The staff was friendly and very healthy! Beautiful property! Great view of arsenal volcano. Would highly recommend to friends and family

If I were to complain at all, it would be with the beds and the TV. The beds could be a bit better and updating... More

I admit that my expectations might be a little much when I'm in a foreign country. Especially if you're not paying 4 Seasons prices. That's why I was so happy about the Manoa. It's a true resort with outdoor cabanas for massages, happy hour in the pool with swim-up bar, and close proximity to the adventure sports. The free breakfast... More
