| Kailua means 'waterhole' in Hawaiian. There are two cities on the Hawaiian islands called 'Kailua'. The biggest Kailua is on the windward side of O'ahu, while the smaller lies on the leeward side of the Big Island. Because in the hawaiian language, 'leeward' means 'kona', Kailua on the Big Island is also referred to as 'Kailua-Kona'.
