Puako Holidays from £1,748

We stayed at the Kona Islander Vacation club for a week during our family vacation. If you are looking for a tropical vacation spot that is affordable and within walking distance of shopping and restaurants this is it. The condos were clean, and the property is well maintained. We use the pool on hot tub just about every night, it was a great way to end the day. The grounds are very relaxing there. We had one minor thing happen. When we arrived the air conditioner to our condo kept turning itself off every 20 seconds which made our condo very hot.. So I called the number that was given to us and maintenance came up and they fix the problem. Other than that, we didn’t have any major issues with the condo. If you want your towels and toilet paper or trash bags refurbished, you just have to call them and leave a message and they bring it up to you that day. The kitchen had a refrigerator and a microwave and toasters and coffee pot, it also came with all the dishes that you needed plates cups silverware all those things as well. And paper towels. The only other thing to mention is that parking can be an issue. They have 100 parking spots. But there is 150 units. So if you arrive a little later towards the day, the parking spots will be full so they ask you to park up there by the street where the gravel area is. And sometimes that was full as well. So a couple of times we had to park down the street. We would definitely stay there again.

Traveled with our little family. Overall very satisfied with our stay. The check in process, the property, the communication and check out was all a breeze. The unit was great, clean and spacious. Only saw one cockroach on the last day outside near our door. Which I’m guessing is not a big deal for Hawaii. The only thing I would wish for is having the most basics in the kitchen, like salt, pepper and cooking oil. Also, having more laundry detergent available would be ideal. I ended up going to the office, which is not on site, to ask for extra and they gave me some extra no problem.

I have been here once before. It’s a lovely property and the staff is great. What is unfortunate is that they changed their food/coffee. They used to have a little coffee bar where you were able to get great drinks such as matcha and they had a great restaurant. They have changed the restaurant and the food is not as great. Also very overpriced for the quality of food you’re getting. It’s better to go off property for food. They did great renovations but we had to call someone to come clean the vent in our bathroom because chunks of debris were falling from it. The manta deck is still under renovation so there was no place to view the manta rays and the light they shine in the water wasn’t operating. I’m sure that won’t be a forever thing though.

Clean and large rooms. Beach front. Nice open lobby. Pleasant staff

It was a 9 out 10 the only thing was the parking guest can only park in parking stalls without numbers because there’s residence that live there so finding a parking spot with no number is slim pickings but besides that the place is amazing kitchen was perfect. Everything we needed room was a 10 beautiful property had an amazing time. Quiet not a place for small kids real relaxed would stay there again no questions asked
