The staff was EXCELLENT! Kind and so helpful with recommendations. We really just needed somewhere to sleep at night, and our room was good for that. I wouldn’t say our room was dirty, but it wasn’t immaculately clean. Our only complaint was our bed, the mattress really needs to be replaced. Overall I would give our stay an 8/10!

Our room was clean and quiet, well minus the roosters, but they are everywhere on the island. The Inn was comfortable. They have live music 3 nights a week. They have a really nice pool area. You really can't beat it. No resort fees. Breakfast every morning. Friendly staff. If you have a rental car you're close to everything. They also don't have a parking fee. You can walk to restaurants and bars about 15 minutes or so away. I would definitely recommend this place.

The staff was so helpful and friendly. We were greeted with the familiarity of old friends. The owner made us delicious char-grilled burgers while we were at the pool and the GM brought out the fun water games for my daughter to play with. There was a movie night on the lawn with popcorn. Highly recommend this Inn for anyone traveling with family looking for a low-key experience where you feel like Ohana. Plus they have very sweet kitties wandering around the property. We will definitely be back!
