Great location. Room assigned ocean view next to sanctuary, nice to see birds flying and gentle sounds. Walkable restaurants, markets. Cove beach. Room air conditioner can be tricky. To keep room cool, close blinds. Reusable water bottles given at ckeck-in. Water filters and ice near elevator in floor. Fridge and kreurig provided. Coffee shop and shave ice is good.

We originally only visited the hotel for the Big Island Luau which was great then our flight was cancelled and we needed a hotel for one night and got a room. The king bed room was very clean, spacious and comfortable. The only problem we had was with the shower that was clogged so the water filled up to your ankles. We contacted front desk and no one was able to help us because the engineers were gone for the day. They did offer us new room but it was after midnight and we were too tired to move. The breakfast buffet was delicious and hotel staff was very nice. Besides the flooded shower it was a nice stay for us.

House keeping did not show up in spite of repeated calls to the front desk. The wrist bands stopped working after a couple of days. The lady at the front desk and the Assistant Manager were extremely, rude, impolite, and disrespectful. The Assistant Manager was in fact very loud and abusive ion her interaction. I strongly encourage people to find a better place since this is not the kind of customer service anyone should be subject to, especially after paying such an exorbitant price. Our vacation dollars would have been better spent somewhere else - totally disappointed.

This hotel is in a great location to explore Kona. That’s the reason to stay here. It’s very old and doesn’t look like it’s ever been updated or remodeled. Staff was average at best. Day one we had a cleaning lady bust into our room one hour after check in without knocking. Not a good look. There was a young, super obnoxious and cocky pool boy walking around the pool like he owned the place. Short, rude, napoleon complex. I would not stay at this hotel again.

Beware that if you request an ocean view room, you are likely going to get a large view of the lobby roof top and and tiny view of the ocean to the side. They were kind of sneaky about this. Some people are okay with a view of the roof top but if you are turned off by looking out and seeing a black flat surface for your ocean view. you really need to request an ocean view. pool was good as well as the restaurant

I would give a higher rating but there were construction noises everyday since our first day in the room next door. I asked my elderly mother if we should request another room but she said that would be difficult for her to pack and move again. My suggestion is to advise the guest at the front desk before they unpack that there is construction in the next room so they are informed and offered a room with no construction going on next door and comp the guest or refund if its a downgrade. The carpet also has a weird smell and the bathroom cleanliness was not the standard we would give a 9 or 10 to. The bathroom was dusty and the facil tisse was half used from previous guest.

Liked:
Excellent service, helpful staff, comfortable beds, great location by downtown Kona, convenient and plentiful parking, good coffee and shave ice places inside the hotel, on the beach, nice swimming pool, good towel service, good pool bar/restaurant, 24 fitness room, spa on site, convenient ABC store inside the hotel, laundry on site, easy pickup for tours, lots of coffee and shopping nearby, never had to wait long for an elevator or pool towel.

Didn't like:
Hot tub is not hot (it's barely warm), toilets in rooms are so shallow you can't wipe yourself, bathrooms are dated, bathroom doors are awkward shutter style wood sliders and are noisy at night and not very private, showers and bathroom ceilings are old/dingy, patio slider is heavy wood door and would rather have sheer curtain plus easy to open blackout curtain, \"Ocean View\" is misleading and should be called \"Partial Ocean View\" as you can't see the ocean without going outside or craning your neck - it is mostly a view of the roof, the breakfast restaurant closes at 10am which makes no sense when this is a vacation destination, restaurant coffee was expensive and bad and there's no excuse for bad coffee in Kona, and the housekeeping is only every other day which also makes no sense in a beach location where rooms get dirty and badly need a daily cleaning even with just two people.

Spent 3 nights with ocean view. Enjoyed the balcony which we sat on to read and enjoy the views. Bed was comfortable. Didn’t care for the sliding bathroom door as you could hear everything going on in there. Ocean view was nice but also overlooked the pool so it was noisy until 10 pm every night. Staff was friendly and helpful. Great location near restaurants. The coffee shop in the building was nice for a quick breakfast or snack. ABC store in the complex too in case you need anything.

I’ve stayed here twice and this hotel is really special! The downtown shopping and restaurant area, is literally right there…you can walk to everything from this hotel.

The property itself, is lovely — with lots shops, an ABC store, coffee shop, restaurant, as well as pool, bar and small beach. For me, the best thing is all the beautiful artwork and history surrounding King Kamehameha, his family and heirs. Hawaii has a rich history, and it’s on display at this hotel!

The rooms are clean, quiet and comfortable. I will stay again!

