This is the broken resort next to us - the Kona Lagoon.
It's a 454 room resort that closed in 1988 and never reopened.

This is building number 8 of the Keauhou Kona Surf & Racquet Club.
We are the unit on the far left, top floor.

This is the where we stayed.  It gets high marks
for the price, the dinner and quality.

Our hotel () had a hot spring fed bath. After a day of walking around, it
was very relaxing. This pictures was a bit challenging - every time
I walked in the lens fogged up, so I had to wait, rush in and just snap.

This is my room in the Turtle Inn Nikko. The floors are tatami - rice mats. That box
in the corner is a kerosene heater - there is no central heating.

I'm not sure how much longer this hotel will be standing.  Some of the hotel is in great
shape but other areas (exposed to the elements) are starting to detoriate.

You can see the decayed boardwalk and the fuel tanks.  The local caretakers
have built a walk way around the colapsed section to give access to some of the other
buildings and the lake behind.
