Famous for the active Kilauea volcano, the Big Island of Hawaii is home to a list of fascinating anomalies.

Eleven different climate zones generate everything from lush rain forests to arid deserts, black sand beaches to snow-capped mountaintops. The Big Island is Hawaii’s biggest playground!  Check out these adventures:

  • Hike, ski or snowboard in the snow atop Mauna Kea, the world’s tallest mountain (measured from the ocean floor)
  • Hike or camp in  Waipio Valley, also called the “Valley of the Kings”
  • Explore Puukohola Heiau, the largest restored ancient Hawaiian religious temple
  • Got Surf?!

    What makes Nohonani 204 this HIDDEN GEM that everyone is talking about?

    Thursday, August 6th, 2009

    How is this for an answer? Nohonani unit 204 is very inexpensive, fabulous location, really pretty interior and great snorkeling right out in front of the condo!

    Rent some gear and snorkel to your heart’s content. Also, here is another tip about snorkeling. Head over to Black Rock, only about 10 minutes away. Snorkeling and scuba diving are especially good in this area as Black Rock forms a great reef wall. In addition, it is quite close by as it is located at the end of Kaanapali Beach!

    Great Golfing In Kapalua

    Friday, July 24th, 2009

    Here is a great suggestion. Check out Nohonani Condos and Resort, unit 204 which is technically located in an area called Honokawai. Where is this? It is located about 7 minutes South of Kapalua and about ten minutes North of Kaanapali. This condo is truly a hidden gem. When you see the location, you will hardly believe your eyes. Sit on your lanai and what you see is water, as clear as the finest of crystal and a big beautiful beach with white powdery sand. In addition, for those of you who love golf, there are two excellent courses 7 minutes North of the condo in Kapalua. Try the Kapalua Bay course. Zagat guide says” that many call this the friendliest course on the North end of Maui, with great new greens installed just in time for 2008’s inaugural Kapalua LPGA Classic.” You will find wonderful service and that it is enjoyable to players of all skill levels.
