The Four Seasons Resort at Hualalai was rated the Top Resort Hotel in Hawaii by readers in Travel + Leisure magazine’s 2014 World’s Best Awards.

The Four Seasons Resort also jumped from 68th on the Top 100 list of resort hotels around the world to the 22nd spot.

The Four Seasons was given a 94.96 rating by readers and was the only Big Island hotel rated among the international Top 100. The Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea, and the Halekulani, Oahu, were the only others on the Top 100 list.

The ratings are determined by the magazine’s readers nationwide.

Also rated among The Big Island’s Top 25 were the Maunai Lani Bay Hotel and Bungalows, the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel and the Fairmont Orchid.

It was the fifth consecutive year that the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel was selected one of Hawaii’s top resorts, said manager Phyllis Branco. “Our team is dedicated to providing the very best in service, so we are thrilled to see their efforts recognized in this prestigious survey.”
