The
Kohala Coast is a place of strong contrasts. From the
tiny town of Hawi,
birthplace
of Kamehameha the Great in the North, to Waikoloa Resort
and Hualalai Resort in the South. Driving along the coastline,
sheer cliffs to seaward and rolling hills to landward,
one passes ancient temples of the Hawaiian Religion, (Heiau)
restored to their pre-monarchy states.
Further
on, the bright green of World Class Golf Courses abuts
the barren lava flows, and palm trees stand between black
rock and white sand beaches. Like islands in a sea of lava,
the pale shapes of architect-designed condominiums and
exclusive resorts rise from the broad wastes.
As you near the Waikoloa Resort, you see the
broad throughfare lined with statuesque palms, leading
toward the sea, and like a kingdom unto itself, you will
find everything necessary for your
comfort
and enjoyment here, from shopping to beaches and pools,
galleries and
fine restaurants. Whether you are staying in a Hotel, a
timeshare, or own your own condominium in Waikoloa Resort,
everything you will need is supplied in abundance.
Kohala's selection of fine hotels offers a
great variety of atmospheres, for dining and dancing, or
if you want to "get away from it all" just relaxing and
enjoying the sunny beach.
Each day in Kohala is one of new discoveries and excitement. Play a round
of golf, go kayaking and sailboarding, try swimming with the dolphins,
or take a snorkeling and scubadiving adventure. Learn to Hula, or weave
Hawaiian mats...above all, take your time, for here you have all the time
in the world!
In the evening, enjoy the International Cuisines
of the many fine restaurants at Waikoloa Resort, where
world-class chefs prepare delicious repasts that will leave
your tastebuds tingling with pleasure!
After dinner, take a quiet stroll through
the King's Shops, to visit Art Galleries and exclusive
stores, or an equally quiet and peaceful walk in the moonlight,
barefoot along sands white as powdered sugar before turning
in for a restful night's sleep.
