I look forward to my next visit. A few steps from the lanai and you are on the beach watching yellow tang play in the waves crashing just off shore. If you are lucky, the green sea turtles munch on the moss growing on the lava rocks and play in the tide pools. A short distance up the beach from the resort are heritage sites; a beautiful place to sit and meditate, watch the sun go down, enjoy your morning coffee. This place is not only convenient and a short trolley ride to the heart of downtown Kailua Kona, it has easy access to one of the best snorkel beaches only 1/4 mile walk. You can park your car, relax, and forget what day and time it is. The sunsets on the horizon just outside the window are spectacular. We were fortunate to see a full blood moon set! The sounds of waves crashing is the music you hear as you drift off to sleep. The resort has a nice swimming pool , pickle ball, tennis courts, recreation area, grills so if you decide to never leave the resort and just relax you are at the right place. Just a short walk up the hill is a small shopping center with a grocery store, drug store, restaurants, coffee shop, and more. You will not want to leave!
