Overview

The quaint Kona Islander Inn on the Big Island of Hawaii is nestled in the heart of historic Kona across from the famous restaurant row. Surrounded by lush foliage and cooled by gentle trade winds, the Kona Islander rests in a picturesque setting reminiscent of a tropical plantation. Each suite is decorated with tropical island flair, sleeps four comfortably and includes a microwave, toaster, and mini refrigerator. There is also a relaxing pool and private hot tub to enjoy.

Pros (+) Location was convenient. Front desk attendant was very helpful and friendly. With ceiling fan and air conditioner running, was able to keep the sleeping area cool enough to sleep. Nice little pool. It was very quiet. Good WiFi and many channels on TV.
Cons (-) Although room appeared clean when first walking in, a closer look found a dead cockroach, little bugs, used condom and other small bits of trash on floor under dresser.

So many additional fees on top of the room rate....
