Royal Kona Resort
For a “resort”, we rate it ok. Front desk and concierge were not great or helpful- except cleaning service. Didn’t seem to wow us except for the ocean view. It is in a nice location, very walkable.

Kona Coast Resort
Room was very clean and location is good. It’s about 20 minutes south of the main part of Kona. We didn’t use the pools but they have plenty.
