Kailua-Kona Hotel Guide. Hotels in Alii Kai, Kailua-Kona, United States of America

"I love staying at the Royal Kona. I think it’s a great value for so many reasons. Great room options, especially if you want to save a few dollars on renovation rates. On the ocean with a pool and a saltwater beach I haven’t gotten to enjoy yet (my fault!). Restaurant is right by the pool so you can grab drinks or food. The restaurant does breakfast starting at 06:30! I think they end dinner at 21:30. Ice machine and purified water station, wifi, parking if you don’t mind a $25 daily rate. There’s parking in general in the area but it can get pretty busy. In the heart of Kailua-Kona so if you plan on staying on Ali’i Drive and taking advantage of amenities there without a car rental, you might be able to make it work. I appreciate the welcome package: two bottles waters in your fridge and two drink ticket for Mai Tai’s but I believe you can get mocktails instead if you prefer. I think it’s pretty wheelchair/walker accessible: ramps and elevators that are pretty well kept up. I have to say even the partial ocean views make all of this worth it. Waking up to stunning blue waters and waving palm trees is hard to beat. Then you can just wander out to the nearby beaches or to the many shops and restaurants nearby. I don’t really see a need to stay anywhere else if I’m honest! You can feel the love and alpha from everyone at this resort. Can’t wait to be back!"

"Zero complaints"

"Apt was fabulous: clean, comfortable, spacious, and modern. The portable AC unit had a locking device on it so we weren't able to cool down the apartment. We made good use of the ceiling fans and pedestal fan. We had a difficult time finding the apartment within the complex. Now that we have some idea of the complex layout, we'd stay at this place again."

"All good!"

"Overall this is nice property 8/10. Clean well manicured botanical grounds with a quiet large patio area with AMAZING SUSNET Views. Soothing crashing waves all day and night however NO immediate ocean swimming or beach access (drive / walk for that) No onsite food / bar NOT GOOD was having to punch in a 6 to10 digit code on a keypad EVERY TIME FOR EVERY pool gate, the 1 elevator and our condo door. With multiple people in our group this became VERY frustrating. Been decades since we have stayed anywhere without a key card / digital entry. First desk staff contact with a male employee 👎 was dismissive and unpleasant to say the least. He was flat out RUDE however the 2 ladies later that afternoon were Fantastic! No parking issues and this location and it is about a 5 minute drive to all the local shops, restaurants / bars and night life. Would stay here again but only after exploring other priorities in the Kona area. "
