Are non-guests allowed to attend the Kona Village luau? The Kona Village is possibly the most tiki of all of the Big Island resort properties, and certainly the most expensive (although meals are included). Maui is the very lush and very tourist friendly. For example, in Ka'anapali, the hotels are in a row, with Whatler's Village, with its evening hula/fire dancing shows. However, as BigBro states, very cosmopolitan. The Big Island is home to Pele and yes, there is an abundance of lava and while the hotel properties are well-landscaped, such is not true for all parts of the island. You will also have to do a lot of driving to see all that the island has to offer. In Hilo there is Uncle Billy's for tropical drinks in a Polynesian atmosphere. Take a stroll through the gardens in the hotel - there are a few somewhat rotting tikis. Not a must see, but a fun older place, according to TheJab. That said, the Place of Refuge, is a very tiki place and well worth selecting the Big Island. |
