The Outrigger Kona Resort & Spa recently debuted the new Royal Huakai Suite, as part of its $60 million renovation.
Spread over nearly 2,500 feet, the Royal Huakai Suite is a one-bedroom, two-bathroom accommodation overlooking Keauhou Bay. The spacious living space has a kitchenette, three lanais, office space and a spa-inspired bathroom with a soaking tub.
"Huakai in Hawaiian means trip, voyage or journey, and we chose it to reflect the deep history of exploration in this area while also welcoming our guests as they begin their journey with us," said Nani Kupihe, director of cultural experiences at the Outrigger Kona Resort & Spa. "The Royal Huakai Suite is the perfect name for this room because it celebrates how close we are to the birthplace of King Kamehameha III and honors the voyaging heritage of Keauhou Bay."
Royal Huakai Suite guests also receive access to the enhanced Voyager 47 Club Lounge, which offers coffee and breakfast in the mornings and appetizers and alcoholic beverages in the evening.
