Here is a great suggestion. Check out Nohonani Condos and Resort, unit 204 which is technically located in an area called Honokawai. Where is this? It is located about 7 minutes South of Kapalua and about ten minutes North of Kaanapali. This condo is truly a hidden gem. When you see the location, you will hardly believe your eyes. Sit on your lanai and what you see is water, as clear as the finest of crystal and a big beautiful beach with white powdery sand. In addition, for those of you who love golf, there are two excellent courses 7 minutes North of the condo in Kapalua. Try the Kapalua Bay course. Zagat guide says” that many call this the friendliest course on the North end of Maui, with great new greens installed just in time for 2008’s inaugural Kapalua LPGA Classic.” You will find wonderful service and that it is enjoyable to players of all skill levels.

The other amazing course is The Kapalua Plantation course which according to the Zagat Guide is “As beautiful and breathtaking as they come and the top rated course in Hawaii. You may have seen it on tv during the PGA’s Mercedes-Benz Championship.”

If your spouse is not a golf lover, there is a wonderful spa at The Ritz Carlton that anyone would find extremely enjoyable. I personally have visited several times and have really enjoyed the massages they offer.

After this fabulous day, you will merely have a 7 minute drive back to the condo (Nohonani 204) and can sit on the lanai overlooking the turquoise water and mellow out sipping a nice cool glass of lemonade or a great bottle of wine. You truly can’t find a better located or more attractive condo.As you fall off to dreamland, you will hear the sound of the gentle waves lulling you to sleep. That is what I call Nirvana!!

Do you or your husband love golf? My husband and I found a wonderful solution to our age old dilemma. I like to shop and he likes to golf. We found our answer while staying at The Whaler Resort  (unit 661). We loved this condo because of its fabulous location, beautifully designed interior and beachfront location. There are two wonderful golf courses located within minutes of this condo. Check out the Kaanapali Golf Resort, Kaanapali Kai. This course offers phenomenal greens and spectacular views and scenery. According to the Zagat’s guide, “you can’t beat the location or service.”

Another course associated with the Kaanapali Golf Resort is called Royal Kaanapali, This is a little more difficult than the Sister course, but if you like a challenge, the track is still manageable for the average golfer.

So, do like we did (unless you both love golf). Stay at the Whaler Resort Condo (661) and send your husband/boyfriend or significant other over to Golfer’s Heaven. The concierge in the lobby will help you book your time. Meanwhile, I walked two minutes to Whaler’s Village, located adjacent to the condo, and spent a leisurely morning or afternoon browsing thru the many unique and wonderful shops. My personal favorite is called “Sand People”. You will both be thrilled with your day and will probably want to repeat it again. Meet back at The Whaler 661, gaze out at the turquoise blue ocean and relax on the lanai, sipping a nice Pine Colada and talk about the highlights of your day!

Come stay with Aloha Condos at the Islander On The Beach Resort on Kauai. This beautiful resort has everything you need on site and the Coconut Marketplace has everything else.

When staying at a beach house at the Moana Kai Beach Houses Resort you will have a magnificent kitchen. Make sure to take the easy walk into town where you will find a Big Save and a discount store. Stock up on fresh local seafood too!

Based in any of our Resorts in Kailua-Kona a great day trip is to head North around the island. Cruise through the Parker Ranch, up through Honaka’a, hit the waterfalls just out of Hilo, stop for lunch in Hilo, and finish out the day at the Volcano Park. It’s a big island but it’s not too big.
