Top Kailua-Kona Hotel Reviews

Kona Coast Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very spacious and the staff where all really sweet and helpful"

Courtyard by Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"I reserved a n oceanfront room and after traveling 6,000 miles we were put in a room with partial view of the ocean. This was very upsetting especially because I paid extra. We met two other people who had the same exact experience and they come annually. It would have been a perfect experience if the room was full oceanfront. We were told “ocean view” is not “oceanfront so I’d call several times to be sure."

Club Wyndham Mauna Loa Village

8/10 Good

"Room was good, but they should stock the room based on the duration of stay"

Aston Kona by the Sea

10/10 Excellent
