"Check-in was smooth despite a system issue, and I didn’t have to wait long. However, my room had a very strong sewage smell. I initially thought the smell would go away, but it didn’t. I also noticed the carpet was wet. At first, I figured they might have just cleaned the carpets, but considering the severe odor, that clearly wasn't the case. It became obvious the room had suffered some sort of water damage. Given this condition, it’s highly likely the hotel management was already aware of the issue. I couldn't help but feel they shouldn't have assigned or sold this compromised room in the first place. I contacted the front desk, and while they responded quickly and the room change was handled efficiently, the initial experience was quite unpleasant. Aside from that, the facilities were acceptable considering the building’s age."

"Very clean and spacious units. Very nice location. Friendly staff."

"Loved our time at Royal Kona. Beautiful property with excellent service! The food at Don’s was amongst our favourite meals during our trip. Will definitely return! Mahalo! "

"Five stars all around. A great stay walking distance Magic Sands while also very accessible to Kona. Would come back any time!"

"We had a magical family gathering at Hale Akala, an historic home with uncommon grace and charm. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook for our group of 7. There was nothing we hoped to find available that wasn't provided. Lisa was a welcoming host and had great suggestions for how to spend our time there."

"The view from this house is just unbelievable! You will never get tired of it. It is close to everything. There are beaches nearby, but you could easily be content enjoying the salt water pool. A house to remember."

"We had a wonderful time at the Big Island Retreat! It is for an adult who is seeking some chill time, tucked away in the trees, birds to watch, and feel the ocean breeze. Recommend for people who are okay without AC (went in March and wind was enough to keep us cool and sleep well), who are okay with quiet hours (I loved them because the sound does carry which makes ocean hearing good), and who want to spend most of their time outside or off exploring. This was perfect for our needs because we had plans to go and explore everyday and then come back just to sleep. We enjoyed not being on a big expensive resort and felt more naturally placed in the area. Our room had a bathroom, a sink, a mini fridge, a coffee pot, and dishes. There is a communal grill and larger fridge with a communal dining table. Washer and dryer available in the main public space. The public space has an open air roofed garden which is quite beautiful. We saw lots of birdies and geckos. "
