Kona Village lies within the site of an ancient Hawaiian fishing village on 82 private acres at Kahuwai Bay along the Big Island’s Kohala Coast. Established in 1965, the resort is home to 125 thatched-roof bungalows called hale (ha-lay). Each is reflective of Polynesian architectural styles. Nestled around lush lagoons and pristine white and black sand beaches, guests enjoy vacation fun from water sports (snorkeling, diving, kayaking, deep sea fishing and more) to cultural and historical exploration within resort grounds.
