Everyone’s budget is so different. Off the Hook has a lot of good options (which includes pool side), the Malasadas for breakfast from the Olelo room, Ulu cafe, mamas fish shack….
We always get a room with a kitchen and go to Foodland Farms to get food while there as a money saver.
We also like Ama Ama, Mina’s at 4 Season’s, and Longhi’s at Marriott.
The Mai Thai at Moneky Pod was good, but it very crowded and my wife’s food was undercooked.
We also are just fine with the food at ABC store.
