Golfer's Guide to All Inclusive Hawaii Vacations
The only bad thing about playing golf in Hawaii is distraction. Not too many people can concentrate on their backswings with the crystal blue waters of the Pacific to their right, a majestic volcano to the left, a palm-lined fairway in front, a brilliant azure sky above, and a steady, relaxing breeze all around. Not a problem for you?Golfers tend to make a bee line for Hawaii Island, where they scamper across courses along the Kohala Coast: Hualalai, the Mauna Lani Resort, and the Mauna Kea Resort. There are also the Waikoloa Beach Resort and Ocean courses, as well as the Alii Mountain Course at the Kona Country Club. The biggest share of golf courses in the islands is in Oahu, with 40 public and private courses peppering the island. Head out to the North Shore for the Kahuku Golf Course and the Arnold Palmer and George Fazio courses at the Turtle Bay Resort. If you plan on staying in Honolulu, you can play the courses at Ala Wai, Hawaii Kai, and Moanalua.
All Inclusive Hawaii Vacations in Lanai Island
If youre looking for a true getaway that hides you in tranquility, miles from the crowds and the bustle of city life; Lanai is your island. Known as Hawaii's "Most Secluded Island", Lanais population is a mere 5,000 residents; the perfect island escape. Lanai boasts of two exquisite Four Seasons resorts, offering luxurious seclusion. Make sure your all inclusive Hawaii vacations will include the following Lanai destinations: Keahiakawelo (Garden of the Gods), Puu Pehe (Sweetheart Rock), Munro Trail (a trail that goes up 1,600 feet amidst Norfolk pines planted in the early 1900s by New Zealand naturalist George Munro), and Lanaihale ("house of Lanai", the highest point in the island at 3,370 feet). From this peak you can see most of the other islands of Hawaii plus Maunalei Gulch, where the Lanai's defenders failed to stop the advance of Kamehameha I's warriors. Dont miss out on these other sights as well: Kaunolu Village, the abandoned fishing villages of Lopa, Naha and Keomuku, Shipwreck Beach, and the south-easterly shore facing Hulopo'e Bay for great snorkeling.
