Hotel Moloka’i is a nice place to spend some time at. Location is incredible and also close to the major town that offers breakfast, lunch and a couple of grocery stores. The staff is amazing. Always polite and helpful. Rooms are however run down and the fact that the hotel doesn’t serve breakfast is definitely a minus. Restaurant options are also very limited. It would be nice if the beach in front of the hotel was cleaned up and sorted as it is amazing but the smell and the rotten seaweed kills the atmosphere.

I would love to review the property …. But unfortunately my flight there was on Mokulele Airlines (the only air carrier that flies there) and they grounded all their flights for days due to negligence of maintenance. Shame on them for wrecking our vacation and not offering us any compensation other than a refund. Shame shame shame on them.
