Although Oahu, Hawaii vacation home rentals are probably the most popular places to stay when visiting Hawaii, the Big Island has the most area to cover and the most variety of experiences of all the islands. The Big Island is divided up into different regions by the three volcanoes that run down the middle of the island. The western side of the island is called the Kona side of the island, and is where Kona, Hawaii vacation rental homes are located.
Three Hundred Days of Sunshine
Since Kona Hawaii vacation rental homes and condos are located on the lee side of the island, there is rarely rain on that side of the island, making it the perfect place for sun seekers since it gets sun three hundred of the three hundred sixty-five days per year.
Choosing Kona vacation rental homes depends on what sights the visitor wants to be close to so that travel is reduced and time is saved when navigating the island and activities. North Kona vacation rental homes are near the Kailua Bay, which has shallow water which is ideal for snorkeling. There is also a cute but busy village of Kailua-Kona, which has wonderful places to dine and shop and is located just to the west of the Hualalai Volcano, which is another scenic attraction for visitors to see by driving up its slopes, offering scenic views of the beaches below it.
South Kona vacation rental homes are also near some excellent snorkeling waters. In addition to snorkeling, however, there is diving that is hard to match anywhere in the world. The waters are usually so clear that a diver can have visibility upwards of eighty feet so that the underwater wildlife might be seen with clarity. There are also many historic sights to see in South Kona, such as the Pu 'uhonua O Honaunau National Park and also the place where Captain Cook was killed. In addition, there is the famous Kona coffee that is grown on the southern slopes of the Hualalai Volcano.
The Kona vacation rental homes vary in pricing depending on the location, size and amenities offered with the home. On the lower end, there are single family homes that can be rented for as low as one hundred sixty dollars per day. On the upper end, there are four thousand plus square foot homes that sleep up to ten people and run around two thousand dollars per night.
