The five-pearl Four Seasons Resort Lanai occupies an exclusive enclave on the tiny island of Lanai. A 45-minute ferry ride from Maui, Lanai feels worlds away from civilization, and the Four Seasons entices guests with 213 impeccably decorated rooms and a bevy of fantastic amenities. Two incredible lagoon-style pools overlook Hulopoe Bay, and the hotel’s beach is home to a protected marine reserve. Nobu and Malibu Farm are two of the noteworthy dinging options here, and the on-site Jack Nicklaus-designed Manele Golf Course is often considered one of the best in Hawaii. The atmosphere here is refined yet relaxed, though families may prefer the more kid-friendly Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea.

A 115-unit south shore condo fronting Poipu Beach with limited service and varying decor, though plenty of open space, the Castle Kiahuna offers a similar experience to Outrigger Kiahuna, which is part of the same Kaihuna Plantation; both have access to the pool, golf, and tennis across the street, but service here doesn't quite match that at the Outrigger.

The White Sands is a three-building hotel complex offering basic accommodations in a central location that is two blocks from Waikiki Beach. Originally built in the 1950s, it is a solid option for budget travelers looking to be in the center of the action, as it is near shops and Waikiki's booming nightlife. The White Sands is a value property that caters to an array of travelers on a budget, including families and pet owners. There's an outdoor pool with a decent-size deck, but both can get crowded in the summer months. Also, some guests may feel inconvenienced that Wi-Fi is only available at the pool or in the lobby (and for a fee).
