Minus: There was nothing not to like!

Plus: Liked everything in the resort! Staff were excellent, facility is beyond amazing! King's Pond is perfect for non-swimmers to snorkel with lots of fish, we even saw two big sea turtles on the beach...

Plus: Absolutely magical place. One of the best resorts I have visited in a long time. As a gay couple I would highly recommend it. The service was top notch and all the rooms faced the ocean. It's best to stay at the resort and experience all the services and restaurants to get the full luxury experience. We got upgraded to an ocean front room and enjoyed the stay so much we defiantly will be coming back.

Minus: The prices are very high to stay at this resort and I searched the Internet for the best rates and honestly found the best prices on Kayak.com

Plus: Beach front dining was the best

Minus: Everything was overpriced. From the items on the lunch menu priced at $20 that you could get in town for $6 (Beach Tree Hotdog), or the tote bags sold for $60 that you could get in town for $35. Just overpriced for no good reason.

Plus: Everything was absolutely perfect. We appreciated much the outside kitchen and barbeque with absolutely everything you need for a perfect stay. Gigi, the manager, is an exceptionally friendly and wise...

Minus: There was nothing we did not like.

Plus: Gigi was a wonderful host. Room was beautiful with an ocean view and breeze

Minus: Very hard to find initially. Rough road to property.

Plus: The room was super clean and comfortable. Very nice to have extra towels, and beach towels on hand. Several beach chairs, coolers and other necessities available to borrow, which made heading to the ...

Minus: The birds are a bit noisy so it's impossible to sleep in. But why would you want to, there is so much to see and do. We've found that everywhere in Hawaii there are noisy birds that do not ...

Plus: This is not a hotel or holiday home, it is a relaxing home away from home, GiGi (on site manager) is fantastic, very organised, and welcoming. In 30 years of worldwide travel we have never stayed ...

Minus: We had nothing to complain about. But no air conditioning maybe an issue for some.

Plus: Wonderful accommodation and the greatest host Gigi. One of the highlights of our trip. Beautiful rooms and lush nature all around and the beach just a few steps away. The common outdoor kitchen was ...

Plus: Gigi, is a wealth of knowledge and assesses what you are looking for, and then makes recommendations. The rooms have a rustic charm, with a covered balcony. The outside common area (cooking) is ...

Plus: It really was a home away from home! Everything you need is either in your room or in the cummunal areas. You can use a fully equipped kitchen and everything you need for a day on the beach is ...

Minus: For this price, it would be nice if breakfast was included. With a nice breakfast, this place would be absolutely perfect!

Plus: This is an hidden paradise ! Gigi the retreat manager is awesome , always there to give you nice indication and make you feel you are at home away for home ! The big island retreat is the perfect ...

Minus: You need to have a car to really explore the island or be ready to stay in the surrounding area and go around with taxi and tours . but all the other quality of the place makes for it! Be carefull ...

Plus: Gigi the manager was awesome!!

Plus: The location was good but that isn't to the hotel's credit. The hotel is in a nice area. The tennis courts were fantastic.

Minus: The Hotel is in a nice location but it has serious flaws. Rooms look tired. No bedside tables, no reading lamps, telephone handsets from the 90s. No shutout curtain (seriously) so you will be up at...

Plus: This is a very luxurious hotel by our standards and I would recommend it. The rooms are large with sofa and writing table. The bathroom was large with 2 sinks. That pleased my wife! The balcony was ...

Minus: It is very expensive to eat at the hotel. We manged to eat at the canoe house restaurant one evening. The food was excellent as was the service. But to pay $200 for 2 people then ask for a tip between...

Plus: Excellent food at Canoe restaurant. Salads were great.

Minus: Perks

Plus: The valet staff was amazing! Very helpful and always pleasant!

Minus: The room was smaller than expected, as was the bathroom. I have stayed at the Hapuna Prince (suites) for cheaper rates and more space. We were at the Mauna Lani for my son's IM 70.3 race and the ...

