We made a mistake in booking and tried to fix it the day of. Both Expedia and the hotel came through and gave us a refund. It was very helpful. Also the hotel is very environmentally conscious and have a lot of neat ideas.

Food was not great…. Every restaurant has the same menu…. Food wasn’t worth the trip or the price…. But the staff and surroundings were fab…. Went to the Canoe House for great food ( Mauna Lani)

We discovered this serene little beach last month. After turning off the highway there is a 2 mile drive over rocky unpaved terrain, but if you take it slow any kind of car should be able to traverse it. Our compact rental car did great. There is a parking area, and then a trail through the lava fields to the beach
