Today is Saturday. Both of us are still tired from our drive around West Maui yesterday. So we explored our resort after brunch. A half-mile sidewalk connects the four major resorts here in Wailea. It's called the Beach Walk. Clever name since it goes along the beach. From south to north, the resorts are the Fairmont Kea Lani, the Four Seasons, Grand Wailea, and the Marriott. Each one has its own personality. The Grand Wailea is by far the most eye-popping with massive freeform swimming pools complete with waterslides, poolside bars, etc. It seems to cater to families because the pool areas were wall-to-wall kids. Don't they have SCHOOL at this time of year?? Also, at the Grand Wailea plopped on their beachside lawn is this cute, little chapel, ready for the next wedding. 350 weddings a year are held here!

The Four Seasons exudes elegance and tranquility. You know that when you take a deep breath anywhere on the property (besides smelling the heavenly tropical floral scents) that you will exhale all the stress that may have come with you from the mainland. No detail is overlooked. This is one of the top hotels in the world.

The other two resorts fall somewhere in between. We are happy we chose the Four Seasons. Larry says "we got the deal." And "the deal" to him means that he got the hotel that satisfies him the most.

Tonight, dinner at the Pacific Grill, one of the three restaurants here at the hotel...
