Hotels near Captain Cook Monument

"Great stay, clean, friendly staff "

"Overall, my accommodations were spacious. I was a solo traveler and had two bedrooms as well as a full kitchen, living room, 2.5 baths, and a laundry area. The resort is towards the south end of Ali'i Drive. In general, you would probably need a car if you plan to stay here since it is a bit of a hike to get out to Ali'i drive and then over to the shopping center in Keauhou. With a car, you are five minutes to the shopping center for groceries; six minutes to the beach and 12 minutes to the Kona Village tourist area. In that I had a rental car, I found everything to be easily accessible. I believe this resort also doubles as a timeshare facility. Thus, I sense that, if I were traveling with my wife, I would have been cajoled to sit through a sales presentation. Thankfully this was not the case and I had more time to spend on my vacation!"

"We loved our stay at Dragonfly Ranch. The location is out of the way but perfect for seeing the beauty and splendor that is Hawaii. The people are kind and interesting. It's not for everyone. You are quite immersed in nature. There will be geckos in your room and the birds and insects are right outside. It's almost like camping with a comfy bed. "

"Amazing view, lovely house and friendly hosts. "

"Pleasant people and accommodating. Will go again "

"I've travelled a lot over the last 4 decades and Kona Palace has the best view of any property I've stayed in. It is cozy and secluded and it was amazing just to sit on the patio and watch the sun come up from the side of a mountain! The surrounding foliage is beautiful and the accomodations are comfortable. The cherry on top was finding we had a hot tub!"
