We found a monk in the forest of Rudraksha and chatted
with him on history of Monastery.

- Adventurers11805Charlotte, NC229 contributionsWe had a lovely time at the Smith luau. We arrived about 5:10 and enjoyed the tram tour and then we walked the beautiful grounds and took numerous photos. The imu ceremofny was educational and fun. The feast of food was very delicious. Every item that we tried was great but I'll give a shout out to the kahlua pork, the mahi mahi baked with pineapple, the cucumber salad & macaroni salad. The mai tais were tasty too. Entertainment during the feast was wonderful. The staff was attentive & friendly.
The show started at 8 and was awesome. The dancers were highly trained & professional. Wife especially loved the expressionism of the hula dancers and I especially loved the tahitian dancing. It was all beautiful. The band & singers were great and the fire performers were both frightening and amazing. I highly recommend this luau. Its authentic and not touristy. Best one that we ever experienced.Written October 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ORMumLake Oswego, OR153 contributionsThe Kadavul temple is a part of the Kauai Hindu monastery. It is beautiful, and is close to the Rudraksha forest. I recommend spending at least 2-3 hours here so you can enjoy the morning puja, the library and gift shop, the tour to the temple and the surrounding area of the monastery.Written March 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ccsfamilyGeneva, IL354 contributionsWe stayed in a condo unit with a lovely view of the beach and ocean at La Nani. We would highly recommend this area. The beach is a courser sand, looks more like bird seed. It is a nice beach to walk along, see sunrises and sunsets, wade in the water and enjoy the sunshine. We saw some people snorkeling and some people surfing. Best part for us was the proximity to the condo where we stayed which made it perfect for us!Written October 24, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- KittyGrandma15Los Angeles42 contributionsWe attended 5 PM Mass on a Saturday. The church is lovely, peaceful and almost gives the impression that you are out of doors, because of all the glass. Light and airy. We were welcomed with leis and recognized as visitors, the homily was good and interesting, the lectors did a great job, and the congregation all sang. My special takeaway and food for thought: "We trust Uber to get us where we are going, we trust the doctor when he gives us a prescription, so why do we hesitate to trust God?" A simple concept, but uniquely expressed. Mahalo.Written November 12, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
