Kahaluu-Keauhou Hotels, Kailua-Kona

"Room was bright and clean. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The grounds and gardens are gorgeous, surrounded by lava rock.The pools were great. The adult pool hardly ever had anyone in it, but even the main pool was never too crowded and always had a great vibe. The food at the restaurants was good but came at a price. The breakfast buffet is not worth it at $37 per person. You're better off ordering from the breakfast menu or using the grab & go option. I would overall recommend eating out in Kailua-Kona rather than at the hotel. The poolside bar is convenient for small bites and drinks while relaxing at the pool. We wanted to attend the Luau (which only runs twice a week) but were told that it was cancelled due to low attendance numbers, which was a real shame. I'm not sure how often that happens or if we stayed during a slow time (end of October). The hotel is conveniently located to the bay where many snorkeling and manta ray tours leave from. We did both and enjoyed them immensely."

"Great view. Super convenient and close to shops. Super spacious."

"The condo was spacious and clean; had everything you would ever need in the kitchen. Great ocean front view. Beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie boards were in the closet."

"Very nice"

"Loved this condo! We had fun listening to the records while relaxing in the evenings. The rental is stocked with everything you need for the beach. The tiki decor is very thoughtfully selected and so much fun. It’s exactly as pictured and very clean and comfortable.Though there is no A/C, we had a nice breeze through the unit. We would happily stay here again in the future."

"We had a 2 bedroom Ocean View condo. It was very affordable for 6 people for 10 days. The condo had plenty of space including a large upstairs bedroom with a full bath with a partial ocean view patio, a bedroom on the middle floor with a patio facing the mountain side, a large living room/dining area, large enough full kitchen, and another large ocean front patio where we comfortably sat all six of us. The room itself though not super updated(but that didn’t matter to us) was very clean, had plenty of amenities such as dishes, cookware, towels/toiletries and additional upon request. The hosts also had extra things such as paddle boards, goggles, a snorkel set and tennis balls available to use which I thought was a lovely extra. The only thing I did not like about the room that I was disappointed about was that the “1 double sofa bed” listed in the ad was an air mattress. I was expecting a pull out couch. When I requested a rollaway bed, they did not have any. The area was quiet, had several community bbqs in which we used regularly and were always able to find an open one that was easy to use. Pools were clean and not overcrowded(we did go during off season in October). The view of the ocean was amazing, although there were a couple palm trees that obstructed the view at sunset. Overall, with 4 adults, a 15 year old and a 7 year old, we really enjoyed the condo and the property. If we return to the area, we would stay here again if it were still affordable and available. "

"We had a WONDERFUL stay, rooms were comfortable and super clean!! You cannot see the ocean from the surfer room, but there is a wonderful outdoor kitchen/Lanai just up the stairs where we could see a mildly obstructed view of the ocean. We will def be back! "

"Pleasant people and accommodating. Will go again "

"I have to say I was a little worried about staying here reading some of the posts. The lady at the gate was super nice and welcoming. The host was super friendly and the check in was a breeze. Now onto the house! The view and layout of the house was amazing. The kids loved the pool and fish ponds. The master bed toilet is a little funky and doesn’t work perfect but still worked. I guess the downside to the house is once your in it you really don’t want to go to the beaches haha "
