We arrived on Monday afternoon and drove our great little rental car over to our hotel to check in. We found our wonderful room then headed out to find some food.
(The view from our hotel room)
We were starving! (Why in the world did they stop giving us food on airplanes? Not even peanuts!) We found the bar and grill at our hotel and went for a late lunch.
We enjoyed the rest of the day at the pool and then headed over to Mai Tai hour by the ocean. They had free Mai Tais and live music/hula dancers from 5-6 almost every day. We listened to the music for a while then headed over to a hammock by the ocean to relax for a while.
Realizing that we were exhausted we headed back to the room and ended up ordering room service for dinner because we were too tired to head out anywhere else. It was definitely the last time we would do that!
Tuesday morning we got up and had breakfast at the restaurant at our hotel. We had a great view of the ocean during our meal.
We headed over to the concierge and the activity planner and planned out the rest of our trip with their help.
For the rest of the morning we went for a hike along the ocean cliffs on the Maha ulepu trail that was pretty close to our hotel.
Then off to the store for food for breakfast and peanut butter and bread that we could use for the rest of the week. We also came home with lunch :)
That evening we followed the recommendation of our friend Joanna Carr and had dinner at the Beach House Restaurant right next to the water. Before dinner we headed over to the Spouting Horn, to see the water shooting out of the rocks up into the air every time a large wave came.
We had an amazing view of the sunset during dinner and both had wonderful meals at the Beach House, thanks to Joanna (it was our wedding present from her).
That's all for now. More to come very soon!
