"Property has everything one needs to do own meals. Clean w/ Hawaiian motiff in rooms. Staff very helpful. 2nd stay here. Not sure what to do with trash- no instructions or obvious dumpsters nearby. took 2 days to figure out TV- probably operator challenged. Lots of options to watch- once I figured out how to get them....."

10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely Phenomenal resort! I was there celebrating my 50th birthday and they went above and beyond making my trip special! I even saw dolphins from our hotel room with an epic view of the ocean. I could not have asked for a better gift! We used the adults only pool, ate a couple of meals at the small restaurant on site, walked to the beach (so close), rented snorkel gear. We didn’t get a chance to use the transportation they offered to go to local spots, because we had our own car, but loved that they had that. Free parking too, that was wonderful! Tori was very sweet, helpful with great communication. Making my stay just perfect. I didn’t get a chance to get a spa treatment but I’m sure that would have been heavenly too Very grateful and will highly recommend Koloa Landing Resort!"

"I would just second all of the positive comments by the prior guests in their VRBO reviews of this well-maintained property in a beautiful, convenient location. But I'll emphasize two things that stood out to me. First, the easy and responsive communication with our host, Ian. He was quick to respond to messaging, answering with a phone call - so refreshing these days! And quick to address two small issues. Second, to relate what a pleasure it was in the morning to sip coffee and enjoy our bowl of cereal from the screened-in front porch - enjoying the feel of the sea breeze, the sound of the ocean surf a short distance away and the view of the boogie boarders riding the waves. Can't imagine a much better experience on this magical island."
