Tropical Flower Delivery!

Its always so nice when you receive a surprise bundle of flowers! But get a look at what your special arrangement can look like in Poipu. This weekend I was brought to tears when this arrived at Whalers Cove! Yellow is my favorite color, and the combination of Roses and orchids with exotics is perfection! Mahalo for making me feel so special!

Not all gorgeous weather is sunny orange. These super low hanging clouds over the mountain range behind Whalers Cove are also postcard perfect!

Now that’s an Avocado!!

Yumm Yumm Yumm! Mahalo to the front desk agent at Whalers Cove for giving us this amazing avocado! We will be eating it for a week. Thought you could get a perspective of the size of this thing, when we paired it next to a juicy ripe pineapple. The Pineapple is one of the large ones!

This is paradise!

Impossible! 3 Hibiscus Blossoms in one!

I have lived in Hawaii for over 30 years and have never seen 3 blossoms in 1 shoot!

Isn't this color amazing too! So elegant!

Winter Mai Tai Sunset!

I think it’s safe to say that literally everyone who visits Whalers Cove quickly finds out the absolute best thing to do! We are spoiled in the winter time, because every single night we get to watch that big bright ball sink into the ocean! Never get tired of this!

Cheers!

Stand Up Paddle at Whalers Cove

Stand up paddle is the new “old” craze in ocean sports. The revival of this historic Hawaiian sport is popular with the young and the young at heart! This guy was seen coming into Whalers Cove right around sunset. He says winter is the best time to enjoy stand up paddle. The waves are calmer on the south shore and makes for perfect conditions. Walk on Water!!!

Happy New Year! Welcome 2012!

The fireworks in Poipu were awesome! We stood out on the pool deck at Whalers Cove with a few other guests and enjoyed our private viewing of the light show. It was so nice to see the ocean light up with all the colors from the fire works! We also discovered a rare guest in the orchid garden. By far the largest orchid we’ve ever seen, and it has a slight fragrance. This is rare for most orchids don’t have a fragrance. This big beauty only blooms once per year!

New Pool Furniture – Ahhhhhh!

Whalers Cove just installed brand new furniture on the Ocean Front pool deck. Bring your water and a good book, this is where you want to be for a quiet afternoon, eh?
