Words cannot express how amazing this resort is!!! Our experience staying at the Mauna Lani was beyond excellent! The resort is absolutely gorgeous, nestled on Big Island's west side surrounded by superb views of the coast, volcanos and nearby lava rock fields. The grounds are absolutely stunning, the facilities are top notch with lots of attention to detail and the property has a nice white sand beach in a bay where lots of wildlife seem to congregate (we saw 5 sea turtles in the water one morning!). The views of the sunset here are amazing and can be seen either from the beach, walking along the walkway riding along the coast or from the beautiful pools on property. The resort is pretty remote from a lot of places, and we needed 2 1/2 hours to drive down to Volcanoes National park but being so isolated and disconnected was the best! Our room was an oceanfront room with a beautiful view looking west (sunsets here were amazing to see to!). We found the room very luxurious, roomy and clean. The fine dining restaurant Canoe House was excellent in terms of the taste & quality of the food and the service, plus the resort has a bar near the pools and a little market for buying lots of snacks and drinks. We recommend this hotel to anyone staying on Big Island!!!

This hotel is absolutely stunning ! The layout of the hotel lobby is so beautiful and tranquil, the little bamboo sanctuary area with hammocks was so unique. The rooms (we stayed on the 6th floor Mountain View) were very spacious and beautifully decorated, and the beds were so comfortable! The decks were massive and at night you could lay on the couch out there and see the stars. The entire staff, from housekeeping, pool staff, store clerks, parking attendants were friendly and helpful. Check in was a breeze with a very friendly staff at the front desk. Although expensive the drinks and food were all excellent. The beach was so beautiful and tons of fish and turtles were seen while snorkeling. The pools were impeccable and refreshing. We loved our stay and will recommend it to all our friends ! 🌺

Beautiful, clean, resort. Staff were amazing, kind, helpful, happy. They all claimed that this was the most wonderful place to work! Rooms were large, comfortable, and had all the products and amenities. Restaurants were all great and easy to get in ( Canoe club hint: if you can’t get rezzie, go to the bar where full menu is served and bartenders are fun!). Loved this place! Will definitely return

Love love love this spot! From the rooms(spacious and comfortable) to the views (beautiful ocean and resort grounds) to the staff(Manny—cabana server who was so welcoming, friendly, and professional!)—-it was all a perfect way to celebrate a birthday

Pretty property and separate buildings for the rooms which helped reduce noise. Room was nice with a patio, kitchen, full size fridge, stove, microwave and walk in shower. The pool was really nice and big but not sure about the cleanliness since there were little kids in it and the water seemed a bit murky. The breakfast was great and totally worth $24 per person. Buffet style and a lot of options. The bar is only open til 6pm but they offer a drink cup which makes the drinks cheaper. My only couple of complaints are the live music is horrible. The bands are old, out of tune and loud which is not relaxing like other venues on the island. I did feel like there were a lot of seniors there so maybe that's the normal patrons at this resort and the type of music they played. The rooms didn't have any amenities such as shower cap, qtips, toothbrush, or toothpaste like other resorts. Also the cleaning crew would take my towels and washcloths but not replenish them so I'd have to ask for more. Parking is free and super easy to get to your room. We saw a grilling area outside too, which is great for eating there. I don't feel like there were a lot of great local restaurants around so I recommend getting food and cooking it at the resort. We did eat at Lava Lava Grill which was great but not impressed by the other surrounding restaurants. Overall, the resort was great on a budget but lacking with amenities and poolside service that you expect from a Hawaiian resort.

We had a wonderful stay! The one-bedroom suite was very spacious and comfortable, giving us plenty of room to relax. The pool area was absolutely beautiful, perfect for lounging and enjoying the sun. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing and amazing stay! Great location too!

