My wife and I will be there in february for 10 year anniversary.Any suggestions on eateries near paniolo or any other romantic endeavors such as perfect spots for sunsets etc.... Thanx for your help !!!!!
 
You are close to the Waikoloa shopping area that has Roys (haven't eaten there, but have heard great things about it), also the luaua at the Mona Loa is great and I think that is where we have gone for an excellent breakfast buffet at water's edge.
Enjoy, we loved Paniolo Greens and the location is excellent.

You are close

to Waimea and all the great things there like the Parker Ranch, some excellent restaurants and shopping.

Or you can go down the hill to Waikoloa and the beaches, or north to Hawi.

There are so many wonderful options on the Big Island, you will find more that you can see in a week or two.

http://www.konaweb.com/#WEBCAM has a great amount of current info, plus you can get your sunshine fix from the camera pointing out towards the bay on Alii Drive.:whoopie:

Also http://www.mapsbeachestours.com/ has some great maps and Ideas.

Be sure to get the Big Island Revealed,

We found it was packed with great info.

Enjoy your anniversary, :clap:

Just returned from the "Greens" in november.There is a great little restuarant in the Waikoloa beach golf clubhouse. two chefs purchased the place and have a wonderful "tasting" dinner menu. Also we were advised to go to the Hapuna Prince Hotel , they have a wonderful seafood grill on a terrace and we had a great anniversary dinner there under the stars. In February i aslo believe you will be able to see the Southern Cross in the sky. Treat yourself and go on one of the tours to Mona Keas sunset there you will also be able to do some stargazing :banana: :wave: :whoopie:
 
One of my favorite restaurants is Roy's in Waikoloa. My mouth is drooling for Mahi Mahi topped with macademia nuts and their sensational chocolate lava cake! We'll be on the BI in July. :whoopie:
 
Re Roy's In Waikoloa --our opinion

We spent one night at Paniolo Greens while between islands, and we ate at the Waikoloa Roy's. It was incredibly noisy--we couldn't hear each other. We love Roy's on Kauai and in lower Manhattan and this just did not compare ambience-wise. The food was still great, though.

However, we went early (about 6) because our teenage son was hungry! (starving) If you want to go there for a romantic dinner, go after 7:30 when most of the families with small children are gone. It might be quieter then.

I wish I could give you a better suggestion, but we usually are dining somehwere in Kona or at the Volcano Lodge (now there is a wonderful romantic, fantastic meal).

Have you ever eaten at the Kilauea Lodge in Volcano? Now that is a wonderful restaurant!

Our favorite restaurant for sunsets is Huggo's in Kona. We ate at the Canoe House on this last trip and they do a fantastic sunset as well (very pricey though).

I've also been to the Waikoloa Roy's and the Roy's at Poipu. I prefer the Roy's at Waikoloa. I didn't care for the location at Poipu. To each his own! :D
 
We prefer the "Mom and Pop" and Locals Restaurants over franchises while in Hawaii. I find the food is more reasonable and the local flavor is why I go to Hawaii.
 
thanx everybody

Thank you all for your suggestions. Please keep them coming especially romantic places to eat and see any where on the island-- also will be on kauai the next week of feb. so if you have any ideas on anything feel free to add them and again thanx, 5- more weeks :whoopie:
 
Places to eat

I have always found Jamison's in Kona to be a nice place albeit pricey
 
Daniel Thiebaut's

Out of all the great places we have eaten in our travels, Daniel Theibaut's is the best.:whoopie:

Their venue is odd, but the food is sooo good. We used to think that "A Pacific Cafe" on Kauai was the greatest ( they have since closed) until we ate at Theibout's.

If you can get one of these discount certificates, do, and have a great meal.

jmho, Greg

Thanx

Thanx everyone for ideas and info-please feel free to add anything on suggestions on big island and kauai,restaurants and things to do. 4 weeks to go!!!!!!!
 
Our experience at Thibaut's was different. The food was pretty good but way overpriced. Service was awful. The place is a dump. We sat by a drafty window that was held shut by a bread wrapper tie.

For lunch, do this. Drive down to the Hilton. Bear right past the Waikaloa Bay Club. Continue to the end of the road and park at the golf course clubhouse. There is a restaurant inside. Prices are reasonable and the portions are very large.
 
The Beach House in Poipu on Kauai is a wonderfully romantic restaurant.
Go early so you can catch the sunset.
 
3-weeks to go

Keeping them coming people, getting excited, just bought her a ten year anniversary ring, and trying to figure out if para sailing and whale watching is (better and or cheaper on kauai or big Island)
 
For Kauai, I recommend Cafe Hanalei at the Princeville Resort. It's pricey, but the view is fabulous. I thought that it was the most romantic restaurant I've every had the pleasure of eating in. Fabulous Sunday brunch.
