Top Makalawena Hotel Reviews

Royal Kona Resort

Royal Kona Resort

8/10 Good
"Beautiful place right on the water with beautiful views, easy access to local shopping and gift shops, restaurants and things to do. The only issue we had was for the "Sunday Evening Buffet"... First when we signed up the night before we were told our reservations were set - but when we showed up we were not on the list. We had to wait for over an hour (the hostess's were kind and truly seemed to care that we were not on the list and did what they could to get us in - Thank you for that). The food was ok - nothing great to talk about - the service needed help (poor lady was running as fast as she could but never seemed to catch up so we did without drinks for most of the meal). Would we come back? Yes... Just not for the Buffet!"

"Everything was great. Nice place, cozy, friendly staff. The only thing was that it was not walking distance to the beach, but that was expected."

"My husband was unexpectedly unable to join me on the trip. But my cousin came along instead. When I explained what happened, they helpfully changed my king room to a double queen. This is my second trip to the Fairmont Orchid. The beach and pool are lovely. The food is fabulous. The grounds are immaculate. The outdoor spa can't be beat with the sound of the running water. I had picked the Orchid originally because I wanted a place my husband would enjoy while I was off scuba diving. With my cousin with me (who also dives), I sometimes wished we were closer to the harbor. But, the Orchid really can't be beat for a beautiful spot to enjoy (and it is close to some of the lovely state beaches to the north -- not that you need to go to them given the lovely cove with drinks service!!) Oh! And if you happen to be there on a "talk story" weekend at the nearby Eva Parker Woods Cottage, you should go!"

"Nice hotel EXCEPT my resort view room looked over a large rooftop of gravel. Not the view in the website pictures. Busy location with shops and places to eat. Good on-site breakfast buffet with lots of choices. Asked for late checkout but didn't get it. Had to ask for temporary passes to use resort while waiting for evening flight and was given a wrist band for pool but not able to use a bathroom with it??? That was very inconvenient. Something about a system upgrade which was supposed to be seamless. Too bad it wasn't. Front desk staff just okay."