We chose the double queen room with ocean view. It is partial view because of the way the buildings are situated. You need to get a room overlooking the ocean for a full ocean view. Otherwise the view is still beautiful. Beds are high so if you have a disability, or elderly it would be best to request a room for disabled or handicapped. The bathroom is set up with wheelchair access and grab bars and space for toilet easy access and space. Rooms are close to elevator and the ice and water machines on each floor. ABC convenience store, clothing, art coffee shop. There is a calendar of scheduled activities to learn hula and lei making. Tennis court, pool and beach access, cabanas and can be set up for a wedding destination. I was there with my elderly mother for a wedding. It was so beautiful. About of Hawaiians art and a Heiau as well. Perfect for water sport and there are lots of off property shops and restaurants. Kailua-Kona has grown so much. And the Courtyard Marriott has done a great Job renovating the property. What else can I say, I was pleasantly surprised and will stay there again. Rooms are very clean, staff is pleasant and helpful, breakfast buffet available or menu. Great place to stay.

We loved this hotels location right in the heart of Kona. The beach right by the pool was very nice and a short walk to many restaurants and shops. The beds were very comfortable and the balconies were a nice place to take in the fresh air. The rooms were nice relatively recent renovations. The kids enjoyed the pool and the beach. The restaurant breakfast buffet was nice as well. The staff was all friendly and helpful. Our favorite part of our stay is that we were lucky to be there during a Hawaii cultural festival the hotel hosts first weekend in June. Amazing experience and so much talent!

The resort rooms are on the small side and they have microwaves available but you need to request (no information offered at check in). They clean only every 5th day but give towels on request. Restaurant closes at 9 PM and very limited choices. But the pool is great and lots to do nearby. It is worth paying for beach view--partial view is basically none at all. The small beach is nice. Best place for breakfast inside is King's Coffee--open early with excellent choices and great lattes.

The beach was crowded and open to public. There are homeless people camped at the side of the building near the beach which we didn’t feel safe. Too crowded and loud; there’s no place to relax. There is also additional resort fee which it didn’t make sense as there’s only a small poll; the place is more like a hotel than a resort. The front desk staff were not welcoming; barely a small; just check guests in. This is the worse “resort” place I ever stayed at and I will NEVER EVER going back.

It was a great place to stay! Beautiful property! Within walking distance of tons of shopping and eating! Ocean right out the door! Very secure, all doors are locked at night and only way in is with your key. We had a partial ocean view room, half was the roof of the building other half was ocean view but it was still a good view! Lots of history of the island is on display for you to view and learn! Room was quiet, we heard nothing from the busy street right out front! The downside….housekeeping only comes every other day, which means you have to call down to get more towels and empty your garbages, I wish at least they would drop towels off for you. Parking is 35 a night, everywhere is paid parking but I wish the parking was included in your stay, for the price that you pay for the room! Hotel food and drinks are twice the price of anywhere else, 1 min walk and you can save hundreds!
Overall, I would stay here again, the location is what make it stand out!

The hotel is dated and need full renovation.
The location is good but in some areas they allow outside people to use the amenities.
I had a late fight leaving Kona 9:55pm and asked for a possible extension of my stay willing to pay additional charge for the extra hours.
Basically they said they were totally booked so I need to pay full day charge to stay an extra 5 hours in my room. It was a rip-off!
Then, I found out that the hotel was not fully booked like they said.
Front desk staff was not friendly.
Also, they wrongly charged me $73.30 for a restaurant meal. Trying to contact them, but nobody call me back.
Daily rate too high for what you are getting back.

Overall positive. Drive-up was easy and door staff friendly. I was a bit frustrated at check-in. I was in the Elite line with a single attendant. There were 3 for everyone else so we were being lapped. Even when there was noone in the standard line none of the attendants helped those of us in the Elite line. Never experienced that before.
Room clean, nice view. West tower, looking over the lagoon. Would suggest doing something with the roof we overlooked; its a bit of an eyesore. Maybe a green roof? Tax break, maybe?
I was given a different room than I reserved: 2 doubles instead of a King. For some reason that was not mentioned at check-in (also a concern) but staff made of for it when I called. Good service recovery; very pleasant individual.
Loved the artwork in the lobby leading to the West wing; great cultural exposure. Parking abundant. Liked the pool and bubbly hot tub!

My partner and I both loved our stay at the Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel. There were so many wonderful things that we enjoyed. It was a beachfront hotel, so just a quick walk out of the lobby and you're at a pool with a hot tub and a little beach with a lagoon that opens to the sea. We enjoyed the refreshing water and being able to see fish in the water at our feet. There were also many walkable shops and restaurants; it's very close to Ali'i Drive where all the shops are. We enjoyed lunch at a nice grill and breakfast at a local coffee shop nearby. The views were amazing and the service was outstanding with a lot of aloha. There are also many services in the hotel, like UFO parasailing, which we did and thoroughly enjoyed. There is also a beautiful art exhibit of King Kamehameha the Great.

