The rooms were a little bit worn but we had a oceanfront view which was gorgeous. From our balcony, we could look down into the tidal pools and watch turtles & fish of all varieties. It was like a view you would get when snorkeling. The snorkeling beach next door is public and a little crowded but the snorkeling is one of the best on the island. You can swim with the turtles (but don't touch or bother them in any way!!. Remember these are not sand beaches. The pool area was very nice, but not large & fancy.There is no hot tub. Like all pool areas there was a shortage of lounges. Get there early and save one with a towel, then go get breakfast. They have a great breakfast buffet. Ours was included in our package. The bar/lounge was very nice with great staff and also had a great view of the turtles. There is a nice activity desk (Expedia)with helpful people. We had dinner at the resortone night which was good. All the prices are typical resort prices. They also had a very nice gift shop. The beach/pool restaurant and bar is also very nice. They charge $5/day parking which we didn't like. They will valet for you but then you need to tip as well as pay the $5, But that's what we did just for the convenience and because we were on vacation. We really liked the place!!

Traveler rating: Kailua-Kona: Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort : "Overall, a lotta bang for your buck" Nov 7, 2005 : A TripAdvisor Member, oregon Compare prices with: I stayed at this hotel in: November, 2005 My ratings for this hotel are: Rooms Service Value Cleanliness Dining Activities and gym Pool I traveled to this hotel with: spouse/partner I recommend this hotel for: couples and romantics, families with teenagers, seniors, budget travelers, tourists My visit was for: extended vacation Would I stay at this location again: absolutely! Just returned from 8 days at OKBR. If you're not finicky, there is good value here. Like others who have posted, the place could use a little "umpf" But since you're gone most of the day does it really matter what color the paint, or condition of the carpet ? Our room was more than adequate with coffee maker, refrigerator, clothes iron, security safe, lanai, big shower. We shopped before booking and figured we saved over $60 per day and got more amenities. Our standard garden view still had an ocean view without paying the upgrade, plus received the 5th night for free. The Kama'aina Terrace restaurant puts on a great breakfast buffet, worth the $13.95. We only ate one dinner here, Fridays prime rib-seafood dinner buffet. At $34.95 it was only so-so. Most regular dinner prices run $18 to $35. Bar drinks run $8.00, do your own in-room. I can recommend lunch at the Kalanikai Grill. Good burgers or fish and chips at $8.00 in an ocean side setting. There is a mall within a mile of here that has fast food and grocery stores. Buy your pop, booze, and munchies and eat in room. Look around for other dining options. Tennis courts, swimming pool, and exercise room available. Next door to the resort is a great beach for swimming and snorkeling. Go to Snorkel Bobs on Alii Dr. to rent your gear for $9.00/week. All in all, I'd recommend to anyone. Very hard to beat the value. This review is the subjective opinion of a TripAdvisor member and not of TripAdvisor, Inc. 17 out of 17 TripAdvisor users found this review to be helpful.

Traveler rating: Kailua-Kona: Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort : "Lovely resort but they need to upgrade their rooms" Nov 3, 2005 : View larger photos Compare prices with: I stayed at this hotel in: October, 2005 My ratings for this hotel are: Rooms Service Value Cleanliness Dining Activities and gym Pool I traveled to this hotel with: spouse/partner I recommend this hotel for: couples and romantics, families with small children, families with teenagers, tourists My visit was for: extended vacation Would I stay at this location again: probably not I selected this hotel based on positive reviews from Trip advisor. However, our room (#645) was horrible (stained carpeting and torn bed spread), so we asked for another room. Carpeting should be clean so that I can walk comfortably barefooted. The carpeting in our new room #515 was better but still needs replacing. The bathroom above ours leaked one day and we had to ask for maintenance to come in and fix the problem. Maid service was poor two times: Left used glasses on the table and left used towels in the bathroom floor, yet they took the other used towels. On the positive side, our room was large with a king bed, two chairs, table and ottoman, desk/chair; fabulous view of the pool area and ocean/tide pools. Service at the bar was great, although drinks were a little pricy. Excellent dinner at their main restaurant. We enjoyed the mai tais while watching the sunset and seeing the many turtles sleeping on the rocks in front of us in the tide pool. Nightly entertainment was quite enjoyable. I would definitely return here only if they upgrade their rooms. We were at least lucky to have been upgraded to an ocean deluxe room without any additional charges. Pick a room closer to the ocean to avoid the street noise. This place is located about 5 miles from the center of Kona on Alii drive. Also, Kahaluu beach, next to the hotel, is the BEST place for snorkeling. Bring an underwater camera!! I had the opportunity to swim within inches of turtles, Moorish idols, triggerfish, puffers, parrot fish, etc. This is the best place for snorkeling, especially for beginners. Just up the street is a shopping center, where you can grocery shop: Pick up the large bottle of mai tai mix and dark rum and save on your bar bill by making your own mai tais. Good place to shop for bottled water, sandwiches, and sushi! An internet cafe is there too. Overall we did enjoy our stay, but again, would like to see the place upgraded. Maybe there are other rooms that are refurbished. Ask before you book. One last thought: We spent five nights there. I think the next time we will book a condo like we did when we visited Kauai. This way we could have a kitchen to cook our breakfast and have a more comfortable place to stay.

