Recent Sheraton Keauhou Bay Review: "This resort is not in downtown Kona so you will have to drive there. However, it is in a convenient location just south of the city, surrounded by other resorts, and close to a nice strip mall with restaurants and stores. We stayed in an ocean front room and thought it was well worth the extra cost. The grounds and room were nice and well kept and the  staff was pleasant. There happened to be a lot of children there at the same time we were so the pool was a bit hectic. Also, it seems as though some locals come with their families to enjoy the pool and waterslide. Given that there is no near by beach, the pool is your only option for swimming and it is shallow and can be busy. Other than that a good and clean hotel with great views."

    Keauhou is Kailua-Kona’s more tranquil cousin located to its south. Manta rays and the occasional dolphin swim by its languid shores. Nearby, Kealakekua Bay is home to a marine preserve where coral and fish thrive. The bay is popular with snorkelers, divers, and kayakers. Capt. James Cook, the first European to reach present-day Hawaii, was killed during a skirmish in this bay in 1779.
