About Kona
  • Kona is the sunny west coast of the Big Island, making it the popular destination of tourists instead of the rainier Hilo side (see our weather data page).
     
  • In addition to new housing being built in existing Kona residential areas, especially Kailua-Kona, in the wake of the post 1950s tourism economy boom, recent years have seen new luxury master-planned communities like HualalaiKukio & Kohanaiki created as well.

Kona subdivisions include:
  • Alii Point - Oceanfront community. 19 lots of 4.6K Sq Ft - 1 acre with 2 - 5BR, 1 & 2-story ho
