Outrigger Kona Resort and Spa

Kailua-Kona is an unincorporated community and, under the name Kailua, a census-designated place (CDP) in Hawaii County, Hawaii, United States. It is most commonly referred to simply as Kona, but also as Kona Town, and occasionally as Kailua, thus its less frequent use. Kailua-Kona is the second-largest settlement on the island of Hawaii and the largest on the island's west side, where it is the center of commerce and the tourist industry. Kailua-Kona is served by Kona International Airport, just to the north in the adjacent CDP of Kaiminani. The population was 19,713 at the 2020 census, up from 11,975 at the 2010 census.

As soon as you arrive in Kailua-Kona, you'll be greeted by the crystal-clear waters of the Pacific Ocean and the warm, tropical climate that Hawaii is known for. The town itself is a charming mix of old and new, with historic buildings and modern amenities coexisting seamlessly.

One of the biggest draws of Kailua-Kona is its incredible coastline, which is dotted with pristine beaches and secluded coves. From the black sand beach at Punaluu to the white sand shores of Hapuna Beach, there's a stretch of sand for every type of beachgoer.
