Property Amenities
This resort on the Big Island’s west coast, just 10 minutes north of Kona airport, has a spa and white-sand beaches.
This collection of 36 two-story bungalows is frequented by business travelers, celebrating couples, and relaxing families. Open-air dining and Polynesian-style decor throughout emphasize the backdrop of black-lava rock against white-sand beaches. Although recreational and cultural offerings abound, the pace is unhurried and the setting feels remote.
Amenity highlights: Jack Nicklaus designed the oceanfront golf course, which is built on black-lava rock. A cultural center with artists-in-residence offers courses for all ages, from traditional Hawaiian crafts, and dance, to music. Five swimming pools spread across the oceanfront include three for scuba and snorkeling with tropical fish, and others for lap swimming and adults. Fitness facilities include a rock-climbing wall and eight tennis courts. The spa, with 18 treatment rooms, also has eucalyptus steam, dry sauna, and a cold plunge.

Guests are welcomed upon check-in with a cool towel, fresh juice, and a fragrant fresh flower lei at the reception desk, and fruit, nuts, and fudge in their room. A complimentary, self-service business center accessible 24 hours includes three computers with Internet access and a copier, as well as CDs and videos to borrow. Complimentary self-service laundry facilities, with detergent, are on-site.
