AM good to see you back on here. But it's not always about the real estate value!
I prefer Grand Hyatt Kauai over Kea Lani without question. I remember when I first walked into the Kea Lani and was walking down the hall to my room on that orange/brown carpet and thinking to myself I've seen much nicer resorts in Mexico. The grounds at Kea Lani aren't anything to write home about. Polo Beach is easily the best part of this hotel.
