We are taking a big family trip for my mom's 60th. We are trying to pick the best reasort for everyone-hard to do!
We will have all ages with us- kids ages of 2,3, 7 and 18 plus all the "big" people.
Any suggestions would be really appreciated. We want something special and think that either one of these hotels would fit the bill!

OK, I'll play. I vote for the George Washington and I don't even have a clue what state you're talking about.
Wanna give us a hint?

With all those kids, I think you're going to want the GW (Grand Wailea) If you're staying at the Four Seasons and the kids get a look at the Grand Wailea's pool complex, you'll never hear the end of it! GW is louder, more crowded, and not as upscale as the Four Seasons, but is better for familes, IMHO. The pool area is second to none.
However, the Four Seasons is right next door, has some terrific restaurants, and they share the same fantastic beach.
Would you consider putting the guest of honor at the 4 Seasons, and the families at the GW? Might be more trouble than its worth, but if everyones in good health, its only a 10 minute walk along the beach, I think. If your mother would appreciate the elegance of the 4 seasons, its an option. On the flip side, the Grand Wailea has great spa facilities.
The 4 Seasons does have a pretty impressive game room for the kids, but if you're in Hawaii, you don't want them spending all day in there.

My mom stayed with us at the Grand Wailea a few Christmases ago, and loved it. Have a great trip!

I'm with Bikom - the GW fits the bill for your group. The pools will be a big deal for your kids and there is plenty to do for the adults. Have a great time! Aloooooha.

Another vote for GW. The kids will love the pool (and so will the overgrown kids).

so sorry! Referring to Maui...

Sorry. I guess if I'd been to Maui, maybe I'd have known what GW was, but there are about a million Four Seasons, so I just wasn't getting there with this one.

That's alright. My mistake.
