Top Kamakahonu Beach Hotel Reviews

Kona Islander Vacation Club

10/10 Excellent

"We’ve been staying at Kona Islander since 2008 and have stayed in several different units over the years. We keep coming back because we love the location and atmosphere, and the staff during this visit were absolutely wonderful, friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We had a great stay overall. Our main disappointment with this particular unit was that it did not have a hot plate or small stovetop. One of the reasons we choose Kona Islander instead of a traditional hotel is the ability to prepare meals during longer stays. We stayed for 10 days and went to Costco planning to make many of our breakfasts, lunches, and dinners in the room, but with only a microwave, we couldn’t do that as planned. This unit also had only a small refrigerator, while other units we’ve stayed in at the property had a full-size refrigerator and freezer. That was less important to us, but worth mentioning. We would absolutely stay at Kona Islander again. We just hope the owner considers adding a hot plate or small stovetop to this unit. That one addition would have made an otherwise wonderful stay even better."

Royal Kona Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed there one night, but we enjoyed our stay. The staff was great. The room was comfortable, spacious and clean."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Kailua-Kona by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved this hotel! Walking distance from everything in the historic district, but also easy to get on the highway and explore the rest of the island. Parking on site, pool and hot tub and breakfast included all of which is really hard to find in Kona. It was especially nice for the kids to have the breakfast and pool. The staff was extremely helpful, I would gladly stay here again. I highly recommend the hotel for families."

Courtyard by Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing staff, properties is clean and beautiful never everything right in town."

Kona Shores#130

10/10 Excellent

"Kona Shores was the perfect spot for our getaway. It was IMMACULATE and had everything we needed. I did think our unit was be closer to the shore on the property, but it was on the front of the property on the main road. Still, it was still quiet enough with the wind unit AC running. I will say the bathroom door was not not very private, so this studio unit is best for people traveling together who are not shy and know each other quite well!"

Casa De Emdeko 204

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic property, very clean and maintenance people constant taking care of it. Gorgeous salt water pool, multiple grills, and beautiful place to hang out and eat what you cook with gas tiki torches creating a luxurious vibe at night."

Kona Isle B31
