4/10 Poor

Travis

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
I was extremely disappointed with my recent stay at this property. The advertisement clearly stated it accommodated six people, yet there were only sleeping arrangements for four. This resulted in me sleeping on the couch, which is unacceptable for a 'luxury vacation' that I booked a year in advance. Looking through the guest book, it seems this issue with the sleeping arrangements has been a recurring problem for at least three years, which is concerning. Additionally, I was surprised by unexpected charges for air conditioning which was not mentioned in the original listing. This contradicts the inclusive price I paid through Expedia. Basic amenities were also severely lacking. Having to request essentials like toilet paper from the office detracts from the relaxation expected of a vacation. While the view was indeed lovely, the numerous misleading claims and lack of basic necessities significantly impacted my experience. I would not recommend this hotel to others

The property itself is fine, but I had two major issues. First, there was no air conditioning in the unit I got. There was no indication that some units didn’t have a/c when I booked. It was a total surprise at check in. However if you do get a unit with an a/c, you have to pay to use it. The second huge issue is that they charge you for everything. There’s a hefty cleaning fee you pay when you check in, but they won’t even give you fresh towels without charging you for them. Since they’re condos, they have a washer and dryer, but they only give you 2 packs of detergent and if you use them both and need more, you have to pay for them. Also, the floor was dirty when I got there. I feel like if I’m paying $375 for a cleaning fee, it should be clean to begin with and it’s pretty ridiculous to charge for every little thing on top of the cleaning fee. We ended up leaving early, and I would not stay here again.

We had a great time staying at this property and definitely would choose it again! The location was great, right off the water and close enough to Kailua-Kona as well as a nice shopping center with all the essentials, a weekly farmers market and the best shaved ice we’ve ever had! There is also a movie theater. The community grounds were kept nice and decorated for the holidays! All the staff were very friendly too. The pools were very nicely maintained we mostly went to the ocean pool. Very picturesque and relaxing! The only thing I’d do differently is pay a bit more for an ocean view unit (it really is right on the ocean). Our greenway unit was nice but the way the buildings are designed there is NO BREEZEWAY and fans can only do so much. We made it work since it was December and cooled off at night a bit. If you are traveling there Spring-Fall, definitely pay the extra fee for the air conditioning.

Family getaway

After reading many reviews I was slightly nervous about what we would get. We had a wonderful experience!! The unit we stayed in was clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly. What I liked most was that the facility was quiet. Everyone there was respectful, even in the pool where you would expect chaos. There is a market just up the street with everything you would need if you decided to cook in your unit. The BBQ's that were on site were great! I would definitely stay here again! It's just far enough from the main part of town but also close enough.

The condo floor was dirty (feet almost black when walking barefoot) even though there's a costly cleaning fee for each guest's stay, and the A/C isn't included with the room, it's an additional fee per day to be provided the remote control to use it. This wasn't disclosed anywhere during booking, only disclosed by front desk upon check-in. That feels like scamming tourists.

Fish smell in the kitchen / sink that didn't go away. Place was large but not very clean, you'd think for the large cleaning fee you wouldn't find other people's hair in the bathroom. I cut my reservation down by two nights and they booked me on the fairway, i had ocean view originally. I didn't realize until arriving. Would have canceled completely had i known.

The unit assigned to us was grossly dirty. I was reading reviews before booking and they were mix of good and bad. Unfortunately, our experience was not good at all. I don’t mind an older hotel or building as long as it is clean. But this unit had dead and live insects, sticky and dusty doors (esp the toilet doors), faux leather chair peeling all over, stained bathtubs and stain on bedsheets. We had to check out early and find another place to stay. I just hope they’d refund our cleaning fee considering we only stayed 2 out of 7 days of our booking, and also the cleaning fee dows not make sense for us because the unit was not clean when we checked in.

Location and scenery: A . This is truly A beautiful property. The staff was welcoming and kind. Our family had a fantastic time, once we got in! However, we specifically requested AC and were given a unit with broken AC. We asked for fans on three occasions and we're told they would be brought over. Never arrived. Reported a short in a light that was not addressed. And no one was there for checkin when we arrived with no communication about how to checkin after hours. So, communication and follow through on requests needs work. Those issues aside, the unit itself was fantastic. Spacious and clean. Easily living for a family bringing three teenagers. And that view... Wow. Will stay here again, but be more aware of the issues listed above.

Overall great stay.

The unit was very comfortable, great location, fantastic view from the room and very nice grounds. The only thing I wish they were more transparent about was the extra fees. When I booked, it was not easy to see that they charged for AC on a daily basis. Now it looks like they may be charging extra for daily electricity in general. Watch the fine print. The AC was definitely needed in June.

3 stars, overall, is for the ocean view from our room. But... The shower drain in the bedroom shower was clogged, so water would fill up and drain slowly. We were told that maintenance came by, but it was not fixed A pile of ants clustered and feeding on something on the floor of the shower stall in the bathroom in the bedroom when we first arrived Dirty, greasy smudges on some of the kitchen cabinet handles and back patio screen doors. And some dishes & utensils were not very clean Caked on dirt and grease on the tv remote control that doesn't work (and it was missing a battery). Smudges and drops of some type of liquid on some mirrors and and wall areas Locks on some of the screen doors were broken One of the bedside lamps did not work We asked for an extra fan, and the very nice grounds lady brought us one, but just before bedtime we discovered that it did not work, We were charged the cleaning fee for a 3-bedroom suite, even though we stayed in a 1-bedroom suite. We were told it was because we booked via Expedia. The bed was hard, which wasn't great for my shoulders, since I'm a side-sleeper. The neighborhood is not very walkable

Overall plenty of space for the family as it was more like a condo than a room. Frustrated with hidden fees or items that were not as transparent as they could have been. Room AC did not work which made it hot in the middle of the summer. The front desk did apologize and refund the AC fee which helped lesson the frustration. The resort is pretty with multiple pools, one of which is right next to the ocean. I give it a mid review overall. Communication could have been better but I do appreciate some resolve and apology over our concerns.
