My husband and I just returned from five days in Kona at the Four Seasons and we had a fabulous time at this beautiful resort BUT, beware of the construction as other posts have indicated. I still recommend this property overall, however for the price, it may not be worth it in it's current state (hence the 4/5 star rating).... more

before traveling to hawaii, i read every review about this resort and was very worried about the construction complained of by other reviewers. yes, there was construction by the quiet pool and yes it was loud and distracting. however, there is another, equally gorgeous pool, that is silent, on the beach, and has full service. i could easily spend thousands... more

I feel that I have to defend this place from previous reviewers. Don't listen to the reviews below mine. The construction DOES exist and yes it is a minor distraction but by no means does it take away from what a blissful place the Hualalai property is. The construction took away from one pool - there were three other amazing... more

This is one of the best hotels you will ever stay at - even with the construction. Location - yes, it is a bit remote, but only about a 20 minute drive to the city of Kona (South), the Waikoloa resort area (North), and a bit over an hour of beautiful scenery to some of the most incredible hikes and... more

This was our Honeymoon and we were conned by FSH. Before the moans the good stuff. The grounds are lovely and the fitness and pool area are great. The location on the beach is great but the hotel is in the middle of nowhere if you wanted to explore the Island. The signature restaurant was a lovely meal and the... more

Service is excellent, although not outstanding and not on par with the best hotels in the world despite the pricing. The rooms are okay - but again not top notch in my view. The real drawback is that there was almost constant construction every day of my visit - jack hammers, dump trucks, banging, circular saws, etc. - throughout many... more

This is by far one of the nicest hotels I have stayed at, especially in Hawaii. The price is steep but for a reason. Amazing rooms, service & food. Our room was it's own bungalo that opens up to a patio that opens up to the ocean. We had a bungalo in front of the natural pool, which was nice... more

This resort is the best on the island--by far. While the others manage to have a Las Vegas feel, the 4S Hualalai manages to exude the Hawaiian experience throughout--the rooms, the landscape and the friendliness of the staff. The only complaint is the construction which takes place by the main adult pool during the week. They should at least lower... more

We stopped at this resort for one week on our way to French Polynesia. if you are a frequent 4Seasons hotel guest, you know what to expect. The hotel: super large complex with the beach, golf, trails etc. Several restaurants, bars, enough not to get bored with the food selection. Beautifully done grounds, several sections with pools, ponds etc. Suitable... more
