Top Kailua-Kona Hotel Reviews

Club Wyndham Kona

10/10 Excellent

"we loved our stay! The staff was very accommodating! If we didn't understand how something worked, for example, putting out the trash, they were very patient with us. Anytime we ask for something, it was given to us right away!"

Kanaloa at Kona by OUTRIGGER

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful condo and convenient washer and dryer inside the condo itself. We had a partial ocean view and it was absolutely breathtaking. Very close to so many places and only 30min from the airport"

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Kailua-Kona by IHG

8/10 Good

"Rooms were clean and spacious. Had two beds and a sofa that turned into a bed. Completed with a small sink, microwave and nice bathroom."

Aston Kona by the Sea

10/10 Excellent

"Loved being right on the ocean front. The property was extremely well maintained. Everyone was very friendly"

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."

Holua Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was a very nice place. I was actually pleasantly surprised considering the price was more in line with a hotel rather than a resort. I did not realize though, that it is a time share and i was asked to attend a 90 minute presentation which i did not go to. I would stay there again with no hesitation."

Big Island Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"This was a quick layover before heading to the other side of the island for our son’s wedding. We enjoyed being tucked into the tropical setting g bit still a quick walk to the beach. Really adorable place, clean and comfortable. As with many island accommodations there were only fans and breezes through open windows. And there were fun critters to keep us company."

Club Wyndham Mauna Loa Village

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 stay we love hawaii"

Royal Sea Cliff Kona by OUTRIGGER

8/10 Good

"Our room was lovely, very spacious for a 1 bedroom apartment. The grounds were lovely and well maintained. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. We didn’t have a car, so we had to catch the local bus to the nearest shops. The bus was free which was an extra bonus. The Royal Sea Cliff is a nice resort."
