Fantasy Island FOR GOLF LOVERS AND BLISSEDOUT PLEASURE SEEKERS, THE FOUR SEASONS RESORT HUALALAI IS A DREAM COME TRUE THAT JUST GOT DREAMIER

HALE MEANS "HOUSE" in Hawaiian, but it implies more than a roof over your head. The word (pronounced hah-lay) carries a deeper sense of island welcome, with the promise of warm greetings and generous offerings of food and drink. What it doesn't guarantee is help with your swing.

For that, there is only one hale, at Four Seasons Resort Hualalai, on the Big Island's Kona-Kohala coast. You may recognize the property from its annual star turn as the host of the Mitsubishi Electric Championship, which kick-starts the Champions Tour calendar. On TV, the setting makes tropical postcard-all emerald greens and fairways against an ocean backdrop fringed by swaying palms and coal-black lava fields. The sight is even more spectacular in person.
