This exotic island from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “South Pacific” suggests the idea of romance more almost any other location—“Bali Hai”. Ever since the classic 1958 movie of the same name was filmed on the Hawaiian Island of Kauai, the Garden Isle has grown to be synonymous with the idea of dreamy tropical paradise ripened with romance, innocence and happiness.
The true Hawaiian name for this renowned cinematic background is Mount Makana, on Kauai’s north coast. Its magnificent profile marks the start of the mystical Na Pali Coast, which provides an interesting setting for romantic sunset cruises, exciting helicopter flights, and spectacular hiking adventures.
Let your love thrive on Kauai and choose from two romantic Hawaii luaus with Polynesian extravaganzas and three romantic sunset cocktail or dinner cruises.
Journey through the beautiful Na Pali coast on board the 65-foot power catamaran “HoloHolo”, experience a Kauai sunset dinner sail, one of the most romantic getaways. Help yourself to a scrumptious light meal, soft drinks, beer, wine and champagne as the sun sets over the tropical horizon.
Or take a romantic sunset dinner cruise through Na Pali’s stunning coast that combines windward sailing, beer, wine and cocktails, and a tasty buffet dinner and a brilliant sunset at sea with Captain Andy.
You can also select another little romantic sunset getaway cocktail cruise through Kauai’s beautiful Southern Coast where you will be treated to live Hawaiian music that floats over you like the trade winds as you enjoy pupus (appetizers), “sneaky tikis”, beer and wine… and each other.
Smith’s Tropical Paradise Luau incorporates a spectacular ceremony in a torch-lit Lagoon Amphitheater along the famous Wailua River—certainly a very nice place to go on romantic couples getaways! Commencing with the cermemonial blowing of the conch shell and torch lighting, the Luau ceremony is a hypnotic presentation. Visitors are encouraged to gather around for the traditional Hawaiian Imu Ceremony as the Kalua Puaa (roast pork) is uncovered from the underground oven (imu).
Grand Hyatt Kauai Luau, together with Tihati’s Havaiki Nui Polynesian presentation, make for an evening you’ll always remember. Havaiki Nui is also known as the great land of promise. Hence, these people of the sea migrated and settled throughout the Pacific establishing what we know today as Polynesia – Tahiti, Samoa, Hawaii and the many people of the Pacific. Take this exhilarating journey of Polynesia through chant, song and dance.
Kauai is the perfect spot to bring your romance to center stage in an exotic, tropical setting because of its fifty miles of white sand beaches for swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing and romantic walks with loved ones.
