Vacationing with Kids at Royal Kona, a Fine Resort on Hawaii’s Big Island

The unique thing about Hawaii is that these islands (and most of their resident businesses) are equally welcoming to travelers of every imaginable profile – business people, gourmets, newlyweds and also families with children. Families staying at the resort town of Kailua-Kona on the West side of the Big Island will find that there's plenty of entertainment for kids in that town; and thanks to its prime oceanfront location near the town's center, Royal Kona Resort is minutes walking distance away from the town's attractions.

Here's what our Big Island family vacation resort has to offer to parents and children:

a) Accommodations: The standard rooms offered here are spacious enough to accommodate up to four guests, including 2 adults and 2 children. In fact, children under 17 can stay with their parents at no extra cost, thereby allowing you to plan a family vacation on a reasonable budget. Guests can choose from rooms that look out either on the Pacific Ocean or the beautiful mountains surrounding Kailua-Kona. You can also choose from grander accommodation options, aptly called Corner King Rooms. These are spacious and more comfortable than their standard counterparts.

b) Affordability: When planning family travel to Hawaii, budget becomes an important consideration. Our standard rooms are available for less than $200 per night. Considering the fact that they can accommodate up to 4 people, this is indeed value for money. The Royal Kona Resort also regularly features vacation specials and value deals, making it the ideal choice for budget vacations – in addition to packages that include lodging and car rentals, there are also ones that are geared towards specific experiences, such as a golfing package that includes several rounds of golf at premium local clubs.

c) Attractions: The resort grounds include a saltwater lagoon that is ideal for children and beginners to learn snorkeling. At high tide, the lagoon attracts beautiful tropical fish, green turtles and other marine life. The Resort also has a children's pool area so parents can relax by the side while their kids play.

Royal Kona also holds a daily Luau Show held against the backdrop of the huge Pacific Ocean. The show highlights Polynesian life that's full of exuberance and high spirits. During this feast, you can sample the Island's authentic cuisine while enjoying traditional Pacific music and dance. There are plenty of activities outside the resort as well. Kona is a great place for snorkeling- not only for children, but for moms and dads as well. Other natural attractions include the Volcano Park, Kula Kai caves and more.

With the great deals and vacation specials at Royal Kona, planning a family vacation in Kailua-Kona is not only fun, but affordable as well. Come to our site and see what specials we have for you today!