Plus: The pool is nice and the grounds are beautiful!! The staff is friendly. Mauna lani is great.

Minus: The hotel its self needs an overhaul. A little dated, but still a favorite

Plus: The hotel was really nice, but the price online is misleading. There are about an extra $75 a day added to the bill, so that was surprising at check out. The hotel was nice, very nice beach, good ...

Minus: The only thing is the added taxes per day is the reason why I wouldn't stay here again, as well as the location. It is very far away from Kona/Hilo. Tour companies will not come and pick you...

Minus: Not my type of place. Not for families, not a good place in Hawaii compared to the other side.

Plus: Open format very close to beach and pools great for relaxing

Minus: Only 1 elevator and it broke while staying in hotel....

Plus: Everything was amazing... the friendly staff, great food, large clean room with a breathtaking view! We couldn't have asked for more!

Minus: Nothing

Plus: Service and food excellent, especially liked coconut weaving with Auntie Mele. Mahalo nui loa to her..I made the extra basket. Would have like more cultural handcraft classes.

Minus: The inner court yard garden unkept....needed weeding and remove dead leaves

Plus: Lobby was beautiful and Canoe Club Restaurant was excellent

Minus: Location bad. Pool food was cafeteria level and no better. Food at bar was sub par as well.

Plus: We stayed Sunday-Weds and it wasn't crowded/busy at all and so relaxing. We loved the grounds of the resort and the open/airiness of the hotel. We walked arounds all the ponds and looked at the fish and enjoyed the cabanas on the beach. Although we didn't as much advantage of it, there are free workout classes (yoga, pilates, etc) and free usage of the snorkel gear, kayaks, and bikes. The shuttles that can take you to the Fairmont, the Shops (with grocery), and the gym/spa was very convenient. Everyone was very friendly at the hotel. We had an ocean view room where we could view the pool area too and we were able to watch the gorgeous sunset from our balcony every night. Our king bed room was very spacious with double sinks. I would definitely stay here again.

Minus: Not a huge deal, but there were some ants in the bathroom and when I left a can of juice out on our coffee table. We also ate at the Honu bar (spelling?) the new bar and it was just the 2nd night it opened. The food and drinks were overpriced for the atmosphere of the bar, which looks like it was put together with random leftover furniture. I think if they invested more into the ambience the food/drink price would be better matched or keep that space as a casual cafe. It would be nice to have a more casual priced restaurant at the resort, where you could grab coffee, drinks, and sandwiches. I felt like the eating options were limited.

Plus: This is apparently a time-share sort of facility. The rooms are spacious and adequately provisioned.

Minus: They charged our credit-card twice for the cost of the accommodation and the reception staff showed little enthusiasm for helping use resolve this ... we had to do the leg work for a screw up that ...

Plus: The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The property was clean with great amenities. Parking was easy.

Plus: It was super clean and the bed was really comfortable.

Minus: Maybe a little more lightening on the walkway from the car park to the apartment.

Plus: The dish washer, microwave, and washer drier were certainly positive features.

Minus: Indoor parker not adjacent to unit. Wi-fi did not work while in the unit and missed several important messages. Wi-fi worked elsewhere, i.e., restaurant, luau show, etc.

Plus: Everything

Minus: Maybe bigger trash cans or dumbster area

Plus: I've stayed here before and I really love to 2 story rooms! The price is well worth it and it is much cheaper than a hotel. (Hotels are a big price for a small room) It's quiet, private ...

Minus: The only thing I don't like is that check out time is so early in the morning. We pay for 2 days but yet we are not even in our room for 48 hours. I can handle not being able to check in until ...

Plus: Nice location, nice room, comfortable bed and great service

Plus: Everything

Minus: Nothing

Plus: STAFF

Minus: IF I HAVE TO MAKE SOME DISLIKE, IT WOULD BE LOCATION.

