1. The only downside was paying to park in an exclusive and remote hotel? Also, the surfside outdoor massage was noisy instead of relaxing, apparently they didn't coordinate with the landscaping crew - listening instead to loud weed trimmers and gas-operated lawnmowers within 10-15 feet of the tent was a challenge.

2. The downside to the Hapuna to us was the dining choices.

3. The only downside I would see is the limitation of restaurants choice for the evening.

4. The biggest downside however was the fact that the front door didnt go all the way to the floor so there was a gap at the bottom.

5. If I had to give downsides they would be: issues with internet service (we were never able to log on) and not much vegetarian food, but that was no surprise.

6. the only downside I would say is it is fairly isolated (about 40 minutes from kona) and food, internet was expensive (but then again this is hawaii)and it is about 15 min from the nearest town so it's a drive to get anything.

7. The only downside was that if you don't want to eat in the hotel you need to drive rather than walk to nearby restaurants.

10. The only downside was that we were at the hotel during a 'kids eat free' offer, but none of the staff appeared to be aware of this.