We were given a suite on the 2nd floor of building 22 which was so newly renovated the TVs weren't finished being set up... yet somehow the shower door hinge was already rusty and stuck. There was a number on the TV to text for assistance, but it was evidently for a different hotel called Kohala who didn't bother to pass on our request. The suites are generously sized, big balcony, kitchen, living, dining, laundry, bed & washroom. Had to cross the street in bathing suits to get to the pool though. Open until 10pm but the towel station closes earlier so go get your towels during daylight hours. Musical performances for a couple hours in the afternoon, too loud, did not need amplification, had to leave the area. I didn't see anyone having the buffet breakfast for $25USD. No one was eating or drinking in the pool area, they have no servers. Everyone clears out of the pool by 4pm, then the whole place is dead. Can't even get a drink or a snack in the evening. No Uber eats either. Plan ahead to buy drinks and food at a grocery store. The shuttle costs $5USD per person each way. It was a very beautiful, boring, and quiet property, except for the many young children stomping and shrieking every morning at dawn (along with the wild goats). We enjoyed the free entry to sister resort Hilton Waikaloa Village.

Newly remodeled suite was spacious and well-appointed (except the coffee maker was iffy). In a very quiet area of Waikoloa, nothing in walking distance from the resort. Would love to see early morning coffee service there since the in-room coffee options were not great. Check-in and check-out were fast and easy and the free parking was fabulous as so many hotels are charging a lot for parking and you can't really get around without a car.

This property is definitely worth checking out. Room was nice, clean and bed was comfortable. Front desk was friendly but not accommodating to any request we made. Many other properties give a little wiggle room for late check out, room changes, etc. There should be free coffee in the lobby at breakfast time and/or a punch in the lobby at check in.

We stayed at Fairmont Orchid Gold for six nights as a family and the services we have received were exceptional. Although we had to wait a bit for our room to be ready, we were able to relax and enjoy refreshments at the Gold lounge. Due to some complications we encountered we got a free upgrade to a suite with ocean view which made our stay even more comfortable. The hotel property ground is amazing with beautiful landscapes at every corner. The private beach with a cove made swimming and snorkeling in the ocean very safe and enjoyable particularly when you have younger kids. We enjoyed delicious breakfast and evening refreshments every day at the gold lounge and all service members were extremely courteous and have us very useful suggestions on where to visit. Overall we love our stay at Fairmont orchid and will definitely come back in future!

The property was gorgeous and the views of the water were spectacular. We had an ocean view room that was worth the upgrade, and the beachside restaurants took full advantage of the views. We paid extra for the Gold package and the service was outstanding. Staff were friendly, helpful, and timely the making sure the breakfast, snacks, and evening appetizers were set up. Fitness center was top notch and concierge services at the resort made some high quality recommendations that saved us time and resulted in a great experience. The location of the resort in the Mauna Lani area near Kona is close to shopping and restaurants but far enough away that the grounds are serene and peaceful. Highly recommend the property and the upgrade to the Gold package.

Amazing location! Perfect for family with kids. We were upgraded to a partial ocean view room with direct access to the garden, and the kids loved being able to go easy outside and enjoy the beautiful outdoors. The nice sandy beach was great for the kids and the lagoon was spectacular, full of beautiful fishes! Staff were friendly and very helpful. I requested a mini fridge in the room and they also provided me with a microwave once I arrived. That was very helpful as we were travelling young kids. They also have laundry available. Oh and the food and drinks..so good!! Highly recommend we will be back.

The large pool was amazing . The music and the bars in the evening . The quiet peaceful vibe. The view from the hotel was the best of all . The most comfortable rooms set up great . The restaurants we amazing also with exelent service

Phenomenal vacation at the Fairmont Orchid. We were on the Gold Floor. Worth every penny. Had an amazing room that overlooked the pool and ocean. Room was spacious and immaculately clean. Staff at every level were friendly and kind. Browns Beach Club served delicious and flavorful food. Enjoyed a cabana rental at the lagoon one day. Snorkeling gear is included.. Would highly recommend this resort and the Gold Level.

