"With the longest stretch of oceanfront golfing in all of Hawaii, plus 17 miles of hiking trails and access to Kalapaki Beach, Timbers is a refreshing addition to the hotel scene on the southeast coast of Kauai and barely 10 minutes from Lihue Airport. The property is spread across 450 last-to-be-developed oceanfront acres on Kauai. The architecture is by Poss Architecture + Planning in Aspen, Colorado, and the buildings, which incorporate anything from one- to four-bedroom accommodations, take full advantage of vast views of the ocean and the deeply green Hau'pu mountains in the distance. The Farm at Hokuala ensures honest field-to-table ingredients at Hualani's Restaurant. On-site Adventure Guides can be arranged for tours of the south shore, including the chance for snorkelers to catch a glimpse of the state fish, the humuhumunukunukuapua'a, in Poipu."
