Field notes
Fly to Kona (KOA)
Kona International Airport (KOA) is just a 15-minute drive south of the resort. Car rentals are recommended if you plan to drive the Saddle Road or visit Volcanoes National Park, though resort transfers are available.
King's Pond Snorkeling & Tee Times
Plan your golf tee times and book spa treatments well in advance, especially during school holidays. Snorkeling gear is provided complimentary at King's Pond; make sure to check the daily feeding times to watch the eagle ray up close.
Rocky Beach Entry & Lively Atmosphere
The beach is pristine for walking, but a shelf of volcanic rock sits right at the waterline, making wading or swimming directly into the ocean difficult in many spots. The property is sprawling and highly family-oriented, so the main pool areas can be busy with children; couples should opt for the adult-only Palm Grove pool for quiet relaxation.