Plus: It is very spaces, however I was a little disappointed that as a guess that we have to pay for the tennis court.

Minus: not much

Plus: access to other places nearby (walkable to Sheraton and if you can climb a small rock wall, you can get a good shot of sunset)

Minus: It was deceiving to book on the Priceline website. The room accommodates 4 people per all other websites, but when you print out your confirmation, it will only say for 2 people.

Plus: well kept, beautiful, comfortable,

Minus: terrible issues with Wifi

Plus: 1. Location with a spectacular sea front and proximity to stores, eateries and beaches.

Minus: I was under the impression that it has a private beach access but that was my misinterpretation. The nearest beach is about a 7 minute walk.

Minus: Bed description

Plus: Gorgeous well maintained property. Kind and knowledgeable staff. Room 118, beautiful view. I will revommend to my friends!

Plus: View - amazing, size of rooms great.

Plus: Easy parking in garage, located at the sea, balcoby, well equipped appartment.

Minus: The lady from the event desk has been arrogant, unfriendly and did help us at all whereas with rhe previous guests she spent 30 min. We did not need her just where looking for an option to use the ...

Plus: Loved the beautiful view. The roar of the waves. The kitchen amenities were excellent.

Plus: Watching the rolling surf and surfers from balcony, and falling asleep to sound of waves crashing. Our room was very clean and parking easy. About a 25 min drive from airport. Best snorkling beaches ...

Minus: Was good for self cater, but you have to drive to shops, restaurant. Need a car. But for price and location it is 5 stars from us.

Plus: Rooms were large and well laid out. Very comfortable. Quiet, private.

Minus: Not complaining just FYI this is not a new place it's a little outdated and tired so don't be disappointed. Stay away from underground parking it's tight.

Plus: Nice view and the unit was clean.

Minus: The hid-a-bed did not work at all. The coffee and cream were rationed. The parking was far from the unit.

Plus: Rymlig lägenhet med härlig utsikt. Underbar solnedgång varje kväll. Cool saltvattenpool där havets vågor sköljde över. Vanliga poolen var välstädad och fin.

Minus: Hade gärna fått vara sandstrand.

Plus: Ocean front, pretty clean, very spacious apartment. Easy parking. Great location.

Minus: First place smelled like smoke. Clerk said she could not offer another room but eventually gave us another. It was musty smelling but at least no smell of smoke. Shabby carpet. It was someones vacation rental, not hotel room. Nothing wrong with that, just odd after booking hotel. Twin beds uncomfortable.

Plus: Staff was amazing!

Plus: Beds were great

Minus: Hard sell on the timeshare was deplorable showers were rarely above Luke waem

Minus: The 90 minute timeshare presentation that turned into 3 hours.

Plus: Condo was very spacious, grounds well kept

Minus: We were not aware that this was a Time Share complex and so was not what we wanted. It is not a conventional resort / hotel ie no restaurant, bar, shuttle to town, room service etc. and if I had ...

Plus: I liked that the facilities came into our unit to spray for cockroaches and fire ants. My grand daughter was stung by a fire ant. I also like the unit we stayed in, it was by the pond and close to the...

Minus: The bed in the master was a little lopsided.

Plus: The room size, accommodations, and overall layout were quite nice and greatly surpassed my expectations. Don't forget the amazing patio! There was just enough parking for everyone and it is ...

Minus: I have nothing I didn't like.

Plus: Very confortable relaxing unit

Minus: Nothing

Minus: A little dated. Pools were small and no bar.

Plus: Room was spotless, the staff were very responsive! I appreciated the follow-up phone call to make sure I had received a visit from the staff for the items I requested.

Minus: When I booked this hotel with priceline, I was not given advance notice that I would be 'pitched' to attend a timeshare sales event. The staff wasted my time trying different angles to ...

Plus: The location is great, the resort is really nice. We enjoyed the pool, and the whole resort was quiet. The large lanai was a major bonus, and we even had a slight ocean view.

