Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection
An amazing location and in my mind the most beautiful hotel in the world. Been going there since the 70s. The staff and food isnt quite up to what ths hotel deserves, but still good, i understand the limited pool of workers to draw from. But just outstanding!!

Castle Hali'i Kai at Waikoloa
Kitchen had all the tools and the grill had propane. All the literature was easy to understand and posted in plain view. The rooms were clean, bathrooms were clean - it was a beautiful home away from home. Parking was easy and the staff were so friendly.
