"My stay with Kona Coast Resort was amazing, we enjoyed our stay. Rooms were spacious and the fully equipped kitchen was helpful. We were very comfortable and the restaurant attached to the resort is tasty. We were suprised to have our own washer and dryer and 2 full bathrooms. Our backyard was beautiful and relaxing with our own personal grill. The staff was attentive and made sure our needs were met. 3 hot tubs, 2 pools, and 2 kiddie pools made the stay amazing because it is accommodated. The location where it is at is wonderful because it is 15 minutes away from the actual touristy spots which made our stay more cozy. The stay was amazing and I look forward to book again."

"The property was spotless, I was very impressed. The food was good, the waiters/waitresses were hospitable. Unfortunately, I was charged twice for my meal. It charged to my room and my debit card (I explained I wanted my debit card charged not the card on file for the room). I had to get one of the charges canceled. I was given a resort gift card but when I tried using it, I was told I could not. I have no idea how I’ll be able to use it since it was supposed to be for outrigger locations. Lastly there was a leak in the wall which we went to the registration desk to inform them. The young lady never sent anyone to look. After two hours we called maintenance, the gentleman that answered sent someone. They said we would need to be relocated. They upgraded the room to a suite for our troubles. I truly appreciated that. The pools were wonderful, they even had an adult only side. The views on the property were beautiful. Overall, my mom and I enjoyed the trip, it was quite relaxing."

"Maka Nui is a beautiful house, overlooking the green landscape of Captain Cook and blue waters of the Pacific. It easily fit our extended family for a family get-away, and was a wonderful and relaxing base with which to explore Kona and the rest of the Big Island. The location in Captain Cook was convenient to groceries and some restaurants, while still being close enough to Kona for snorkeling cruises and surf lessons. Arrival and check-in was easy, and the host was responsive to all of our questions. The house is well apportioned with bedrooms and bathrooms. We could have spent the entire time on the lanai, looking over the landscape below. It was an absolute treat."

"Our stay at Gingerhill Farm Retreat was a unique and grounding experience. We stayed in the Bamboo cabin with an outdoor kitchen, shower, and sink, all supplied with propane and warm water, along with a clean compost toilet. The space was designed as an open lanai, allowing for natural cross-ventilation. We never needed the fan. The cabin was surrounded by lush vegetation, with the sounds of the jungle creating a vivid atmosphere at night and in the early morning. The common areas include a terrace overlooking the ocean beyond the tree line, offering beautiful sunset views. The staff was attentive and supportive throughout our stay. We also had the honor of meeting the owner, Ms. Mayumi Oda, often referred to as the “Matisse of Japan,” whose vision promotes healthy living and environmental awareness. This experience offered a rare balance between natural living and everyday comfort. It felt less like a stay and more like an immersion into a different way of being."

"It was a nice stay with a bedroom separated from the kitchen by a large barn door. The driveway was narrow but typical for the area and we could park right in front of the apartment. It had a full-sized refridgerator but no ice tray and no microwave. Except for the occasional barking dog it was quiet and the coqui frogs sang us to sleep."

"This B&B was the best part of my stay on the Big Island. It really felt like you were warmly invited to someone’s home. Hannah, the innkeeper, is a true gem of a human being and brings a special peace and loveliness to the space. When one of my excursions got unexpectedly canceled, I decided to have a lazy day at the property: soaked in the hot tub, took a long shower in the outdoor lava shower, and read on the quiet and peaceful lanai that had a fantastic view overlooking the coastline, had several slices of delicious cake that was offered as part of the afternoon snack. I would absolutely come back."

"We spent a glorious 10 days in this little "Tree House" to celebrate our 40th Anniversary. The room and environs were very clean, LaRissa, the Caretaker was very helpful, we loved the outdoor kitchen and having a washer and dryer. The constant visits from the beautiful little geckos outside and lovely birds with their distinct calls, and the incredible view were all fabulous. For us, the location was ideal, very quiet, near the City of Refuge, coffee and chocolate farms. Loved the rural environment. We will definitely be returning next April."

"The house is very spacious and was perfect for our family of five adults and three children. The kitchen is large and well equipped. Nice bbq on the lanai. The huge upstairs bedroom has a great view of the bay. It's got two trundle beds and two double beds, a couple of chairs and the TV. The other three bedrooms are downstairs. Note: one bathroom is connected to a bedroom and the other bathroom is in the hall downstairs. There is no bathroom upstairs. There is an outside shower, though. There is an A/C unit downstairs and upstairs. There are ceiling fans in every room.Anna, our host, was there to greet us and responded immediately to a couple of minor issues. She was very accommodating to our arrival and departure. The house is an easy walk to Manini beach park. It's a rocky beach, but has decent snorkeling. Other (sandy) beaches are nearby but require a car. Kayak rental is very close and we paddled over to the Captain Cook monument for some very nice snorkeling.This part of the island is a natural setting, prepare for insects and wildlife. The bird songs in the morning and the frog calls (not a croaks) all night were wonderful to us, but if you need absolute quiet you may want to use earplugs. The teeny mosquitoes may find you outside (no problem inside if you keep the door closed) but insect repellent deters them well. Our family loved watching the geckos all around the property. Real Hawaii atmosphere here. No crowds. Mahalo, Anna, for a wonderful stay. We'll return!"
