Once in a lifetime luxury vacation
Review Submitted: November 24, 2007
Date of Stay: November 2007
My husband and I wanted to do something memorable for our children and grandchildren. We could not all be together for Christmas here at our home, so we decided to bring Christmas to them with a present of a once in a lifetime luxury vacation. We started planning this vacation the end of 2006 and it became a reality November 10 through November 17, 2007. Our daughter and son-in-law, and 2 grandchildren, ages 12 and 6, live in Montana. We have a son who lives in California with his girlfriend, and another son who lives in our hometown here, Joliet, IL, along with our 1-year old grandson. My daughter's mother-in-law lives here in Joliet IL. She also made the trip. We had 11 in all. Family is important to us and this opportunity for all of us to be together was so special. This was the first time my daughter and her family met their 1-year old nephew and cousin from Joliet. The grandchildren loved being together. The setting for this reunion could not have been more perfect. This home was elegant yet still homey where we were so comfortable. We so enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and lanai with the breathtaking view of the Bay. The living area upstairs was perfect for my daughter's family and mother-in-law. This home was a luxury experience for all of us. This home would be suited for all travelers who are looking for togetherness, serenity, and beauty. We enjoyed going to the beach and snorkeling. I would have to say that was the most enjoyable for the family. We did a day of kayaking, hiking, and swimming by a waterfall. The Waimea Canyon was beautiful to see also. The Kilauea Lighthouse was interesting. The Bull Shed was a fantastic restaurant for adults. If this experience could be repeated for our family, we would truly spend our vacation time at this paradise.
