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.

« I had a wonderful stay here! The location is perfect, right by a peaceful beach that made the whole experience incredibly relaxing. I stayed in the bungalows, which were amazing—spacious, comfortable, and not crowded at all. The atmosphere felt private and serene. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Their hospitality truly made the stay special. Overall, this is the ideal place if you’re looking for relaxation, great service, and a beautiful setting. »
