Insider tip:
In front of the resort, a freshwater channel passes through the reefs into the ocean. Guides can lead guests to spots in the ocean where the cold mountain water can be felt, places considered by ancient Hawaiians to have healing properties.
Located in four terraced towers grouped around courtyards, the 455 rooms in this resort open onto furnished lanais with views. Guests register in the privacy of their rooms and are welcomed with signature chocolates and fruit. Guestrooms have duvet and pillow covers with Menac designs from France, 300-thread Egyptian-cotton bed linens, and white-on-white decor. Other amenities include complimentary wireless Internet access, soaking tubs and marble vanities, 27-inch flat-screen TVs, DVD/CD players, and in-room safes. Complimentary toiletries include sunscreen and mineral salts.
A $40-a-day charge is applied to each rollaway bed used (fee subject to change without notice).
