My son noticed what I missed
Curtis A on May 31, 2025
Got a email a month ago about 15% off and when I found out last Thursday I was off on Memorial Day I jumped at the chance to relax even for a day at your hotel. My son and I started staying at your lagoon... tower because it is what I can afford, but we feel good about that place. This was our third stay in less than a year. The front desk was not too busy but I noticed the front desk associates were very friendly helpful and answered questions to the people in front of me. When it was my turn everything was smooth and quick. This time around we didn’t get the lagoon but the Ali’i tower was fine. I think lagoon may have been booked and my reservation was made the Friday prior. Having a room was good enough for us. Staff walking and working the area always friendly and helpful. The grounds and landscaping always enjoyable. My son finally noticed the plumeria growing and ask about it I told him they were little when I saw them last. I stayed at your hotel 38 years ago when it was the Kona Surf if my memory recalls and I never returned til last July. Will try to make it back again by the end of the year. We’re right across the other side of the island. Mahalo for your dedication in taking care of the Kama’aina, and showing the Aloha spirit to the visitors to our island.
Relaxation in paradise.

We had a fabulous stay at the Royal Kona Resort. Our room was spacious, and very comfortable - bed was perfect. It is in a great location – most things are in walking distance. The staff were exceptionally... friendly and helpful. It really is a resort with everything needed for a perfect holiday.
