A new hotel, Pacific 19 Kona, is slated to open this spring in Kailua-Kona on Hawaii Island. The 122-room property occupies one of the two buildings that comprised Kona Seaside Hotel. Investment and development firm Nine Brains acquired the building in 2020 for an undisclosed sum. The other 30-room building of the Kona Seaside Hotel is still in operation. The property closed for renovations in October 2022 and is now accepting reservations for dates starting in April. The company describes its target market for the hotel as 'adventure travelers,' and said it provides guests with access to what it calls 'custom-tailored island itineraries.
