Located on the upland slopes, Holualoa is a well-kept town of resident artists and shops. Spend some time exploring the many art specialty shops, galleries and studios. Look for Holualoa Gallery, the converted coffee mill that's now home to the Kona Art Center. Try a homemade sticky bun and a steaming cup of Kona coffee at the Holuakoa Cafe. Holualoa is the heart of Kona's coffee country and is dotted with small family-operated farms. 5 mi/8 km southeast of Kailua-Kona.
