White Sands Beach Estates is a highly desirable and popular neighborhood offering a quintessential island lifestyle, the properties on the community’s west side as close as 120 yards from the Pacific Ocean. Strategically located between the scenic Alii Drive and the convenient Highway 11, these 82 homes provide an ideal blend of tranquility and accessibility.
From ancient Hawaiian settlements, evidenced by the still preserved fishponds, petroglyphs, and heiaus, to the the rise of
Kamehameha I who made Kailua-Kona his capital, this district has played a large role in the Islands’ history. Starting in the late 1800s, the area saw the rise of coffee plantations, followed by the post-WWII tourism boom that shaped the Kona we know today. Development has remained more measured compared to Oahu, though, better preserving the character of this place.
