Week in Paradise

Overview

Quote:

Friendliness of the staff. Eugene at the concierge arranged to have a couples massage confirmed in our unit the next morning of our arrival. This was great after traveling 15 hours! Checking in at the airport was great for us - once we got our car, we were free to enjoy the island as we traveled up to the north end of the island, which is where our timeshare was located.

Quick Tips:

We received MANY coupons, which we put to good use!

Gaylord's at Kilohana

Restaurant | "Gaylord's @ the Kilohana Plantation"

Quote:

Our meal was $35 per person, excluding the blue Hawaii drink, and we got a slice of chocolate decadence to carry back with us. The restaurant's waiter and staff were very nice and knowledgable of the menu. The environment was very relaxed and romantic. We have decided to make this restaurant a tradition for the last night before we leave the island on future trips. Our travel is 15 hours, so we do want our last light to be quite so busy.

Free Day of Bumming Around

Story/Tip

Mid-week, we took the map, packed some fresh fruit and a bottle of wine, and traveled to the beaches. None were crowded, and it was easy to find one with few people on it. We sat and enjoyed the beauty of nature - that was serene to us since we live very busy lives.
