Book a hotel near Hawaii Gateway Energy Center, Kailua-Kona

"We had a wonderful stay here! I was a little nervous about no AC but being up the mountain it was beautiful. When we lost power for a short time they immediately reached out to us to keep us informed. If I’m ever back on the big island again I will definitely stay here again. My nephew loved our friendly balcony geckos. "

"If you're looking for an authentic island vibe, this is the perfect place to stay.Sandra was a fantastic host, and the property—nestled up in the mountains—offered stunning ocean views and lush, tropical surroundings. The outdoor kitchen gave us a true taste of island living, and the area was filled with beautiful wildlife. It was incredibly private and peaceful, a true escape.Our favorite part of the day was enjoying breakfast outside, taking in the breathtaking scenery and listening to the natural sounds around us.Highly recommend this magical getaway!"

"Great location. Spacious apartment with tasteful decor. Comfortable beds and nice lanai."

"The house was close to the airport (a plus since we had early flights out), near the beaches and the downtown area, and about a half-hour drive to resort golf courses. It was clean and had a spacious, open floor plan for gathering. We had ample room for meal prep, serving, and eating at the roomy counter with barstools. Seating in the living area was comfy and adequate. There were three bedrooms, a bed, and a pull-out sofa for plenty of sleeping areas. Three screened sliding doors, windows, and ceiling fans kept the house cool and comfortable. The outdoor shower helped keep sand from getting into the house after trips to the beach. The big patio had long tables and chairs for dining al fresco and a comfy rattan seating space. The BBQ area was another small gathering place with a table and rattan benches, so the cook wasn't left out of the fun. The pool was a nice alternative to the beach when we wanted to have water fun without sand or leaving the house. We appreciated the washer and dryer. Beach towels, pool toys, and sunblock were available, too. Janie, the host, was friendly, responsive, and professional, and made our stay smooth and easy. If you plan to visit Kona, we highly recommend this property for spacious, comfortable, and relaxing lodging."

"This place was close to many attractions in the area, very nice pool and outside yard with plenty of room for 10 of us. I really have nothing bad to say about this bnb. We all really enjoyed our selfs."

"Small but very functional. Highly recommended!"
