Our February Kauai Trip

* Keoke's Paradise Restaurant and Bar offers a tiki torch and candlelight setting at night.

* Gaylord's offers a great Sunday brunch. They have plantation carriages and beautiful clydesdales. There is a candlelight setting at night.

* The Hyatt, next door, offers the Drums of Paradise Luau twice weekly. It isn't our favorite luau, but we like that it's within walking distance. The food is good and mixed drinks are included in the price of admission.

* The Hyatt- Tidepools restaurant is our favorite romantic restaurant.

* There's a fruit stand across from Sea Sport Divers. We buy star fruit and papaya when we visit.

* Visit the Waimea Plantation Kauai Hotel for lunch and walk the grounds. It's like stepping back into time.

Best Way To Get Around:

The rooms that we have occupied over the past 7 years have always been in good condition and well maintained. It's always a pleasure to return and see that the units have been maintained.

The pool area is very relaxing and the Embassy pool bar is one of our favorites.

There are buildings that surround the pool area, which generally you would think would be less appealing because you don't have a view of the ocean, but on a windy day, you're grateful that you're protected by the buildings. It's a tropical setting, and when you're there, it's a beautiful pool setting.
