Lanai is perfectly suited for those seeking luxury and romance in simple, unspoiled surroundings. The island still offers the feel of old Hawaii, free from traffic, crowds, shopping malls, and sightseeing. You can spend your vacation for various activities such as playing golf, rent a Jeep and explore the remote beaches, snorkel or scuba.
For several years, almost all of Lanai was dedicated to growing Hawaii's most popular export, pineapples. Also, because of the island's tiny size ( only 18 miles wide by 13 miles long ), Lanai is frequently overlooked for larger tourist hotspots like Honolulu and Waikiki.
