Kona Village / Walker Warner
Nestled on the sacred lands of Kaʻūpūlehu on The Big Island of Hawaii, Kona Village rises from the remnants of a beloved hideaway after over a decade of stillness. Spanning 81 acres of stunning geological landscape, the design of the new resort was guided by a pledge to be as minimally disruptive to the land as possible. Working to maintain the structural integrity of the site and its existing archaeological landmarks, Greg Warner and Mike McCabe of Walker Warner set out to respectfully restore the relaxed Pacific Island style that epitomized the original property while elevating it with modern touches and sustainable innovations. Kona Village now offers 150 traditional guest hale, the new Asaya Spa, and five restaurants and bars, including the original resort's beloved Shipwreck and Talk Story bars.
