Mylinh Sent on 07/23/2024So glad we decided on King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel for our wedding
We got married at the Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel. Melanie and the entire team went above and beyond in every way possible.
Melanie made the planning process so easy (we had a wedding planner; shout out to Sunshower Wedding!). We had not been to venue before our wedding, but never had a doubt the day would be amazing. The most stressful part of the planning process was deciding on a drink package!
We had the cocktail hour, ceremony and dance party at the Imu Grounds. It was gorgeous and perfect for our party of 95. Dinner and first dance was at the Luau Grounds timed perfectly at sunset.
We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day (no rain nor was it too hot), but there was a moment the forecast was showing rain. The hotel had a contingency plan for us in case it rained (we found out afterwards that’s not always done). The wedding would have moved into one of their beautiful ballrooms which we would have been quite happy with.
Thank you again, Melanie and team! And so sorry for getting our reviews up so late. -

Emily Sent on 11/23/2024Loved renewing our vows
This was such a special event that my husband and I did. The hotel staff made it such a special occasion and I was clear that they were just as touched and full of love as my husband and I. Next time I’d recommending paying extra for a photography as I would’ve loved pictures of the special memory. -

We had a wonderful stay and special event. Staff, property and amenities are fantastic! -

My wife and I had a great time. The location is perfect, the hotel has all of the appropriate amenities. I took advantage of the vow renewal service since my wife and I were vacationing for our 20th wedding anniversary. The service exceeded my expectations and was an amazing memory for us! -

It was a pleasure to plan our son’s wedding breakfast at the King Kamehameha hotel. Melanie was very helpful and responsive. She made the planning process easy and seamless connecting us with all of the vendors and a wonderful officiant. The wedding was absolutely beautiful. The breakfast following the ceremony was perfect! Everyone raved about the food. We can’t thank Melanie and the staff for making it a perfect day! -

Lisa Sent on 08/03/2019Unexpected Wedding
We had only gone to look at Venues for a wedding. Melanie put together our wedding in two days. It was more than we aline could have put together in months. We had Hawaiian traditions with Christian vows. There was no stress on us. We streamed it live on Facebook thanks to Melanie and it was like our friends and family was there. Now the King Kamehameha hotel family is like our family. Leaving, one of the valets played Brown Eyed Girl on my recently purchased ukulele for us! Amazing experience. -

Sean Sent on 05/29/2019Everything we could have asked for and more!
Our wedding at the Marriott was exactly what we wanted. We communicated with Melanie for a full year before our wedding and she was incredibly professional and helpful, always providing quick, detailed responses to our questions and always available to talk if we needed to.
This was a destination wedding for us and we went ahead with arranging a wedding at this location despite never having visited, which gave us obvious reservations - we never should have worried at all. Everything was perfect, the location was beautiful and Melanie had all the details taken care of. It was wonderful.
Although it is pretty rare to rain, we did have rain on our wedding night and Melanie was quick to offer us an indoor alternative on the day. Even after we decided to just have fun in the rain instead, all the hotel staff continued to be lovely while having to work our wedding and getting wet. We were very happy we did it outside despite the rain, in fact it made for a very comfortable event in the heat.
We would highly recommend this venue for your wedding, Melanie is very easy to work with and will do her best to accommodate your requests. We couldn't have been happier with the result. -

It was extremely easy to work with Melanie and others on staff at king kam. This was an absolute dream come true. Our entire event and the days leading up went perfectly. Melanie was available for all and any questions we had and also made sure that everything was perfect for us. Our friends and family had a great time visiting and sharing this experience. -

I am a wedding planner and had a pleasure of coordinating a wedding at Courtyard Marriott King Kamehameha alongside with Melanie Lucas, the Catering Manager of this resort. It was a wonderful experience working on the wedding at this venue! Great staff, great amenities, great customer service. I have also attended multiple events as a guest. The execution is always very good! I recommend this venue for your next event! -

Sheri Sent on 10/05/2013The King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel was the perfect spot for our marriage. There are many spots to choose from on their grounds, from beach to oceanfront, to lawn areas. Stephen, the coordinator was a tremendous help and the hotel provided wonderful catering and service for a very reasonable price. Wonderful setting, food, service, price, we really could not have been more happy with them! -

Overall Perfect Experience
It was turn key, stress free, romantic and at a beautiful setting.
Melanie Lucas and her team really know what they are doing. They made us feel special and relaxed. All you need to do is follow Melanie instructions and show up in your attire.
I was an overall perfect experience. -
