Kailua-Kona
For guests staying in Kailua-Kona hotels, nestled at the bottom of Hualalai Volcano, this area is a bustling seaside town where balmy weather conditions and crystalline waters make it optimal for almost any ocean adventure. Kailua-Kona was once home to Hawaii’s greatest kings and today this city center is the perfect spot for those who seek area attractions that resonate with rich tradition and history, from petroglyphs and battlefields to sanctuaries and ancient temples.
Waikoloa
For guests staying in Kohala Coast or Waikoloa Resorts, on the sunny north east of the Big Island, this is home to beautiful Waikoloa, a heavenly oasis amidst black lava rock fields. This coast sports a number of historic attractions, like ancient petroglyph fields and temples, and with little rainfall it is perfect for any water adventure. Near the coast of North Kohala, the landscape becomes covered with rainforest canopies and pastoral lands that stretch to the horizon.
Keauhou Bay
For guests staying near Keauhou Bay, on the southern edge of Kailua-Kona, this area is the birthplace of King Kamehameha III. Well known for its rugged sea caves and pristine ocean conditions, this protected bay is home to the sacred stone that is said to have revived a stillborn King, as well as an ancient warriors burial ground from a fierce battle in 1819. Explore Keauhou Bay's vast history and underwater paradise and every corner of its breathtaking landscape.
Hilo
For guests staying in Historic Hilo Town, on the east side of the Big Island, this is home to beautiful Hilo Bay, bustling farmers markets, original Hawaii food favorites, and candy factories. With a consistently wet rainforest climate, the area is filled with dramatic waterfalls and hiking trails that are ripe for exploration. Once known for its production of sugar cane, a fascinating variety of Western, Asian, Hawaiian, and Polynesian influences still enrich the town.
Hapuna Beach
For guests staying at the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel or Mauna Kea Hotel, on the northwest Kohala Coast on the Big Island, the area offers access to one of the finest white sand beaches on the island. With its crystal blue water and amazing views from shore to sunset, it makes it perfect year round for sky gazing, sunset watching or any ocean activity like beach snorkeling and body boarding.
