Landmark heart-of-Kailua hotel fully remodeled and still a good deal
Enjoy Big Island aloha spirit in the heart of Kailua town at the landmark King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel. Rising just off the waterfront on famed Alii Drive, totally remodeled guest rooms offer bay views and updated amenities including free Wi-Fi Internet access. A large swimming pool, restaurant and bar complete the deal. This hotel was once a royal residence and displays exquisite artifacts that tell the story and celebrate Hawaiian culture. Kona's best shopping and dining is steps away.

Great Place

this was our second stay at King K. Location is great, right along the strip for shopping, food, what ever you may be looking for. The rooms are clean and well appointed. Don't expect a whopping beach view, they just don't exist here. Overall it was a great trip and we would stay here again.

If you plan to go on the snorkel/dolphin boat, make sure to take a anti-nausea remedy before going. The ocean can be rough even on the nicest day. Everything was very convenient to this hotel including the pier where you can take a boat outing.

Great Location

I picked this hotel for it's location and price for an over night island hop from Maui. The location worked so well with the tour pickups that I only used 1.1 gallons of gasoline in the rental jeep for all my driving needs. We didn't have time to use many of the fetures of this hotel due to our itenerary and short stay. The staff was great and the room imacculate. Easy walking distance to shopping and dinning and activities.

Buns In The Sun Bakery. Great food and good price. Other resturants and grocery store located in same shopping center. The walk is up hill about 4 blocks away and there are many choices on both sides of the street. I try to always ask locals where they eat and it almost always exceeds my expectations.

Very good family getaway.

This hotel is very very good, but if suite has a couple of spoons\forks plus plate, and more comfortable pillows, that will be even better. And location just awesome!!!!
