We stayed with Wendi and Dave for 5 nights, and I'd never stay anywhere else in Kona. Here's why: * It's simply lovely and cooler by far 8 minutes up the hill from the beach. * Wendi and Dave anticipated so many of the things we might want: a glass of wine upon arrival, coolers, towels, boogie board, snacks, bottles...

When you travel to Hawaii, your imagination is one of beauty, warmth, tropcial foods, relaxation and the welcome of the natives. We found all those at Honu Kai through Dave and Wendi. The warmth, kindness, and generousity of the hosts makes the Spirit of Aloha come alive. We stayed for 3 days there and 7 at a timeshare. Those three... More

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights and were very pleased with Honu Kai. This is the 5th bed and breakfast we've stayed at (all the rest on the mainland though) - for us it was the best so far as far as atmosphere, amenities, breakfast and support/advice from the hosts. Our room was very clean and welcoming, but... More

Our stay at Honu Kai was absolutely fabulous! It was as if we had all the comfort of 'home' while having all the pleasures and comforts of a 5-star hotel. Dave and Wendi are two of the most wonderful people...the are warm, welcoming, generous, and knowledgable. They went so far above and beyond anything we could have hoped for or... More

We stayed 3 nights at the B&B in the Nigori Suite and 5 nights at the condo in Mauna Lani. Both were great. Dave and Wendi are terrific hosts. You feel like you are staying with friends or family rather than at a business establishment. They want to be sure that you have anyhing you need and go out of... More

Neither my husband nor myself are what you would call a "people person". However, we genuinely enjoyed all interactions with Wendy and Dave. They are both delightful, interesting people who I hope to meet again someday! As others have stated, Honu Kai is more than a place to sleep. We received great advice, directions, informative sheets, and supplies (beach towels,... More

Lord, what a beauty! The proprietors were charming and bent over backwards to provide for us. The B&B was spacious and attractive. The breakfasts were tasty and elegant beyond belief: great food decoratively arranged. Highly recommended!

Every detail of our recent trip to the Big Island was scrutinized and deliberated over and over. If you are like we were and agonizing over your trip to Kona and where to stay, you can stop right now. The Honu Kai is absolutely the place to choose. The Honu Kai B & B was a highlight of our trip... More

We had an excellent time here, staying in the Nigori suite. I had arrived with a specific health problem and Wendi was more than helpful to help me sort it out before we moved on. What neither of us knew was that I was incubating a severe head cold which arrived when we got to Auckland. Wendi, hope I didn't... More
