Just what the doctor ordered.
The Aloha spirit is alive and well at the Royal Kona Resort! Mahalo for making our stay so enjoyable! It was exactly what we were hoping for and more!

4/10 Fair

Beautiful spot but too expensive
Hotel is in the perfect location. It is old and outdated. Paint and new decor is not enough to say it has been renovated. The bathroom shower was in terrible condition. The price per night is far too high for this hotel. Adding a resort fee for little to no amenities is unfair.
