"Set on the sunny Kohala Coast, this resort’s 333 guest rooms (including 36 suites) feature hardwood floors, natural fabrics, and private lanais with mountain or ocean views, and the property foregrounds cultural learning through its Hale ʻI’ike (house of knowledge) and regular ukelele jams. Families can join guided petroglyph hikes at the nearby Puakō Petroglyph Archaeological Preserve or snorkel and deep-sea fish; golf enthusiasts have access to world-class North and South courses, while dining ranges from beachfront CanoeHouse with Japanese-inspired dishes to casual poke and fish tacos at the Surf Shack." - Jill K.
