Picture yourself here, but perhaps a couple of hours later! I did one of my favorite early morning photo shoots while at Four Seasons Hualalai earlier this week, and this is one of the inviting pictures from that session. Though it's early morning, before breakfast, Hualalai's staff is already busy, getting the resort ready for another day of fun and relaxation for the guests. These lounge chairs have been arranged into a tidy curve facing the ocean. They are awaiting guests to come and occupy them for the day.
Five resorts in one ... that's my take-away from this inspection trip. What's remarkable about this resort is that the 189 guest rooms and 51 suites aren't found in one large, multi-winged building. They are arranged throughout the resort in two story buildings, some bordering the 18th green and the rest bordering four crescents arrayed along the beach. Each area has its own character.
Ocean Golf — the golf-lovers resort. If you can't get enough golf, you can sit on your lanai and watch the golfers coming up the 18th fairway and taking their final putts, all with a view of the blue Pacific Ocean beyond the fairway.
Beach Tree — the social center of Hualalai with the resort's main pool, 100 feet long, lined with lounges and cabanas. Here's the ideal spot to make new friends at the pool or at the bar
Palm Grove — the adult resort of Hualalai, with its adults-only Tranquility Pool and swim up bar.
Sea Shell — the family resort, with a kids pool where kids can be kids. And don't forget the complimentary Kids for All Seasons program for kids aged 5-12.
Kings Pond — the adventure resort, with a 1.8 million gallon aquarium carved out of natural lava rock. Stocked with 4,000 fish representing 98 species, you can snorkel from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m.
