On Kauai, St Regis. But I don’t know since the typhoon. On Maui the Wailea is the stealth best value. Better than RC weather wise and way above the Kannapalli properties. Big island the Manua Kea. I hate Oahu so don’t really like any of the properties there.

Overall the Wailea for overall experience as I find the str a little too chichi for Hawaii, but if you’re into Chichi....

St R is an old & tired property. Yes, views and service are good (butlered suites) but IMHO, it has a very 1970s Bali Hai kind of feel. They also lose me because they have no balconies.

It also kind of depends on what you want. If you have a family, check out the Westin ocean villas or the Nanea. May not be as luxurious as the wailea, but great resort facilities and restaurant/shopping options within walking distance

Wailea

Anyone deal with this before: I inherited a severely under developed team including a sr analyst who clearly was doing the bare minimum, if that.

He lashed out, involved HR saying he doesn’t understand why, and now my review points out stuff that I would have let slide.
