The Kona Islander Inn is just across the street from
Kalaepaakai Beach, with only 50 yards between the condos closest to Alii Dr and the ocean waters.
The studio and one bedroom condos have interiors of 342 to 529 Sq Ft with one covered lanai on the outside. There are only two one bedroom floor plans, which have a full kitchen, the rest are all studios that almost exclusively have only a kitchenette.
Please note that this is a Leasehold property, the lease expiring in 2079.
Each unit has one assigned, uncovered parking space. You have ceiling fans in the living area, with some condos also having window a/c units added by the owner. The complex has a shared coin laundry on-site for residents to use. The buildings are all walk-ups, so there are no elevators on the property.
Many of the condos have peekaboo to partial ocean views from them.
Amenities & Things To Do Directly on the other side of Alii Dr is Kalaepaakai Beach, which has a sandy space before transitioning to a rocky slope down to the water. You can swim here when the conditions are right and water shoes are recommended, at least to have with you. Even if the surf is too strong, you have a beautiful view from shore, especially at sunset time.
One mile north is
Kamakahonu Beach, where you have more welcoming waters because of its location inside a cove. Here the swimming conditions are consistently good and there’s also a reef not very far out from the beach that is a popular snorkeling spot.
Kailua Pier, right beside the beach, is the location for many local events and festivals, plus you can enjoy an excellent sunset view at the end of it.
