Kailua-Kona,
famed for it's International Billfish Tournament every
Summer, the Ironman Triathlon in the Fall, and
it's sunny beaches and warm, clear waters all the year
around, is uniquely Hawaiian, steeped in a rich history
and tradition from Monarchy and Whaling Days to today.
It's mild climate and laid-back pace of living is a
joy to experience. At the same time, the town of Kailua-Kona
offers much in the way of entertainment. Whether you
go in for athletics, luaus or floor shows, you will
find it all here in Kona.
Visit the Hulihe'e Palace while strolling along
Alii Drive, and see how the Hawaiian Royalty lived. Wander
through the myriad stores and shops and find treasures
and trinkets galore, from art to nuts.
Take
a fishing trip out to troll for Marlin or Ahi (yellow fin
tuna) and taste the melt-in-your-mouth goodness of the
freshest delicacies the Pacific has to offer. Or snorkel
and scuba dive among the most beautiful and exotic creatures
of the deep.
Dine
and Dance the balmy night away at 4-star hotels like the
Royal Kona Resort. Relax at restaurants and coffee bars
serving the most delectable of Big Island Grown Coffees,
while you listen to the waves crashing onto the rocky shore.
And then come aboard a sunset cruise and watch the sun
go down in a blaze of gorgeous colors from the gentle rocking
of the ocean swells.
As
you take the scenic drive South along Alii Drive, passing
beach after pristine beach, you will eventually arrive
at Keauhou, a resort community where the warm sun and soft
breezes are only surpassed by the sunset views.
Keauhou is home to many private, gated residential
communities, with amenities second to none. There is also
your choice of hotels, Keauhou Beach and Kona Surf, and
resort condominiums like Keauhou Surf and Racquet Club
to name just a few, as well as shopping and fine dining
just minutes away, at the Keauhou Shopping Center.
