I chose this hotel because I wanted to live like I was in a condominium. The room was nicely appointed and the interior was lovely. Mornings spent on the terrace were pleasant, and there were parasols and snorkeling sets, so it was a very comfortable stay. I would definitely like to stay again if I have the chance.

Proprty was clean, bed was comfy and is right in the heart of Kona so could walk to restaurants. I am a tea drinker so having a kettle would be good.

Excellent location

Parking in the area was very limited but we were able to check in early just to get a spot. Extremely close to restaurants and shops. Studio was clean and compact the only downside was no good location to plug in my CPAP. Minor, since I slept well without it. Would use again.

Sweet spot!

This is the 2nd time we stayed here! Its a sweet spot that is conveniently located the room was clean andeasy to get into. My only complaint is is the parking situation. There’s not enough parking spots and the ones they have are very small. in the heart of Kona and close to everything.

Spectacular

Really beautiful setting with balcony overlooking the pool and lush tropical courtyard, the website photo doesn't so it justice. Just a 2 minute walk to the main ocean-front boulevard with restaurants and shops. Comfortable bed and everything was clean. The small kitchenette consisted of an induction hotplate and microwave, so you'll probably want to take advantage of the many nearby restaurants. The only downside was limited parking, we had to park across a very busy road. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice unit very very convenient location.

Very nice unit with a nice view of the pool. As other people has stated parking is challenging. But I always found a place in the lot or right next to the property on the street. The bed is comfortable and I slept well. Minor issue with some small ants in the bathroom.owner was very responsive. I would definitely stay here again.
