Kona Hills Estates and Hualalai Vistas Properties For Sale

Kona Hills Estates is a gated community located on the slopes of Hualālai Mountain, just south of the Kona International Airport. The neighborhood is intimate, with fewer than 50 custom-designed homes, each situated on a one-acre parcel. There are outstanding views of the coastline, and its elevation is ideal for enjoying Kona’s sunny weather and island breezes.

Your neighborhood sits on the slopes of Hualālai, one of five major volcanoes that created this Island of Hawaiʻi. It has not erupted since 1800, but is still considered "active."

Hula fans won’t want to miss the activities and excitement generated by the annual Merrie Monarch Hula Festival, scheduled for April 5 to 11 in Hilo at the Afook Chinen Civic Auditorium and surrounding area. The central purpose of the Festival is the perpetuation, preservation, and promotion of the art of hula and the Hawaiian culture. Tickets for the hula competition are very limited, so it’s doubtful you can purchase any now. However, the competition can be viewed live Thursday, April 9 through Saturday, April 11, on local channel K5. Hilo is a hotbed of arts and crafts fairs during the festival, great for supporting Hawai`i’s artisans. The fairs take place at the auditorium and Butler Building, Wednesday, April 8 to Friday, April 10, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, April 11, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free. Find more information at merriemonarch.com. The Hawaiʻi Island Chamber of Commerce began the festival in 1963, and the private Merrie Monarch Festival community organization took on the responsibilities of running the event five years later.
