"Room was bright and clean. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The grounds and gardens are gorgeous, surrounded by lava rock.The pools were great. The adult pool hardly ever had anyone in it, but even the main pool was never too crowded and always had a great vibe. The food at the restaurants was good but came at a price. The breakfast buffet is not worth it at $37 per person. You're better off ordering from the breakfast menu or using the grab & go option. I would overall recommend eating out in Kailua-Kona rather than at the hotel. The poolside bar is convenient for small bites and drinks while relaxing at the pool. We wanted to attend the Luau (which only runs twice a week) but were told that it was cancelled due to low attendance numbers, which was a real shame. I'm not sure how often that happens or if we stayed during a slow time (end of October). The hotel is conveniently located to the bay where many snorkeling and manta ray tours leave from. We did both and enjoyed them immensely."

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

"Great view. Super convenient and close to shops. Super spacious."

"Clean room and has lots of space. We were in building 6, just cross the street of the parking lot. Good locations, close to shops and beach."

"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."

"We had a 2 bedroom Ocean View condo. It was very affordable for 6 people for 10 days. The condo had plenty of space including a large upstairs bedroom with a full bath with a partial ocean view patio, a bedroom on the middle floor with a patio facing the mountain side, a large living room/dining area, large enough full kitchen, and another large ocean front patio where we comfortably sat all six of us. The room itself though not super updated(but that didn’t matter to us) was very clean, had plenty of amenities such as dishes, cookware, towels/toiletries and additional upon request. The hosts also had extra things such as paddle boards, goggles, a snorkel set and tennis balls available to use which I thought was a lovely extra. The only thing I did not like about the room that I was disappointed about was that the “1 double sofa bed” listed in the ad was an air mattress. I was expecting a pull out couch. When I requested a rollaway bed, they did not have any. The area was quiet, had several community bbqs in which we used regularly and were always able to find an open one that was easy to use. Pools were clean and not overcrowded(we did go during off season in October). The view of the ocean was amazing, although there were a couple palm trees that obstructed the view at sunset. Overall, with 4 adults, a 15 year old and a 7 year old, we really enjoyed the condo and the property. If we return to the area, we would stay here again if it were still affordable and available. "

"From the moment we arrived, we knew this was the perfect house for us. The lush surroundings were exactly what we love, and the view from inside was absolutely stunning. It was peaceful and quiet we especially enjoyed waking up to the sound of birds in the morning. The house was very comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen and great air conditioning. The location was perfect close to the beach, shops, grocery stores, and the farmers market. We’ll definitely be back!"

"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 "
