Matthew, 1-night trip

What a gem in Kona! My wife and I were evaluating our options between a large hotel or the Kona Tikki and we decided to stay at the Tikki. You get a great ocean front view that’s unbeatable and great value for money compared to larger hotels and what they charge for an “ocean view”. There are no TV’s or Air Conditioning but it was just fine. There’s plenty of ocean breeze to keep you cool and the lack of tv is nice, it allows you to focus on the trip, your spouse/travel partner. The staff was friendly, welcoming and helpful with anything we needed. They are very diligent about maintaining the property at the highest level. We will be staying here again and you should too!
Christopher, 4-night trip

Great surfer hotel (even if you’re not a surfer). Each room has a view of breaking waves and the hotel salt water pool looks out on the ocean. The hotel is simple yet nicely decorated and adequate free parking. We really enjoyed our stay.
Stephanie, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely stay

Really enjoyed my time at the Kona Tiki Hotel. Convenient to many shops and restaurants, I often opted to walk rather than deal with parking. Staff was very kind and helpful. Great pool, especially considering the size of the property. Beautiful views and sounds of the ocean.
Lauren, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

We booked without realizing there was no air-conditioning. Thats on us. It did get muggy inside but with fans at night it was doable. We killed 3 roaches and there were a lot of gnat type insects. I think they are common in the island. Pool and view is incredible. Rooms were clean and very nice. Landscaping, pool, grounds all very nice. Price was great. Next time would opt for something with AC and no roaches.

pat, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Hotel is very clean and comfortable and walking distance to town. We were delighted to see many whales right from our balcony.
Mary, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

If you are on the fence about this hotel…..do it!! Staff is extremely kind and helpful. You can lay on the bed and watch the surfers riding the waves and watch so many crabs just hanging out. The sunsets are breathtaking from the pool. Open up the windows and listen to the waves all night long. Just wow!! Yes, there is no tv or ac…..but who cares when you can feel the ocean breeze all night long. Definitely recommend having a smaller vehicle as the parking lot is small but it is FREE.
christina, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I liked the email to check in, and the instructions on getting in the room.
Brian, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Wonderful location right on the beach! Our manager and host was so friendly and helpful. And the view from our lanai was heaven!
Judith, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Perfect Big Island retreat!

Charming hotel & room! No TV or AC, but with the fans with the lanai door open the ocean breeze was amazing. Didn't need a TV, it dIdn't fit the vibe of the Big Island for me. Instead, we fell asleep to the sound of the ocean waves, not a TV. Bed was super comfortable! I would definitely come back here for another stay! View from the lanai was amazing as well (watched the sunset).
