My husband and I stayed here 1/18-1/22. This place is beautiful! The views from here are amazing. This place is perfect to stay at when visiting the Hilo side. Garry and his family are so nice and make you feel so welcome. We loved it! Oh, and the bed was the most comfortable I have stayed in in a while!

Lai Nani offers an extremely special Big Island experience! With the exquisite grounds, breathtaking views, exceptional hospitality from Gary and his staff, the property's nearby location to Hilo and town, the natural wonder of the amazing water fall, botanical gardens and zip line virtually across the street and let's not forget the 5 Star room and amenities you can't go wrong staying at this beautiful property! My husband, myself and our two young (3 and 1 year old) children stayed at Lai Nani for 7 nights (1/10/12-1/17/12). It was wonderful not worrying about disrupting the neighbors with the sound of little feet running around. It was like being at our own home, but better! Gary and his staff always went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and were taken care of. Stay here and you will NOT be disappointed!

Hidden Gem of a resort

The brochures of this resort did not do it justice. The owner Gary, and his son Cory were more like friends you have known for years instead of vacation hosts. They are so helpful, they don't leave you wandering around the town looking for sightseeing trips. It was an experience which opened your senses, to the smells of the flowers, the sounds of the ocean, and the Aloha spirit. Thank you both for a wonderful time.

We newly weds enjoyed our stay at the Lai Nani. It was like our own personal resort. The views were amazing. Gary and Cory made sure we enjoyed our stay. Gary told us about the Zip Lining across the street and called them up for us to get a discount! That was one of the highlights of our stay. The pool and hot tub were so nice and relaxing. We would stay here again when visiting the Big Island.

This review is one year late -- but better late than never! I stayed at Garry's amazing Ocean Front Estate in August 2010. This was me and my girlfriend's first visit to the Big Island and we wanted it to be very special. The pictures on this listing really do not do it justice as everything about the place is really magical. Garry is also an awesome host! He was kind enough to cook us dinner one night, and we had some of the most interesting and hilarious conversations I've ever had. Having dinner with Garry was one of my fondest memories during my stay on the Big Island -- as he really embodies the aloha spirit and the local friendliess. I will return one day! Highly recommended.

Lai Nani is breath taking!!! We were greeted by Garry, his son Cory, and Ice (Cory's dog), and felt at home right away! There is no other place like this!! Hospitality was the absolute best!! There was not one thing we needed that was not provided!! They had a beautiful wedding the day we arrived; therefore, they invited us to have dinner with everyone and join in on the fun!! We found out the true meaning of the Aloha spirit! We definitely felt very welcome!!! The views at this place are gorgeous and the sunrises are spectacular!!! The rooms were top notch and very clean!! This is a Must if you are staying on the Hilo side of the Big island!! A definite 5 star resort!! Thank you Garry, Cory, and Ice!!! For a getaway we will never forget!! Aloha

Words Only Can't Express How Beautiful La`i Nani Resort Is !!! You Have to Experience It!!!!!!!!!

I just got back home and all I can do is talk about how beautiful La`i Nani Resort is. We were there for 3 days and the hospitality that Garry Hajek and his staff offered is outstanding! The resort is right up there with any 5 Star Resort or Estate. The ocean view in the early morning hours as the sun rises is breath taking. The property is absolutely beautiful, with lots of privacy. Garry is very knowledgable about the Island and offered many great locations to see and visit. The recommendations to those who are thinking about staying at La`i Nani Resort would be, don't wast your time on hotels and large resorts, there is nothing that can compare to La`i Nani Resort!!! I have lived in Hawaii for 40 years and have stayed at many resorts on the Island of Hawaii and there is nothing that La`i Nani Resort does not have to make your visit a memorable one. They are the BEST!!!!!!!!!

When visiting the big Island, staying at L'ai Nani is an absolute must. It is perfectly situated so that you can tour the whole island in one day and, when you do, you will realize that no other place like it exists. It is one of a kind as is the owner, Garry, who will go out of his way to make sure your stay is perfect. He has created an unforgettable oasis of warmth and beauty just a short drive north of Hilo. The three Bungalows provide all the comforts of home while including a pool, hot tub and whales in the winter months. We stayed two weeks and the time simply flew by. We were sad to leave Garry, his son Cory, and his dog Ice and their paradise called L'ai Nani. Aloha to all of you and, again, Maholo!

Truly Paradise

This property is truly paradise. We felt at peace the minute we arrived. We were greeted by Garry and his son and made to feel extremely welcome. I cannot say how beautiful the views were and the pictures do not do it justice. The grounds were immaculate and the bungalows were very clean. We greeted each morning in the oceanfront gazebo where we saw some beautiful sunrises. The estate is close to many of the attractions that are on the Hilo side. Garry was very helpful in steering us to the great activities available. He also had a barbecue for us and another guest. We all contributed side dishes and it was great fun. This place makes you feel like you are to only people there. With only three bungalows you don't have the crowds and noise, except nature, that you have in big resorts. We stayed from June 22-29 and will definitely go back to this beautiful paradise. Thanks Garry for sharing your wonderful place and the hospitality.
