Our experience at Rosewood Kona Village was outstanding. Overall (despite a few service lapses) this was a spectacular trip that met + exceeded our expectations. I had been looking forward to this "birthday" trip for MONTHS and spent hours researching, discussing, etc. I would HIGHLY suggest booking your trip here through a luxury level/experienced TA. It made all the difference with the service/perks/additional gift card etc.... Also, simply having an advocate with a direct line to management while we were there was priceless and so incredibly helpful. I've often enjoyed the travel planning process myself, but for this level of property I would never ever book on my own but rely on a TA to fully maximize the experience and VFM. Property/Greeting: 10 Simply Breathtaking. My first time at RKV but the friends we travelled with had been here twice in the past during the orignal phase pre tsunami. They were thrilled with the outcome of KV 2.080 acres but it did not feel overwhelming in size at all. The landscaping was gorgeous and so well done, including the large putting green grassy areas that were so lovely and incredibly calming. I especially loved the placement of the majestic Ki'i (tiki's) throughout the property and how there was just a beautiful and organic "flow" to the property once you had your bearings. Our greeting from Far at reception really set the tone. She was so lovely, gracious and warm in the most genuine way. The sincerity of her welcome, acknowledgment of my birthday and overall excitement with seeing us excited to be at RKV made for the best sense of ALOHA immediately upon arrival. The sense of place here is phenomenal. I felt "it" immediately and could not have been more pleased/relaxed with our choice of RKV. Rooms: 10 DESIGN heaven. I am a big fan of Nicole Hollis, the SF based designer who was in charge of the interior design so it was not surprising that I fell head over heels in love with the aesthetic choices. We stayed in a TREETOP Hale (#108) and our friends stayed in an OCEANFRONT Hale (#5). My partner and I really enjoyed the location of the TT hale (so central) and really enjoyed the treehouse aspect/vantage point. We had a view over the property with the ocean in the background from the lanai and then the most glorious mountain view from the back/outdoor shower. Our friends had a direct/front row view to the ocean (very close to one of the beautiful Ki'i (tiki's) and for them the location was perfect for their needs with a close location to the MOANA pool. The layout was perfect for us and all of the details were on point (artwork, small ceramic object d'art, linens, art + design books, etc)HUGE bathroom and although we are "shower guys" I took a bath in the beautiful tub almost every night! So incredibly comfortable with a thoughtfully placed bath pillow + calming local bath salts to truly relax. We tend to overpack and this time was no different (lol)...but we had plenty of drawer storage space along wit
