Excellent location

Nice open floor plan, excellent location for easy access to the rest of the island. Couldn’t have any food out on the lanai due to the number of chickens. Grounds and beach access were wonderful. Enjoyed our stay would come back again!

The room was not clean, cobwebs, clogged bath tub, dirty pillow case, dirty floors, ceiling fans growing fur. This was a condo not obtained thru Pono Kai direct so it was not serviced by Pono Kai.

Relaxing vacation

Pono Kai has always felt like a second home to us; relaxing and comfortable. We notified vacasa that the screen and patio needed attention and this was dealt with the next day. the location is accessible to the bus routes and grocery store so we didn't rent a car.

Quality reins

I loved the high quality decor. I had to laugh, though, at the disparity between the decor and the absence of cleanliness on walls and floors. The view was breathtaking.

Unit review

Love the location of the property. Unit itself is due for some upgrades. Bed was comfortable, but because there is no air conditioning in the bedroom, I had to sleep on the couch for it to be cool enough.

Almost...

Pretty typical rental with adequate amenities. Unit was clean and located near beach, restaurants and shopping. There is a good deal of noise from other units as mentioned in other reviews but not so much as to change rating. Staff was pleasant and responsive. Overall, a reasonable unit for the price.

Anniversary Vacation

We stayed six nights at this property to celebrate our anniversary. It was clean and a very large, end unit. Being first floor wasn't too bad, but the person above was rather loud at all times of day and night. The outside chickens/roosters were not an issue. You could occasionally hear them. We were missing the lounge chair, which would have been nice. Looks like all other units had one. All basic supplies were available and we enjoyed the complimentary treats that were left for us. Other resort activities (hot tub, hammocks, croquet, lawn games) were nice to have on relaxing days.

Not a nice place - don't recommend

it was a dump and super hot in the bedroom, 3 forks in kitchen, the bath and kitchen not very clean and the entire kitchen leaves a lot to the imagination, needs help. if you saw up close pics, you would laugh, peeling stick on's, uneven and tired and old. The staff that came to help was a few days later and gave us a fan that didn't do much, i ended up purchasing a fan at Walmart that worked. that place is way too expensive for what you get. Thankfully it was only a week. The staff that came to assist was super nice and helpful, but the owner really needs to update that place and do a deep clean!

Simple and clean

Had everything we needed even a small soft sided cooler that was perfect for a day at the beach! Very clean. Centrally located on the island, walking distance to a few great coffee shops and shopping. Read reviews about the couch being uncomfortable, but there was new couch that isn’t pictured in the ad. Comfy bed. Great clean resort with lots of BBQ grills and games for families

Great Location, Great Space

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and really enjoyed the location and space. The unit is spacious and very clean (albeit slightly outdated with an uncomfortable couch) and included supplies for outings (beach towels, cooler, umbrella, snorkel gear). The AC unit keeps the living room and kitchen areas cool; the bedroom does get a bit hot at night, but nothing terrible with the ceiling fan and provided box fan running. The Pono Kai Resort is very pretty, has all the accommodations you'd generally want, is beachside, and in walking distance to a solid variety of food and shopping options throughout the town of Kapa'a. The resort is also equidistant-ish to both the south and north shores, reducing drive time for day trips. Would definitely stay here again!

Amazing Place!

We loved the location. A very clean condo. The resort had so many things to do there (lawn games, tennis, horse shoes & many more). We were on the ground floor and you could walk steps to the pool and the beach. We did not rent a car and there were plenty of things to do and places to eat in walking distance. We also used Uber to do some fun things close by. They supplied snorkel equipment (didn’t use because we brought our own), beach mats, cooler, lawn chairs and umbrella. We ate 2 meals a day there and the kitchen was great, fully stocked with supplies. We brought food and bought the perishables at the grocery store just up the street. We used the BBQ grill and they have beautiful gas fire pits you can sit around and hammocks to lounge in. I would go again it was amazing and so much fun!

Our stay.

Easy process checking in to the room and at the front desk. Space is really comfortable and feels just like home. We were welcomed with island snacks and a sweet fresh pineapple along with other goodies. Area is in a convenient spot surrounded by amazing places to eat. Would highly recommend staying here.
