Palau Royal Resort  

On Malakal Island’s waterfront in Koror, this beach resort puts you steps from the Rock Islands Southern Lagoon and Rock Islands. Long Island Park, Asahi Stadium and the Palau Aquarium are all close by, making it a great base for island exploration and snorkeling trips.

Choose from 157 air-conditioned rooms with minibars, refrigerators and flat-screen TVs. Many rooms open to private furnished balconies with waterfront views, and bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs and shower/tub combinations. The property keeps a romantic, island-vibe atmosphere while staying simple and comfortable.

Pamper yourself at the spa with massages, facials and body treatments, or lounge on the private beach and by the outdoor pool. Active days can include the fitness center, mini-golf, diving club, table tennis and sauna/steam rooms. Kids’ playrooms, a library, gift shops and concierge services add convenience — plus free self-parking for guests. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings from your balcony.

Featured business services include complimentary wired internet access, a business center and a computer station. Limo/town car service and a roundtrip airport shuttle are available for a surcharge, and laundry/dry cleaning services are on site.

An on-site restaurant with garden views serves local and island-inspired dishes, and a beach bar is perfect for sunset drinks. Buffet breakfasts are offered daily for a fee, and limited room service is available for late arrivals or relaxed evenings in.
