    Enjoyed the luxury!

    These are luxury accommodations and not the best options for those looking for a bargain. We arranged our beach umbrella and chairs before my husband and I arrived for under $80 per day. Our daily breakfast choice included in the price was a number of styles of eggs benedict plus fresh Hawaiian juice. Drinks at the palapa bar were expensive, but a heavy pour of alcohol. We had a garden view and enjoyed walking out into the lush landscaping every day. Our bargain was to purchase pineapple wine at an ABC store for under $20 / bottle. It was a wonderful get away from the cold Colorado winter!

    No warm welcome - just a cash grab of fees

    We booked a king bedded room on line as originally it was just going go be my husband and I. About a week before I changed the reservation to 2 queen beds as our son would be joining us - no mention by reservation staff about new fees and charges. We arrived at 8:30am aware that we had not pre registered so we most likely would have to wait. The front desk associate berated us for arriving early and said she could waive the early check in fee. We are frequent international travelers and have never heard of this - you take your chances - the room is either ready or you wait Next we were advised we would have to pay an extra person fee of $155 per day plus an additional $42 resort fee (even though it is included in the rate) This was our second visit - no welcome back by front desk - it felt like an egregious cash grab/ It is a beautiful hotel but standards don't match their luxury branding~bathroom towels are thin and worn - after paying for beach chairs one of my towels was ripped. Housekeepers were lovely (the hardest working people in the hotel), Mai Tai Bar and coffee bar staff amazing Sadly front desk couldn't do the basics like welcoming us back

    Dated rooms

    Nice hotel overall. 5 star gardens but 4 star rooms, the room which I reserved for five days at Christmas looked very tired. By the way, the hotel charges $100 a day for the hire of an umbrella and two sun loungers on the beach and some people do pay it.

    Christmas at the Royal

    We stayed here over Christmas. The hotel was wonderfully decorated and safe were lovely. Check in was ok, longer then expected and they froze over $1500 USD for 7 nights on our credit cards. Rooms for 2 adults and 2 children were fine. The beds were quite small for 2 adults. There was a lovely balcony in our room included a lounge. There was a full bathroom with a bath, robes and Japanese toilets. All amenities you required or expected. Coffee and jug station and had a fridge. There is a ABC at most corner so we stocked up for the kids. Make sure you get cutlery. There is no room service. Christmas dinner was 3 course and ok, service was excellent. Breakfast is a LONG wait, Keenan and Elaine were amazing and accommodating however it was always + 30 mins. In the end we ordered take away and it was super quick. The food was excellent! Highly recommend the Acai and fruit. If you dont have meals included there are cafes etc everywhere. Pool at RH is small, next-door you can use has slides etc. The beach was super crowded you can purchase lounges for approximately $100 US a day. Towels provided and they have sunscreen stations and refillable water everywhere

    No Room Service at 5 star hotel

    We stopped in Hawaii on the way back from Sydney. We choose the Royal hawaiian because of location and 5 stars We went to order room service and they told us Management decided to cut it out during covid and never brought it back because of cost?? MESSAGE MANAGEMENT COVID IS OVER. This is just a cheap cost cutting idea somewhere that needs to change. I will protest by not returning I honestly wish their was a standard to be able to clean 3 star/ 4 star/ 5 star Basically False advertising
