Behold... Puu Pehe, known as “Sweetheart Rock”.

This is Lanai’s most notable landmark and the setting for one of Hawaii’s epic legends.
Story goes a hottie princess from Maui was "captured" by a young warrior from Lanai. He made her his wife and he was so smitten with her beauty and... apparently so insecure that he was afraid to let other men see her so kept her in a sea cave near the rock when he was away. One day the weather suddenly changes, the surf slams the area, and... yup, one less princess. The warrior rushed back to the cave, but it was too late, he climbed the steep rock where he buried her in a tomb and then overcome with grief leapt to his death.

Moral of story might be... um, don't abduct women and lock them in caves.

'We upgraded to one of the larger "seaview" rooms, and are glad we did. The small rooms are small, especially for two people. Our larger room featured a victorian styled bed, and a large balcony with an umimpeded view of the sea. The room did have a funny smell, ut once we were in the room a few minutes we didn't notice this, there was a loud garbage pick-up at 6 am daily - earplugs remedied this small problem. I recommend the "Makai Room" if it's available. The location is great for visiting...
