Room

At the heart of the Royal Kona Resort is the Ali'i Tower, which is home to the open-air lobby, Front Desk, and Don the Beachcomber restaurant. The Lagoon Tower, on the South side of the resort, overlooks the private beach area and saltwater lagoon. It also houses a beauty salon and self-service laundry. To the North, closest to Kailua Kona, is the Bay Tower in which the massage and spa center can be found.

Dining

Designed by renowned Tiki architect George "Pete" Wimberly, the soaring, sheltering roofline of the resort's signature Don the Beachcomber Restaurant perfectly sets a tropical theme. Hawaiian music wafts through the dining areas, flowing past the shaded, waterside tables. Don't be surprised if you are treated to views of spinner dolphins, or starting in late October, migrating humpback whales whose breathtaking aerial performances bring the whole bay to a standstill. The dining is as spectacular as the view - a fusion of Asian influence, European technique, and the finest, freshest local ingredients inspire the mouth-watering flavors at Don the Beachcomber Restaurant and Mai Tai Bar.

Recreation

The Big Island of Hawaii, simply called the "Big Island" by locals, is almost twice the size of all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. In fact, so large is the island that it includes all but two of the entire world's climactic zones, making it unrivaled in the breadth of activities it offers. Despite the incredible diversity to be found throughout the island, many agree that the historic seaside town of Kailua-Kona, the setting for the Royal Kona Resort, is the island's most sought-after location. From shopping to dining, snorkeling to sunset cocktails, we are certain you'll agree.
