Royal Kona Resort

Royal Kona Resort

8/10 Good
"So, for what hotel is it was great! The staff was super friendly and helpful. The hotel is in great need of updating, but was clean enough (room wise). The desk clerk was amazing and let us check in early so we could freshen up for the luau. We had breakfast in the morning and it was so beautiful to watch the waves and dolphins while eating pretty good food. Its not a luxury hotel, but i would stay again for a few days as it was convenient to things to do and clean and a safe place"

"Such a cool experience staying at a beautiful B&B on a coffee farm! The property was peaceful and secluded, but still a short drive from Kona town and the airport. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the breakfast was delicious. Dan was a wonderful host and chef. Thanks for the great hospitality!"
