Fodor's Expert Review Four Seasons Resort Hualalai

72-100 Kaupulehu Dr., Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, 96745, USA Fodor's Choice

Beautiful views everywhere, polished wood floors, custom furnishings and linens, and fine Hawaiian artwork make this oceanfront resort a peaceful, opulent retreat. Freestanding bungalows are large and luxurious, with spacious travertine and marble bathrooms as well as private outdoor showers. One of the five pools, King's Pond, is replete with thousands of tropical fish and a spotted eagle ray that guests have the opportunity to feed daily. The seashell infinity pool, family-friendly and surrounded by cabanas and palm trees, has a clear view to the ocean beyond. The on-site Hawaiian Cultural Center honors the property's spiritual heritage and sense of place, and the sports club and spa offer top-rate health and fitness options. The resort's on-site restaurants (ULU, Beach Tree) are world-class. Hualalai's golf course has hosted the PGA Tour Champions Tour and the Senior PGA Tournament of Champions. The resort is super kid-friendly, with a great activities and events program for all ages.
