Our girls are still asking when they can go back to Hualalai and tell us that this trip to Hawaii was the best vacation they've every had. The highlight for them was the extensive and creative activities for kids of all ages including unique and cultural programs like hula dancing and mask making. Every detail for kids has been thought of here - from swim diapers at the pool to customized special treats in the room; the result is parents are able to relax too and everyone enjoys the gorgeous grounds and amenities. There is a saltwater protected lagoon with over 4,000 tropical fish which was great for snorkeling without surf. The food is excellent with a fresh breakfast buffet we all loved. The hotel is luxurious but not pretentious, key for a family-friendly atmosphere.