We had a wonderful family vacation and highly recommend this hotel for both families and all travelers. The lagoon was a highlight, we spent countless hours there. We loved seeing the sea creatures at the lagoon, one can take the boat across to the other side, feeding the fish, and even watching dolphins every day. There are also plenty of fun toys available for rent such as paddle boards, kayak,... Be sure to eat breakfast at the hotel, it was such a great way to start our mornings. The luau was by far one of the best I’ve ever experienced, and I’ve been to many. The Italian restaurant is a must-try, and there are many other great dining options within walking distance, including a fantastic snow cone place. The rooms were perfect, spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The hotel also offers beautiful views and plenty of fun activities. The staff is incredible, friendly, helpful, and professional. I happened to be there during the tsunami, and the team handled the situation extremely well. I felt safe knowing they were prepared and attentive. The location is on one of the prettiest parts of the Island. My new favorite beach is Maniniowali Beach. Highly Recommend this resort!

Beautiful property! The views are gorgeous!! We stayed in the Makai tower, which I highly recommend. It’s close to the parking lot (SO helpful in this huge resort!) and the big pool. It’s not updated, but we didn’t care. We didn’t go there to stay in the room! The beds were comfortable and it was clean and it was serviced daily. We also had a view of the mountain and partial view of the ocean, which I wasn’t expecting. The coffee shop is great for breakfast. The buffet was nice, but overpriced. The other restaurants on property were priced way too high, as well. We ate at the Italian restaurant and the prices were insane. The pool slide and lagoon were fun! Surprising to find a few fish and turtles to enjoy when snorkeling! They rent out too many large items for that small lagoon, though. They should only rent out snorkel equipment and paddleboards!! The hotel placed a room charge for the total amount of our entire stay on our card at check in, which was really frustrating! Our written agreement when I made the reservation said they “may” do that, but that’s all. I’m used to a smaller deposit being held. In addition, their resort fees and taxes doubled the price of the room reservation!! That’s not Ben counting the ridiculous fee of $55/day to park in their wide open lot. Overall, the location on the island and the views made this a nice place to stay, but be prepared to be nickel and dimed.

Visited the Big Island for the first time last December for Christmas. Overall, the resort is massive and caters to families. If I were going on an adult only or couples trip, I would stay somewhere much smaller. Hotel was clean and rooms were decently sized. Bathroom area was a little weird with the sinks being outside the shower area and carpeted. We were in a renovated wing, balcony/ocean view. For a hotel this size I was surprised to not have more on site dining options, especially for breakfast where there was the over priced buffet or coffee shop. Be prepared to walk a lot if you don’t take the tram service. There are wait times for the tram unless you time it just right. A lot for the kids to do between the many pools and beach area plus water exhibits with the dolphins and snorkeling. Nice location on the island, close to walkable and swimable beaches. Many restaurants in the area too.

We had a lovely family Christmas at the Hilton Grand Vacations Ocean Tower at Waikoloa Village. Though we visited at a peak holiday time, the pools and salt water lagoon had plenty of space, with chairs easily available. The grounds and pools are gorgeous and very family friendly. Our partial ocean view one bedroom suite had a spectacular ocean view, a spacious living room and kitchen area, and two balconies with gorgeous views. The interiors were very clean and modern. Lea at the Hilton Grand Vacations front desk was kind and professional. She made our family check in process seamless, friendly, and efficient (very appreciated as my son is under 1). She educated us about the resort and made us feel at home. We highly recommend the resort and will be returning. Thank you Lea and the rest of the Hilton Grand Vacations team!

Lovely location with well manicured grounds and nice pools. Special thanks to our wonderful concierge in the Makai Tower, Annie who gave us the perfect and quiet top floor, ocean/pool/lagoon view room - 6325 (our age + the number of years we've been married) and made our 25th anniversary extra special by offering us some lovely gifts in the true spirit of Aloha. The room was clean and spacious and given the location and comparing it to other tropical resorts we've visited, we found the pricing to be reasonable. We chose not use cleaning service as we keep things tidy and plenty of extra towels were available upon request. The Waterfront, Nui and Kamuela Provision restaurants all offered good service and generous servings of well prepared and delicious dishes (both seafood and vegetarian). All staff we interacted were most kind and we send special thanks to Kami for her fine service at the spa and Raquel for ensuring our taxi arrived promptly when it was time for us to return to the airport. A note to the wise traveler: Taking the time to ask staff how their day is going and getting to know them just bit goes a long way not only receiving top flight service, but making your trip even more enjoyable. These are hard working folks and all of us treating one another in the Aloha spirit of mutual regard, kindness and humility goes a long way.

