My mom and I had such a wonderful time at the Manoa Resort. The staff was incredibly friendly, and wanted to point out Jose, the bartender, who made us feel right at home. He was so welcoming and kind, which made our trip even more memorable. We highly recommend this resort and will be sharing our experience with friends and family. I will definitely be back in the near future.
