More information on King Kamehamehas Kona Bch Htl

Historic full-service 460 room beachfront resort on scenic bay.

The quiet sheltered bay, balmy trade winds and endless days of brilliant sunshine also made the site of the hotel a favorite vacation spot for Hawaiian royalty. Images and artifacts celebrating its historically significant location can be found throughout the hotel.On the surrounding grounds stands King Kamehameha's restored Hawaiian temple, Ahu'ena Heiau, a stunning foreground for the compelling seascape that the hotel's seaside location provides.
