Hotels near The Original Hawaiian Chocolate Factory

"Laua on one side bar on the other could not sleep any night of our stay! Carpets were wet when we arrived it was a bit of a nightmare "

"Good solid Condo with a nice kitchen, living room. Bed was comfortable. We chose to drive around the island so we did not spend every day there."

"We enjoyed our stay. We stayed for a week. We did not rent a car and were fine without one. We could walk to a nearby plaza where there were restaurants and a grocery store. We took two snorkeling tours that departed right off hotel property. We enjoyed Tuesday food truck night and the Farmers Market. The pool was nice and the kids liked the slide. Some renovations occurring. The game room was closed. There is a bus from the plaza that takes you into old Kona Town where there is night life and lots of stores and restaurants. This hotel worked out well for us. On checkout day we didn’t fly out until late evening and they stored our luggage so we could enjoy an additional day in the area."

"Beautiful property in a beautiful place. Well maintained condo in a relatively quiet area. A bit far from city center. My first rental where I was required to throw out the trash and run at least one load in the laundry; I was supposed to turn off the thermostat, but I couldn’t figure out how to do that; check out time at 10am is on the early side."

"We had a wonderful time at the Big Island Retreat! It is for an adult who is seeking some chill time, tucked away in the trees, birds to watch, and feel the ocean breeze. Recommend for people who are okay without AC (went in March and wind was enough to keep us cool and sleep well), who are okay with quiet hours (I loved them because the sound does carry which makes ocean hearing good), and who want to spend most of their time outside or off exploring. This was perfect for our needs because we had plans to go and explore everyday and then come back just to sleep. We enjoyed not being on a big expensive resort and felt more naturally placed in the area. Our room had a bathroom, a sink, a mini fridge, a coffee pot, and dishes. There is a communal grill and larger fridge with a communal dining table. Washer and dryer available in the main public space. The public space has an open air roofed garden which is quite beautiful. We saw lots of birdies and geckos. "

"Great location, great amenities."

"The unit did not have aur conditioning working. we complained but got no response. we had terrible timing sleeping in the hot and humid weather. The beds were also terrible"
