Here are our 3 favorite places: 1) The Gallery Restaurant - 1.7 miles away, at Frances I'i Brown Championship Course Clubhouse    This open-air restaurant overlooks the resort's golf courses and the ocean. The menu features Hawaiian Regional and American cuisines with distinctive Mediterranean twists: six-peppered ahi (sashimi- style ahi on a bed of Japanese cucumbers with Pommery mustard sauce) and interesting pastas, such as ratatouille ravioli with pesto sauce.    You can choose fresh fish prepared different ways, for example, baked in a macadamia-nut crust with lobster brandy sauce. The wine list has a great selection of California vintages. 2) The Orchid Court - located 2.5 miles away, at Fairmont Orchid    This restaurant is one of Big Island's favorite breakfast places.

I'i Brown created a golf course that is modern and unmistakenly Hawaiian at the same time. The course was built on the land that once belonged to Hawaiian royalty and still contains some archeological sites and ancient fishpond.    This place is uncommonly beautiful and full of contrasts - black lava, blue ocean, green faiways and tree-lined lagoons. In fact, Francis H. I'i Brown Course was named "one of the most beautiful seaside golf courses in the world" by Golf Magazine.    The course is challenging for both amateurs and pros. It consists of two 18-hole complexes, The South and North Course. The South Course is built on rugged lava and surrounded by mountain and ocean views. The North Course has many mesquite trees and rolling terrain. Herds of feral goats frequent both courses, moving from hole to hole throughout the day. Other facilities include: Fantastic deep-see fishing and scuba over colorful reefs Historic royal fishponds nearby Scenic jogging trails 6 tennis courts Concierge Grocery delivery Guest charging privileges at select resort restaurants Resort shuttle service Dry cleaning service Free parking	Mauna Lani Point: Resort grounds: Building: Living room: Kitchen: Master bedroom: Second bedroom: Lanai: Path to the ocean: Beach nearby: Golf:
