Top Puako Bay Hotel Reviews

The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent service from the staff! Check in was smooth and we were greeted with lei, refreshments, and a towel. Yvonne, Chris, Linda, and Summer were great to chat with at Piko Bar in the evenings. Getting a pizza there before closing (9pm) was a nice late snack. Loved chilling at the adult pool. Dinner at Meridia was fantastic. Room Cleaning staff was so nice and gracious and worked with our schedule when we would be out of the room. Resorts grounds were immaculate! Would definitely visit again!"

"The home is absolutely beautiful, spacious and is well stocked with everything you would need. My family and I spent so much time on the lanai enjoying the beautiful view and the pool. We utilized the access to the Mauna Lani Fitness Center as well as their beach which was perfect for snorkeling. We had paddle boards delivered to the property that we used right off the beach in front. The water was so calm. The coffee and the malasadas from the food trucks on the corner of Hwy 19 were delicious! We had an amazing time and would highly recommend a stay here."

"Everything was outstanding. Thank you to the owner, Andrew and our local contact, Leah for making everything perfect. The home and the grounds had everything, felt just like home, down to the Toto toilets, Sonos sound system and home automation. With 9 adults ages mid 30's to early 70's plus four kids under 10, there was plenty of room and spaces for everyone to relax and the kids be active. Nearby beaches were good and groceries available nearby. We all had a great time and expect to book again next year."
