Culinary delights and laid-back lounging

Oh-so-much culture (and adventure!)
Beyond luxurious accommodations and gourmet dining, OUTRIGGER Kona Resort & Spa is a gateway to adventure. The resort’s oceanfront lagoon-style pool, featuring a 200-foot waterslide, is perfect for families and guests of all ages. Additionally, the Kona Coast is famous for its majestic manta rays, which come to feed just off the resort’s shores. From the property, you can observe these incredible creatures, or, for a more immersive experience, you can embark on a night snorkeling tour to swim alongside them—an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
Hawaiian culture is at the heart of the resort experience. A range of on-site activities invite guests to learn and participate in traditional practices. You can take part in lei-making, hula lessons, or ukulele classes, all while immersing yourself in the island’s aloha spirit. The resort also offers a 90-minute cultural tour, highlighting the rich history of Keauhou Bay, including a visit to the birthplace of King Kamehameha III.
The Feast & Fire Luau, hosted at the resort, is another highlight of the cultural experience, featuring traditional Hawaiian food, music, and dance. It’s a vibrant celebration that brings Hawaii’s unique heritage to life.
