Kona Paradise Hotels near Captain Cook

"This was my 4th stay at this property. I would give it 5 stars, however in building 18, we could hear from the unit above every time they went to the bathroom, flushed the toilet, turned on the dishwasher or shower. This is the only unit where we have stayed that we had a noise issue. Also, this location has many buildings around and limited parking. Additionally, apparently a work station for the development is also in this area and we heard loud talking multiple times during “quiet hours”. We will definitely come back but will make a request to not be in this location. On the positive side, all the staff are wonderful. We love the pool and especially the baby pool for the grandkids. The restaurant is an added bonus to have on the property. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. The sunsets are just amazing from this location."

"Customers need to be warned that this isn't a hotel and the room wasn't really a room, but rather a screened-in porch. There were no windows to close - only screens. There was no shower, but rather a bathtub where people from the outside could see anyone in the tub. The bathroom sink was actually a kitchen sink that came with cockroaches. The bed was in very bad condition, sinking in the middle. There was poor lighting, no air conditioning, and nearly deafening noise from frogs outside. When we arrived, it was completely dark and to reach our room, you were required to climb a steep hill/driveway. The breakfast consisted of some cut up fruit, wheat bread, oatmeal, and coffee. The owner was friendly, trying to be accomodating and helpful."

"Good stay. Lovely property. Will definitely be back. Thank you!"

"Great stay. A couple of their hot tubs were down but there are 6 on the property so not the biggest deal but definitely inconvenient. "

"Bathrooms need an overhaul. Kitchen was reasonably stocked, but over a 10-day stay we needed to request several items. Pool was wonderful"

"owners spent a lot of time and money on a beautiful property, but why cheap out on the beds?"

"Beautiful complex and views from the room. The unit we stayed in was a bit dated but clean. Only downside was the bed was very old and uncomfortable so we had to buy a foam topper which we then had to leave there rather than travel home with it."

"Our stay at Gingerhill Farm Retreat was a unique and grounding experience. We stayed in the Bamboo cabin with an outdoor kitchen, shower, and sink, all supplied with propane and warm water, along with a clean compost toilet. The space was designed as an open lanai, allowing for natural cross-ventilation. We never needed the fan. The cabin was surrounded by lush vegetation, with the sounds of the jungle creating a vivid atmosphere at night and in the early morning. The common areas include a terrace overlooking the ocean beyond the tree line, offering beautiful sunset views. The staff was attentive and supportive throughout our stay. We also had the honor of meeting the owner, Ms. Mayumi Oda, often referred to as the “Matisse of Japan,” whose vision promotes healthy living and environmental awareness. This experience offered a rare balance between natural living and everyday comfort. It felt less like a stay and more like an immersion into a different way of being."

"A very homey and hospitable BnB. We had a very comfortable room with a big lanai and an ocean view over the gardens. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. The farm animals, birds and the owners dogs were gentle company. The property is very private but on the main belt road and convenient to both sides of the island. Plenty of good local restaurants, shops, markets and historic sites and beaches."
