Kona Coast Resort

8/10 Good

"Ideal point of rest for the things I wanted to do.my issues, while petty is trying to get tired people into burning 90 mins up for a timeshare for a weeks stay or 100$… that and the parking. I could only use my designated parking half the time due to maintenance."

OUTRIGGER Kona Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We got off to an awkward start. The receptionist couldn't find our reservation. Eventually she found it I am the 3rd so that threw everything off. We were please with the room. We checked in and left to hit the beach right away. When we returned that evening my wife notice the room wasn't cleaned properly. There was hair left in the tub and sink and my wife had to clean it. When we mentioned it they basically brushed it off. The iron didnt work, but the brought up a new one in a timely manner. Besides that, they cleaned the room every other day which is now the standard it seems. The staff was helpful the remainder of the time. The hotel had daily activities you could attend. We took a ukulele class and signed up for a bracelet making class but had to cancel. We were running late for a dinner that evening. The have a nice game room, beautiful pools and nice views. They had a food truck night and We loved that fact that the h"

Kona Village, A Rosewood Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic vacation here. The resort was beautiful, relaxing, great staff and service. We had several amazing dinners at Moana, the New York strip was phenomenal, grilled prawns were delicious, the house sourdough bread was on point, wine selection was good. Breakfast at Moana was also great, the French toast and the omelette should not be passed up. We also had dinner at the four seasons one night and it was not even close to being as good as Moana. The beach is a relaxing vibe, never felt crowded, just a serene view with relaxing waves to listen to, we had lunch and drinks at the shipwreck bar, grilled fish Baja tacos and ceviche with Island lagers really nailed it. They have a complimentary coffee bar open at 530 am with fresh fruit and the chocolate croissant was delicious , we did that every morning and worked out in the gym which has everything you need. Only comments which are not really complaints but could be improved, dinner at Kahuwai cookhouse could be better, the burger didn’t really impress for the price, bbq oysters also didn’t impress, needed more flavor on both, seems a missed opportunity for them to not have wood fired pizza or just a more bbq over fire focused menu, we would have loved that. Overall I would give it a 10/10, we will come back and plan to visit other Rosewood resorts after this."

Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village

10/10 Excellent

"Original room booked was beyond repair. It had not been maintained it what seemed like at least a year. There was dust everywhere and it smells like mold. We’ve been had a few roaches crawling around. They were unable to accommodate us, and we had to spend the night there they ended up bringing mattress pads to help us with a big hole in the mattress remainder of the night were great as they moved us into a semi remodeled room. It wasn’t the best, but it wasn’t great. It was mediocre. The grounds would be beautiful if they were well kept."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Kailua-Kona by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything else was great! Only thing i didnt appreciate was when front desk they didnt allow me to check out late since my family and I checked in late and were tired from our flight. And we paid for parking and parked right in front of the entrance in their lot but still got a parking ticket. They said they'll handle it so... So overall its 8 out of 10."
