1. The private beach. You won’t find miles upon miles of sand and big waves at this destination. Instead, Kona Kai is home to the Kona Kai Marina, which allows for a quiet, private beach that oversees the beautiful water and vessels (you may even see a boat belonging to a celebrity or two docked there). Guests are invited to reserve an on-sand cabana for the ultimate relaxation destination while kiddos can play in the sand without being overwhelmed by a traditional busy beach scene. Though the water isn’t accessible for swimming (there is a great pool and hot tub a few feet away), the resort can arrange plenty of water-sport rentals.
