Staff was great but it was a real process getting the correct password for our wifi. It was just out of date and they had to contact the rental company over in Maui. Otherwise we had a nice time!

8.6/10 Excellent! (458 reviews)
The location was great. The condo- needs some upgrades and repair work. The main bedroom was nice enough. The bathroom- counter was cracked, ceiling obviously had some water damage and what looked like black mold. The shelf was dirty and paint peeling, cabinets were peeling. The table in the living room was cracked in a lot of places. When you spend that much money to stay somewhere you expect it to be nice. They also charged a utility fee. I have never had to pay that anywhere. It is included in the room cost. Garbage disposal was not easily accessible.

Kua Bay featuring a coastal town and a beach

Kua Bay

Get off the beaten track to discover one of Hawaii’s most serene stretches of coast.

Kua Bay
#blue 50 Shades of Blue - Manini'owali Beach at Kua Bay, part of Kekaha Kai State Park, is another of the very pretty Hawaii Big Island beaches, with fine white sand that slopes gently to the beautiful clear turquoise water. The swimming here is awesome when the ocean is calm, and there can be some decent snorkeling along the rocky outcroppings at either end of the beach. During certain times of the year, particularly the summer months, the beautiful soft sand covers the entire beach from north to south. More lava rocks become exposed in the winter months as sand is carried out with the surf. Be aware of those rocks in the shallows when boogie boarding or body surfing. This is a good place to have water shoes to navigate across the rocks. Manini'owali Beach is one of the nicer Big Island beaches that is easy to reach from Kailua-Kona. You can practically drive right to the beach, and some days it seems everyone on the Big Island knows it! If you arrive later in the day, parking can be a little crazy, especially on weekends. As you approach the beach you may see cars lined up down the road. You may have to walk down the road a bit but don't worry; there's plenty of room on the beach! There is a rocky shoreline trail at the northern end of the beach that leads to another of our favorite Hawaii beaches, spectacular Kikaua Beach to the north. The trail winds through a lava field and across a coral beach less than a mile to scenic Kikaua Point.
