Your Next Break Made Easy: Where to Stay
OUTRIGGER Kauai Beach Resort & Spa Lihue, HI
Known as the "Garden Isle" for its lush landscapes, the Hawaiian island of Kauai is a paradise for those seeking a mix of relaxation and adventure. Set along 25 acres of pristine coastline, OUTRIGGER Kauai Beach Resort & Spa is as much a restful retreat as it is the perfect base for exploring the island's natural beauty. Begin your morning with a sunrise beach stroll or beachfront yoga session before diving into an active day. Whether it's splashing in one of the four pools—with a lava rock waterfall and waterslide—or booking a helicopter tour over the island's dramatic scenery, there's no shortage of outdoor fun. The concierge can arrange offsite adventures like kayaking and paddleboarding in Wailua River State Park or snorkeling at nearby beaches. After a day of exploration, unwind with an oceanside treatment at the Hawaiian Rainforest Spa or enjoy live local music and island-inspired fare at Shutters Lounge.

Dine in style at the newly-renovated 1902 Main Dining Room. With lofty ceilings and a custom marble bar, the space balances sophisticated elegance with the casual enjoyment of a good meal and plates up fresh takes on classic New England fare for breakfast and dinner.
