Famous for its beautiful landscape, this archipelago has waterfalls, lush forests, golden sands and snow-capped mountains. There’s and adventure, history and culture on tap if you want it, but these hotels give you the chance to just kick back and enjoy your own flower-scented slice of Eden.

Palms at Wailea Maui by Outrigger, Wailea, Maui
—————————————————-
The second largest Hawaiian island is famous for its sightings of migrating humpback whales. This Mediterranean-style complex has a large, whale-shaped pool among lush tropical gardens. You can choose from a number of one or two-bed condos, and both garden and ocean-view villas have patios with barbeque grills where you can soak up the flower-scented surroundings. Palms at Wailea Maui is just half a mile from Mokapu and Wailea Beaches, and the Kula Botanical Gardens are well worth a visit.

Four Seasons Resort, Lanai
——————————-
Owned by billionaire Larry Ellison, Lanai is less developed than other islands in the archipelago, which makes for unspoilt exploring. The dreamy Four Seasons Resort sits in one of its prime locations: the white sands of Hulopoe Beach, which is Hawaii’s smallest public beach. Beautiful botanical gardens surround pavilion-style buildings, with secluded areas for lounging, pools and hot tubs. With excellent family activities and kids club, this is an ocean-side paradise for all the family.
