A delightfully old-fashioned complex on the water's edge, Hale Kai abounds in Hawaiian accents, from the tropical room decor to the lava-rock exterior. Sit on your lanai and watch the sunset unfold over the neighboring islands - in winter, humpback whales are a frequent sight too.Condo complexes can be impersonal but the friendly staff here break the mold. Just about everything is reminiscent of an earlier day, to a Hawaii before the mega-resorts moved in. The place hugs the ocean, with the pool so close to the shoreline it gets a splash of salt water. No air-con, but the louvered windows do a good job catching the sea breezes. While the decor varies from unit to unit, it follows a Hawaiian scheme of rattan, wicker and floral fabrics. There are no cramped studios here - every unit has a living room separate from the bedroom. If you've got a group, go for the three-bedroom corner unit, which has a cool loft, wraparound ocean-view windows and all the character of a Hawaiian beach-house.

A one-of-a-kind Hawaiian experience awaits just up the road at the Masters of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar Concert Series. This cultural gem, held Wednesdays in Napili, is hosted by Grammy award-winner George Kahumoku Jr, who interweaves the music with stories about growing up in an old-style Hawaiian village. Guest performers include some of Hawaii's top slack key guitarists and the intimate setting makes it feel like a family jam session.
