About Ho'ola Spa at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa
Set atop an ancient lava flow along the southern shores of Keauhou Bay on 22 acres of the Big Island's Kona Coast, the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa is nestled at the edge of the tranquil bay, a popular gathering spot for acrobatic manta rays, the flat, shark-related but harmless fish. The 521-room resort celebrates the island's rich culture with a host of entertaining events such as hula dancing, fireside oleo (Hawaiian storytelling), and a weekly luau and dinner show.
Spa-goers at the resort's Ho'ola Spa can unwind with Hawaiian-inspired treatments performed indoors or on an oceanfront lanai. Romantic, starlit dinners along the water, couple's custom spa services, and an on-site wedding chapel make this resort a romantic getaway retreat, while amenities like a multi-level swimming pool and water slide complex cater to families.

The on-site fitness center features Nautilus and cardio equipment, individual TVs, and panoramic ocean views. Guests can play basketball, sand volleyball, or tennis on the property's courts. The resort's Manta Ray Super Pool & Slide is a multilevel aquatic playground for both adults and children, with a freshwater pool, kids' sand-bottom area, waterfalls, grottos, bridges, whirlpools, and a 200-foot-long lava tube waterslide.
One of the island's main attractions is its manta rays, which guests can observe on land from various points on the resort's property or in the water while scuba diving. Complimentary shuttles transfer guests to the beach—the concierge is on hand to help arrange ocean excursions such as scuba diving, kayaking, deep-sea fishing, and snorkeling—and famous attractions like the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park are a short drive away. Additional options in the surrounding area include shopping, horseback riding, hiking, and golf.
