"Property was well kept and the room we stayed in was quite spacious and clean. A pool was right outside our room for easy access and even though the pool was a bit busy at times, we couldn't hear it from our rooms. We stayed in building 1 room 5. Great room and kitchen. All utensils that we needed were there. We would definitely go back to this resort in the future. My whole family enjoyed it."

Big Island Retreat

10/10 Excellent
"We really loved our stay here. The location was great as you could easily walk down to the beach and back, having parking and a hose to wash the sand out as well as access to borrow many recreational stull at the home was awesome. We got upgraded for free to a slightly larger room which was really nice and unexpected. Nights were quiet and the bed was comfy. Only improvement in my opinion is maybe adding AC (even a small standing unit) may help. The heat made it a bit hard to sleep but nothing a quick cold shower or a dip in the ocean can't fix. Overall, It was a really nice place to stay, we will definitely stay here again when visiting the Big Island/Kona area."
