I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the location was excellent, just a short drive from great snorkeling spots and close to shopping. The room was spacious with a nice kitchen and a big balcony. However, it wasn't cleaned daily with fresh towels, which was a disappointment. Overall, I felt it provided good value for money, but some areas need improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, with its clean and comfortable rooms along with a really fantastic ocean view. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made me feel welcomed. However, the location next to a busy freeway made it a bit noisy at times, and the dining options could use a bit more variety.

Overall, my stay was quite enjoyable! The rooms were spacious and had everything we needed, which made for a comfortable experience. The location was a bit further from shopping and dining than I would have preferred, but having a car made it manageable. The service was friendly, but I did find myself needing to go back and forth to the front desk a bit more than I'd like. Free parking was definitely a plus, and the amenities like tennis courts and volleyball were fun!

I had a lovely time at this hotel. The location is truly excellent, just a short drive from beautiful snorkeling beaches and historic Kona. The room was spacious and had everything I needed, although it felt a bit dated and could use a refresh. On the downside, I encountered a lot of bugs while trying to cook in the kitchenette, which was frustrating. Overall, it was convenient and comfortable, especially with free parking.