Your hotel stands out for its abundance of choices and impeccable customer service. Specifically, the concierge department delivered warm, genuine care with no pretense, no burnout, no eye-rolling, no profiling, and no snobbery. In over 30 years of traveling, this is the best concierge department I have had the pleasure of experiencing.

I was satisfied with the first two rooms during my week-long stay. Unfortunately, the last room had such a strong moldy,musty odor, that I used it only as a luggage hold and for a quick morning shower. Furniture was old, but by fat the worst part was the shower itself: heavily rusted metal frame with sharp rusted edges, including a sharp protruding piece that cut my ankle quite deeply when I stepped out of it.

I did not mention this to anyone until now for a reason. The hotel was sold out the day of my departure, and I did not want to add stress to a busy staff. Only after reflecting on possible risk of harm to another guest, did I decide to share this information in this review once it popped up. I did appreciate the strong aspects of my visit ,and hope this helps your hotel maintain its high standards.

Approached the front desk to ask if they had a room for 4 stranded travelers. We were asked bruskly what flight had been canceled. We explained that we were kamaaina and we were stranded because the road had been closed between kona and ocean view. We were once again told bruskly that she had a room available, but we didn't qualify for stranded traveler.And they did not accept walk in business.So we would have to book a full price room online only. So much for aloha! Ended up paying close to seven hundred dollars , including an outrageous forty dollars for parking! The facility and the room itself was more in keeping with a two hundred dollar rate. After checking in and then being misinformed about dining facilities for that evening and the next morning, we went to the drive through fast food joint and headed to our room for the night. All in all, marriott ended up adding insult to injury that stormy evening.

It is a good hotel but don't expect anything special, even for the high price. There is coffee in the room, but only paper cups. The ocean view isn't actually ocean view, it is only partial because your actual view are the other balconies across from you. You have to lean out and to the side to see the water. The beach is nice but has no chairs or umbrellas. You could only rent a cabana for additional $$. Room was clean but the daily cleaning was not that thourough. Closet space was small. Pool area is nice but they do come around and aggressively place drink menues on your little table. I just came to relax and have water though 😃 The weirdest thing is though that they send out these emails before your trip saying \"We're so excited for your stay.. let us know what we can do.. bla bla\" When I actually responded that it's my husbands 50th Birthday and asked if they do anything for birthdays, there wasn't even a reply. I didn't expect much but not even a \"Happy Birthday\" reply is lame 😅 I really liked the ice machine and water dispenser though. It was great to get as much fresh drinking water as I wanted every day. The location is great, too. It's walking distance to everything in town and the Kona Pier is right there aswell. The attached ABC store is super convenient 👌 All in all it is a good hotel but don't expect \"fancy\" or \"special\" even though it's expensive.

The rooms were clean and the views were amazing. We loved the access to the beach steps from our room. The morning staff, especially Matt, were amazing when we realized they gave us the wrong room the night before, he went above and beyond! I wish I could have seen him again. The front desk staff in the afternoons and evenings were very rude, acted like they don’t want any mainlanders there. With rooms had some issues, our last room the shower water was scalding hot unless you left it on for 10 mins before you got in.

If you want a beautiful view, amazing staff at the restaurant, and easy access to an incredible luau and little beach, this is the place for you. We personally will find something else next time.

The resort was in a prime location with a little bay. In the bay you could do some snorkeling and see a variety of fish. At night, we saw Manta Ray out by the pier as well

The staff were amazing very kind and professional. We were very disappointed in the room the we originally were given. We paid for an ocean front room 6+ months in advance which we thought would be one of the best rooms. The view from the second floor was the roof top the restaurant and the parking lot. We were so upset that we asked to be moved to a standard room which viewed the side with the tennis courts. I think Marriot should be ashamed for calling that and charging for an oceanfront. Today now we are at a different hotel with a beautiful ocean front view.

Pros:
Great location
Friendly staff
Beach access

Cons:
Dated rooms
$35 per day parking
Oceanview room (balcony) very limited even when leaning over balcony rail

We stayed for 6 days and had mixed feelings for reasons above.

We expected more from the Marriot brand. Room and bathroom was small with lime scale on the shower track and old chipped paint on door jams and other areas. The double queen room had a single nightstand between the beds. The website said the room was \"oceanview (balcony)\" which cost more. The ocean could only be seen from one chair on the balcony and that was very limited even when hanging your head over the balcony. Housekeeping was every other day.

The location was very central and walkable to many restaurants and shops. Staff was very friendly. Especially at the pool.
