The Kamuela area of the Big Island has been inhabited for tens of thousands of years. Now known for its opulent resorts, luxurious spas, dramatic golf courses, historic former cattle farms and breathtaking nature reserves, Kamuela is a largely unspoiled gem. Mauna Kea Resort Golf Course is the top choice for going green. Other relaxing activities include checking into Spa Without Walls and Mauna Lani Spa, or stretching out on Hapuna Beach. A hired car is the best way to explore Kamuela's many attractions.
