Lanai Hawaii - The Most Secluded Isle
Hawaii's Lanai (lah-nigh-ee) Island, which was once the mere capital of pineapple production, is now becoming an international tropical holiday destination. Lanai's biggest selling point is that it is the perfect "getaway" location! On this little island you will find little hustle and bustle, friendly and inviting dining and accommodation options and a relaxed nightlife. The island has remained an unspoiled oasis that has a characteristic small town feel - the only exceptions to this are the two luxury resorts that were recently developed. The Lodge at Koele and The Manele Bay Hotel are examples of two such resorts. . To read the history behind Lanai - click here.
