Kahaluu Bay, 2.9 km from Donkey Mill Art Center

"It is really very close to the beach, you can even walk it.i also love the place itself. very quiet. The only thing really is the air con is very loud that you can’t sleep! That is the tie breaker. Either you sleep in comfort with the loud sound of the air conditioner blasting loud into your ear or hot but quiet during the night. I always end up turning off the air and just taking off my clothes under the covers Lol. Also the small window by the back porch doesn’t have a curtain so the neighbor...

The bad: communication was awful. Don't know if the problem is with the owner or RedAwning. Most units are welcoming (flowers, complementary chocolates, coffee, and welcoming reminders about check...

Top Donkey Mill Art Center Hotel Reviews

Royal Kona Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Loved my stay"

Magic Sands Unit 111 - Beach and Saltwater Pool

8/10 Good

"A lot of bugs but otherwise the place was awesome. I would definitely repeat. As a gift, I left a fishing pole for the community."

White Sands Village Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"A very comfortable condo, with plenty of space. Having two bathrooms, a kitchen, and an in-unit laundry was incredibly convenient. The location was excellent; just a mile down the road from outstanding snorkeling and across the street from Magic Sands and beautiful sunsets. Otherwise a great base for exploring the island."

White Sands Village #217 Perfect Tropical Escape

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place to stay only complaint the second bathroom didn't have hot water"

Kona Bali Kai

10/10 Excellent

"Really loved this space. Right along the shore, free parking below, Da Poke Shack, and a pool as well. Bot located in the heart of Kailua but along Alii Drive to not be too far from the scenery. Will definitely stay here again in the future."

Hale Maluhia Country Inn

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I deeply appreciate Hale Maluhia Country Inn and all of the courtesies. The staff and owners went above and beyond to make a memorable experience and the support and kindness made all the difference of a superb honeymoon vacation. We both feel like we made friends for life and every question or concern was answered. Thank you again for making this happen 💖 Mahalo!"

Oceanfront Condo 117 in Kailua-kona

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great! Chaos and towels to use at the beach! Umbrella came in handy to use at 2step beach; and the cooler was a life saver! We bought ice packs to use, and left them in the cooler for the next guests! Couldn't have been more satisfied with the condo! (Other than maybe a pizza cutter for those buying cheap frozen pizzas for dinner)."
