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 less 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."
The rising of Makaliʻi (the constellation Pleiades) in the east at sunset marks the beginning of the Hawaiian new year, known as Makahiki. Makahiki will last until late January or February. It is a time set aside for tribute, harvest, sport, and play. The word makahiki can refer to a time of celebration, and the roughly four-month period of Makahiki was historically a time of peace and plenty, relaxation and games, and for harvest. It was also a time to honor the god Lono, one of the four major gods recognized not only here in Hawaiʻi, but throughout the Pacific. His domain includes fertility, agriculture, and peace. During Makahiki, the qualities of Lono were celebrated by feasting, competing in sports and games, hula, and storytelling. Makahiki also signifies a time of rest and rejuvenation for both the land and the people.
