This property is run down. Roach infested and water linking from the restrooms. I was moved from one room to another and conditions remained. I would not recommend a stay here. You are better off at a Motel 6.

The property is right on a commercial street and costal line, I like that. It is clean and most of the staff are nice. It is very noisy at night, even after midnight. The nearby restaurant On the Rock makes their long lasting annoying music too loud, that I hear it on 7th floor like I am in street hear 10 cars alarm on together. One front desk staff suggests to move me to different room in the middle of the the night, and another staff says nothing the hotel can do about the noise, that the restaurant is “following the law”-she wasn’t in my room experiencing the noise and measuring it. Very disappointed about how the property handles the on going noise problem.

Check in person was short with me when asking questions. If I would have known that there is a $30 (approximate) daily charge, I would not have booked at the resort. I thought we booked an ocean view, got move to a different building with upgrade (supposably) and room over looked parking lot. Room was not sound proof, as nearby bar music was clearly heard with window closed and sliding shutters closed. Very upset over all with Expedia (not clear explanation of resort charges) and hotel. READ the fine print.

Overall our stay at The Royal Kona Resort was amazing. Our ocean front view from our balcony was incredible. As they say.....location, location, location. The Luau on the property was great. Our dinners at Don's Maitai and tiki bar were the best. Really only one complaint. They have a 2 cup coffee maker in the room. We went to Walmart on the first night and bought a $13 12 cup coffee maker.Problem solved.

Nice hotel, would benefit from some renovations. Would be great if they add some furniture to the balcony of the room, lots of space but no couch or some sort of chair/recliner to enjoy the sun. But good affordable hotel overall.
