We found the Royal Kahana to be a 33 year old, 12 story resort suffering from an abundance of apparent maintenance issues and problems. That, coupled with a staff that seemed to be unconcerned and uncaring as well as extremely unfriendly, made this a poor value for what they charge per night. It was quite obvious to us that the resort’s attitude and approach is to “band-aid” things instead of an on-going regular maintenance program. Parking is totally inadequate and a large number of parking spaces are marked “reserved.” Many of those spaces went unused during our stay. A large area of parking spaces was being utilized for the storage of old furnishings, equipment, building materials and even a huge pile of sandbags. The resort has 3 elevators but most of the time only 2 were operating. The exterior lighting, especially around the lone barbeque adjacent to the pool, was inadequate. At night, the lighting in that area was working, but it was covered by shrubbery that needed trimming, making it almost nonexistent. The pool area was extremely small for the 230 plus units in the resort. There weren’t enough lounges or chairs around the pool or on the small grass area near the beach. Many guests were overheard complaining about this problem while sunbathing around the pool. The air conditioning was barely adequate and ran most of the time, but never seemed to cool the unit down. There are several resorts along Lower Honoapiilani Road in Kahana that have a lot more to offer at a much cheaper price. Do yourself a favor and opt for one of those, not this one!
