"We found The Big Island Rereat to be just as good as the pictures! It was easy to find right off Ali'i drive. Check in and out were both very easy. We stayed in the
Ocean View
room which was just as advertised. There is no AC which is in the room description so there was no surprise. Ceiling fan and to other larger standing fans kept the air moving through the room. There is a common area which has
beach
chairs to use and some snorkel gear and boogie boards as well and an outdoor kitchen...

"It's conveniently located to shopping, and the hotel has a beautiful restaurant located right on the ocean, where you can watch waves crash into the lava rocks. The front desk staff was very kind and courteous. The hotel is renovating, which means it's loud! Trying to lie by the pool while workers grind concrete is NOT what I paid for.
