Big Island, Hawai'i Guide for Foodies & Luxury Hotel Lovers
Big Island, Hawai'i Guide for Foodies & Luxury Hotel Lovers
Kristyne Wada
Available for hire
The Island of Hawai’i, or Big Island, is home to some of my favorite Hawaiian food like poke, shave ice and huli huli chicken. Combine that with stunning luxury resorts along the Kohala Coast and the gorgeous Hāpuna Beach (recently rated the best beach in the U.S.!) and you'll see why the Big Island is my favorite Hawaiian island. It’s a great vacation destination for couples or families looking to indulge, eat well and enjoy the unique natural beauty of the islands!
As your luxury travel advisor, I can secure exclusive perks with your hotel stays, making your Big Island even more unforgettable.
