Top Kailua-Kona Hotel Reviews

Holua Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Will return."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Kailua-Kona by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our family loved the location of this Holiday Inn as it was walking distance to everything in the core of Kona. It was a 2 min walk to the main street where we accesses all the shops, market, and beaches. Each time I visit Kona I fall in love a little bit more with this ocean side town!"

PACIFIC 19 Kona

8/10 Good

"Location, Location, Location, it is in an excellent location close to everything you need. The hotel property was well taken care of, the rooms were clean, we had a nice view of the bay from our balcony. The room had good working a/c. The pool area was nice. The parking spaces can be a little tight. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it. Nice clean hotel in an excellent location at a reasonable rate."

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."
