"Perfect studio for our low key stay. Garden is lovely. Quiet neighborhood. Place is clean with basic kitchen items. The welcome basket was well stocked. And several times throughout our stay we had fresh fruiting waiting for us in the morning. Great views of ocean. Nice breeze. Great location. If it rains expect some mosquitos but our hosts had plenty of options to help deter them. Would definetly stay again. "

"So as Marriott properties go, this one is spectactular. The beds were comfortable--great bathrooms, FREE washer dryer (so great at the end of the day to dry the bathing suits) and free water bottles and water filling stations everywhere. You also have access to the Mauna Kea (next hotel up the beach) where the food is better (and more expensive) and there's a different beach for a change of scenery. We rarely visit a place twice, but Hapuna Beach is pretty close to perfect. "

"Very friendly staff and nice location "

"This is the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Understated and tasteful elegance. Fantastic rooms with amazing balconies, world class beach, impeccable service, excellent grounds, fine dining at Manta, but also a beachfront casual bar/restaurant, and Copper Bar in between and our favorite. They have an Asian Art Collection worthy of a museum. This was out of our usual price range, a big splurge, and worth every penny. We are already trying to figure out how to swing it to go back next winter. "

"We stayed here for a more secluded area than the nearby resorts but it was also close to the conference I was attending. The host Kyla was awesome and super nice. Everything was very easy and the house had all the amenities we needed. The local beach was great for our young children and a little general store that was close. The food trucks (malasadas, fruit, coffee, at the highway stop wete also good. I'm short it was the perfect place for our trip!"

"A beautiful property that is exactly as advertised. We stayed for 30 days and enjoyed it very much. "

"Easy check-in. Just the basics, bedroom and bathroom. Linens were clean and fresh. Open air rooms. Affordable. Shared microwave in the common room so we could heat our breakfast. Staff were very friendly and recommended local shopping and coffee options all in walking distance. This is a no frills property. If you want to slow down and relax, this is the place with an authentic Big Island vibe."

"It had everything you needed "

"We have been to the Big Island many times and staying Waipio Gardens was one of the best trips we've ever had there. It is a beautiful property that provided serenity, great hiking and amazing beach time. The house is nestled in the jungle in the valley with gorgeous plants, fruit trees, lots of birds and even wild horses. We picked and enjoyed fresh oranges, grapefruit and papaya. The hosts, Sukumar and Kristi, were very helpful in the planning of the trip as well as ferrying us to and from the house. Getting there was indeed part of the adventure and this location provides the opportunity to experience a part of the island that most will never get to see. Would highly recommend!"
