Ko'a Kea Resort on Po'ipu Beach

Ko'a Kea Resort on Po'ipu Beach

10/10 Excellent
"The Koa’Kea was perfect! We’re not typically “resort people,” so we chose Koa’Kea because we loved the idea of a smaller, boutique hotel—and it ended up being exactly what we were looking for. We ate at both the pool bar and the sushi bar and were so impressed with the food and drinks. The staff was also wonderful and helped us with every request (and I feel like I asked a lot of questions!). Everyone was incredibly kind and accommodating. We absolutely loved our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to come back!"
