What are the best places to stay in Hawaii?
The Hawaiian Islands have a natural quiet beauty you don't find many places in the world. So, finding a great place to stay isn't too difficult. Here are a few of the best places to stay in Hawaii that we think you'll fall in love with:
Holualoa Inn, Big Island, HI: We can't imagine a more picture-perfect location than this lovely inn about 1,400 feet up Mt. Hualalai. Ocean views, tropical vegetation, and sunsets will have you sighing in pure bliss. The inn is located on 30 acres of lush Kona coffee trees with scenic walking trails to explore, a swimming pool, and a hot tub to chill in while looking out at the ocean. Even better, the Holualoa Inn is a bed and breakfast with mouth-watering gourmet breakfasts to start your day off right.
Kepuhi Beach Resort, Molokai, HI: Molokai is like a forgotten paradise in the Hawaiian Islands and this wonderful resort is one of the best places to stay. It is surprisingly affordable too. The Kepuhi Beach Resort is right on the coast with warm sandy beaches, palm trees, and beautiful garden-like grounds. The private beach is only steps from your door and offers a quiet retreat away from overcrowded tourist spots. Much of Molokai is that way too so it is one of the most peaceful vacation destinations in Hawaii.
Kuono at Volcano, Volcano, HI: This beautiful hidden gem is only about five minutes from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. You are in a prime spot to enjoy this rugged volcanic landscape that is home to two of the world's most active volcanos. If you haven't walked with inches of actively flowing lava, it is quite the experience. Kuono at Volcano is a lovely studio-style home with lots of light and an open lanai with a gas fire pit. Enjoying evenings outside on a beautiful Hawaiian island with a fire glowing against the night sky with billions of stars above is a zen-like experience.
