Re: FS Hualalai -- During high season, even with the fee we were seeing renters being refused service at the restaurants and bars in the evening. I've lost track of the various lawsuits and I've long s-listed this FS after several disastrous Thanksgiving stays. This FS might still be very good during low seasons but it *sucks* during the high (Cisco) season. If you rent one of the condos you appear to be treated as if you do not exist. Also, but off topic, the place needs a serious renovation to justify its >$1000/night rooms.