Minus: It would be nice to have drink service at the pool... it seems they have the perfect spot for it. Also, nobody came in to clean or change sheets unless we requested it. We washed our own towels, and took out our trash. A TV in the second bedroom would be nice.

Plus: The room was large, clean and great for a family with kids. Beautiful lanai with dining table to eat meals, large living area to play, 2 spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, and great kitchen with everything we could need.

Minus: Check in at 4pm and check out at 10am is tough with small kids. When I Staff didn't seem too helpful about offering early/late check in options or about having a pack n play available when we checked in.

Plus: The rooms were spacious and very clean. We felt like each unit was like a little home in and of itself. There was also a clubhouse where we could borrow snorkeling and boogie boarding equipment. The landscaping was gorgeous and well maintained.

Minus: The staff was disorganized at our check-in. They charged over $1,300 on my credit card (it was supposed to be $---) for potential damages. They reversed the charge, but didn't inform me or care about the inconvenience it caused me when I called in.

Plus: Location was excellent directly across from a great beach for snorkeling and out of the hub of Kona, so quieter. Inside space and facilities were great.

Minus: The pull out sofa mattress wasn't the best. A bit lumpy, but the main beds were great. Extra toilet rolls would have been helpful too.

Plus: Beach Villas at Kailua-Kona was the perfect location across from a snorkel beach with lifeguard. There were so many different kinds of fish to see and sea turtles, too. The condo was clean, updated ...

Plus: Manager Britt was super nice and helpful, close to beach, shopping mall and has nice pool

Minus: None

Plus: The view from the lanai

Minus: The air conditioner didn't come on the last night we were here.

Plus: The condo provided everything you would need to either stay in and cook, relax, or go outside to snorkel, beach it, pool, boogie boards = everything, plus there was a fresh fruit basket waiting for us...

Minus: It's a small complaint, but would have like to have an eating table inside condo to play games and eat late meals. (Outside was too buggy).

Plus: The condo was very clean. You can sit on the terrace and watch the sunset. A very good snorkeling beach is right across the road. There were beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, toys, etc in the unit. ...

Minus: The air conditioner is on a timer which was a bit annoying although you don't need the ac for the most part.

Plus: Very nicely decorated, modern condo in an ideal location away from the village. Location is ideal with an excellent view of the ocean from the wonderful Lanai. Britt, the property manager, was very ...

Plus: We are birders. The first day we stayed, we birded from the balcony and saw a number of new species for us. The condo was in a convenient location. It had an elevator to get to higher floors.

Minus: Better directions to get to the property by driving. And alternate directions when certain roads were closed.

Plus: It was a well laid out 2 bedroom condo with ocean view from balcony. You don't need aircondition as ocean breeze cross the unit when you open the door. At night, locals often gather at Kahaluu ...

Minus: I saw a large cockroach in the kitchen

Plus: Location

Minus: Construction next door

Plus: I liked being on the mountain to get away at the same time only being 10-15 minutes away from the beach and town. And the cottage was perfect for relaxing, listening to the birds and watching the wild...

Plus: Loved every bit of the place. Very peaceful and homey. Thank you

Plus: It was quiet and in the woods but close to the airport and town.

Plus: Nice cottage, essentially a 1 bedroom house with full kitchen, laundry, satellite TV, BBQ, & hot tub. Enjoyed having the space for our 1 week stay in Kona area, and to be able to cook our own food...

Minus: Location is good for being away from the city, but at same time is a bit isolating. There was no view of sunrise or sunset, nor any spot to walk about in evening.

Plus: Lots of space, well set up. Quiet location. Friendly owners.

Minus: The propane heater is very fiddly. As it is normally quite chilly at night (at 3000 ft altitude), this can be a problem. Hard to find (for the first time) at night.

Plus: All the comforts of home

Plus: Close to everything at Kona. Room was good size, furnishings were comfortable. Staff were courteous and friendly.

