Historic Kailua Village serves up a delicious slice of Hawaiian royal history along Kailua Bay's turquoise waters. Stroll the oceanfront Alii Drive to discover cultural treasures like Hulihee Palace and the ancient coral stone walls of Mokuaikaua Church.

Most attractions sit within easy walking distance along flat Alii Drive. While public transit is limited, rental cars give you freedom to explore beyond this charming historic district.
This artsy mountain village feels like stepping back in time, with century-old wooden storefronts housing galleries along a single main street.

Most galleries and cafes close by 4 PM, so plan morning visits for the best experience. Vacation rentals and B&Bs in converted plantation homes make for charming stays. A rental car is essential for exploring the winding roads and reaching beaches just 15 minutes downhill in Kailua-Kona.

Kahaluu Bay offers world-class snorkeling in crystal-clear waters just steps from the sand. Tropical fish dart through the protected reef while the historic Kuemanu Heiau temple ruins provide cultural context above the shore. The "Little Blue Church" creates a perfect photo opportunity against dramatic black lava rock formations. Pack water shoes and reef-safe sunscreen for a day exploring underwater wonders.

Mango Sunset is situated on a hill in a lovely coffee plantation. It’s 15 or 20 minutes from town. The sunsets are amazing and breakfast in the morning with French pressed coffee is delicious! Heidi (host) makes her own sourdough! She and husband Dan are naturals at hospitality.
Beach is not good. Very small swimming area. Lots of rocks even there. Need reef walkers. Hapuna beach state park is about 15 miles north of this hotel. That is a great beach.
Such an incredible stay! Just returned and it was everything I wanted in our vacation. Such a relaxing resort, beautiful grounds, amazing rooms, two large pools, plenty of space to roam around, beautiful pond with ducks, bikes available to bike around, delicious food, an awesome gym, snorkeling right from the shore….I can go on and on! We were so sad to leave and wish the Rosewood Kona so much success. Part of me doesn’t want to see it get busy so it’ll always be as quiet as it was during our...
We could not have been more pleased with Aston Kona by the Sea. We had Unit 106 which was 2 bed and 2 bath. There was a sofa bed also (a little sloped but livable). The unit was completely perfect for our needs. First, we had a fantastic view of the ocean from our lanai. There were sliding doors in the living room and master bedroom. This was great because you could go out on the lanai from the master and not disturb someone sleeping on the sofa bed. The kitchen was updated and equipped...
Me and the wife enjoyed staying at this hotel and its proximity to the snorkeling beach. They had all kinds of boogey boards, paddle boards, snorkel and fins, beach towels, chairs and such for you to use at no extra fee. Washer and dryer on site. A vey nice place to BBQ if you like with all the seasonings and sauces provided for you to use. The room had cooking utensils and such to prepare meals. I would stay here again. The lady Gigi that runs the place was a pleasure to meet.
Let’s start off with check in…it’s easy.
Your reservation is held for you and upgrades are offered when available for purchase. A great offer.
You are at an older hotel…get over it. It’s beautiful and is walkable to downtown Kailua. ABC is across the street.
You will have one of three towers. The lagoon, Alii and the Bay.
The pool is amazing and the view is what you are paying for, totally awesome.
Parking: easy. Your room key gets you in and out. It’s self parking.
Your room will...
Well, I found the King Kamehameha Courtyard by Marriott to be quite a decent spot for a stay, but it wasn’t without its rough edges. There by the beach, where one hopes for a bit of serenity, there were a few folks living rough, and it tugged at the mood I’d hoped to find. Now, I believe if more of us took the time, as folks have done in places like Seattle and San Francisco, where a bit of outcry led to tangible improvements, perhaps things could change here, too. By lending a hand and...
Excellent location. Room was different than expected with pictures shown. They are a mix of rooms. Once I figured out some things, all was amazing. Quiet. Safe. Comfortable.Great location for exploring the island. Walkable small beaches. Received a lot of different emails about the property and checking in. It made it confusing but figured it out.
Its kind of like staying in a friend's guest room. Never really saw anyone.
It was a decent stay. Would stay again. The bathroom shower needed some attention . Mold and mildewy on the plastic shower curtain liner. Other than that, it was older and a bit dated, but it was comfortable and clean for the most part.
This was the most amazing place! The Place left me speechless and breathless. It was beautiful, charming and very comfortable. I wish I had stayed my whole trip at this place!!!! Michael was a very gracious host and the food he prepared was delicious. I give this place 10 stars!!
Service was phenomenal. I am so glad there is a gold option. The scuba diving was beyond excellent and creative design of the spa and pool.
I did not appreciate the spy bugs though.
We had a great 1-week stay here. We enjoyed the many features: beach, fish ponds, pool, restaurants, and the room/view was great. The hotel is beautiful, the open architecture and focus on water throughout is very unique. We visited a couple of the nearby resorts/hotels we had considered when booking the trip and it made us feel that we made the right choice, best value especially considering the price. Also, a drastic difference between the crowds we encountered at the other resorts compared...
We originally stayed at the Hilton Waikoloa village and were scheduled for 10nights. However upon arrival we were unimpressed and had a depressing feeling due to the run down nature of the hotel. It's hard to put a finger on it but felt like an old amusement park. My wife and I decided to tour other resorts. We drove to the Fairmont and we loved it. We also looked at the HapunaPrince and didn't really like it much. We switched our reservation to Fairmont and cancelled the remaining stay at the...
