My stay at Kumu Beach was nothing short of incredible! The hotel provides a serene atmosphere with only ten rooms, ensuring a tranquil experience. The staff delivered extraordinary service, really going above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Although I didn’t experience any significant issues, I felt that having more varied dining options could enhance the overall experience. However, everything else was just perfect, especially the view and cleanliness.

Our stay at Kumu Beach Hotel was absolutely wonderful. The location right on the beach was breathtaking, and the gardens, along with the gorgeous heated pool, made for a perfect retreat. The rooms were spacious and beautifully furnished, and the food was plentiful and delicious. However, we wished we had booked a few extra nights to fully enjoy everything this gem has to offer.

Kumu Beach Hotel is an absolute gem for a relaxing getaway, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful private beach. The hospitality here is top-notch, with attentive staff who genuinely care about making your stay special. The food is delicious but could use a few more options on the menu if you're staying longer. While the amenities are decent, it’s a shame that the spa is not operational, as it was something I was really looking forward to enjoying.
