Hotels Lanai

Hawaii is the 50th state of the United States and consists only of islands. It forms part of the islands in the Polynesia group and is located in the Pacific Ocean. Hawaii is known for its natural beauty and the tropical climate invites surfers, tourists and nature lovers to its waters. Visitors to the hotels Lanai provides will not be able to withstand its attraction. Many of the volcanoes on the island are still active and this brings many volcanologists to its shores. The island has developed its own unique culture from a variety of influences, mainly from the North Americas and Asia. Hawaii, meaning "homeland", has the city of Honolulu as its capital and houses more than a million residents.

The island of Lanai is also called the Pineapple Island as a large pineapple plantation covered the island at one time. At the widest point, it is only 18 miles across and the total island is 140 square miles. Its only town, Lanai City, is rather a small settlement. It is suggested that the visitor who wishes to explore the island do so with a four-wheel drive vehicle, as a large number of the landmarks on the island are only accessible via dirt roads. Tourism on Lanai increased when more land became available when the pineapple plantations decreased and the sugar cane industries came to a halt. Guests at the hotels Lanai supplies, who are golf fanatics, should take note of the two well-regarded golf courses that are found on Lanai. The Experience at Koele was designed by Greg Norman and The Challenge at Manele was designed by Jack Nicklaus.

Many industries played a role in the economy of Hawaii, most importantly sugarcane and pineapples, whaling and sandalwood. The presence of the military and educational opportunities also contributed to providing employment to the people of the island. As from 1959, however, tourism became the major contributor. The island also exports food and apparel, but the shipping distance to markets does not make it a significantly viable option. Food exports include coffee and macadamia nuts.

Most of the activities on the islands are water sports. Surfing, snorkeling and scuba diving are popular and the hiring or borrowing of kayaks and surfboards can easily be arranged at one of the hotels Lanai supplies with a concierge desk. Fishing is a favorite pastime and diving is an obvious choice. The beaches are spectacular and merely walking on the beach or sunbathing is often just a step away from the hotel. Waikiki Beach is one of the best known spots in Hawaii and is definitely worth a visit.

Hawaii offers the visitors to these islands two national parks to explore. Haleakalā National Park is found near Kula and has the dormant Haleakalā volcano as a major attraction and the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is where the active Kīlauea is on display. Be on the lookout for its several rift zones. Arrange with the hotel to pack a picnic lunch and head for any of the three national historical parks that are found in the area. Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park is in the town of Kailua-Kona on the island of Hawaii and in close proximity to select hotels Lanai has on offer.
