Beautiful hotel with lots of gorgeous landscaping, including a koi pond, and artwork to enjoy while walking along the hallways or pausing to rest at one of the many comfy outdoor seating areas. The large pool was awesome. There were 5 hot tubs, so you didn’t have to wait too long before one became available if you just wanted to hang out in one with your own group. We were in a pool-view room, but there was also a view of the ocean off to our left that only got better if you went out onto the balcony. The nearby beach was also beautiful and relatively calm due to it being a bit more protected by what seems to be a natural harbor. We appreciated the nearby dining options on days when we didn’t want to hunt around for something in town or just got cleaned up from a day hike and didn’t feel like going out in the car again. Sometimes the front desk seemed like it could have been better staffed (especially if you were there after pool house hours and needed to get pool towels) but staff was always courteous and apologized for the wait if there was one. I would definitely consider staying at the Royal Sonesta again.

View from the restaurant area of the beach at night.

This property is beautiful! Easy assess to the beach and pool. There are some restaurants near by and the hotel also had a few, but were expensive! The only issue Ihad was that we didn’t rent a car and there was only one bus tour that picked people up at the property. If you have issues navigating the stairs be careful…the restaurant was down stairs and we could not find an elevator…according to the staff there wasn’t one?

Great stay in a beautiful resort.

Great stay. Had a 2 hr checking in delay but we were able to use the resort facilities so we headed to the beach. Also, we were able to get a 2 hr delay on check out plus we we invited to use the resort facilities even after room checkout. So we hung out at the pool and grabbed some refreshing drinks. The room was spacious and clean. The resort area was beautiful and included the largest swimming pool in Hawaii as well as a nice swimming beach.
