Loved dancing to the fun bands at Luke's Place next-door Friday and Saturday night, and liked watching the locals dance.  Luke's Place is going out of business end of January.  The waitress thinks someone will buy it.  I recommend staying at the Kohala Village Inn Friday and Saturday nights if the bar re-opens, or if the band at Bamboo restaurant a block away...

Online, this hotel looks like a quiet, elegant B&B. In reality, it's a somewhat rundown motel right smack in the middle of town, across from two gas stations. The smell of mold hit us as we entered the room for the first time, and the shower stall was a bit scary. On the plus side, it's only a short walk... More

The Big Island was having the Big Wet, so Kohala was awash with water. Still, the main street is attractive with raised sidewalks, old-style wooden buildings and some good shops. Drop into the Lighthouse Deli while you're there - if you're lucky, you'll hit the Friday night jam session as I did. Now, that's real music! The Inn. Update the... More

This hotel is clean and basic (no fridge or coffee maker in the room) and reflects a bygone time. Our room was compact but very clean and comfortable. We were in block A which has a veranda surrounding a garden area with tables if you want to sit outside. A computer is available for use as well as wifi. Coffee... More

What an adorable place to stay. There was music and it was charming. We were too tired to go out and listen so we fell asleep to the beautiful music. Place is enchanting. Had to leave early. More

The staff was nice and the room was cute and had enough space for our family of 4. But our window was right next to a rooster that started cockadoodling at 4 am every minute. We all didn't get any sleep. I have chickens at home and don't mind a distant cockadoodle but not sounding like it was right next... More

We checked in on a Saturday. There is live music on the weekends, but it is only until about 9:30 or 10:00 pm so it wasn't a problem. Nice room, good breeze through the room. Mattresses are not that great, they probably are as old as the building itself. We were originally supposed to have a room in Building B,... More

I was looking for a place mid week to explore Pololu Valley then a short drive to crash. I arrived mid week and there was only one other guest car in the pakring lot. Apparently much busier on the weekends when the live music happens. If you are an early to bed person might not want to stay here on... More
