Jun 13, 2021This is THE HOTEL in Kona. Awesome!
Moved here after 2 nights at the Sheraton South of Airport. Joke of a hotel. I’ve worked in the hotel business for 25 years and have been responsible for up to 10 hotels in a region. I’ve worked for Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Hilton and Hyatt in those 25. I know cleanliness, hospitality and attention to detail. THIS hotel has it all and more. Super friendly staff and clean updated rooms. Amenities to keep you busy for weeks. Snorkel in the on site lagoon with sea turtles! Dolphin Quest on site! Food superb! Parking easy. Tram easy. Elizabeth and Freida were amazing helping us re-book vacation after leaving Sheraton with zero PM program or inspection process for rooms. You spend all this time and money to get here, pick the right hotel. This one. Hilton has a great team at this hotel. Tip of hat Mr. Amos (GM). Thank you.

Great spot for a honeymoon
We went in June 2021 for our honeymoon and had a wonderful time. The rooms are nice, but the amenities really made it a fantastic place to stay. We enjoyed both pools, went paddleboarding in the lagoon, watched gorgeous sunsets on the beach. The staff were all very helpful and professional.

Jun 12, 2021Walking walking walking
Be prepared to spend 30 minutes to get from your room to the car . Place is beautiful but not customer friendly. You have to take a tram that will taken20 min or walk that will take 20 min. No quick get away to your car for flights or reservations . Plan on 30 extra minutes just to exit the property !

Jun 12, 2021Horrible Experience
The hotel is outdated and in disrepair. The room we were assigned the first night was dirty (for example, hair in the sink). I checked in the day before our arrival as soon as I was able using the mobile app. We were assigned room 5315 at that time. The following day, when we arrived, we were told that there was a maintenance issue and the room we were originally assigned was no longer available. We were also told that there were no more one bedroom ocean front suites available to accommodate our reservation. After staying temporarily in one room, we settled on a standard room ocean front with two queen beds. On the second day of our stay, I learned that there was not, in fact, a maintenance issue but instead, another member of our party was given our room! That is completely unacceptable! Our stay started off horribly and nothing was really redeeming thereafter. There was no room service, minimal options for food, and the service was terrible. Will never stay at this hotel again!

Excellent resort!!
Came here to celebrate my honeymoon! This resort is its own oasis! My only complain is that we did not schedule more time to enjoy it! We had full activities planned every day! Just make sure to make time to enjoy the facilities. Also the resort is huge and there is a lot of walking involved and the tram service is best compared to a Disney monorail but make sure to account for time getting around.