Traveler rating: Kailua-Kona: Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort : "Location, Location, Location" Oct 30, 2005 : A TripAdvisor Member, Dayton, Nevada Compare prices with: I stayed at this hotel in: October, 2005 My ratings for this hotel are: Rooms Service Value Cleanliness Dining Pool I traveled to this hotel with: spouse/partner I recommend this hotel for: couples and romantics, honeymooners, families with small children, families with teenagers, seniors, students, budget travelers, active/adventure travelers My visit was for: extended vacation Would I stay at this location again: absolutely! We stayed at the Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort for 5 days in October. It is such a beautiful hotel in such a fabulous location. We had an Ocean View room which overlooked the beach, pool and on towards Kona Bay. The staff and service was wonderful. The hotel is begining to show its age but is still well maintained and very clean. On our last night there, the A/C went out on us. My friend when down to the front desk to report the problem and the maintenence man beat him back to the room. The problem was taken care of in about 30 minutes. Because we stayed 5 nights, we were intitled to the Breakfast Buffet and it's fabulous. They had every fruit you could want and then some. Eggs fixed several different ways, french toast and pancakes or waffles. Bacon and sausage as well as hash browns and potatoes fixed in some other ways. Each day there was several different things added in to make it interesting. For lunch, we were usually off sightseeing and ate wherever we were. Do to the high cost of food at most hotels, we found some wonderful places near the hotel. There is a Wendy's just up the hill. Just beyond that, there is a lovely mall that has Drysdales II, a fun restaurant with a neverending menu. We ate there twice. In the same mall we found a great little Mexican restaurant. It is small but there are tables inside and outside. The service is fast and the food is unbelievable. We ate there twice also. Next to that, all in a row, there is a Thai restaurant, a Subway in cast you just need a deli fix. These places were much less expensive than hotels and gourmet type restaurants if you are traveling on a budget. In the middle of this Mall, there is a small courtyard where they have intertainment several nights a week. All are FREE. We got lucky and saw a wonderful Hula show on Friday night and on Saturday, there was a Dixieland band for an hour then a wonderfully crazy band that played fiddles, washboards, accordions, base etc. Everyone was up dancing and clapping and carrying on. What fun. The Keauhou Beach Resort is a wonderful place to stay. Away from the noise of a town but close enough to visit as often as you want to. Will I stay there again? You bet I will.

Traveler rating: Kailua-Kona: Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort : "A quiet, lovely and pleasant hotel" Oct 27, 2005 : A TripAdvisor Member, Los Angeles Compare prices with: I stayed at this hotel in: October, 2005 My ratings for this hotel are: Rooms Service Value Cleanliness Dining Activities and gym Pool I traveled to this hotel with: spouse/partner I recommend this hotel for: seniors My visit was for: extended vacation Would I stay at this location again: most likely This was our first trip to the Big Island "Hawaii" and our tenth to these islands. The Outrigger Hotel was booked by anagency for us. It was a surprise to realize that the hotel was located in the southwestern side of the island and not in the northwest. The NW, where the Hilton and the Marriott are located, we found to be quite warm, arid and moon-like! The SW was quite pleasant, tropical and lush. We were blessed for the location of this hotel. The staff was quite polite and accommodating. The food was excellent. The tranquility of the whole place is priceless. The views of the tropical surrounding, the ocean, and the sunsets are unforgettable. The only issue with the hotel is its old carpeting that is planned to be renovated soon. In spite of its age, built in the 70s, the hotel is quite charming and comfortable. Its location from Kona and other attractive places is just perfect. Having a car is a must! We enjoyed snorkeling and swimming using the public sandy beaches accessible within walking distance from the hotel. In spite of having its own sandy beaches it offers many tide pools to enjoy the marine life. We also found the abundance of the sea turtles quite amusing and relaxing in these tide pools and the beaches. For eating, we found a variety of restaurants in Kona and a shopping center up the hill from the hotel driving south on Alii Drive. We definitely stay at this hotel again, as it offers unexpected values to enjoy our vacations.

