| Located on Hawai'i's Big Island along the sunny Kohala Coast at the resort enclave of Hualalai is Kona Village Resort, a Hawaiian hideaway of individual thatched-roofed hale (bungalows) offering families, honeymooners, and adventurers alike time with one another and time for individual exploration, relaxation and discovery.
Nestled along 82 acres of lush lagoons, sandy beaches and lava landscapes at the site of an ancient Hawaiian fishing village, each hale offers spacious floor plans and thoughtful furnishings. Included among many amenities with every hale are opportunities to explore Hawaiian history, culture and enjoy water sports such as complimentary surfboards, snorkeling or kayaking in the warm, pristine waters of Kahuwai Bay. Kona Village Ocean Adventures offers optional SCUBA dives and certification, scooter snorkels or dives on fun dive propulsion vehicles, deep sea fishing charters, thrilling Ribcraft boat excursions for offshore snorkeling, sightseeing, nighttime manta ray viewing in the bay and more.
Beyond the glittering blue water of the bay, a soothing open-air massage or tennis lesson is an option for adults while children find their own diversion via the resorts complimentary Hawaiian-themed "Na Keiki (children) in Paradise" program offered daily (except May and September).
Room rates include three island-inspired meals daily, served oceanfront and also encompass one of the best aha'aina (lu'au) on the island, fresh flower lei and tropical punch arrival greeting, fitness center and tennis court use, and two freshwater swimming pools. In-room, 100 percent Kona Coffee and refrigerated beverages are replenished daily.
Hammocks beckon beneath the shade of towering coconut trees. Clear ocean waters reawaken every sense and create a feeling of joy and wonder. A coconut outside the door indicates "do not disturb." Kona Village Resort is unplugged, with no telephones, televisions or radios to interrupt the keen sense of place. It is unpretentious, with a caring staff that truly "lives Aloha." And it is unmatched, having been rated among Hawaii's top 25 best hotels by Travel+Leisure Magazine, listed on Conde Nast Traveler's "World's Best Places to Stay" and "Top 20 Hawaii Resorts" and listed by Forbes.com among the top ten luxury family resorts in the U. S.
For the romantic, for families wanting to reconnect, for the adventurous, for those seeking solitude, this is Hawai'i, and most certainly where you want to be.
