For guests looking for a polished island dinner experience with beautiful surroundings and attentive service, Roy’s Waikoloa Bar & Grill offers a memorable evening along the Kohala Coast. Located within the King’s Shops at Waikoloa Beach Resort, this longtime Big Island favorite blends Hawaiʻi-inspired cuisine with relaxed elegance and scenic golf course views.
It’s a lovely option for date nights, celebratory dinners, or evenings when guests want to slow down, enjoy excellent food, and settle into the warm atmosphere of the island after a day in the sun.
Roy’s Waikoloa Bar & Grill is located approximately 11 minutes from Hale Mele by car via Highway 19, making it an easy and convenient dining outing from the Mauna Lani area.
Surrounded by lava fields, historic petroglyph areas, and the King’s Trail, the restaurant sits within the King’s Shops overlooking the King’s Course fairway and lake. The setting feels both tropical and refined, offering guests a peaceful place to enjoy dinner while taking in the beauty of the Waikoloa resort area.
Known for exceptional service and Hawaiʻi-inspired cuisine, Roy’s focuses on fresh local ingredients and creatively prepared island dishes. The atmosphere is upscale without feeling overly formal, making it comfortable for couples, families, and groups celebrating special occasions together.
Dinner service is currently offered daily from 4:30 PM to 8:30 PM. Many guests enjoy arriving around sunset to experience the softer evening light across the golf course and lava landscape before dinner begins.
One of the pleasures of staying at Hale Mele is how easy it is to enjoy memorable island dinners without needing to venture far from home. Roy’s Waikoloa Bar & Grill offers the kind of evening that pairs naturally with the slower rhythm of Hawaiʻi — good food, warm air, beautiful scenery, and unhurried time together before returning home to the quiet comfort of Hale Mele.