Easy to walk to Queen’s Market place- beach pool jacuzzi amazing- Beautiful grounds and live music added that extra aloha warmth-thank you!

Very good well kept hotel. The main pool is glorious, if you go at 7AM to have it all to yourself :). Very quiet property, far from traffic noises, even the AC is whisper silent. Landscapers use electric EGO tools in the morning, finnaly! Convenient shops and ABC Grocery store in walking distance. Rooms are a bit small, but well kept. Staff is very friendly and accomodating. Very dry sunny weather location. Overall a very relaxing stay. It is familly friendly/popular, like most of Hawaii... The only negs would be the actual beach, which suffers from being very rocky in shallow water - you'll have to drive 15 mins to Hapuna if you want a good beach experience, and the somewhat iffy dining choises. The restaurant is very good for breakfast (try the Rancher omelet) but dinner options are expensive, and the restaurants arround it were uninspiring. Depends on taste - we ended up driving to Kailua Kona for dinners (Fish Hopper rules) Oh, and be aware of fees, there is a $40 resort fee and $30 self parking fee per DAY, on top of your room booking, and I don't recommend going car free.

Wonderful experience at the Waikoloa Beach Marriott. Location is perfect. Right on the beach at A-Bay. Easy walking distance to lots of great restaurants like Lava Lava Beach Club and Roy’s and great shopping at Kings and Queens shops. The Hawaii Calls restaurant at the resort was great for the breakfast buffet and taco Tuesday for dinner was delicious. Resort is in great shape. Rooms are in very good condition. It is definitely worth it to upgrade to an ocean front room. The grounds are beautiful and loved to just relax in the infinity pool. The sunset from the resort is beautiful. We rented a car and it was great to drive down to the volcano and to the many waterfalls on the windward side of the island. The staff is wonderful and really shows the Aloha spirit. A special shout out to Darlene and the concierge staff who do a great job with recommendations of restaurants and things to do. Another special shout out to aloha ambassador Kristy Walsh for all of her help. Already planning to come back.

Overall great clean resort. Fantastic buffet breakfast and nice dinner options . It’s right on the beach so if the pool chairs are occupied (usually they are by midmorning ) you can go relax on the beach. Close to village shopping and dining. However, I was disappointed for a couple of reasons. First of all, it didn’t have a valet parking. Every time we went out we had to get the car ourself. Once we left the car in the courtyard for 10 min because we needed to get changed quickly for our dinner reservation the staff told us to park in the parking lot. We insisted so eventually they let us park on the side of the courtyard. Most hotels in the area had valet ( we checked when we went for dinner) The other thing I was disappointed about was that most of the time they run out of pool towels by 1-2 pm. We stayed there for a week. They closed the pool hut and pool food and drink service by 5pm. The guests can use the pool until 11pm though. I think the resort is a bit overpriced for those reasons . On the other side we had amazing sunset view from our ocean front balcony - priceless.

Good morning. I would like to tell you all about our recent stay at the Waikoloa Beach Marriott hotel and spa. This was our fourth stay, having just been there last December. We are Bonvoy Titanium members and love to travel, and Waikoloa has become our favorite spot. From the minute we drove in, we felt like we were home again. We love seeing the same faces at the driveway, and at breakfast, and at check in. But there are a few people I'd like to give our most amazing recommendation to. We've known Anette Hemphill for a few years now. She is such a friendly knowledgeable and helpful compassionate person. When we see her we feel like we're home again. She's always so helpful before we get to the hotel, and makes sure we have a perfect room and that she takes great care of us. And she does! She truly wonderful. We have known Mia Atsumi from our stays at the Royal Hawaiian in Honolulu. She took amazing care of us then, and we are so thrilled that she is at Waikoloa because we can see her and spend time with her there!. She is a wonderful caring compassionate person. Waikoloa is lucky to have her as a team member! How amazing that our last morning, the women at breakfast gave us a hug and everyone said "we can't wait to see you again." That's not your typical large resort hotel, and that's exactly what we love about Waikoloa. Have a great day and book your trip there!

