Hale Ke'ei Lani looks out over Kealakekua ('Pathway of the Gods') Bay, a marine preserve renowned for its exotic tropical fish, splendid corals, turtles, and other aquatic wildlife. Only a short drive away the bay offers some of Hawaii's best snorkeling, kayaking, and whale watching, plus the opportunity to swim and interact with the resident pod of spinner dolphins. Also nearby is the City of Refuge National Park - the most revered of old Hawaii's religious sites, while Volcano National Park lies only one hour's drive south. The house is located in the district of South Kona, revered by the ancient Hawaiians as the source of their spiritual and physical sustenance. It was here that they enjoyed the best fishing, farming and hunting, and perhaps the best climate in all of Hawaii. While in close proximity to restaurants, markets, and other amenities, and only 14 miles from the town of Kailua-Kona, South Kona has the feel of a tropical rural paradise.
