This hotel has a prime beachfront location and offers exceptional customer service across the board. The amenities are decent, though the new resort fee felt a bit unnecessary for what was offered. While the rooms provided stunning views, some housekeeping issues in our specific room detracted from the overall experience. The breakfast buffet was enjoyable, but the limited hours for the pool and game room left us wanting more.

The Courtyard by Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel offers a prime location surrounded by dining options and various activities. The pools and beach area provide a decent spot for relaxation, though the beach itself isn't particularly stunning. Service at the front desk was impressive, especially during unforeseen circumstances. However, the hotel feels a bit dated and lacks some finer touches that could elevate the experience.

I had a wonderful experience at King Kamehameha Kona. The staff were attentive, and the buffet breakfast was delicious and included, making my stay even sweeter. The only downside was the initial room allocation, which was lower than expected, but I received great assistance to resolve it. Overall, it was a fantastic place to enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian experience.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. On one hand, the front desk staff were exceptionally warm and helpful, making my arrival and check-in very pleasant. On the other hand, I encountered several issues with housekeeping and room conditions that were quite disappointing. I appreciated the great breakfast service, but the overall experience could have been better with improved maintenance and guest attention.
