If you want nice ocean views and short walks to rooms, consider the two options at the Mauna Kea resort- the Mauna Kea Beach hotel or Hapuna Beach hotel. Both have rooms with great ocean views if that is what you are after. Also, the walk to the beaches are only a couple of minutes from most of the rooms at either hotel; and, they are great beaches. You can also rent many nice homes at the resort for about the same price as a room at either hotel. I don't know if the two night stay comes into play with the home rentals, but you are going to be there during the low season, so a two night deal might be had. Something to consider......
