Super friendly staff. It's a no frills sort of place-but so homey and sweet. Our family suite was a great size. Working A/C and great to have a kitchen. No TV in the room, but we weren't there to be inside all day-the beach is where it's at. The beach that you can walk to was so perfect for my family. Really enjoyed our stay.

Mike was a great host and gave us easy ideas about entertaining kids. Also directions to find food and other services nearby. The place is like a dormitory, no frills, but everything you need for preparing you own food and getting a good nights rest. It’s an older lodge but everything was sparkling clean and well-maintained. I’d recommend it to friends.

Very clean, quiet, and comfortable stay. Staff was really friendly. Easy check in and check out. Beach towel service was a nice perk. We had the family suite which had a full kitchen with everything one would need to prepare a meal and dine in.

Couldn’t be any cozier.

Clean and spacious rooms. Staff was helpful and courteous. Will recommend lodge to others. My family loved the beautiful birds singing outside our window. From our porch, we could see geese and goslings in a small pond. Super cute. Kona is nice but Hilo rocks!!! Great common area. Really clean.
