The Kohala Coast is home to excellent restaurants, from casual poke shops to fine dining with sunset views. Popular spots like Merriman’s, Roy’s Waikoloa, and Tommy Bahama fill up fast — book your tables as soon as your travel dates are set.
Bring lightweight clothing, swimwear, sturdy walking shoes, and a light jacket for cooler nights. Don’t forget reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses, and a reusable water bottle. If you’re planning high-altitude excursions, add warm layers.
It’s tempting to pack every day with activities, but some of the best moments happen right at Hale Akaʻula — sipping coffee on the lanai, watching sunsets, or stargazing from your private yard. Schedule downtime to truly enjoy the home.
