We loved the property, size of rooms and balcony. Don the Beachcombers restaurant served excellent food, and the Mai Tai’s super delicious. The pool area was perfect for a few hours of sun. Definitely would go back for a stay!!

Rooms did not look like photos online. Staff was unable to help with concerns we have. Not clean, did not have basic amenities and would not recommend as a place to stay.

Located in the best oceanfront location. Unfortunately, the hotel’s main building where I stayed, is old and tired and needs renovations. The restaurant in the lobby has a stellar location, but the dishes are pretty staid and unimaginative. I do fully appreciate that their daily hotel rates represents the overall situation there, and on that basis, it’s an affordable option that’s acceptable.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We are working on renovations at the resort, starting with the Lagoon Tower. We will update the Alii and Bay Tower once Lagoon is complete! We hope to welcome you back again in the future on your next visit to Kona!
