to eat!
Polo Bar and Paniolo Lounge
1 N Kaniku Dr Orchid at Mauna Lani, Kohala Coast
96743 • 808-885-2000
After a day spent enjoying the beach or exploring the Big
Island's many sights, relax in genuine refinement in this upscale bar and
lounge, where patrons gather over a round of billiards or play board games. If
you've repose on your mind, settle into one of the cozy chairs. Peruse the
pub-style menu, order a favorite cocktail or imported ale, enjoy a fine cigar,
or even sip a cup of gourmet Kona coffee. Live entertainment and dancing on
Friday and Saturday evenings. You’ll find no shortage of ways to pamper
yourself at the Polo.
Honu Bar
68-1400 Mauna Lani Dr Francis H. I'i Brown Golf Course Clubhouse, Kohala 96743
Chic and contemporary, the Mauna Lani Bay's popular bar and lounge area is an
excellent place to catch your breath and make a couple of new acquaintances. If
the competitive bug bites, pool tables and gaming tables are open for guest use,
and those needing to shake a leg are welcome to showcase their skills on the
dance floor. Fine wines, imported ales, and premium liquor are all served up by
the professional bar-staff, and the kitchen dazzles with late evening munchies
and standard pub fare as well as with sushi, sashimi, and traditional Indonesian
satays.

Beach Tree Bar and Grill
100 Ka`upulehu Dr Four Seasons Resort Hualalai, Ka`upulehu-Kona
96740 808-325-8000
Tropical drinks, beautiful scenery, and a short
walk to the water – if the world were a fair place, every town would have a
joint like this. At the exotic little cabana bar, you can
sip your favorite mixed drink (mai tais and margaritas are always the biggest
hits), get a bit of sun, and feel the sand between your toes. All the while, a
veritable parade of gorgeous bodies marches past you on the way to the beach.
Indeed, if only the world were a fair place!

Brown's Beach House
1 N Kaniku Dr Orchid at Mauna Lani, Kohala Coast

Outdoor seating and terrific oceanside scenery set the stage at this Orchid
treasure, whose extensive wine list and traditional Hawaiian cuisine have turned
more than a few heads. Dine in a near-paradisiacal setting, highlighted by lush
greenery, elegantly appointed candle-lit tables, and an enchanting tropical
lagoon. Dinner patrons are wowed by the menu's versatility, and choices range
from Seared Crisp Moi with Basmati Rice to Kobe-Style Rib Eye with fingerling
potatoes and Ponzu dipping sauce. Exceptional nightly entertainment by duos Nino
& Kevin or Grant & Moku, plus an entrancing hula dancer make for an
unforgettable evening. Recommended dress code during the day is pool, beach and
casual attire, cover-ups are suggested. For the evening, casual resort attire is

Coast Grille
62-100 Kauna'oa Dr Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel, Kohala
96743 • 808-880-1111
The signature restaurant of the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel is known far and wide
for its superb Hawaiian and Pac Rim cuisine. While serious appetites charge
forth in pursuit of fresh fish and seafood entrees (Kona-by-way-of-New England
lobster, farm-raised moi, and pistachio-crusted opah, to name but a few), the
restaurant's oyster bar offers a more casual setting for those looking to eat
light and enjoy a few cocktails. From bluff side seating areas, diners take in
enchanting sunsets in the early evening, not to mention sweeping views of waves
crashing on Hapuna Beach far below. Reservations are a must.
