Big Island, Hawaii: $1,000 resort credit at Four Seasons

One of the Big Island’s most envied luxury properties is about to show off its new $40-million face-lift. Renovations at the Four Seasons Resort Hualālai at Historic Ka’upulehu, which have been ongoing for the last 15 months and will be unveiled Aug. 4, include 20 new suites, a spa expansion, an expansion to the oceanfront pool deck and more shops.

In apparent efforts to encourage you to visit their upgraded digs, the five-diamond resort on the north Kona Coast is offering a substantial credit. It doesn’t quite transform a luxury stay into a budget stay, but it may make a slice of paradise within closer reach for those who are high-end-vacation shopping. (By the way, in case you missed it, the Four Seasons boasts the highest customer satisfaction among hotel chains, according to a recent survey.)

Deal: Stay at this Four Seasons this summer and receive a $1,000 resort credit, which you can use toward nearly anything at the resort during your stay, including spa treatments, meals, activities, golf and paddle-board lessons.

But the major advantage of the deal is this: You can use the credit toward your room itself. Unfortunately, for those of us who like a good something-for-nearly-nothing promotion, you can’t use this credit for the garden-view rooms, which are the lowest-price tier at the resort, starting at $595 per night (pre-tax). It’d be great to take $1,000 off that four-night bill. Oh well, the credit offer is good for the golf ocean-view rooms, which start at $725 per night (pre-tax), as well as for the more expensive rooms.

When: Available for four-night minimum stays now through Sept. 1, 2009.
