There are still many great off-the-beaten-path options in Hawaii: Puu O Hoku Ranch on Molokai, Hotel Lanai on Lanai, Paia Inn on Maui, Kaawa Loa Plantation and Waianuhea on the Big Island, the Wilcox Estate in Hanalei, Kauai... and the list goes on and on!Tara @ Pacific Bride Guidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531828697443460990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26408605.post-83407482436142702462007-06-28T10:49:00.000-05:002007-06-28T10:49:00.000-05:00Thank you so much!!

If you're thinking of staying on Kauai, the Hyatt is the place you want to be.

We spent 4 very quiet days by the pool relaxing, and enjoying the poolside service. We stayed in the village by the water, and drove up to the pool once a day and back in the evening for dinner. The tents were fun, and the food was good (if expensive) most nights we ate on the beach by tiki torch. Aside from the Ranch, there is really nothing to do on Molokai, so don't go there if you're looking for night life or lots of activities. There are horseback rides, snorkeling and other excursions available thru the Ranch, but we didn't do any of them, in favor of sitting down and doing nothing in the sun, which is exactly what we wanted to do. The excursions were also a bit on the expensive side, so we just chilled. Bring a good book or a game you both enjoy, there are no tv's in the tents. The location was isolated, but we didn't mind. It was very, very relaxing and very quiet. If you do stay in the tents, make a point to stay up late one night and star gaze. It's the stariest night sky you'll ever see!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26408605.post-26762678198609051572007-06-27T20:43:00.000-05:002007-06-27T20:43:00.000-05:00HI!I don't know if you'll see this-or have time- b...HI!<BR/><BR/>I don't know if you'll see this-or have time- but I'm hoping you might tell me a bit more about your time at the Molokai Beach Village. I am driving myself crazy reading all the comments on trip advisor.com. It seems to be a love/hate kind of experience! Can I ask what time of year you went-and how long ago? Also-did you mind the drive to get back to the ranch to use the pool, etc. Thanks for any info you might have time to dish! We are planning our honeymoon for this october-thank you!!- KatieKatie Runnelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02907626729320129617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26408605.post-1151410583165398592006-06-27T07:16:00.000-05:002006-06-27T07:16:00.000-05:00This looks gaw-gous!
