Such a perfect beautiful place to stay. Very peaceful and welcoming. Not far from the beach like maybe a 2 min walk.
Awful "Reteat", this so-called "retreat" should NOT be allowed on Orbitz. Our room was a scene out of the movie "House of Horrots". We could not stay based on the Awful conditions and loud noice, etc. We booked for 5 nights, we did NOT get any refund. Property Mgt refused to work with us.
Great place with all necessary amenities, close to beach, great housekeeping.
Property managers were very nice and courteous.
Near a beach with a lot of fishes and turtles, the hotel was charming : nice room with a pocket sea view, clean, and very calm. The common kitchen is agreable, well equipped . The gem of this hotel is Gigi , so kind and helpfull, gave us a lot of good advices. A little less : the place for the smokers is a little far from the hotel
This place isn't for everyone. It is not a 5 star resort. But it was perfect for myself and my girlfriend. We stayed for three weeks and never questions our choice to stay here. Gigi makes the stay comfortable and was very helpful. We plan to stay here next time we visit the big island. We had the opportunity to see a few of the rooms during our stay and they all look nice. I would recommend the ocean view room.

Aloha, At Big Island Retreat you book a specific room. You booked the Honu room and were given the Honu room. All websites show you the room pictures. Your complaint to me was that we represented ourselves to be a resort and you have traveled the world mostly staying in Sheraton type establishments. We do not claim to be a resort you were given the same room you booked. Our confirmation email explains to you we are a small private property every reservation counts. Had there been an issue with your accommodation not providing what was promised or some other failure on our part I would have worked with you. You were rude from the minute I answered the phone For anyone thinking of coming to visit us please feel free to reach out I am always happy to answer any questions and often will take pictures and text them or email them for a potential guest. It is in my nature to show everyone true hospitality.Big Island Retreat is Old Hawai'i Charm on the Kona CoastNestled in a local Hawaiian neighborhood a short walk from snorkeling, swimming, sunning, and surfing at Kahalu'u Beach Park, Big Island Retreat is a wonderful place to rest, relax, and rejuvenate.The very words used on the front page of our website.
