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.

Nostalgiv ocean front place
An older hotel close to the ocean, about a 20 minute walk to Kona. It is very close to the ocean so, indeed, the waves are crashing outside your window. We loved watching the kids surf and the crabs walking up and down the wall. We enjoyed sitting on the patio! No A/C so we had to have the windows open all the time. This also let in the street noise but often it was drowned out by the ocean. With our windows open and being on the ground floor (and without a safe in the room), we were worried about safety but nothing happened. Parking is an issue and while the owners asked people to rent small cars, people don't so the few spots there are even more crowded with jeeps and minivans. Street parking is available but it means crossing a street/highway that is often very busy. Others reported excellent wifi but we did not find that the case and it wasn't strong enough to support one device. We did report this to the owners so hopefully they can resolve it. All in all, a comfortable ocean front place which brings back nostalgic memories.

3 star hotel good location but some cons
This tiny hotel is in a good location right on the ocean and about a 15 to 20 minute walk into town. It has a very tiny parking lot. There is no air conditioning so you hear the sound of the breaking waves at all times the bathroom is tiny and for us was a major problem because we could barely get any hot water And the water pressure was really bad. The pool is OK and we did use it every day for a quick swim, so there are pros but some cons as well.

4/10 Fair

The location of the property was convenient and had pretty landscape. However, the facility lacked drawer space for your belongings, no phone or television; plus, there was no daily laundry service for bedding or towels. You basically had to request services. In addition, there was no air conditioning and parking was extremely limited.

Wow… just an amazing place… you can see all the colorful fish from my balcony. Can’t wait to return.

This place is perfect. It's small, quiet, right up to the ocean, has a salt water pool, and the room is bright and welcoming. Sleeping with the sliding door open to the sounds of crashing waves on the rocks is sheer heaven. It's close enough to downtown Kona that you could walk to the restaurants and shopping. Lovely staff, too.

The ocean views and salt water pool were outstanding. The hotel manager also made it his business to make sure I felt welcome. I’d come back again.

The best rooms with the best views that you'll find for the price. An excellent family owned place that was very personable and relaxed. Being right on the ocean and just a few minute drive from the popular beaches, snorkel spots and downtown Kona shopping and food. It's not a typical hotel type stay, meaning there was no AC, TV, free breakfast type of amenities, but like many have said, they are not needed. Being 20 feet away from the ocean, it's plenty cool to sleep at night listening to the waves. It's warm in the rooms in the middle of the day, but 2 fans are provided to take the edge off. Being able to make some coffee and step out onto our personal patio and watch the tides in the morning and the sunset every night was a highlight of our stay. The parking lot is in fact tight to get in and out of, but after a few times, you get used to it, and after being in Kona for a week and seeing the parking situations everywhere, just having enough free parking at all is a blessing. You will hear some road noise behind you, random people with loud cars and playing obnoxious music, but without AC units, and other guests TV's, it is a very quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Jim and the ladies up front were great hosts. Always around to provide anything we needed. The beds and pillows were also some of the most comfortable we've had at any hotel. The only thing that really needed an upgrade was the shower water pressure, so getting off the sunscreen before bed took some scrubbing.

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.
