My stay at the resort had its highs and lows. The staff at times were incredibly kind, and I felt very welcomed. The villas are luxurious and offer a private experience, which was fantastic. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, especially with a poor buffet and lackluster meal options. The service felt inconsistent, and I had issues with the facilities that really took away from the overall experience.
Rooms

The villas were truly amazing, featuring a private plunge pool and comfortable living space. However, the issue with insects was quite unfortunate, and they really needed proper fumigation.
Service

Service was a mixed bag. While some staff members were warm and attentive, others were intrusive and lacked professionalism, overshadowing the guest experience significantly.
Location

The location is simply breathtaking, with stunning views and a picturesque setting. It felt like a real escape from the hustle and bustle, though the entrance road raised some concerns initially.
Dining
5.0
Dining was a disappointment. The previously amazing 5-course meals were replaced with a basic and uninspired buffet that didn't hit the mark.
Facilities

The facilities were also lacking. The cleanliness of the communal areas, especially the outside pool, was below expectations and needs significant improvement.

The hotel has a stunning beachfront and the rooms offer a cozy vibe, but my experience was dampened by the quality of service and an underwhelming dining experience. While the private pool was a nice touch, it lacked the expected seclusion, which was disappointing. Overall, the resort has ample potential, but it fell short of the expectations for a luxurious stay.

My stay at this resort unfortunately did not meet expectations. The beautiful beach was the highlight, but the rocky path to get there and the overall condition of the villa left much to be desired. The service was decent, but the dining options were disappointing and overpriced. I had to cut my stay short and head to a better place nearby.

Konokono Beach Resort offers a stunning beachfront with powdery white sand and a tranquil vibe, perfect for a romantic getaway. The rooms are spacious and clean, but we encountered some issues that detracted from our overall experience. The staff's friendliness varied, with some truly exceptional members, especially Ali, who provided fantastic service. Dining options were abundant and delicious, though breakfast could be improved. Overall, the location and beach more than made up for the shortcomings.

I had an incredible stay at this resort where the surroundings were absolutely breathtaking and the atmosphere was so charming. The rooms were spacious, clean, and held a touch of luxury, making my time there feel special. While the dining options weren't the best and could use some variety, the stunning beach and pool made up for it. However, I did notice that the Wi-Fi could be somewhat spotty in certain areas, but it was actually quite refreshing to disconnect and enjoy the moment.
