Don't go here. Black spots in bed may have been bedbug waste. Musty odors, poor ventilation, ants in sugar. [ Lizard on bananas did not bother us.] After we left, I found an active bedbug on the outside of my backpack. Very sweet people, but house is not kept up. more

We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Hawaii including a four night stay at the Hale Maluhia Country Inn. We stayed in the Makua room and it was lovely, with traditional Hawaiian decor and a very comfortable king size bed and air conditioning. The owners Ken and Sue were very friendly and helpful, as were the other employees... more

I wish we could give the accommodation a better review, because the owners are both very lovely people and the breakfast, complete with make-your-own-omelette station and fresh fruits, was delicious. The view from the breakfast lanai was also beautiful, and the property was lovely and wooded. However, the room that we stayed in, the Maile room, was gross. The industrial... more

I was very comfortable during my stay at Hale Maluhia. Ken and Sue were wonderful hosts. I found it very relaxing to just hang around and enjoy the ambience. The Kona coffee early with a breakfast that was delicious with all the choices of fruit, cereal, homemade breads made my stay very enjoyable. In addition, I was able to cook... more

From the start (booking), everything was wonderful here! Ken spoke with me on the phone, answered my questions, and sent out a great detailed email with directions from the airport. He also included in the email information on the island. I was just a little worried about the size of the room, you can never tell from pictures. Well we... more

Thank you very much for the wonderful time we were allowed to spend at Hale Maluhia. To begin with: the breakfast was abundant including delicous daily home baked bread, eggs from chickens running around on the yard, various fruits beautifully arranged and decorated with flowers. When having breakfast on the terrace in the midst of a beautiful nature, you can... more

We were doing some last minute planning for a Hawaii vacation an picked this B&B on a lark (just some basic web browsing). I must say that I couldn't have been happier. The owner (ken) was extremely nice and gave us a nice discount while at the same time accommodating our last minute booking! The on site help (two younger... more

We needed a place to stay for a couple of nights on the end of a longer stay. We looked for a place near but not in the heart of Kailua. We got very lucky and Ken and Sue had a room for two of the three nights we needed. If you haven't been to Kona, and looking at the... more

I loved this place. The setting is quite beautiful and the attention to detail is wonderful. The owners are extremely helpful, kind and generous. I stayed in two different rooms: the Pitaki room which had a small kitchenette which was very nice. The Banyan Cottage is exquisite. It is a very large studio with a king bed set aside and... more

We had a fabulous stay at this little out of the way beautiful B&B. It was a last minute booking and we were fortunate they had a room. Maybe part of the charm as it seems to be a low volume place, due to low key marketing? It has all the charm of a little country cottage, old style buildings... more

Our lovely Hot Tub was and is working, only the guest neglected to ask us for the use. The tub is big and solar heated and needs a boost on a cloudy day to come up to the 100 degrees. We are happy to have the tub ready if we know that a guest would like to use the Tub....
