Kona Coast Fishing Holidays

Beautiful resort - peaceful beach, quiet rooms, multiple options for relaxing in the sun and/or shade and accessing water for a cool dip. The Canoe restaurant is absurdly overpriced. A glass of cab wine for $38 and standard cocktails at $27? We easily hit $450 after tip for two people. Good luck finding an ice machine - one per floor and hidden away in a staff only closet. The beach scene is wonderful - as was the beach waitstaff. The early morning water excursions were great. Skip the Luau - it felt like a large format wedding tucked back behind the hotel away from the water/no view of the sunset. However, if you really want the luau experience, pay up for the VIP tickets for superior seating and open bar.

I really enjoyed my stay at Royal Kona Resort. The room had two large floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning views, which made every morning feel special. The price was very reasonable, offering great value for money, and the stay was extremely comfortable. The location is excellent — restaurants and attractions are all within walking distance. Overall, it’s a perfect combination of comfort, scenery, and convenience. I stayed in Room 679 and have one small suggestion. The sliding track of the middle window facing the ocean only allows it to move about two-thirds of the way across, so from the bed I could see only about one-third of the full view. It would be wonderful if all the windows could slide fully to the right so that guests can enjoy the entire ocean view.
