Hawaii’s National Parks: Exploring Four Islands from Volcanoes to Pearl Harbor

Comfortable, laid back Hilo is the gateway to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and an authentic taste of Hawaii's Big Island. The Hilo Hawaiian Hotel is located right on Hilo Bay and only two miles from Hilo Airport. Old banyan trees line the drive to the hotel, most of which were planted in the 1930's by celebrities such as Babe Ruth, Amelia Earhart and Cecil B. DeMille. Mauna Kea looms in the background and the arched bridge that leads to Coconut Island is only steps from the doors of the property. The hotel is flanked by a beautiful beach, the Liliuokalani Gardens and the Naniloa Country Club.

The Courtyard by Marriott King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel is a beachfront hotel located on the Big Island of Hawaii's Kona Coast and is 8 miles from Kona International Airport and 105 miles from the city of Hilo. This former king's residence in the heart of the historic fishing village of Kailua-Kona overlooks Kamakahonu Bay and is within easy walking distance to Hulihee Palace, shops, and restaurants in town. Historic artifacts and images are located throughout the hotel.

This beachfront hotel is situated on 11 acres and located just steps from the ocean on the white sands of Kaanapali Beach. Free daily cultural lessons on topics including hula, ukulele, and Hawaiian language are just one of the reasons this property is known as “Hawaii’s Most Hawaiian Hotel”. The property’s thoughtful design features Hawaiian cultural artifacts and art throughout, including employee-made makamae (precious gifts) shadow boxes that contain traditional handmade Hawaiian items in each guest room.

Hotel Molokai, the only hotel on the island of Molokai, is a rural, relaxed oasis in a busy world. With its charming A-frame architecture, Polynesian-style decor, ocean front detached cottages, and location a few miles from Kaunakakai town, it is a genuine hideaway and treasure from all things mainstream. There is breathtaking natural beauty, deserted beaches, no high-rise buildings, and an ‘old’ Hawaii feel in Molokai.

The Twin Fin Hotel is on Kalakaua Avenue, just steps away from the renowned Waikiki beach, a vibrant gathering place for visitors from around the world. We’re on the mellow Diamond Head side of Waikiki, but only a short stroll to unique eateries and iconic attractions. As a gathering place for guests to discover local music, art, and a lasting connection with the community that surrounds them, you’ll find refreshed guestrooms, updated design, and authentic experiences rooted in Hawaiian culture in our revitalized hotel. And of course, front-row views overlooking Waikiki Beach.
