Built around a vaulted pavilion with open-beam ceilings and a central spiral staircase, this architectural gem is vintage Polynesian. You can climb a tower for 36-degree island views, then swim in the infinity pool and take the water sport gear down a short sandy path to the the pristine sands of Puako. You're near several beaches and less than 5 miles to tennis and golf at Mauna Kea Beach Resort.
