I mean its probably worth 2 days or so to check out and to say you've been there, but there's much cheaper and equally as nice resorts anywhere else. There's no water park, but there's a decent pool with a cool lazy river as well. As said above, its not your typical Hawaiian or even tiki-themed resort. Its very respectful of the culture, because the idea is that the Hawaiian culture and practices are NOT extinct, as many people make them out to be. For example, those who wish to work at Olelo Restaurant/Lounge must be fluent in the native Hawaiian language. Kinda cool when you realize that a lot of Hawaiians hate us "mainlanders" and all, its a respectful way to take their land a build a resort on it. :D
