The view of the ocean, surfers, and sunsets were lovely. Red Salt, their restaurant, served delicious meals. Our breakfasts, which were included were wonderful."

"This is our second trip to this lovely hotel, we liked it so much last year we repeated and was not disappointed at all. Staff is super friendly, ready to meet every need. Breakfasts are wonderful, dinners are amazing. They will schedule any event you want to do. Always asking if there is anything you need or want."
"Stayed 7 nights in August, and this hotel fit our honeymoon goals perfectly. If you are looking in Hawaii for a less crowded, upscale hotel this is it. Hotel propery is located right on the ocean, and we stayed in the top floor facing out on to the ocean in an Ocean Front Deluxe room. Beautiful sunsets from our balcony,..."

"The service and relaxing atmosphere were outstanding. Everyone at the Koa Kea went out of their way to make our stay perfect. The oceanfront room was a dream. No more than 20 yards from the ocean. Definitely not a big crowded mega resort. It was peaceful and uncrowded but had all the amenities you could ask for."
