The water is calm and safe for children and the snorkeling is some of the best on any of the islands, other than on the rare stormy day. The Palm Villas is a private gated community of only 44 units, as compared to larger complexes on the resort and in the area with hundreds of units. We love the lava rock and waterfall surrounding the swimming pool. Although we don’t travel during peak holiday season, we’ve never seen it full and often have it all to ourselves. We love our view of the Historic Kalahuipua’a Lava Fields and Fish Ponds. You can go to a lot of places and see the ocean, but this view is incredibly unique. When you sit out on the lanai, sometimes you can hear the crashing of the waves. There is parking for one car or mid-size SUV in the garage and parking for one additional vehicle on site.
