It's Always Summer in Hawaii

September 10, 2024

Waikiki | Honolulu, Oahu

Extend that Easy Summertime Feeling in Hawaii

Summer might be officially over soon, but you can keep that vacation vibe alive in Hawaii. Choose from six main islands, each offering a gorgeous, laid-back lifestyle.

Maui Coastline | The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua

Maui is eager to welcome visitors. While the 2023 Lahaina fire has left a small portion of the island off-limits, Wailea, Hana, and other five-star spots remain unharmed and fully operational. With fewer crowds, it’s a perfect time to support the island we all love. Come for the beaches, the golf, the whale watching, and the sunrise from Haleakala’s peak, knowing that your travel dollars are helping to rebuild and support the local community.

Kauai Coastline | Four Seasons Resort Lanai

If you need a complete escape, head to either Lanai or Kauai, both renowned for their privacy and luxury, as well as their über-chill lifestyle and über-chic hotels. Golfers can book tee times on Lanai’s incredible Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course. In Kauai, kayak along the serene Wailua River or take a helicopter tour to fully appreciate the island's breathtaking beauty from above, including the stunning Nā Pali Coast and the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific' in Waimea.

Families and adventure-seeking travelers might consider Hawaii Island (better known as the Big Island) to explore the wild wonders of Volcanoes National Park – from the lush jungle that’s grown around the lava tube walks to eerie hikes up black volcanic scree to see the bubbling crater below. After your adventures, unwind at the newly opened Rosewood beachfront property near Kona.

Rosewood Kona Village Resort, Hawaii | Kilauea Lava Flow, Hawaii

Oahu offers the big city fun of Waikiki and a beach that goes on for days. Book a surfboard for the day or head out for a ride in an outrigger canoe, it’s a chance to let the locals “surf” the canoe back to the beach. Or head to the North Shore where you can watch the pros take on the waves. Make time to explore the U.S.S. Arizona national historic site in Pearl Harbor and hike up to Diamond Head for incredible sea views.
