Top 'Ai'ōpio Beach Hotel Reviews

PACIFIC 19 Kona

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place. The staff was kind and very competent . The room was very clean, comfortable and quiet. The beds were extremely comfortable. The bathroom was very nice and the shower head pressure was fantastic. It is not beach or ocean front, but is a very good choice for a night when you arrive or before you leave. Or as a central point to explore out from. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Kailua-Kona by IHG

8/10 Good

"Property was nice. In a good location. Staff was very helpful. What I didn’t like was not enough seating in breakfast area. Breakfast area was open and had birds attacking your plate if left unattended. The birds were also on the serving trays and tables. Unsanitary"

Oceanfront Home | Gated Kona Bay Estates | AC in Bedrooms. Blue Water

10/10 Excellent

"The house was very accommodating. It features an open air main floor housing the kitchen, dining, and living room. With the large openings, we stayed cool and comfortable. A first floor bathroom was available. The house held many pool toys and beach toys in the main floor closet. The first level bedroom was accommodating and its were the elderly couple that joined us stayed. A/C worked great in all the rooms. The laundry on the main floor was a great feature. The second floor had two suites. First suite was comfortable and had its own bathroom. The second suite (second floor) was massive with two additional bedrooms. It had the best view from the balcony and held a family of 5 with ease.The house was clean and well stocked. The view of the rocks and ocean were breathtaking from the main floor and second. Third floor bedrooms had a beautiful 360 view and it was an awesome place to watch the fireworks. The pool was saltwater and temperature was perfect. While we didn’t use the hot tub much, it worked well and was accommodating. The property had plenty of space for our party of 9. The host answered questions in a timely manner. Make sure to walk to the seawall to the baby beach if you stay here. We did have the luxury of exploring the tide pools in front of the property before the tide was high. We discovered many life forms! Including crabs, snails, eels, and much more. The chefs kitchen was well stocked with appliances and we cooked many meals while on the island"

Luxury Oceanfront Estate

10/10 Excellent

"The El Niño waves were crashing against the shoreline, providing delightful background music our whole stay. Beds were very comfortable. The pool and deck were great! The living area plenty big for our whole crew. Kitchen was well stocked. There were spices and condiments, lots of towels and paper goods, plus closets full of pool/sand toys. Although they were working to replace an AC unit, they brought in portables and were very responsive to all questions. The golf cart was a big hit, easier to park downtown."
