Top neighborhoods in Kailua-Kona

Historic Kailua Village

Historic Kailua Village serves up a delicious slice of Hawaiian royal history along Kailua Bay's turquoise waters. Stroll the oceanfront Alii Drive to discover cultural treasures like Hulihee Palace and the ancient coral stone walls of Mokuaikaua Church. Snorkelers splash in the calm, clear bay while shoppers hunt for treasures at the Kona Farmers Market and local artisan galleries. Waterfront restaurants dish up everything from casual plate lunches to upscale Pacific Rim fusion as the sun dips into the ocean. Most attractions sit within easy walking distance along flat Alii Drive. While public transit is limited, rental cars give you freedom to explore beyond this charming historic district.

Holualoa Village

This artsy mountain village feels like stepping back in time, with century-old wooden storefronts housing galleries along a single main street. Local artists display koa wood sculptures and vibrant island paintings in family-run studios. Nearby coffee farms cascade down volcanic slopes, offering tours that reveal the bean-to-cup process and complimentary tastings. Most galleries and cafes close by 4 PM, so plan morning visits for the best experience. Vacation rentals and B&Bs in converted plantation homes make for charming stays. A rental car is essential for exploring the winding roads and reaching beaches just 15 minutes downhill in Kailua-Kona.

Kahaluu-Keauhou

Snorkel with rainbow-colored fish at Kahaluu Beach Park or discover ancient Hawaiian history at sacred Keauhou Bay, where King Kamehameha III was born. The striking black lava coastline features remarkable archaeological sites including heiau temples and the Keauhou Holua Slide, an impressive ancient sledding course carved into volcanic rock. Resort restaurants serve fresh seafood while beachside food trucks offer tasty local plate lunches. Most visitors stay in oceanfront resorts or condo rentals that blend naturally with the lava rock landscape. A rental car is essential for exploring beyond the resort areas.

Kahaluu Bay

Kahaluu Bay offers world-class snorkeling in crystal-clear waters just steps from the sand. Tropical fish dart through the protected reef while the historic Kuemanu Heiau temple ruins provide cultural context above the shore. The "Little Blue Church" creates a perfect photo opportunity against dramatic black lava rock formations. Pack water shoes and reef-safe sunscreen for a day exploring underwater wonders. Vacation rentals and condos with ocean views make up most accommodations in this laid-back area. Though dining options are limited at the bay itself, nearby Kailua-Kona offers plenty of Hawaiian-fusion restaurants just a short drive away. Arrive early or late afternoon to avoid peak crowds.

"Pacific 19 was a great place to stay it had everything we needed. It was close to restaurants and stores. It had bikes to use if wanted to. The room was spacious the only thing that bothered us was the painting near the elevator. The paint had a strong smell."

Kona Coast Resort

8/10 Good
"My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Kona Coast...We stayed for 4 nights and would probably stay again, especially since units are to be renovated soon. Our 1 bedroom unit was spacious and comfortable once the AC kicked in. We enjoyed the lanai overlooking the golf course with distant ocean view. The bed was comfortable. We felt it was a good value. The one small critique/suggestion I have is that each unit provide basic kitchen staples, like salt, pepper, and cooking oil so that does not need to be purchased and wasted between each guest and the check in agent wasn't very friendly. Otherwise, very nice stay indeed!"

"This property was wonderful! Clean and best of both worlds- a hotel that had everything we needed (all we had to do was ask if we needed fresh towels or coffee, etc.) but set up like a little condo with living room, lanai, kitchen, and two bedrooms. It even had a laundry machine that was very convenient. Would gladly stay again!"

"Mango and Sunset sits on an active coffee farm and the property is stunning. We are already looking forward to our next stay. Kriss and Gene are warm and lovely hosts. As someone who has allergies one of the reasons I booked our accommodations at this unforgettable bread and breakfast was the hypoallergenic bedding and hardwood floors. The breakfast menu is thougtfully planned and scrumptious! Bonus: beautiful roosters and chickens as well as cute, friendly kitties who roam the property!"
