I recently got back from a wonderful stay at Four Seasons. This is by far the nicest hotel I've stayed at. Four Seasons Maui was also nice but Hualalai was so much better in terms of setting and overall look and feel. Hualalai makes you feel like you are in paradise. Although Big Island wasn't my most favorite out of... More

This hotel has the best service I have ever experienced. It's expensive, and you pay for it - but the staff is very well trained on being attentive to their guests.

We were greeted with a fresh flower lei and a Mai tai , then taken by golf cart to our suites and rooms. The rooms were fantastic . The rooms simply and elegantly appointed , very quiet with... More

Incredible five nights in a suite with both a steam and outdoor shower! They think of everything, a book light next to the bed, four kinds of coffee creamer in the fridge, a toaster in the room, real candles. I'm spoiled forevermore by the service, food, staff and setting. So many pools (one pond for snorkeling and a lap pool)... More

Great customer service in all areas of the resort. But very expensive, food and drink at all the restaurants and bars. The food is excellent though and big, so you can share. Lots to do. Enjoyed our stay.

We have stayed here for years and this trip was good, but not as great as it has been. Mostly small issues, like a sunblock being broken by house keeping, raw chicken at dinner or poor service at the family pool/beach. Noisy guests having a wild party late at night... Without asking, the product was shipped to my home. The... More
