The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua

Behind you, lush tropical rainforest. In front of you, the warm, tropical waters of the Pacific. And all that stands between you and the ocean is a glorious Par 5. This is life at The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua, one of Hawaii's premiere golf resorts.

With two incredible championship golf courses situated on a pineapple plantation, you can be forgiven for spending all your time on the links. But the sprawling outdoor pools are a tempting place to do absolutely nothing for a few hours. The three glorious beaches at the resort offer golden sand and incredible snorkeling. And the 17,500 sq. ft. spa has an outdoor treatment area where you can bask in a couples' massage in the shade of palm trees.

The rooms here are elegantly furnished, with decor fitting with island life. All feature over-size bathrooms, LCD flat-screen TVs, and a view that will knock your sandals off. And, come sunset, there aren't many better places to be than the outdoor terrace at the hotel's award-winning restaurant.

The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua is part of Ritz-Carlton Hotels and Resorts (The)

The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua is on the western shore of Maui, on the edge of Kapalua. It's surrounded by three beautiful beaches and the dramatic, rocky outcrops left over from the island's volcanic heritage. When not at the beach or on the links, you can hike through the rainforest, explore the other towns on Maui, or take the famous road to Hana. The Kapalua Airport is within five minutes' drive from the hotel.
