Royal Kona Resort

8/10 Good

"The place is on the beach and within walking distance of everything that you may need. It is a nice central location forall things Kona"

Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village

8/10 Good

"The suite in Ocean Tower was great. The amenities were excellent as well. Kids enjoyed a lot. It takes a long time to get in & out of the resort because the tram is very slow & the canal boats are out pf serbice. We wasted a lot of time getting in & out."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Kailua-Kona by IHG

8/10 Good

"The location of the hotel is very good. Close to the main street and sites. The hotel room was a nice size. The towels were gray and dingy. The breakfast had a good variety but it was very hard to find a seat. There are not enough tables for everyone to sit. A lot of people took their breakfast to their rooms. There was no cold water offered at breakfast. You had to get it from the gym. The pool and hot tub were nice, although there were a few bugs in the pool. Parking was $15/night."

Fairmont Orchid

8/10 Good

"This property is certainly has comfortible rooms and excellent soaps and lotions in the rooms. Maid service 2x's per day is excellent! Where the property could use improvement: cleaner pools, with 24/7 access pools water feels like a lot of bodies have made the water mucky. Access to the Ocean bay is far too hot late in the afternoon and again the water is not clear. Maybe access in the morning?? Food is average and this would include Brown's their 5 Star restaurant. The view is beautiful, but the catch of the day was on the dry side and the desserts were average. Last item, washer/ dryer access. Loved the fact washer & dryer service was included in the resort fee, but 1 washer and 1 dryer on floors 1 and 3 for XXX number of guests.... impossible to get a load of laundry done! Need to invest in a washer/dryer room with at least a dozen machines. I would also recommend a 4th of July BBQ for guests with a some entertainment?? give guests a few options beside the Kona parade/fireworks and the rodeo in Waimea. Would I stay here again? Yes, but now i know what i know, and can plan around short comings of this property."

Aston Kona by the Sea

8/10 Good

"There was several disruptions while staying there. They shut off the water unexpectedly twice, once without warning, but both times left my wing without functioning restrooms. There was major construction during my stay without warning. Likewise they entered to spray for pests without my consent. Nice property but very poorly managed…"
