The Best Hotel in Lanai, Hawaii

Background Illustration for Hotels

The good news is that you're sure to escape the crowds on this quaint island. The bad news is that Lanai has limited accommodation options, including the pricey Four Seasons Resort Lanai, or the relatively budget-friendly Hotel Lanai (which closed for renovations in mid-2018). Four Seasons Resort's Lodge at Koele has also closed for renovations, though there's talk it will reopen as a destination spa in early 2019.

Four Seasons Resort Lanai

$$$$ | 1 Manele Bay Rd., Lanai City, HI, 96763, USA Fodor's Choice

In addition to stunning views of Hulopoe Bay and the rocky coastline, this sublime retreat offers manicured grounds featuring native Hawaiian plants, as well as urban-chic interiors featuring meticulously curated art from Polynesia, Micronesia, and Hawaii. Adults can languish in the adults-only, lagoon-style pool, while children can enjoy the family pool, try their hand at sand sculpting, or explore tidal pools along Hulopoe Bay. It might be tempting to relax the day away, but the resort can arrange numerous activities, including horseback riding, UTV rides, evening astronomy experiences, and sporting clays.
