Star Rating User Rating Escape to the tropical splendor of the Diamond Hawaii Resort and Spa As Hawaiis uniquely Japanese-themed all suite resort, Diamond Hawaii Resort and Spa is among the most unique hotel in the state and yet it is surprisingly affordable. Perched 300 feet above the beautiful Wailea coastline, nearly all of Diamond Hawaii Resort's 72 luxury suites offer inspiring views of Kaho'olawe, Lana'i and Molokini islet . At the same time, the resort is far enough away from the daily hustle and bustle of central Wailea to give her guests a sense of ultimate privacy and peace. Once a private retreat for affluent Japanese visitors, today Diamond Hawaii Resort specializes in presenting an authentic Japanese experience for its guests. From dining in their fine restaurants, to relaxing in the traditional Japanese spa baths, and walking among the richly landscaped gardens, waterfalls, and pools filled with Koi, you will find Diamond Resort a relaxing haven in which to unwind.Diamond Hawaii Resort and Spa is a place where the best of the East meets the best of the West. Diamond Hawaii Resort is home to three exceptional restaurants as well as an open air spa. The Diamond Spa puts the Ahhh in the word spa. Few cultures have elevated bathing to such heights and the Japanese believe that furo or spa bathing restores the spirit as well as the body. Complimentary use of the spa is included with your room. After bathing, enjoy one of the many types of massages or facials. There are five championship 18-hole golf courses and 11 tennis courts next door too.

Hawaiian City Garden

Best Gardening Resources Here Best Gardening Resources Here Gardening--Fun and Frugal! Gardening--Fun and Frugal! by: Cyndi Roberts Whether you are an avid vegetable gardener, a beginning herb gardener or just like to have a pretty yard, these frugal tips may help you save a little money! 1. Stale coffee and coffee grounds make great organic fertilizer. They provide many trace minerals and low, gentle levels of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous. 2. Remember that a good soaking of water less often is better than a light sprinkling every day -- for veggies and for your lawn. 3. If your neighbor has a plant you particularly like, ask for a cutting, instead of going to the nursery and buying one. Maybe you could trade a cutting from one of your own plants. 4. To easily water a tomato plant, bury a bottomless coffee can next to the plant and pour the water into the can. This allows the water to go straight to the roots. 5. Plant marigolds in your vegetable garden. They will attract insects that eat aphids and other pests. 6. My husband bought some used carpet at a garage sale, cut it into wide strips and laid it down between the rows in our garden. Now we can pick peas with getting our shoes muddy. 7. Use grass clippings as mulch around your vegetable plants to keep moisture in and weeds out. Just don't use the clippings right after you have fertilized your grass or treated for weed control. 8. If you have access to them, pine needles make excellent mulch. 9. A natural, frugal garden pest spray: mix 1 tablespoon of liquid dishwashing soap and 1 cup of cooking oil. Use 3 tablespoons of this mixture to 1 quart of water and spray on plants. 10. In the herb garden, to keep plants like mint from taking over too big an area, put it in a clay pot and simply plant the whole pot! "He who plants a garden, plants happiness."
