Probably the best beach on the big island and perfect relaxing oasis for big island excursions. This resort when fully operational is probably the epitome of discrete luxury with an eco sensibility. Manta was delicious. The staff were kind and went above and beyond to meet guest demands. The Manta moonlight excursion was magical. Sad that the pool was closed but as an ocean oriented family with a beautiful bay at our doorstep we didn't miss it. Banana bread is exceptional.

This is the one. Look no further, their salt water pool is like swimming in cream..and the beach is prestine, good snokeling opportunity easy to see manta rays when sun sets via a short snokel swim or view point for those who do not want to go in. There are guided tours, but people also swam out without a tour. Rooms are beautifully put together with local treats, and two thermos and water station on your floor, sunscreen available at most stations, cucumber water, poolside service, beautiful restaurant..Manta delicious..i came here after roughing it in Hilo...this was the perfect ending to my trip. I went with 2 kids....absolutely kid friendly ..play room, small museum. What a dream.

Stayed while property was under renovation on half of it. Had to listen to some jack hammers while eating and sun bathing. Was not happy about limited access to snacks & food. Over all would be a great experience when fully open. When I booked it wasn’t disclosed it wasn’t fully open.

The hotel is very special. The views are spectacular and the staff is excellent. we upgraded to a deluxe room because when we arrived There was construction going on in the area where our room was going to be situated. The food is very expensive so we found ourselves going out for meals. That said, the Manta restaurant has wonderful food, I recommend the lamb chops 😊. You definitely need a car if you stay at the hotel. It is isolated and wherever you go it’s 15-20 minutes to get there. I recommend going to the Queens marketplace to the gourmet grocery shop. Also to the lava breakfast restaurant in Waikoloa Village. This was my third visit to the hotel and the hotel could use some updating But overall it’s a wonderful hotel. However, I would advise against the luau. For two the price of the luau was $450. The food was subpar, and I’m being kind, and the show other than the fire twirler was nothing special.

The building is amazing. The property is so much better than it looks in pictures, it is really stunning. The food was delicious and the staff was so kind and helpful, they never made us feel like the bumbling tourists that we were! I especially appreciated their very high quality water toys, my kids boarded on the waves for hours.

The ambiance and overall property is truly amazing and beautiful. It has the best vibe of an older era of resorts, which we loved for our honeymoon. Views and sunsets are epic. Food and service is great. Plantings inside the hotel need an upgrade and a few things in our room needed fixing otherwise a perfect week. Best of all, it has the best beach on the big island in my view.