Peter Young, DLNR Chairperson, provided details on DLNR's unprecedented budget request of $92-million being proposed to the coming Legislature. DLNR’s 2007 Budget Summary The Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) is requesting $92-million for its operating budget for the next fiscal year (2007). The following summary provides some details on programs and initiatives DLNR will be able to undertake when the budget request is approved. DLNR’s budget is unprecedented in scope and scale and demonstrates Governor Lingle's commitment to protecting our natural and cultural resources for the benefit of future generations. History In 2002, DLNR’s budget was $60-million; DLNR is currently requesting $92-million · The requested amount is unprecedented in the history of DLNR · The difference represents an increase of over 50% over the 2002 budget · The difference represents an increase of over $15-million from this year’s budget Breakdown of $92-million budget request · General Funds - $29-million · Special Funds - $50-million · Federal Funds - $13-million How will DLNR's proposed budget be spent? DLNR’s budget represents an investment in improving the quality of life for the people of Hawaii and protection of our precious resources. Many of DLNR's priorities remain the same. However, DLNR will pursue some of its priorities with new tools and methods: Invasive Species · DLNR stands fast in protecting the resources and fighting Invasive Species is our number one priority because it is the single most-effective way to protect Hawaii’s natural resources · The proposal calls for continuation of DLNR’s multi-year, $4-million per year initiative · Key program goals: Prevention, Response & Control, Targeted Research and Outreach Parks Maintenance · DLNR is expanding on last year’s initiative that focuses on cleaning and repairing our State Parks facilities (Last year, DLNR asked for, and continues to receive, an added $977,000 to State Parks budget for needed cleaning and repairs.) · $486,000 is requested to be added to this increase so DLNR can expand, from semi-annually to semi-monthly, the power-washing, chemi-clean, steam-cleaning and sanitizing of the 85 statewide Parks restrooms Environmental Education · DLNR is requesting $1-million to support statewide environmental education programs · This will add to the already expanding program of making state land available for private operators to provide environmental education to Hawaii’s children. · Funds will be granted through an RFP process to environmental education providers across the state to enhance their existing environmental education programs. Parks - Harbors Security · DLNR is requesting $800,000 to place uniformed security personnel at State Parks and Harbors · Uniformed security personnel will be placed at 22 of our state parks and patrolling our harbors - they will curtail vandalism & break-ins, handle gates and by their presence will eliminate loitering and illegal activities · Presence serves as a deterrent to inappropriate behavior, provides assistance to and educates users, allows DLNR to monitor the resources and, ultimately, enhances protection of the resources and makes for a more enjoyable experience by all · DLNR enforcement officers spend approximately 40% of their time dealing with State Parks (15%) and Boating (25%) concerns · This program will free up time for DOCARE enforcement officers, allowing them to focus on natural and cultural resource concerns Stream Evaluation · DLNR is requesting $650,000 to work toward fulfillment of the State’s obligation to establish instream flow standards for Hawaii streams · Of the 376 perennial streams statewide, DLNR will evaluate the 1,242 stream diversions and will: o Perform field verification of stream diversions o Assess stream characteristics o Facilitate the determination of instream flow standards Watershed Protection · DLNR is requesting a $4.7-million increase in the spending natural area reserves and watershed protection. o $1.6-million will be used to protect Hawaii's natural area reserves – these serve to preserve and protect Hawaiian biological ecosystems and geological formations. o $2.6-million will focus on watershed resources and support the nine Watershed Partnerships that protect over 1-million acres of Hawaii’s forested watersheds. Aquatic Resources Protection · DLNR is requesting over $1.8-million in added spending to protect Hawaii’s aquatic resources and habitats. Land Acquisition · DLNR is requesting a $4-million in increased spending for land acquisition so the state may preserve and protect important natural and cultural resources. Capital Improvement Projects DLNR is requesting $72-million to make needed capital improvements across the state. This amount is unprecedented in scope and scale for DLNR. Some of the statewide projects include: · $10-million – to continue the ongoing State Parks improvement program · $10-million – to make necessary improvement to Small Boat Harbors and Ramps · $17-million – for improvements to Maui’s inter-island ferry system · $2.6-million – to install sewer pump-out & electrical improvements at Ma’alaea · $18-million - in water source and distribution projects · $2.3-million - to plug the geothermal wells at Wao Kele O Puna · $10-million – to complete the improvements to Waimanalo Wastewater treatment plant For additional information, please call Clifford Inn, Education and Outreach Coordinator for DLNR at 587-0407, via cellular phone at 230-4698 or send a message .

