Such a perfect beautiful place to stay. Very peaceful and welcoming. Not far from the beach like maybe a 2 min walk.

Very nice small condo complex, right up above the Kahalu’u beach park: you can walk to the park in 3 min, and avoid parking fee there. Adequately equipped, but as always: if you intend to cook much, make sure you check in one of your bags, and bring along a good chef’s knife, and maybe another one of your choice. We always do: condos never stock hi quality knives (they wouldn’t last), and the knives that are provided can’t be used expected to be sharp - they take too much abuse. Otherwise we found everything we needed, and enjoyed it a lot!

We had an unexpected flight delay & luckily landed in the Aloha Room at Big Island Retreat. It was almost like a second honeymoon after a flurry of family at a condo for a couple of weeks. Don’t go if you want a fancy hotel experience but for us it was almost like a quiet escape to our family cabin. Totally as advertised. Lovely!

This is a beautiful property, my son and I had the Pineappleroomwhich had a kitchenette which we liked. Plenty of parking, our challenge was we rented a big pickup but still managedFyi, the prooerty is further up hill than once you turn onto road , keep going until you make tight left and you'llsee signs saying Big Island Retreat.

Quaint little property close to beaches with great snorkeling! We brought our own gear but that it was very nice that they hand masks available for guest use as well.

Love this place. The rooms are clean and well equiped. The additional communal areas (laundry and outdoor kitchen) really help make this place tick. BBQ whilst watching the sun go down or the moon reflecting of the Pacific is a real memory. If you considering staying here then just go for it.

Awful "Reteat", this so-called "retreat" should NOT be allowed on Orbitz. Our room was a scene out of the movie "House of Horrots". We could not stay based on the Awful conditions and loud noice, etc. We booked for 5 nights, we did NOT get any refund. Property Mgt refused to work with us.
