My Kona Trip to the Four Seasons Hualalai Trip!
Hello ladies! It has been such a whirlwind around here that I am just getting a chance to share all about my recent trip to Kona Four Seasons Hualalai and there’s so much to share about this gorgeous property, about our adventures and of course what I was wearing!! This trip was a mix of work and girls trip with two of my dearest girlfriends @stylinbyaylin and @azzuracapri! It was our first time traveling together and it was SO MUCH FUN! I’ve seriously never laughed so hard! It says a lot when you can travel with people and end the trip still liking each other! Kidding! ;)
I’d never been to Kona so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from the big island. As I mentioned we stayed at the gorgeous Four Seasons Hualalai and what a beautiful place. First of all the the beaches in Kona can be a little rough because they are made of black lava BUT somehow FS Hualalai managed to find a little piece of calm heaven with white sand beaches and black lava!
What I especially loved about this property is it felt like you where in a perfect little luxury village with NO need to leave property at all! From our AMAZING Kona coffee shop with every homemade gluten free treat I could ask for! To the multitude of restaurants, the 7 pools for any kind of mood we could be in! There was just so much that is felt like the perfect escape. Scroll down to read about our time and also included all my outfit details for you!
Accommodations
They have these incredible beachfront suites that open right to the ocean and offer your own private butler for what ever your whim! These pics where taken in one of those suites, such a treat! But truly all the rooms offer all the amenities you could wish for with stunning ocean views! There’s nothing like waking up to the ocean is there?!
We literally walked to grab our morning coffees in our pajamas everyday… Don’t judge they’re cute PJ’s! :)
What did we do?
Ok I’m going to be really honest; I am the kind of girl that likes to do NOTHING on my vacations but this trip I wanted to push myself to try new things and with Four Seasons Hualalai having so many great activities to offer there was not shortage of options! We decided to take a private golf lesson in their new The Hualalai Golf Hale! I had no idea what I was getting myself into but I figured I know there’s cocktails when you play golf so I’m game! And ok I was blown away by this experience; they have these hologram screens that record and help you perfect your swing, the golf pro’s are super chill and didn’t make me feel ridiculous about my lack of coordination. If you saw my Instastories you saw the hilarity of it all! 😂
If you want to get technical about the fancy stuff in this suite that I’m sure our husbands would totally know and appreciate; some of the features include Topgolf Swing Suite, outdoor hitting bays featuring TrackMan launch monitors, and unique programming created by Eddie Lee, Director of Instruction for the Hualalai Golf Academy.
Ok if golf isn’t your jam there are so many more activities including Tennis, Standup Paddle Boarding, Snorkel Cruises, Fish Feeding and my favorite The Spa to name a few! Speaking of the spa, I had the most INCREDIBLE Lomi Lomi massage ever! It was my first time experiencing Lomi Lomi and it was amazing, we where strategic and went to the spa right before our flight home so that we could sleep like babies on the flights home! Smart right?!
POOL TIME
And of course we spent a LOT of time poolside making memories ad having so many laughs, love these girls! There is 7 Pools to choose from and they are all gorgeous! Our favorite was the quiet pool with cabanas, frozen happy hour treats, yummy food and sunset music… So dreamy! Oh and we also loved the Sea Shell pool because hello swim up bar and the most insane infinity edge! That’s where we took the first pic on this post, gorgeous right?!
Oh also one pool that you can’t miss especially with the kids is the King Pond! It’s an “aquarium" is carved out of the natural lava rock and stocked with more than 4,000 tropical fish. They do ray and fish feedings, give snorkelling lessons or just lounge in what feels like the blue lagoon movie.
FOOD
Ok last but not least; there is no shortage of amazing food at Four Seasons Hualalai! There’s dining options on the property that are all so good and with something special about them! Above I’m at the Beach Tree Bar and Lounge that we loved during the day because of the beautiful views and causal beachside vibe. Get the Mediterranean Salad with Ahi Tuna, so good! And i already mentioned our daily pilgrimage a few times a day for the best coffee at Hualalai Trading Company!
If you’re in the mood for more upscale there theres’s Ulu Sushi Lounge and Hualalai Grill! Both where super delish!
Overall we had such a magical time and honestly I’m dying to go back with the family! The kids would love it AND they have a cool kids club and tons of activities for them so mom and dad can still get a date night in!
So I hope this was helpful to start planning your upcoming Spring Break or Summer trips and that you’ll consider this gem as an option! Truly Four Seasons Hualalai was a dream destination!
XO, Lucy
