    Best massage ever!

    I just had the best massage by Angela! The pressure was perfect. Her expertise on handling my shoulder work was amazing. I highly recommend seeing Angela for your next massage. You will definitely be in good hands!

    Early Anniversary Trip

    We love this resort. We had a great time and will come again soon. I love the restaurant, pool, and hot tub. The staff is so friendly. The excellent walking path is next to the bay, and you meet a lot of locals fishing nearby.

    BIANCA -Customer Service

    Beds are comfortable. The resort fee and parking fee are a bit much. Bianca was top notch. She went above and beyond to make the day special. After a long day of traveling it was nice to be greeted with a friendly face. Thanks Bianca , you rock! Xxxooo, Colorado Girl

    Massage at the spa

    Amazing massage with Angela! She did an excellent job. The zen den was nice. Cool to access the pool/hot tub as well as locker room to change for the massage. Very relaxing environment. Would definitely visit again.

    Great Staycation!

    Having grown up in Point Loma, I was very familiar with the Kona Kai's beautiful grounds and pools. This was my first time staying overnight and I could not be more pleased with how my stay went! I wish I remembered the name of the woman who checked me in because I would love to give her a shout-out. She was super accommodating and walked me through all the amenities, events (S'mores by the fire pits!), and dining options that the Kona Kai has to offer. She was so lovely, as were all employees who I encountered throughout my stay! The room itself was super cute and the bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in. The Marina view from the room was so pretty and such a wonderful way to wake up to a San Diego sunrise. I only had drinks at the on-site restaurant, Vessel, but can vouch for the lovely view and excellent service. Overall, such a beautiful and welcoming place to stay!
