Hawaii's Top Hotels, Resorts, B&Bs, and Vacation Rentals
Aloha! This article may link to trusted Hawaii resources at no extra cost to you. Mahalo for your support!
Hawaii’s hotel and resort landscape is shifting in 2026. Major renovations are wrapping up across the islands—the Mauna Kea Resort on the Big Island just completed a $200 million overhaul, and new properties like the Hyatt Place/Hyatt House at Ho’opili on Oahu are opening their doors this summer. Whether you’re booking a beachfront resort, a boutique hotel in a quiet neighborhood, or a condo rental with a kitchen, your options are broader than they’ve been in years.
Each island has its own personality when it comes to where you stay. Oahu offers the full spectrum from budget-friendly Waikiki hotels to ultra-luxury North Shore retreats. Maui’s resort corridor along Ka’anapali and Wailea is hard to beat for beach access. Kauai keeps things smaller and more intimate. And the Big Island spreads its best properties along the sunny Kohala Coast. Use this page to explore accommodations by island, by type, or search for exactly what you need.
