Kona Paradise hotels in Captain Cook from HK$1,275

"Comfortable and friendly/responsive staff. Will stay again. Beware the time share sales pitch though!"

"staff response quickly and the service is great"

"Overall, my accommodations were spacious. I was a solo traveler and had two bedrooms as well as a full kitchen, living room, 2.5 baths, and a laundry area. The resort is towards the south end of Ali'i Drive. In general, you would probably need a car if you plan to stay here since it is a bit of a hike to get out to Ali'i drive and then over to the shopping center in Keauhou. With a car, you are five minutes to the shopping center for groceries; six minutes to the beach and 12 minutes to the Kona Village tourist area. In that I had a rental car, I found everything to be easily accessible. I believe this resort also doubles as a timeshare facility. Thus, I sense that, if I were traveling with my wife, I would have been cajoled to sit through a sales presentation. Thankfully this was not the case and I had more time to spend on my vacation!"

"Amazing breakfast with healthy, beautiful local fruits . Gracious hosts with a beautiful home with ocean views, and sounds of nature. "

"The condo was spacious and clean; had everything you would ever need in the kitchen. Great ocean front view. Beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie boards were in the closet."

"The room was spotless, staff was exceptional. Breakfast every morning was top notch. The wildlife from the Lanai every morning and Animal Kingdom moment."

"We loved our stay at Dragonfly Ranch. The location is out of the way but perfect for seeing the beauty and splendor that is Hawaii. The people are kind and interesting. It's not for everyone. You are quite immersed in nature. There will be geckos in your room and the birds and insects are right outside. It's almost like camping with a comfy bed. "

"I loved my stay in the bamboo cabin at Gingerhill Farms! The staff was so sweet and helpful and the cabin suited my purposes perfectly. The grounds are a gorgeous lush forest full of fruit trees that is so lovely to walk around. I would recommend it to everyone who has an appreciation of nature and the outdoors :) "

"Pleasant people and accommodating. Will go again "
