The Kona Kai Resort is a spectacular waterfront getaway located on beautiful Shelter Island in the Point Loma area of San Diego only minutes from the airport and most of San Diego’s city sights and attractions. The Kona Kai is set on dramatic San Diego Bay and America’s Cup Harbor offering our guests unforgettable views of the marina or downtown San Diego. Known as San Diego’s own Hawaiian Island, Shelter Island and the Kona Kai offer a retreat from the hustle and bustle and yet is only minutes from the dynamic Gaslamp area of San Diego.

The Kona Kai Resort Hotel and Marina has a wonderful atmosphere and colorful history as a destination for travelers from around the world. The recreational features of our 11-acre bayside resort includes the Kona Kai Restaurant, an oversize pool, full service fitness club, spa, sunning beach with volleyball courts, children’s play area, bicycle rentals, water sports, boat rentals and jogging path. In the summer we invite you to our authentic Hawaii luaus on most Fridays (additional charge).

Created for the comfort of the business, pleasure travelers and convention guests, our accommodations offer dazzling balcony views of the bay, marina or tranquil gardens. All of our Island style-inspired guest rooms are designed with your comfort in mind. Our in-room amenities include refrigerators, coffee makers, hair dryers, irons and boards and work desk with telephone/data port. With over 8,000 square feet of indoor space, the Kona Kai is the perfect venue to accommodate your next San Diego meeting, wedding or social event.
