TripAdvisor Top 10 U.S. Vacation Destinations -  May 2011 States that Travelers ranked Kailua Kona, Hawaii - a  respectable #6 with only 1 other city from Hawaii making the top 10 (lucky me - we have the #1 Rated Condo as our listing).

Here is an excerpt and a link to the article: 

Tripadvisor: Today the company released its third annual Travelers’ Choice lists by geography of the top travel destinations for 2011 based on millions of reviews offered on TripAdvisor. Below you will find the top ten across the world as well as top ranked destinations here in the United States. Unfortunately Boston doesn’t make either list, but our neighbors in NYC made both (NYC was the only US destination to make the top 10 world list). Destination award winners were determined based on a combination of travelers’ favorite places and the overall popularity of the destination.

2011 Travelers’ Choice U.S. Destinations:

1. New York City, New York

2. Honolulu, Hawaii

3. San Francisco, California

4. Las Vegas, Nevada

Additional Information

There’s a reason Trip Advisor calls this ocean front beauty the “Best condo in Kona.” It’s the best value in Kanaloa, for buyers who want it all. 

The first floor unit is privately oriented, with the ocean so near you can catch the spray, and situated just high enough to deliver panoramic coastal views. Elegant teak furnishing and koa cabinets capture the island feeling. Extra wide door ways, a wheelchair accessible, double shower and a recently refurbished lift to the front porch make it perfect not only for the disabled, but for elder guests, and for those who are just planning ahead. Four person indoor Jacuzzi adds a touch of luxury. Cable and wireless access fit a modern lifestyle. Three pools, outdoor Jacuzzis, golf course on two sides provide resort amenities. For outdoor enthusiasts, it’s a five minute walk to historic Keauhou Bay, with ocean fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and snorkeling for the whole family.