This is my second time staying at Paniolo Greens. Overall, it is a fairly decent stay and one of the more bang-for-your-buck places on the northwestern side of Hawai'i Island. Each suite is super spacious, easily fitting a family of 4 and more. The bedding is really comfortable. The view out onto the golf course in the morning is very picturesque and having breakfast outside on the balcony is lovely. Lots of birds around. The downsides: The property is on the older side and it shows in the interior design which feels outdated. The staff generally do a good job of keeping the place clean. However, for my specific stay, the amenities in my suite were not fully stocked upon check-in so I had to contact housekeeping (almost entirely out of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, coffee filters, etc.). There aren't a lot of food options nearby but there is a KTA grocery store down the street, and there is a new shopping plaza being built nearby which will eventually add more dining options. Beach items are available for rent at the front desk (costs about $5/day per item). In closing, the place is pretty no-frills but it's spacious, clean, and a good home base for a Big Island trip. I do plan to come here again in the future since it's good value. FYI - if you arrive at night after the front desk is closed, there is a phone outside the office you can use to call the security personnel who will assist you with checking in.

There was a lineup (45-ish minutes) for check in; however, everything following check in was amazing. Condo was clean and had more than enough space for 4 adults. Staff were friendly and attentive to any needs. We stopped by the front desk numerous times to pick up more coffee, coffee filters, laundry detergent, toilet paper, dishwasher soap, and kitchen garbage bags. Staff were always quick to provide these refills. Renting beach chairs was easy, too! We enjoyed the pool amenities including corn hole and foosball. Location provided easy access to all parts of the island. Highly recommend Paniolo Greens and plan to stay there again next year!

My stay with Paniolo Greens was amazing. Very relaxing & having fun at the pool & playing a game of pool in the center. Grill area for lunch or dinner time. Friendly staff. Checking in was quick & easy. The only thing that was bothering was that you could hear your neighbors. I was staying in was building A. A211was slamming doors, talking very loud & staying up way passed the hour, 3am is when they went to sleep, which is @ 10pm is the last hour for noise. Wish it was bit more sound proof. Other than that is was perfectly fine. Big condo AC 2 bedroom upstairs 1-king 1-queen 2 bathrooms/shower combo, washer/dryer, downstairs 1-sofa bed a huge kitchen, stove, microwave dishwasher, refrigerator, sink. Living room table, chairs, tv. Outside patio, nene birds & turkeys. Well worth it.

The space was super cozy and really clean! Very quiet, so close to beach resort shopping centers. The employees checking us in and out were super kind. The view from the balcony was breath taking. We loved our stay!

This is a great place for folks who are already familiar with Hawaii and don’t need a resort vibe. Met up with a friend from another island, have friends in Kona and we used to be kamaaina so priorities were convenience, space and economy. No resort fees, park in front of your apartment, supermarkets and restaurants nearby, laundry if you need it. Make your own breakfast and sit on lanai watching golfers while figuring out who and where to meet up with folks. Kid made friends at the pool right away. Perfect for a week or longer stay. Easy to get to both Kona side and Hilo side with new roads (although you can also easily end up on “interesting” roads heading to Hilo) Not luxurious, but just perfect. Checking in with late flight arrival is old school (meet security who checks your name on list) but was easy.

Beautiful hotel, guest services was very nice but some people didnt know basic things like “where is yoga?, what time is yoga?” Where are uekele classes, what time?” Where are the good coffee farms. Most people seem new. Food is ok. Chef at beach pool cafe needs to re sizzle menu for example cobb salad doesnt have ‘fried onion bits”. Yuk. Also the fryer oil needs to be cleaned. The sweet potato fries were bad my husband got sick. The pools and jacuzzi and beach were nice. Room was perfect. Just a little noisy from construction. I would come back just wont eat there. Coffee is really good.

