Erin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Expensive and underwhelming

In general, the hotel was very dated and I was also underwhelmed with the room. Nice view, but the bed and couch were very uncomfortable. The AC was cold but blew straight at the pillows (i.e. my face). Sheet and top were very thin, so I had to ask housekeeping for a proper blanket. The food and drinks were good, and no reservation was needed for the pool chairs.

Great service from front desk staff. The view from the room was breathtaking and the room itself was clean and quite large. The Royal Kona Resort is conveniently located to Kailua-Kona. Recommend!
Dyan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great restaurant at the hotel and easy walking to many others. Great ocean views too. Beautiful sunsets.
Catherine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great affordable option in a great location walkable to all of the beachfront restaurants and shops. We had a nice clean, comfortable room with a balcony overlook the ocean. The gym was functional and clean and the morning yoga was free and great. Only two complaints - the checking process was extremely slow (half-hour wait in line) and they only had rooms with two doubles rather than the king that we reserved.
Sarah, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location, location, location

Excellent location, location, location. On the point, beautiful sunsets from the room or bar/pool. Near shops and restaurants. The staff were friendly and responsive, availability of services good. This resort is older, noticeable in the rooms; loose plumbing, noisy ventilation, a heavy, sticky sliding door to the lanai. However, the bed was very comfortable, linens and towels fresh and clean. Restaurant service was very slow, the food just okay, a lively bar.
