An excellent stay in the heart of Kailua-Kona. A lower star rating due to less elaborate facilities; the only thing missing is the onsite bar and sauna. Great pool and spa, good gym and free breakfast! Restaurants and bars a minute’s walk away. Will book again.

The front desk staff were so friendly, nice, and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. The pool area looked a little rough, but we did not use those facilities. Complimentary breakfast was a nice bonus that started early. I would stay again.
