"Nice room."

"The resort, staff and amenities were all outstanding. We visited this resort back in 1997 and returned 2026 and really enjoyed our time there."

"Love this place! Great location "

"Happy"

"Room very clean and spacious. Staff was courteous and kind. Within walking distance to restaurants and shops. Nice you didn’t have to find a park and constantly have to pay for parking. Charged $15.00 a day which is very cheap for the location of the hotel to downtown. I would stay here again. "

"Beautiful resort in a stunning, peaceful location. Spacious grounds, excellent service, and a calm luxury vibe without feeling stuffy. The beach and lagoon are perfect for relaxing, and the sunsets are incredible. Rooms are comfortable and well maintained. A great balance of resort amenities and laid-back island feel would happily return"

"Rooms and facilities were very clean. The staff was wonderful!! Our room was spacious, had everything we needed, and had a beautiful view of the ocean, perfect for watching sunsets from the balcony. The area is safe and close to shipping and restaurants. LOVED our stay here. Will be back when we come back to the Big Island."
