Wonderful secret spot
Away from hustle and bustle yet so easy to drive to all destinations
Relaxin the Lanai either early in mornings or at night is so refreshing after a spot of tourism
Kitchen is amazing and so handy as is the laundry
Thank you Randy and Alison for a amazing stay and bananas

A gem of an accommodation find near the top of the Big Island, only a 40 minute drive from the Kona airport. We travelled around the Big Island for six nights and this property was the most comfortable, modern, quiet, and convenient. The staff were extra helpful as well. The motel has a humble exterior, but we were delightfully surprised once inside our room.

Having read the reviews I expected theThe Inn at Kulaniapia Falls to be a nice place to stay, and our experience certainly exceeded our expectations. To get to the Inn involved a scenic 20 minute drive through narrow paved country road and beside a coffee plantation. When we arrived at the Inn we were presented with a delightful location overlooking the spectacular falls and pool below. The staff at the Inn were ever so helpful and friendly, and the accommodations were very comfortable.

Probably the best resort we have stayed in, in all our travels & we have been around!
We were upgraded to the beach front suite which was absolutely stunning, luxurious & very very spacious, not to mention the ocean views & sounds of waves crashing to put you to sleep each night.
The private beach is superb & like the resort itself is not overcrowded like many other mainstream resorts.i would come back in a heart beat.

It was a beautiful place to stay and you couldn't get any cliser to the water. The manager Brian and his wife Timomi were marvellous along with the owner Cheryl.

Great facilities and apartments, just wish I had realised how big the resort is as we were staying with friends and they were a car drive away.
Also parking is super expensive.

Friendly and professional staff, eco-friendly approach, clean and convenient facilities, comfortable bed, restaurant and takeaway options within walking distance, secure onsite parking. This hotel has a nice relaxed feel to it. Really good value for money.

The room came with an amazing view and had good facilities. We unfortunately didn't get a chance to use the hot tub but it would've been lovely with the sunset. The kitchenette was well stocked and the room and hostel was very clean and well kept. Would definitely recommend for someone to stay here.

Property could do with a good renovation but prob one of the best in Hilo. It’s tight next to an abandoned hotel and homeless/ rough sleepers are all over the place.
We chose to self park our rental which was offsite in a sketchy gravel parking lot. This was not attended and had heaps of pot holes. There were also a lot of homeless people sleeping in their car.
In saying all that. The staff were amazing and accommodating with any and all requests we had. Very friendly all of them just let down...
