Families Spend Quality Time, Save Money and Collect Memories on the Island of Lana'i
The Manele Bay Hotel Offers a Free Second Room, Children's Program, and Meals

LANA'I, Hawaii, February 14, 2002 - The family vacation poses the annual questions of where to go and what to do. Come to our island and experience a family-friendly theme park 4 million years in the making, without the long lines. It's all about the natural beauty of the outdoors, and myriad activities to keep the little ones, and adults, intrigued. 

Play on the sandy beach, snorkel in the marine preserve, explore tidal pools, watch for spinner dolphins to arrive, or enjoy an ocean-side massage. Try your hand at archery and sporting clays, take a golf or tennis lesson, ride horses through the upcountry, mountain-bike or hike a historic trail, or sit on the porch and talk with each other as the trade winds drift through the giant pines and palms of this gentle island.
