Big Island resorts
Hi,
We've visited Kaanapali and loved it. We're doing Wailea this fall. We want to see the Big Island next summer for an anniversary trip. I'm looking for some resort recommendations around the Kohala Coast. I'm looking for great pool and beach facilities primarily.
Thanks.

then you would want to check out the Hilton Waikoloa Village..my son still says that it was the best hotel he had ever stayed at as a child, bar none. Now the Four Seasons was not ready when we were there..I don't know how it would compare as a family destination?

I wouldn't recommend the Hilton for a honeymoon if you are a beach person. The pool is amazing and I would take my kids, but not without them. My vote is Mauna Kea, and have a sunset dinner at the Canoe Club at the Mauna Lani! Whereever, you will love the BI!

I meant anniversary in your case. I should mention the pool at the Mauna Kea is very plain. With the spectacular beach, I never even considered visiting the pool (nor did my kids, who had previously preferred pools!!), but if you're a pool person, something to consider....

Although the beach is rocky at the hIlton Waikoloa, I actually found it VERY romantic watching the waves crash against the rocks during the day, and also at night when it was dark and you could just hear the surf pounding. AHHHHHHHHHH. They have those covered cabanas out at what they call Buddha Point, as well as double hammocks. PERFECT for watching the sunset, and then snuggling up and listening to the waves and surf. The HIlton then has the benefits of the great pools. Also, a five minute walk along a trail gets you to the beach at Waikoloa Outrigger, which is a very pretty beach with some decent, not great snorkeling.
