Lovely cottages and the place it self. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Star glazing was an amazing experience. Enjoyed lovely sunrise every morning. Loved the idea of guest writing their experience in the cottage diary.

Directions inside the property need to be better because I got lost couple of times especially after sunset. It’s scary for new comers like us. I was walking after sunset wanted to visit blue moon room never found one and i lost the back to my cottage, it’s was dark, one guest gentleman name Rauff was very kind to me and he walked with me to show my cottage.

I was looking for a peaceful respite to dive into creative writing surrounded by lush jungle beauty, and I can’t imagine a better match. While staying here I adored my cottage: I could hear ocean waves crashing from the lanai space, I found the seclusion I was hoping for and felt very connected to nature and wildlife on the property. I adored the geckos and mongoose and while I can’t say the same about the mosquitoes (the jungle is real!), overall I found the change of scenery I was hoping for. The classes offered covered a range of interests and I hopped into yoga a couple times during my stay.

I wish there were more meal options on the property, though I knew to expect it was a remote location, so I ended up making a run into the closest town for groceries. That seems like the tradeoff for the rugged beauty in this part of the Big Island.

Really great place. I was traveling with my son and we enjoyed view and location. Additional fun was watching boar family passing by every evening. Stuff is super friendly.

If you're a light sleeper, please note that there's no glasses in the top window. You can hear all nature sounds. For me was a bit difficult to fall asleep.

Location was beautiful. Isolated, so close to the beach. The room was also beautiful, it was a small cabin separated from others. It's definitely "jungle chic" so those who might fear the word glamping may not appreciate this resort. But for most, it'll be beautiful. It being behind a locked gate also makes it feel extra safe.

Beautiful walking, sunrise, birds, nature. Good internet at the shop! Great place to catch up.

A pool would be nice. Laundry and minimalist cooking facilities would be great. Maybe a communal bbq.

This property is very unique and that it offers incredible privacy and unique style bungalows surrounded with jungle beauty. The entire property offers some amenities, but for us the best part was minimal interaction with other people. Our bungalow which was KAI number 5 has a great Zen vibe and a very private outdoor shower, which was spectacular.

There really were no negatives for us.

The location was beautiful, so relaxing, tranquil and still close to a town. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. We wished we got to do more of the classes /events on. Next time 😊

I don’t believe we had any dislikes 🙃

Quiet

No pool & Jacuzzi anymore? WTF REALLY the only reason I stay at Kalani. Seriously disappointed! What happened and why would guests not have pool access??

The views are amazing. We could see tropical storm Darby sweep in and we had front row seats from our beautiful cabin of the massive waves crashing and pounding on the coastal rocks

The kitchenette is inside a closet making it a tight fit but overall, very thoughtful layout of cabin

Incredible ocean view. Friendly staff. Close to the beach and little store.

I stepped on a noni fruit and it got in between my toes. My bad!!!
