"The ocean was not visible from our room, but the 11th fairway of the Kona Country Club was. We did visit the pool that was by the ocean and it was wonderful! We enjoyed the waves crashing on the rocks and spraying us with ocean spray. Every staff member was friendly, informed and helpful!"
"My family and I enjoyed ourselves at Holua, we went there to join a round-robin pickleball event. Richard that runs the facility there is AWESOME!!! We were in a unit that was near the pickleball courts which made it easy. Personnel that shuttled us from parking area to our unit and back was very nice. Enjoyed the pool right outside of our unit. I strongly recommend staying at Holua Resort. "
"Many amenities including pool, hot tub, bar, basketball court, corn hole, volleyball court. Well stocked kitchen. Washer and dryer. Beautiful landscaping. Would stay here again."
"Stayed in 2303. Great view of Ocean and beautiful apartment. Pool and hot tub good. Not a bad drive back to Kona for activities and quiet at apartment. Swam at Kahalu’u both days which is fantastic to see fish and turtles "
"A not so hidden gem with a rustic plantation ambiance. Lush surroundings, great parking, friendly staff, convenient to Volcano National Park. The 1/2 mile loop trail behind the property was a fun morning picker-upper to get the day started. It’s a little quirky that the guest check-in is in the gift shop, very laid back but service is wonderful. The restaurant is top notch and the portions are reasonable for the price. No tv in room which we did miss after a hard hike at Volcano, but not a deal breaker. in room gas stove was a cozy plus. The only thing we wish was different is the shower. The bathroom was plenty big but the single stand in shower was tight. Did appreciate the towel warmer . The night air was filled with coqui whistlings but we got used to it. Highly recommend and would stay again. "
