Oceanfront 3BR Kona Penthouse - Stunning Views - A/C - 3 Pools - Sleeps 8

Aloha and welcome to Kanaloa 1903 — your oceanfront escape on the beautiful Kona Coast of Hawaii's Big Island! This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo offers 1,746 square feet of two-level living just 20 feet from the surf, with stunning, unobstructed ocean views that will take your breath away. The unit was renovated in 2026 an as one of the only true oceanfront units at Kanaloa, you can hear the waves from inside the condo.

Head up the internal staircase to the main level and discover an open-concept living area with floor-to-ceiling windows framing gorgeous panoramic ocean views. Relax in the living room or step out to your private oceanfront lanai — the perfect spot for morning coffee or sunset cocktails with the sound of the surf below. You may even spot sea turtles, spinner dolphins, or humpback whales (seasonal) right from your lanai!

Spread across two levels, Kanaloa 1903 offers a layout that gives everyone room to relax. Internal stairs lead up to the elevated main level — and it's this height that delivers the unparalleled ocean views. The main level features the living area with a queen sleeper sofa, a fully equipped gourmet kitchen, and the spacious master suite with a king bed and en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom, also with a king bed, provides a private retreat on the main level. The cozy loft with two twin beds is perfect for kids or extra guests, offering a sense of adventure and their own space.

The beautifully updated kitchen is equipped with modern appliances, quartz countertops, and everything you need to prepare meals — from a Keurig coffee maker (pods supplied) and standard brewer to every small appliance and cooking utensil you could need. Enjoy your meals at the dining table, at the kitchen bar, or oceanfront on the lanai.

Stay connected with high-speed WiFi and enjoy movie nights on smart TVs throughout the unit. Sign into your favorite streaming accounts and unwind after a day of island exploration.

Kanaloa at Kona is a premier gated oceanfront resort community set on over 16 lush, tropical acres. Enjoy three sparkling pools — including a stunning oceanfront infinity-edge pool — plus hot tubs, two lighted tennis and pickleball courts, six BBQ stations, and beautifully landscaped grounds with tropical gardens.

Step out your door and you're just 20 feet from the ocean. Beautiful sandy beaches are minutes away — Kahalu'u Beach Park offers world-class beginner snorkeling, and Magic Sands is perfect for body surfing. We provide beach equipment — beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler, and beach towels — so you're ready for adventure from the moment you arrive.

Nestled in the peaceful Keauhou area, about 7 miles south of bustling downtown Kailua-Kona, Kanaloa 1903 offers the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience. The Keauhou Shopping Center — with a grocery store, restaurants, cinema, and Saturday farmers market — is just a short walk away. Kona Country Club golf is right next door, and unforgettable manta ray night snorkeling at Keauhou Bay is only 5 minutes away.

Mahalo for considering Kanaloa 1903 — we look forward to welcoming you to paradise!

Had an amazing stay at this absolutely oceanfront condo in Kona! Listening to the sound of the waves and hanging out on the huge lanai (with a bar!) was absolute perfection. The place is super spacious with gorgeous high ceilings, new furniture and linens, and giant windows looking right out at the water. We loved chilling by the resort pools and hitting the tennis courts, too. Such a relaxing, beautiful spot for a Hawaiian getaway—highly recommend this new listing!

This oceanfront haven is pure paradise! I cannot overstate how mind-blowing the views are. You walk into the living room and are immediately greeted by the most stunning, unobstructed sight of the Kona coastline. We spent almost all our time out on the lanai just watching the waves crash against the lava rocks. On top of feeling like a secluded tropical oasis, the central location is absolutely perfect—you are just minutes away from the best snorkeling spots, dining, and shopping in Kona. We are already looking at our calendars to see when we can book this dream spot again!

The ultimate Hawaiian getaway! The condo itself is just breathtaking, with million dollar direct ocean views and soaring vaulted wood ceilings that make the space feel huge and airy. Falling asleep to the sound of the Pacific Ocean and waking up to sip coffee on the oceanfront lanai was food for the soul. We were absolutely swept away by the resort grounds as well. The entire property is impeccably maintained, lush, and surrounded by tropical palms, making you feel completely immersed in the beauty of the island. We loved having access to the beautiful oceanfront pools and tennis courts right in our backyard. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else on the Big Island!

What a flawless retreat! We needed a place with enough room for everyone to spread out, and this condo exceeded our wildest expectations. The view is simply stunning. You cannot find a better location directly on the ocean. The open-concept living area and the fantastic loft space gave us all plenty of room to relax without ever feeling cramped. The whole place is beautifully updated, sparkling clean, and incredibly welcoming. The kitchen is perfectly situated so you can look straight out to the ocean while making breakfast! We loved being in such a prime, central spot to explore Kailua-Kona by day, but retreating to our quiet, luxurious oceanfront sanctuary by night. I highly, highly recommend booking this property!

If I could give this condo 10 stars, I would! It is so incredibly rare to find a vacation rental that feels this luxurious and thoughtfully put together. I’m so glad I took a chance on a new listing - it was beyond amazing. The hosts have clearly invested a lot of love into this space, outfitting it with gorgeous, brand-new furniture that perfectly complements the island vibe. After long days in the sun, climbing into bed was pure bliss. The new mattresses are absurdly comfortable—honestly, better than what we have at home!—and they were made up with the softest new linens. It was the absolute best sleep we’ve had in years. And the view! Absolutely stunning. You couldn’t ask for a condo closer to the ocean. A truly five-star, resort-level vacation.

We booked this condo before reviews had been posted and were quite pleased to find it was everything, and even more than, we had hoped for from the online posting. The views were amazing, the condo very well furnished and exceptionally clean, and everything well-stocked. The host was very responsive to any questions. The resort itself has many nice amenities and the guards were extremely helpful, escorting us to the condo doorstep after a late-night arrival. We would happily stay here again and rate it as one of our best stays out of many we have had on the big island over the years.