We spent four days at the Westin Hapuna Beach Resort during the last week of June and LOVED every minute of it! This property is pristine and peaceful, with numerous spots to relax and view the ocean. Every member of the staff that we interacted with was friendly and welcoming, from the valet to check-in to housekeeping. On our first morning there, we went to the breakfast buffet, which is BOUNTIFUL and DELICIOUS! When our server found out that it was our 20th wedding anniversary, she brought us complimentary guava mimosas and a huge serving of bananas foster. It was very sweet! And, although we enjoyed the restaurant meals, we found that the little "grab and go" market provided quality hot breakfast items (which was great for the day we left for a tour at 6:30am) as well as tasty sandwiches and salads for light dinners or quick lunches (and it is inexpensive). The coffee bar was a convenient necessity as well. For beach and pool time, we found that the umbrellas, beach chairs and towels were plentiful; we never went without The ocean here is pretty and nice to swim in, but if you want to experience a truly GORGEOUS beach with crystal clear water, go to the beach at Mauna Kea. You can hike the one-mile trail along the shoreline (which we did) OR take the complimentary hotel shuttle (it runs every half hour). It's heaven! I stayed in the ocean there all day and never wanted to leave... We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hapuna Beach resort. It was well worth the expense!

My family and I (including two teens) just enjoyed a week at the the beautiful Westin Hapuna Beach and loved our time there! We were pleasantly surprised by the roominess of our Ocean View room and loved the large lanai with stellar views. We were on the 8th floor and sat above the residences in front of us which really made a difference and elevated our view. The room itself was clean and well kept, nothing of note from us. My husband is platinum with Marriott and the two daily included continental breakfast options were perfect for our family. There was a large selection of delicious pastries, some simple parfaits, fresh fruit and coffee. Nothing extravagant but since we’re not big breakfast eaters it was perfect for us! The pools and beach were breathtaking. We’ve made many trips to Kauai and our last family vacay was to Turks & Caicos and this rivaled the best beach/water we’ve been too. Beach chairs were popular but with a little patience we were always able to find somewhere to sit. The only disappointment, if you can call it that, was the food. The beach bar was a fantastic location but the food was just ok. Our dinner at Meridia was delicious and one of our best of the week but overall food on the island was mid. (We ended up trying a lot of the options in Waikoloa and nothing knocked our socks off either. )

We stayed at this resort as a couple for five days during the Thanksgiving holiday, and it was a wonderful experience. The location is perfect, offering direct access to the beach, two inviting pools, and all the amenities you need to unwind and enjoy your time, whether you’re traveling with kids or not. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the service was consistently excellent throughout our stay. The dining options were a highlight: • Piko was our go-to for drinks and coffee—a great spot to start or end the day. • Ikena offered a fantastic breakfast buffet that we highly recommend. The selection was excellent, and the pricing was very reasonable. • Naupaka served great drinks and delicious food, with a healthy menu option we really appreciated. • Meridia, unfortunately, fell short of expectations. While the location and views are beautiful, the cocktails were overly sugary and disappointing—stick to wine if you visit. The food quality was subpar and didn’t justify the high prices. • Engawa was exceptional and a standout experience for us. The healthy, innovative dishes made it a must-try for anyone looking for something unique. Overall, the resort was amazing, and we had a truly relaxing and enjoyable stay. The convenience of having everything we needed right there added to the sense of ease and comfort. We would definitely recommend it for a holiday getaway!

Very happy, stayed 2 nights before heading out to a rented house. Great views as you enter of pools and Hapuna Beach. Lobby is on 8th floor and we were given a room on the 8th floor with ocean view so very convenient getting around. Elevators are fast if you aren't interested in all the stairs. Room was comfortable and seemed like it had been redecorated/refreshed in recent years. Pool area was great, drink and food service from poolside restaurant very good. Could have spent all day at pool, but that beach! Hapuna Beach is just gorgeous, exactly what you picture for a Hawaiian beach destination. We've stayed all over the island and this is by far our favorite beach for swimming. Had good dinner at Meridia, very good. Also had sunset cocktails and dinner at Copper Bar at Mauna Kea. That is a must, there was live Hawaiian music and a Hawaiian dancer. Coupled with the good food, the background of tiki torches shimmering and the sun setting, it was a lovely vibe and great way to start 2 weeks in Hawaii.
