That is a tough one to answer. I stayed at the Hyatt in Maui and LOVED IT! The hotel is so beautiful!! I also stayed at the Hilton Waikola Village on the Big Island. That hotel is beautiful too. They have a dolphin pool and you might have a chance to swim with them. They had a few pools and they have a boat or monorail to take you from one end of the property to the other.There is a lot of sighseeing on Maui as well as a ton of places to eat. The Big Island on the other hand is much more quieter and less places to eat outside the hotel.
It depends on what you are looking to do on the island itself.

I know 2 couples who stayed at the 4 Seasons on the big island and it was the highlight of their trip.

I stayed at the Hyatt in Kaui and Maui. I loved them both! But, I was blown away from the one in Kaui.

We stayed at the Four seasons in Maui and absolutely loved every minute of it. They treated us like royalty

We stayed at the Grand Wailea in Maui and it was so amazing that we didn't want to leave for Kauai - it's incredible- rooms, service, the spa!!! If I go back to Hawaii, I will only go there. You can check out their website at www.grandwailea.com - here are some photos of the view from our room at sunset, the lobby, the adult pool and the fountains. Words cannot even begin to describe it!

Re: Hawaii Honeymoon question.. What places did you stay at that blew you away....
Not for our HM but we stayed at the Maui Hyatt this Feb. Very nice but not blown away..but the price was very reasonable considering it was Maui. If I was paying the retail price, I would have been very unhappy.Ive heard mixed reviews on the Four Seasons..some people tell me its amazing, others have been disappointed. Ive heard nothing but raves about the Grand Wailea. When I went, the rates for both of these places was in the $500/night range which would have been a waste for us since we wanted to have plenty of cash to blow on the island. And trust me, there are plenty of thigns to spend money on
Have you checked some of the hotel rating sites on the web...you can usually get some good insights from them.
Hope that helps :D

Hyatt in KauaiGrand Wailea in Maui
Loved both!
I hear amazing things about 4Seasons on the Big Island. The Grand Wailea is next door to the 4 Seasons in Maui and it looked nice just not my style.

We stayed at the Princeville in Kauai which was absolutely beautiful. In Maui, we stayed at the Kapalua Bay which is a beautiful resort but far away from everthing else. You would definitely need a car. In Oahu, we stayed at the Pink hotel ( i forget the name...but everything is pink including the champagne.) It was beautiful and fun.

In Maui we stayed at the Renaissance in Wailea... it was beautiful, but honestly we were not in the hotel AT ALL. we were out and about doing stuff everyday. we came in late at night and left early in the AM. So IMHO don't go too crazy on your Maui hotel. There is so much to do you won't be in it!And on the Big Island we went to the Four Seasons... um, talk about blowing you away! This place was a step below heaven on earth The Four Seasons had accomidations unlike anything. The service was amazing and this is truly the place to relax and let the hotel do all the work. It was absolutely incredible.
And even though you have a place on Kauai- The Princeville was absolutely incredible. This place is also another step below heaven. the views were the most extraordinary sights. I can't even describe what it's like seeing them in person!

Re: Hawaii Honeymoon question.. What places did you stay at that blew you away....
We stayed at the Fairmont Kea Lani-which is right next to the Four Seasons and Grand Wailea in Maui. It definitely blew us away--gorgeous hotel, all rooms (I think) were suites, huge bathroom, balcony, etc. The little details stand out to me though, like the staff bringing you fresh pineapple and cool minty towels while you're sitting by the pool.When we were in Kauai, we stayed at the Hyatt, which we also loved, by the way. I'm sure you will be happy with whatever hotels you choose. Hawaii in itself is just so amazing!
