Especially when it comes to Globalist recognition, concerns over having parking lot rooms, etc. Was hoping to treat my P2 to a really nice vacation to celebration a special occasion for her, mixing this and some time in Maui, but I'm starting to second guess. Am I unreasonably on the edge?
It's still a great resort, and one of the (if not the) best Hyatts in Hawaii. If you're thinking of going to Hawaii and want to go to Kauai (and why wouldn't you), the Grand Hyatt is the best Hyatt option. Also, as a Globalist, I don't think you should be too concerned about not getting a good room...just don't settle for the first room provided if it's not what you want. A couple weeks ago, my Globalist brother got an ocean view Poipu wing room using standard points on the first try, no push back necessary.