Minus: Noise and vibration from machinery, possibly Aircon equipment outside the building. Door on bathroom was a slider that didn't close properly and was poor fit.

Plus: great location in Kona village, if that's what you're looking for. easy access from the airport.

Minus: The staff was outright rude about our request for an extra hour to check out. After spending $1500 at the hotel during our stay, a dose of hospitality at the end would have been nice. Kind of wrecked ...

Plus: Easy to find, welcoming staff, historical displays and shops under one roof, did not feel crowded.

Minus: Couldn't see sunrise or sunset from room.

Minus: Nothing

Plus: Such a quiet place with a stunning view and very well equipped, felt very luxurious with my own balcony and fridge.

Cockroachs all over the place. Dated: built in the 50s still in the 50s. Noise: don't go to bed before the music stops, 10p sun-Thur, 11pm Fri and Sat. It sounds like the band is in the room at night, and the birds are in your room in the morning, 6am Don't stay here, get a VRBO down the road. Not worth staying here. Do not stay here. We didn't goto the luau, you can watch from the bar, and there were kids at the pool, that out shouted the luau, glad we were not paying for it. In room AC was bad, it was over my head and spitting water on me at night. We will never stay there again. Employees were great but didn't make up for the hotel's shortcomings.

Plus: Location: situated right on Al'i drive - comfortable walking distance to most attractions on that road. Beautiful landscaping and the lobby area looks great.

Minus: General Hygiene: The rooms had clean beds, utensils and towels. But that's about it: the bathroom was OLD and had rusted hinges and shower knobs. Felt like being in some horror movie. Parking: The property has far less parking spots compared to the number of units; so the hotel recommends everyone to find parking elsewhere, like the underground parking lot beneath Bubba Gump nearby that costs $5 per night. Connectivity: As many others have noted, Wi-Fi connectivity is only to the lobby area. Although I don't complain on such things, the price charged on these units doesn't justify these compromises. Staying on the third floor and having to heave luggage up the stairs is not fun. But I cannot complain as I know it is beyond them to provide the service to a 3-storey property, so I adjusted.

Minus: Parking

Minus: Poor choice for a KONA rental. Little or no parking, they suggest you park on the street. Only way to rooms on upper floors is to haul your bags up the outside stairs. TV remote was broken and when I ...

Plus: Small studio but roomy enough for a couch, bed and table. Near eating places & ocean. Grounds were clean & well kept. Nice swimming pool.

Minus: I will not stay here again! No place to park! Only 59 spaces for 142 studios. First come first serve. If you arrive late in the day you will be circling the street until you find a space. By then you...

Minus: Clutter

Plus: Editha is the nicest lady! The pillows are awesome. The night sounds are nature & no traffic/city noise.

Plus: Quiet neiborhood

Minus: When I got there the owner added a $50 cleaning fee on top of the reservation (this is more than 1/2 of the night cost paid from the website). This hidden fee was not clear when I booked.

Plus: Nothing!

Minus: I was very disappointed to say the least. I paid for a king size bed, description on Booking.com which was false advertising. No one was there to greet us which would have been ok if I would have ...

Plus: The bathroom was across the basement from the bedroom, requiring a lengthy walk through a cluttered common room

Minus: The facility operator was rude and hung up the phone on my inquiry of being overcharged by $100

Plus: There was nothing that I liked about the place. If I had not prepaid I would have walked out.

Minus: I didn't like that there was no coffee or breakfast offered all although the flyer said that there was. I looked for a coffee maker but found the partial kitchen facility too cluttered and gave ...

Plus: Secluded private house on top of the hill, away from crowds and traffic. You are alone with the nature among singing birds and vast, almost tropical forest! Clean, spacious with your own private bathroom. Very welcoming staff!

Minus: One thing I would mention is the easy entrance door access or maybe even private door entrance. One time we thought we were locked out because there was another guest staying.
