Kona Kai Motel

Kona Kai Motel

10/10 Excellent
"This is the second time I have stayed here and I love it. I’m looking forward to coming back. It is such a cute little place. It looks like a little tiki hut, village. The staff is very nice and helpful. They have a beautiful pool and at night all through the property. It looks so cool because they have these tiki torches that come on at night. It’s just a beautiful peaceful place and I would encourage anyone to check it out. You will love it. It’s centrally located on the island so it’s easy to get to everything."
