Our stay at the resort was wonderful, especially thanks to the great location just a short walk from the beach and town center. The room we stayed in was spacious and clean, offering a lovely view of the pool area. The amenities could use some updates, but they were always kept clean. Although we felt the price was a bit high due to the long weekend, we had a great time overall and appreciate the friendly service, which added to our enjoyable experience.

Our stay was quite enjoyable! The location was perfect for easy walks to both the beach and the main shopping street, and the room was clean and comfortable. It was great for our children, as they loved the outdoor pool and spa. The shower pressure could be improved though, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, it offered good value for our family trip.

The Kaloha resort had its charm, offering a good family room setup and a nice kitchen. However, we found some areas to be a bit worn out, and the couch was quite stained, which was disappointing. The location was quite convenient, close to the main cafe area, but there is room for improvement in cleanliness.

We had a lovely time during our stay at this resort. The two-bedroom apartment was spacious and very clean, making it a comfortable option for our family. The kids especially enjoyed the onsite playground and jumping pillow, while the swimming pool and spa were a hit for the adults. However, the furnishings in the living area and bathroom could use some updating, and there were cleanliness issues in the kitchenette. Overall, it was a satisfying experience with a great outdoor atmosphere for families.

I had a lovely stay at this resort, which is perfectly situated near the beach and a quick walk to the town. Our room was spacious and cleaned daily, though I noticed the bathroom needed a bit of maintenance. The facilities, especially the pool and jumping pillow for kids, were a big hit with my family. While my overall experience was positive, some small updates could enhance it further.
