Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so glad you had a great time (again) -- it was great having you here.
Aloha a hui hou!
This place is a real dump. And it was quite expensive by any measure. I made the reservation for three nights but had to leave and find another place last minute. The ceiling had holes around the fan. The AC DOESN'T WORK! No TV, no...More

We wish we had known your concerns so that we could have addressed them in person. We’re confused as to why you state that the AC does not work since we do not have it — we have the cool ocean breeze instead. We are...More
This sweet vintage hotel has many things going for it: the managers are amazingly kind and accommodating; the location is accessible; the beds are comfortable; and, it is nice to have a kitchenette to prepare some food. Be aware that the rooms in the 101-201-301...More

Thanks so much for the kind review! We enjoyed having you here, even if it was for too short of time :) So glad you enjoyed all the little gems of the Kona Tiki including the convenient location, petite room, oceanfront lanai, amazing views, and...More
We spent 2 days at this place and it was very nice. We were right next to the ocean and the ocean wave sounds made a very wonderful night sleep. Breakfast outside by the pool was so good and we watched dolphins and snorkelers ....More

Aloha! To make a reservation, we collect a deposit -- for example, if a reservation is over 5 nights long, we collect the first 5 nights as deposit. Or for stays 5 nights or less, it would be the full amount, and your credit card is charged when you make the reservation. If you want to pay in cash when you get here, we are happy to reverse that charge and change the transaction to cash. If you happen to be a "walk-in" when we have availability, we'll accept cash as payment without charging your card, but we do need to put a credit card on file for incidentals. Please call or email us if you have any additional questions or if you would like to make a reservation. Mahalo!
