Aloha,
welcome to paradise!
We're proud to offer you a quality
vacation experience at our home-away-from-home condo on the Kona Coast of the Big Island
of Hawaii.

your friendly hosts: clockwise from left,

Our family started
visiting the Hawaiian Islands more than 20 years ago and have been vacationing there every
year since. Starting out with timeshare vacations, we eventually thought wed like a
more stable piece of real estate we could really put our personal touch on and share with
others.

Hence, we looked at
condos for sale for several years before happily finding this one at Kona Pacific. We
really liked the solid structure (its a civil defense building, isnt that
comforting?), the floor plan, all the amenities and of course, the LOCATION. We did not
wish to be ON the ocean with storm waves worrying us or the constant need to
clean salt off the windows, but we wanted to be within walking distance of shore and other
activities, and this unit fit the bill perfectly for us.
We hope you find the
half block walk to the ocean, seaside cafes, luaus, and local shopping district as
accessible as we do.

Although all the major
Hawaiian Islands are special in their own way, we have found the Big Island to be our
absolute favorite. We love the almost always sunny side of Kona; and the diversity of
experiencing 13 of the 15 climate zones in the world within a days drive on the very
same island.

Kim &
Big John briefly lived here on Hawaii a few miles south of Kailua-Kona in coffee orchard
country. Living with the natives gave them an opportunity to experience the warm and
generous nature of local folks, and "off the beaten track" local foods and
hangouts. Scroll down to end of page for a list of their favorites (things NOT on
the normal tourist roster).
