Kailua-Kona, HI -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/03/2013 -- West Hawaii (that is, the Western—leeward—side of the Big Island) is a good deal less inhabited, than the Eastern half. This is good news to people who like nature relatively untouched.

However, more wilderness doesn't mean fewer creature comforts. The town of Kailua-Kona is a major tourism and commerce center, and our Royal Kona Resort sits right in the middle of the town, minutes on foot away from great shopping, and minutes on transport away from forest and sea.

This is why it's such a fun place to bring your whole family. An article we recently published introduces a number of reasons that a stay at Royal Kona is bound to be both a stimulating and a low-stress experience for children (and, by extension, their parents as well).

Children under 10 require a great deal of care, and show many tendencies that makes it hard for them to function in the context of airline travel or major public spaces—they are easily bored, tire quickly, but also develop quick spurts of energy, during which it's hard to quiet them down; furthermore, they always need close supervision, and safety can be a challenge in many everyday situations.

Royal Kona is a convenient place to address the parent's concerns. Our resort not only has a child-friendly pool, but also an exclusive lagoon where your kids can dive and snorkel safely, cut off from the ocean at large. How many other places can boast such a convenience?

Dining and shopping can also be tricky to manage with children, but with Royal Kona's prime location and proximity to many fine gift shops, markets and restaurants, you can get just about anything Hawaii has to offer without having to embark on a long car trip.

And you will have plenty of money to spend, since our accommodations are extremely affordable, and better yet—children under a certain age are allowed to stay in their parents' rooms for free. This means that a family of up to 2 adults and 2 children can stay in one double room, which start at under $200.

We should note that Royal Kona doesn't only welcome families— one of the great things about our resort is our versatility and range. We are equipped to welcome sports aficionados, business travelers, gourmands and lovers of the sea; we're especially happy to see couples who just have or are about to get married, with several Hawaii resort wedding packages and honeymoon specials available to choose from.

No matter why—and with whom—you're traveling to Hawaii, Royal Kona has a friendly experience in store for you. Come to our site and reserve your vacation package today!
