I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While it was nice to have the space for our two families and the oceanfront view was truly beautiful, we encountered several issues with our units. One condo wasn't available despite our booking and the second wasn't as updated as I hoped. However, the location was convenient for exploring the island and the staff made efforts to accommodate us. I might consider staying again, but just be aware that the quality of the units can vary significantly.

The first condo we received was oceanfront and beautiful, but we ended up in a fairway view unit that felt stuffy and dated. We were promised four beds but only found three, which was disappointing.

The front desk staff were helpful in resolving our booking mix-up and made sure we had a place to stay, which was appreciated.

The hotel is right by the ocean, providing lovely views and easy access to the coast. It's conveniently located near shops and the departure point for snorkeling tours.

While the facilities included a nice ocean pool, it closed early and the property itself lacked some expected amenities like a sand beach.

I recently stayed at this resort and overall, it was a decent trip. The location was great for exploring the island, and I appreciated having a spacious unit. However, I did encounter some mix-ups with our booking that made the arrival a bit stressful. It was nice to have a kitchen, but the air conditioning could have been better, especially in the heat.

The resort is conveniently located, making it easy to travel around the island. While it felt a bit dark upon entering, it was a short drive to various stores and attractions.

The amenities were decent, including an adults-only pool which was relaxing, but it could be better if there were more options for families and kids.

We had a bit of a mixed experience at Kanaloa at Kona. The property is very well maintained with lovely ocean view units and large pools, but not everything was up to par. While our unit was spacious and offered beautiful sunset views, we faced several maintenance issues that detracted from our stay.

Rooms

The unit we rented had a fantastic ocean view and was very spacious, but it didn't fully match the descriptions we had seen, including one less bed than advertised.

Service

Though the staff interactions were generally pleasant, there were significant issues with communication regarding maintenance and additional fees that left a negative impression.

Location

7.0

The location is nice, especially being close to the ocean and having access to a small beach, but it felt somewhat isolated as getting to other places required a car.

Dining options nearby were convenient, but we didn't eat at the on-site restaurant so can't comment on that.

The facilities, including the pools, were lovely and well-maintained, but there were issues with some amenities like the air conditioning which added extra charges.

Staying at the resort was a mix of highs and lows. The location is serene, making it a perfect base for exploring the nearby attractions, but I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the unit I rented. The lack of air conditioning was a deal-breaker, and some amenities had hidden fees that felt quite shady. Overall, the view from the unit was stunning, which made up for some of the negatives.

Rooms

The room was huge and had everything I needed supplied, but unfortunately, it was musty and damp, and did not match the advertisement.

I was disappointed to find that air conditioning was not provided unless an extra fee was paid, which felt misleading.

Our stay was a mixed bag. The condo was spacious and had a nice layout, but it was not very clean, with some maintenance issues that left much to be desired. The location was decent, but the experience was marred by frustrating aspects like the lack of air conditioning in one of the units and issues with the cleanliness of the kitchen. Despite these downsides, the layout and space of the condos could be great if they just invested more in proper maintenance.

Rooms

The condos were spacious with a good layout, but cleanliness was a significant issue; the kitchen utensils needed washing before use, and the bed in the master was so hard I couldn't sleep on it.

Service

The check-in process was straightforward, but the overall service felt lacking due to unresolved maintenance issues and miscommunication about our bookings.

While the complex offers multiple pools and other amenities, we didn't use them due to the cleanliness issues and discomfort in our unit.
