• The tiny island of Lana'i is a pristine paradise of a spectacular ocean coast and enchanting highland forest in Hawaii. The island is 98 percent privately owned, which accounts for its sense of a private and naturally calm distinctiveness within the Hawaiian Islands. Lanai is also home to several hotels that cater to tourists.
  
  

Hotel Lanai

• Built in 1923, Hotel Lanai was the first---and only---hotel in Lanai until 1990. Today, Hotel Lanai is an historic landmark and a magnet for those who are in search of the "vintage Hawaiian postcard" experience. Built by James Dole originally for the lodging needs of Dole Plantation executives, Hotel Lanai now serves as one of the prime choices of accommodation in Hawaii. With 11 guest rooms and a restaurant on-site, Hotel Lanai bills itself as Hawaii's "Best Little Inn". All guest rooms boast a charming plantation-style motif preserved from the hotel's original design. Each room has a distinctive set of Hawaiian quilts and artwork specially made by Lanai artists. Simply equipped with ceiling fans, private bathrooms with showers and pedestal sinks, the rooms at Hotel Lanai focus on providing comfort. The staff strictly prohibits smoking in the hotel.

The Lodge at Koele

• The Lodge at Koele is your private getaway to Lanai City. Very much like a country manor, the Lodge sits in a hidden part of the central highlands on the private island of Lanai. While all else share in the oceanfront view of Hawaii, the Lodge offers a pleasant surprise: the side of Hawaii that's lush and green and blooming with color. The Lodge has 102 guest rooms and suites. The natural surroundings inspire the residential-style furnishings and colorful décor. All rooms have ceiling fans, paintings by local artists, cozy window seats and carved pineapple finials on the two-poster beds. Technology includes a 40-inch LCD television and high-speed Internet access. Views from the rooms and suites vary from lush gardens, an orchid house, a pagoda, a reflecting pond, riding stables and an old Hawaiian church.
