A Wonderful Vacation Home Base
It's the small things that count. Whether the family is just beginning, all grown up or at any stage in between, Four Seasons Resort Lāna‘i, The Lodge at Koele is a wonderful home base. Staff go out of their way to give a special aloha to keiki (younger guests), and the resourceful Concierge is always close at hand – to make reservations for a family dinner, offer suggestions for tomorrow's outing or help arrange a babysitter. Children under 18 can share parents' rooms at no extra charge, and the complimentary children’s program is the perfect addition to a relaxing family escape.
