For Hawaii residents, a resort staycation can be a short drive or a quick interisland flight away. Each island has its own style, from Oahu's calm Ko Olina lagoons and wild North Shore to Maui's pool-filled Wailea resorts, the Big Island's sunny Kohala Coast, and Kauai's green cliffs. Many resorts add big pools, spas, golf, and beachfront dining, and some offer kamaʻāina rates for local residents. It is an easy way to see your own islands with fresh eyes.
Hawaii's best resorts spread across four islands, and each one gives a different kind of staycation, from family lagoons to quiet cliffside retreats.
Oahu mixes resort lagoons at Ko Olina on the west side with the surf and open space of the North Shore, both an easy drive from Honolulu.
On Oahu's west side, Four Seasons Ko Olina has a private white-sand lagoon and the Naupaka Spa & Wellness Center, about 30 miles from Waikīkī.
Turtle Bay has welcomed guests on Oahu's North Shore since 1972, with a lobby of tall windows that look out over the coast.
Wailea and Kapalua hold some of Maui's biggest resort pools, golf courses, and spas, with calm beaches and long sunset views.
Grand Wailea on Maui's south coast lists nine pools, a river, and waterslides, a favorite for families who want a full resort day.
On the Kapalua coast, The Ritz-Carlton Maui has a 10,000-square-foot pool and access to two 18-hole golf courses.
The sunny Kohala Coast has classic beachfront resorts with large pools, golf, and quiet bays for snorkeling.
Fairmont Orchid spreads across 32 acres on the Kohala Coast, with a 10,000-square-foot pool and six restaurants.
Opened in 1965, Mauna Kea Beach Hotel fronts Kaunaʻoa Bay with a midcentury modern design and a wide crescent beach.
Kauai's resorts range from cliff-top stays above Hanalei Bay on the north shore to sunny Poʻipū on the south shore.
1 Hotel Hanalei Bay sits on the cliffs above Hanalei Bay on Kauai's north shore and is built with reclaimed and local materials.
Kōloa Landing on Kauai's sunny south shore covers 25 acres with a 350,000-gallon saltwater pool and three lagoons.
