What was once a quiet pineapple plantation has now become a vibrant island of Art and Culture. The unique Lanai Visiting Artists Program allows resort guests and the island community a rare opportunity to mingle with talent from around the world. Famous musicians, writers, filmmakers and the finest culinary artists have been coming to Lanai since 1992 to participate in this program. In intimate settings at The Lodge at Koele and the Four Seasons Resort Lana'i at Manele Bay, these visiting artists showcase their talents and share their passions with relatively small audiences. During the summer months, visiting chefs offer free cooking demonstrations. Sunday dinners are offered after each presentation. |

The Experience at Koele is an 18-hole championship course designed by legends Greg Norman and Ted Robinson. Here each and every hole is graced with awe-inspiring vistas, from mountain ravines to Pacific expanses to the neighboring Maui and Molokai across the channel. This dramatic course is indeed a one-of-a-kind experience. Along the southern coast, Jack Nicklaus created one of his most famous masterpieces, The Challenge at Manele golf course. Set on the cliffs above Hulopoe Bay, this target-style course roams across several hundred acres of natural lava outcroppings, using plunging ravines, native kiawe, and trees as natural hazards. Both courses consistently rank among the best in the world by leading publications and travel guides. |
