Puako hotels from HK$1,604

"Absolutely, hands down, the best stay on the big island. Hapuna beach is the nicest on the island, look it up!"

"This is the best place to stay in Kona, Waikoloa in particular. Situated on a golf course, on a hill, it has a BREEZE and beautiful views. The condos are well kept and had been recently remodeled… this is our third time staying here…7 minutes to Waikoloa Beach and 15 min to Hapuna. Also 30 min to Waimea. Totally recommend this place! It’s legit the best! "

"It was wonderful! We had a great time ,everything was perfect…"

"The place is semi-run down. The staff called us 3x day to try to get us to buy a timeshare. The older rooms were decent and clean but holiday inn caliber. Check in staff not helpful at all. I am Hilton gold and they refused all my requests. Perhaps because of the different tower. Long walks to pools - not for the disabled! Will not return"

"The bell men and women were fantastic. The front desk was very helpful. Mahalo."

"BEST PLACE EVER! This condo was so comfortable, so lovely, so everything! It was actually nicer than it even looks online. We will absolutely be coming here again. Do not hesitate - book it!"

"Unique open atrium layout, great spacious rooms. excellent location with small beach where you could see colourful fish. delicious food."

"It’s a very nice place. The rooms are very nice and comfortable. A resort hotel should be 100% operational. The boats don’t work anymore. The tram only serves two sections of the hotel. The food options are limited and of low quality for the cost. A $50 plate of pasta should never arrive at a table cold. Lunch and dinner options are limited. Paying the price for a meal here should be remembered as amazing, not blah, blah, blah. The breakfast buffet is overpriced. The Luau was a great show, the food was pretty good. Standing in line in the heat for 45 minutes is ridiculous. Elderly people need places to sit in the line. Put some benches along the walkway. The lagoon was amazing. The prices for using water toys is ridiculous. Majority sat unused due to the high cost. Management were very attentive. Carter was especially helpful to address any concerns raised. The staff were very friendly and respectful. "

"My family loved the luau, pools, beach, and balcony off our room. The coffee shop and lanai were great for breakfast. Overall we had an excellent stay."
