What a gem of a location! Listening to waves crash over the rocks at night was truly a memorable experience. I would have rated 5 stars but the rooms at this hotel do not have air conditioning, and there is no TVs in the rooms. There are two small windows on the entry door side of the room, but they are not large enough to allow for a decent cross breeze, so the rooms stay very warm at night, even with the ocean side glass doors all the way open. The hotel does provide a small fan, but this was not enough to keep us cool at night.

Truly amazing place , we did not have a TV but realized that we did not come to Kona to watch TV . Staff was always there to help and support us with information about the island, places to eat and activities available. We will definitely stay at the Tiki Hotel again when we return.

Perfect Boutique Beach Hotel
Such a cozy boutique hotel. Everything was set up and ready to go by the time we landed-so we were able to go straight to the room. The ocean view lanai was my favorite part. No AC but with the ocean breeze and fans we didn’t need. Small hotel pool with patio lounge chairs perfect for relaxing. They provided beach towels. The kitchen has dinnerware, microwave, toaster and larger fridge. The staff were very sweet and helpful. Perfect beach hotel for solo or couples.

Nice place to stay for the view.
The people who work there are amazing! They were very helpful. The room was nice as well. No Air Conditioning and parking was really bad but both issues were related to us at some point in the check in process so I can’t say it was a surprise. Overall I really enjoyed it there. Loved the closeness to the ocean and hearing the waves crashing on the rocks.

Lovely hideaway in Kona
After the bustling Waikiki, we found this lovely little hideaway in Kona. Everything was great from start to finish with a warm welcome from Karen, a nice room and your own ‚sea-spa‘ in the pool when the waves crushed over. We will comeback for your on our next Big Island visit.

My stay was excellent. This hotel is exactly what I was looking for with a stay in Hawaii. Peaceful, quiet, and fairly convenient. This place isn't gonna be for everyone, if you are looking for thrills and to be treated like royalty or have a family this probably won't be the place for you. But for me this place was perfect because I don't need all that. The issues with this place are minor and don't warrant super negative criticism, but parking can be an issue, it's a very small parking lot. Luckily for me it wasn't a problem. For me my only suggestion is I do wish they would get air conditioning. I was aware of it coming in and they advertise as part of their charm. I didn't think much of it either since they are right on the ocean. But the weather in Kona can get a bit on the warmer side with humidity especially in the summer. So yes the fans help and there is ocean breeze, but it's not a cool breeze like you get on the mainland so I feel like they should have AC. Other than that this place is great and I will most likely stay here again because I loved everything else about it.

We had the best time staying at Kona Tiki Hotel! We loved hearing the waves crash in at night and the slow-down island vibe of the hotel. Staff was super friendly, room was clean and had everything we needed, took advantage of the beach equipment and book shelf and enjoyed our time on the balcony overlooking the ocean. Awesome place to stay to truly relax on vacation!

On the bottom floor people walk by your veranda within 6 feet at night you need to secure and close all windows and blinds or they can walk right in. No circulation at night except a stand up fan and all windows and doors sealed for safety Ice machine only. No water soda or snack machines told to drink tap water no continental breakfast as advertised. Clean room but only if you plan to sleep there offers nothing if you want to relax by the pool for the day No local hints to get around or make your stay more convenient just rules and travel book for the island

Hidden gem! A quick walk (less than a mile) into Kona to experience fun restaurants and shops. The salt water pool was clean and refreshing and gave a view of incredible sunsets. No AC but the ocean breeze provided plenty of cool air. Small kitchenette was very useful so we didn’t have to dine out for expensive breakfasts. Would highly recommended!
