Location, location, location rings true for this recently renovated oceanfront hotel in downtown Kona. Previously the site of the capital of the Hawaiʻian Kingdom, the building is situated on the west side of Kona Harbor. The hotel is within a 5-minute walk of the Hulihe`e Palace Museum, two minutes to shops and has seasonal Luaus. Honu’s on the Beach Restaurant is open daily for breakfast and dinner. For activities, Kona Boys run a SUP, kayak rental program right on front on the beach. The King Kamehameha’s Kona Beach Hotel rooms are modern and feature island and nature inspired décor — not only that but each one has a refrigerator, coffee machine and is stocked with Kona coffee.
