First, let me say that I know a lot of people say that this hotel is a great place to stay. I hope I can give you an idea from this post of why I think this hotel is just average and I probably won't return - although I didn't hate the place - I just think there are better places to stay in Hawaii.
Our stay was generally pleasant, and ...

Avoid this hotel
By Shauna, 02/13/07
Pros: Very nice grounds to this hotel.
Cons: Pool was not heated, temp to pool was around 63 (however our stay was in Febuary). The room was clean (compare it to motel 6 in cleaness). Was told in advance that late check out would be possible (with a fee) to 5:pm. However, when we asked the day of check out they would only offer it to 1:pm for $ ...

Mediocre is an overstatement
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/06/07
I travel quite a bit. I have visited some of the grandest hotels in the world. This is not one of them. The hotel, rooms, service & amenities are mediocre at best. If you are looking for a "Brady Bunch" type hotel/vacation defined by overpriced mediocracy, stay at the Sheraton. I would HIGHLY discourage anyone from staying at this hotel.

Excellent hotel.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/22/06
Staff was very fiendly. Had ocean view room, and the view was terrific. Hotel was close to the many restaraunts and shops in Kona. The breakfast buffet was very good, and the evening Mai Tai's were also great, after which you could watch the manta rays feed.

I would recommend to everyone
By rickers91, 05/30/06
We went to Kona to get married in June '05 and the Sheraton took great care of us. We were upgraded to an ocean view room which was amazing and the bed was a comfortable pillow top.
The staff was friendly and very helpful. They recommended us to a restaurant for our wedding night and even made the reservation. At 10PM the night before ...

Both good and bad
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/03/06
We'll start with the good... my family and I, all five of us, stayed at the Sheraton 12/23/05-12/31/05. The hotel was just the right size, wasn't too crowded and was very centrally located. The pool was clean, and considering the hotel size was not too crowded even though it was during the holiday. The staff was accommodating and ...

Fantastic Resort - We Would Stay There Again!
By lifezgood70, 03/21/06
We just got back from a 6 night stay at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay. Check-in was quick and easy. Staff was friendly. Room was in perfect condition with a comfy bed (by hotel standards) with lots of pillows! We had a Mountainside Deluxe room - from the balcony we had a view of the grounds, golf course and ocean. We also had the sunrise package ...

An Unforgetable Vacation
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/15/06
We stayed five nights in a room with a delux ocean view. We are retired and do a great deal of traveling and this is the first review I feel compelled to write. Our room had a delux ocean view. What a view!!! You could see the whales from the balcony at mid day. At night we watched the rays swimming on the ocean's edge drawn by the lights of ...
