limited menu impossible table
the breakfast was acceptable, i guess. it certainly had variety (i especially liked the sushi).
the all-inclusive thing was a total joke. the 'small menu' they kept pushing got old fast. basic stuff like ice cream weren't even included, i mean, seriously? plus, they tried to get me to pay extra for the lobster buffet. paying extra wouldn't be an issue, but getting a table was impossible because of the crowds.

Really good stay!

attentive staff varied choice
i ABSOLUTELY loved my time here. The staff were super attentive and anticipated my needs. The food at the Kokulo Beach Club was really good and the breakfast offered varied choices daily.
The evening entertainment could be improved. Although the fire show was great, there could be more variety in the program.
