Dirty, old and run down. Not even close to the Four Seasons in Kona or Wailea. They are relying solely on the gorgeous beach, which is public (fine) with public restrooms (yuck) and rooms with florescent lights, mold in bathroom, horrible food. If you have never stayed at a Four Seasons, you might think it is incredible, but it is not even close to their other hotels. It is a dog!
the hotel was great. the room was great. the food was great. the pool was great. the service was great. i would stay here again. you are right near the ocean and the beach.

Beautiful Hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/28/08
This hotel is beautiful! My husband and I stayed here on our honeymoon! The view from the rooms, the hotel lobby and pool are breath taking! The hotel staff is so friendly and helpful! And the food is delicious!! There are shuttles to the Four Season Lodge- which is a nice hotel. But this is definately the most breathe taking of the two!! This hotel is just a little far from the city... But the view and the service are worth it!

Beautiful!

The only reason why I won't visit Lanai soon it's because of an attritional 13-hour flight that just ruined everything. Otherwise, it's heaven on earth. Service and our room were above perfect. Food is pricey, for family of two it was around $450-500 daily.

The heavenly destination
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/07/06
A world class resort. We had a most enjoyable time there. The restaurants and service was superb. Complimentary beach service and snorkeling stuff available,so you need no necessity of bringing your own. Plush beds, large rooms with fantastic views, nice lobby with antiques, it is a most fabulous resort. Elegant gardens are perfect for an evening ...
Lanai was a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the city. We got exactly what we were looking for - sparsely populated beaches, pristine waters, and relaxing atmosphere. There are hiking paths near the hotel, you can see Maui and Kaho'olawe, and on a clear day Hawaii (Big Island) in the distance. Snorkeling is great, spinner dolphins ...

The second visit of a lifetime

I enjoyed my stay at the Manele Bay Hotel for the most part. The staff was friendly and courteous for the most part but quite dumb about local customs and lore.The food would have been acceptable at one tenth the price.I have rated the hotel "good overall"compared to Hi. in general.Hawaii is very over priced everywhere.My worst experience ...

Laid Back Beauty

If you want quality beach time, without fearing you'll miss out on something else, come here. The hotel is situated on the beautiful Manele Bay. Picture post card perfect beach, uncrowded, unspoiled. There is not much to do on this quaint tiny (I mean tiny, 1 gas station, no hospital, no stoplights) little island other than lounge at this ...
The Manele Bay is absolutely wonderful. We stayed there for our honeymoon and had a flawless experience. The service was impeccable. The staff was friendly and helpful, but not overbearing. The decor was elegant but not stuffy. There were many hidden spots to explore in the gardens and the beach wasn't crowded. The hotel is really the only reason to visit Lanai - there's not much else there.
