We stayed here last year and absolutely loved it, we were so looking forward to stay here again this year, unfortunately this time around we were left very disappointed.
To start, I booked the exact same room as I did last year, prices this year were close to double! I requested the same room as last year or at the very least a 2nd floor unit, I also called ahead of time and was told this should not be a problem.
Upon checking in I was informed that 2nd floor units are apparently 'premium' & I did not book that, so they could only give us a 1st floor unit.
We stayed in room 1913 for a week, although we loved our overall stay in Waikoloa, Kohala Suites was disappointing. Room 1913 has a bug problem: tiny ants all over the kitchen, they seem to come out of everywhere! Mosquito infestation in the twin bedroom room, you'd get bit just by walking by, the worst part was finding a cockroach on our last night! (See photos)
I was going to bring this up when checking out, but the representative didn't even ask how our stay was!?
Overall we were very disappointed with our stay, and feel like we overpaid. They do have so much staff onsite, but they all seem to be driving around in golf carts all day and not doing any cleaning.
