Top Kailua-Kona Hotel Reviews

Royal Kona Resort

Royal Kona Resort

8/10 Good
"It is an older property. The property is undergoing some construction, which did not impact our stay. The rooms are a bit older in style and decor. The main restaurant is closed and has moved to the bar area. One of our room's bugs appeared one evening, and they offered to spray or move us. We opted for the move. That room was similar in decor to the one vacated. The salt pond pool was cool. Great views of the bay. It was within a brief walk to local dining and shopping."

Big Island Retreat

10/10 Excellent
"We really loved our stay here. The location was great as you could easily walk down to the beach and back, having parking and a hose to wash the sand out as well as access to borrow many recreational stull at the home was awesome. We got upgraded for free to a slightly larger room which was really nice and unexpected. Nights were quiet and the bed was comfy. Only improvement in my opinion is maybe adding AC (even a small standing unit) may help. The heat made it a bit hard to sleep but nothing a quick cold shower or a dip in the ocean can't fix. Overall, It was a really nice place to stay, we will definitely stay here again when visiting the Big Island/Kona area."
