C was great and the kitchen was stocked but do yourself a favor and rent a unit on the side next to the church. We had family staying there and it was super peaceful. The location is convenient, but don't stay on the front side facing the street.

Beautiful Condo in Perfect Location - 100% Happy!
We have stayed at other nice properties in this building during prior visits to the Big Island, but will now ALWAYS book this specific unit! Spacious and beautifully decorated, with EVERY possible amenity thoughtfully provided - from sunscreen lotions, snorkle masks and coolers, to a generous supply of bath and beach towels, dish and clothes washer soaps, and a kitchen very well stocked with cooking supplies. Newer appliances all in great condition. The air conditioning was so comfortable to come "home" too after warm days in the sun. We could tell the cleaning crew used is top-notch - we didn't even feel a spec of sand beneath our feet when walking barefoot across the cool tiled floors (and we also cared well for the property and avoided tracking sand into the unit), and all counters and surfaces free of any grime. Comfortable beds, lots of storage space, great living room layout for socializing. And the deck-balcony - whoa! HUGE, wrap around with access from both the living room and the master bedroom. We enjoyed meals outside on the covered balcony (shelter from the sun and occasional shower), watching the passerbuys on the quaint shopping street and a bonus was the nice view of the water as well. Overall, the best stay we have had on our travels to the Islands! Thank you!

The perfect Kona location.
We loved staying here. Every thing was short walking distance in town. Outside of town 90 minutes got you to everything you want to see from green beach to very top of Mauna Kea. Plan on returning next year and other than a few days in Hilo hope to return to this condo!

Good location
The location is good for access to shops, etc. on Ali’i Drive but a bit overpriced for what you get. For example, there are several fancy hotels nearby that have a daily rate per person for less and with more amenities as long as you don’t want to cook.

Elite Pacific contact was awesome
We ended up staying at another property, because of a problem with the AC at Kona Plaza. Response was quick, professional and friendly when we called the emergency line to report this. Fortunately there were options for staying at another property within the the Elite Pacific group and we were able to check into the alternate property within an hour. Second property was beautiful.

On our way to a cruise
Kitchen was very well equipped. Cleanliness was good except for the one bathroom. It drained very poorly and there was soap scum that we had to clean before using the shower in the bathtub bathroom. Owners did good job equipping outside items as well. Hallway was dark so we had to use phones to get enough light to enter key code.

Clean and perfect location
This place is just what we needed for the Hilo side of the island. A couple restaurants within walking distance and a short drive to Volcanoes National Park. The place was very clean and had a wonderful view. As others have mentioned the numbers on the stove have worn off but otherwise a very nice place. Felt safe, well lit, and experienced no issues during our stay.

Great location - nice accommodations
Right in the heart of Kona. Great location for two couples to split off on their own and also hang out on the lanai to watch the swimmers in the Kona bay each morning or walk over and snorkel. The property is nicely appointed with everything we needed in the kitchen (even a blender) plus snorkel gear, beach stuff and a cooler for a beach day. Property manager was awesome too. We had a great week.
