Amenity highlights: Surrounded by an expansive flagstone sundeck and broad lawns equipped with lounge chairs, the pool occupies an elevated, stage-like setting thrust into the ocean. Plumeria trees shade parts of the sundeck. Secluded in a grotto nearby is a large spa. Off to one side is an open-air-massage gazebo. A short stroll away lies horseshoe-shaped Kapalua Bay and its sand beach. An offshore reef protects the bay from heavy surf. Prime snorkeling areas lie at the bay's sides. Strolling to the pool area along a path winding through the garden courtyard and sparingly illuminated by knee-high lights is an excursion into tropical romance, especially when the moon plays with the white froth breaking over the rocky point.

Insider tip: A lovely Hawaiian host oversees the vast lobby, dispensing hookipa (hospitality) and low-key lessons in Hawaiian culture, history, and language. Especially fascinating are her stories about the site's previous history as a pineapple plantation, for which her family ran the general store.
