The Big Island is filled with unspoiled nature. Every direction you go you will be rewarded with huge, dramatic views. The island is still a farming island, with vast stretches of undeveloped raw land. It is quiet and peaceful during the day, dark and silent at night. Visitors who are in search of solitude and nature will absolutely fall in love.

Kona is the beloved sunny side of the Big Island. Captain Cook is an area south of Kona away from the hustle and bustle of town. This beloved area encompasses the protected agricultural land that sweeps down Napo’opo’o Road through the green foothills of Mauna Loa to the stunning Kealakekua Bay Historical Reserve, along the undeveloped coastline. Here lies beautiful land and the perfect South Kona microclimate, with abundant sun and gentle Kona breezes, and the state’s most pristine snorkeling water. Lovely Manini and Ke’ei beaches, Two Step, the Captain Cook monument, Pu’uhonua O’ Honaunau and Honaunau Bay are all close by.

Luana Inn sits at the heart of this special place. The property is about three hundred feet above sea level, and offers a panoramic ocean and sky view, with green mountains rising gently behind. We are perfectly situated for guests who want to fully experience this spectacular area as well as explore the entire Big Island.
