Best location in Kona

Great price for such a central location. Shops, dining, and the ocean were just steps away. It's a quaint little studio, but everything was super clean.

A Quiet Solo Trip

This was a great place to stay in for a few days after my girls trip ended! Peaceful and so close to everything. Super walkable if your main interests are the ocean and restaurants along the shore! One thing to note: There is no elevator, so I had to carry my two large bags up the stairs and back down on my own at check-in and check-out.

Low key and close to all you need

This might be the best deal in Kona. The apartment was clean and decently appointed. Kona Islander Inn is in a great location close to shops & restaurants. Parking in the lot is limited, but street parking is also available. We had a nice balcony and used the pool area. If you walk through the property, you will pop out right along the ocean.

The property was central to a number of activities and great restaurants. Clean and well appointed. Parking is an issue. Wish that could be resolved especially for elderly and family guests where walking distances with all your gear is more than some can handle

Visiting Kona

The property was adequate but dated. The air conditioner is old and very loud and noisy. Poor instructions for the TV. Not enough parking off the road. The bed was very comfortable, lots of towels and beach towels. Nice pool and area. The property is with in walking distance of restaurants and shops as well as local beaches which is great.
