Private beach, free loungers. Food in restaurant very good. Beds could be softer.

Lani Kai Beachfront Resort
Room, staff and beach were terrific. Now to the negatives. The hotel charges $20 a day for guests to park which in itself is offensive. The general public (non guests) can park in the hotel parking lot as well for $20. So non guests pay the same amount to park as guests and take up parking spaces ...
