From the moment we turned into the driveway, I breathed easier and felt wrapped in happiness. The gorgeous house was clearly built with love and is maintained immaculately. Kenny and Kilohana have a friendly but calm presence that makes them exceptional hosts. And the food! My husband and I are both vegetarians, and I have allergies (and am a picky eater on top of that), and they were so accommodating about everything. I'm glad another user here took pictures of the breakfast- I'm not one to take pics of food, but each breakfast felt like a work of art in addition to being local and sooo tasty. Kilohana gave us excellent advice about going to the green sand beach, which proved to be invaluable. As others have mentioned, he obviously knows the area quite well. If you're looking for a place to relax and get away from the world, you couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be calling Kilohana and Kenny first to make sure they have room before booking our next trip to the Big Island.

We used the hot tub 2x and it was perfect temp. I thought it was crazy for a gas fireplace in room. We used it 3x because it was rainy here. Staff was helpful by providing us ice and utensils and glasses that we could leave in room. They don't want you drinking the water so they provide a 5 gal jug of water. Good to bathe in but not drink. They provided a small fridge, coffee maker, toiletries. The room was big enough that they could have added a coffee table by fireplace to set your drinks on. No TV but we had our own electronics. WiFi was on point. Ample parking. They don't do daily room service unless you ask. The sound of the birds at night is amazing. They communicate right away via text for anything you need. I would definitely stay here again.

The entire place and they don't seem to care it's old and tired. What is worse the staff are not at all friendly.

I turned in the wrist band door key no good morning no thank you for staying with us. I stood there she didn't even pick up the key from the counter top. Just looked me. So I turned around and left.

We really appreciated how clean the place was and well appointed. However, if you are only…read morevisiting Kona for a couple days and want to do a water tour, you may want to choose elsewhere as the location is about 1 hr 45 minute drive back to Kona. It is closer to the volcano and black sand beach but not much else. The biggest issue is the noise level inside. The walls are very thin and you hear nearly everything; not so much talking but footsteps and moving about. Although we might have heard snoring last night. There are also bugs that somehow get in randomly. I noticed more the next day and ants on the counter even though there was no food. Also, there is no air conditioning unless you want to pay an additional fee. Be aware the phone number listed is incorrect. I tried calling several times as we were going to be late checking in due to a tour in Kona. I googled the Sea Mountain, looked at my reservation and every number I tried led to an error message. I finally found a good number and spoke to a nice younger man who advised me what to do upon arrival. I had also emailed and messaged out of desperation without response. Good thing I found that good number. The next day we checked in at the office and spoke to an older woman who wasn't friendly and didn't seem that knowledgeable as to the sights and timing of things. Overall, it was clean and nice but probably wouldn't stay again.

The restaurant located within the hotel is extremely noteworthy and well-known across the whole island, many people simply come here just to have breakfast lunch and or dinner. The pork chops have been written about all over travel sites and I must say I can still remember how delicious they were. A yelp or just like the photo that I took from this hotel, and it reminded me that I never added my review. I will be back on the island in the new year and look forward to coming back. What I will say this is far removed from all of the fancier hotels like Lanikai etc. this place is more residential for people that are looking for longer-term stays, and it's to my knowing that a separate building within the property is for residence or long-term stays. I do understand that some people have an issue with the tenants that live here versus those staying here on vacation. I luckily had no issues whatsoever. Don't forget to tip your housekeeper or leave a nice tip on the dresser before you leave

There was coffee cake for afternoon tea when I got there. The porch is the best part of this place. It overlooks the mountain with a great view of the water and forests below. Breakfast was nice since it came with avocado, cut papaya, a piece of breakfast cake and smoothie as well as tea/coffee. I did like meeting the geckos that look like the GEICO gecko during breakfast who were wanting fruit. Cons: there's no AC. Also I was woken up by I think a rooster at 5 am. They do try to space out people getting breakfast so you can't rush in at 730 am for food.

Roads are severely dark that you cannot differentiate between driving/reversing onto road or out to sea *yikes*. Once you finally arrive at your destination, keep on driving up the hill until you reach the end. Don't forget, it is crazy dark outside, don't be alarmed by the sounds of nature. You'll park to the side next to the other 4 cars by the garage (not into it) and quietly find directions on a pin with your name on it. Come quietly inside as you make your way to the room. If you survive the night (which, you will), you'll find yourself on what looks like heaven; beautiful oceanview windows overlooking the bay. When you come down, you'll be greeted by the sweetest angel, Hannah. You'll find her in the kitchen in the morning making an all you can eat breakfast. Don't be rude! Say hello, grab a coffee, make your way to the patio and find a table. Hannah will let you know when all is ready based on first-out on the patio. When asked what was my favorite meal in Hawaii, hands down, I say Hannah's breakfast. She made delicious Banana Nut Waffles topped with macadamia nuts tossed in coconut oil and syrup. In addition, she's boiled eggs, cooked turkey bacon, and has sliced up fresh tropical fruits. Don't forget to try her freshly made smoothies made with guava YUMMMM!!!

The setup was super convenient--having laundry machines inside the unit made a huge difference during our trip. It features a large living room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a lovely outdoor patio to relax on. The grounds are well-manicured and beautiful throughout the entire property. The location is also really good. Even though it isn't right on the ocean, you can get to downtown and all the restaurants very quickly, which was super convenient for grabbing meals. They have two pools on-site, and they do offer various activities during the day (though we had too many plans of our own and didn't get a chance to participate). A huge plus for us was how accommodating they were on our last day. We had a later flight out, and they allowed us to hang out by the pool all day with a day pass. They even have outdoor showers in the pool area, which made it super easy to rinse off and freshen up before heading straight to the airport. Inside the room, the shower pressure was great. My only minor critique is that the bed was a bit too soft for my personal preference, but I get that they have to cater to a wide range of guests. Overall, it was a fantastic, comfortable experience. I would absolutely come back and stay here again!
