They do have location, location, location going for them. But when it comes to room size (AKL and GC standard rooms are barely larger than WDW's moderates), quality of furnishings and availability of services (24-hr Room Service, etc) they just don't measure up to really top notch resorts. Aulaini deserves a high ranking. Not so sure about the others.

    Not to mention "The Breakers". I have been there several times and I wouldn't bring my kids there.

    My personal favs:
    * Marriott's Kauai Beach Club
    * Westin Kierland Resort (Scottsdale)
    * Terranea Resort (Palos Verdes, CA)
    * JW Marriott Grand Lakes (Orlando)