Hawaiian 101 Hawaiian Music 101 "Ho'olohe mai kakou la i na mo'olelo la o ka wa kahiko" (Let us listen together to the stories of the ancient days) Ku Kahakalau "Everything you know is wrong." Firesign Theater Quick test: Name a Hawaiian music artist. If you said Don Ho , or couldn't think of one, this is the page for you. Whatever you think you know about what Hawaiian music sounds like, it's quite possible that you're wrong. If you think it all sounds alike, you're wrong for sure. I've put up a couple of internet "radio stations." Unlike most internet radio, I'll tell you the name of the artist on each song, plus there's a popup box that will show you song title and artist. (They're on Live365 , where you'll have to register if you're a new listener, and you'll have to log on each time you listen. It only takes a minute, and it's well worth doing.) If you're not very familiar with Hawaiian music, these stations are here to introduce you: Hawaiian 101; An Introduction to Hawaiian Music - It's almost two hundred of the best songs from the biggest Hawaiian albums from the lastquarter century (about 13 hours of music), just the thing to introduce you to what you've been missing in contemporary Hawaiian music. You'll hear old Hawaiian songs, pop hits, some reggae, some rock, and even a touch of Polynesian rap. This one's 56k stereo. Slack Key Paradise - All Hawaiian slack key guitar, all the time. Also, some interviews from Dancing Cat Records artists mixed in. This one's set on Shuffle, so you may hear the same artist back to back occasionally, but it's all great. 24k, so even dial-up connections should be able to get it. If you're already a Hawaiian music fan, there's lots more to hear on the web; visit my mikini mele page, the Hawaiian Music Machine, to find all the Hawaiian music on the internet that I know about. Here's some links to learn more about Hawaiian music: Stevo's Hawaiian Music Guide 1997 article (by me) in Perfect Sound Forever music magazine Ukuleles by Kawika , See the artistry that goes into the creation of a great concert ukelele (and a great web page). Download some .wav files and hear the differences. Hawaiian Music Island . To buy Hawaiian music, or learn about artists and records, visit Auntie Maria's site. She's got a special place for you to start, the Introduction Page . Search her database, listen to clips, buy at good prices. Don't forget, while you're there, check her concert calendar . Some great Hawaiian artists may be coming to your neighborhood soon. Don't miss them. And of course, I know you want to buy Hawaiian 101 logo stuff; it's here. I hope this very short introduction will help you start finding some newfavorite songs while you're listening to the most beautiful music in the world, andhelp you support the artists that make it. Maybe I'll see you at a concert one of these days.

Maui Activities are in abundance available, but first let's find out more about Maui. Maui is one of the islands of Hawaii. The second largest island of Hawaii to be exact and is also known as the Valley Isle. Wailuku is the seat of the County of Maui, which includes the islands Kaho'olawe, Lana'i, Maui and Moloka'i. The weather on Maui and in all of Hawaii is the main reason it is such a popular year-round vacation destination. Lets face it, it beats being snowed in Chicago. Part of the reason we have such a wonderful weather here is because of the trade winds that blow in nice warm air from the ocean and the leeward side of the island is in the rain shadow. This side of Maui so not too wet ;but hotter and wetter on the windward side. Most MAUI RESORTS are located on the leeward side of the island. The closer you are to the windward side the more it will rain. The difference between these two climates is what gives rise to the famous MAUI RAINBOWS. The spectacular waterfalls that you probably have seen on some Hawaii Island poster advertisers can be seen best when viewed from the helicopter flight. Lets not forget one of the most important part of any vacation. GOING OUT TO EAT! The restaurants of Maui are from very local great food to world class restaurants featuring world known chefs. One of the most popular dishes here is of course Ahi, and Mahi tunas. Ahi is a Hawaiian name for "big eye, and Yellow fin tuna". There are so many activities on Maui that is impossible to describe them all here. We will be happy to assist you in any Maui activities you decide to participate in. Some of the Maui activities information and booking that you can reserve with us are: Maui Bike Tours Maui Snorkeling Maui Sunset Cruises Maui Horseback Riding Maui Kayaking Maui Wale Watching Maui Parasailing Maui Surfing And much More So if you are ready to experience life's greatest thrills while you are on Maui, book one or more activities with us and will take care of all the guesswork, and the paperwork before you arrive here.
