Bottom Line

The pristine, 249-room Four Seasons Resort Hualalai is a beachfront luxury property on the Big Island's Kohala Coast, offering ample amenities for both couples and families. Lush and beautifully landscaped grounds surround private bungalow-style rooms and suites tucked along winding paths throughout the large property—all with furnished outdoor spaces, big tubs, outdoor showers, and free Wi-Fi. The thoughtfully designed architecture, pools (all eight of them), and public spaces are indulgent without seeming excessive. Dining options are high in quality and include a steakhouse, beachfront restaurant, and sushi lounge. Snorkeling with an eagle ray (and often green turtles), fitness and cultural activities, a full-service spa with a garden and wellness therapies such as Reiki, and tennis courts keep guests occupied, as does a kids' club and an 18-hole golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. Rates here are expensive, so it's worth considering the more affordable Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection.
