America's Best Beach Hotels

No. 29 Fairmont Kea Lani, Maui, HI

This 22-acre beachfront Hawaiian resort takes its inspiration from Moorish architecture (domes, dramatic archways, whitewashed walls). Take your pick among water sports like snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, stand-up paddling, and scuba diving, or brave a 140-foot waterslide at one of the resort pools. The 413 suites and 37 villas are on a calm cove ultrasafe for kids, and you’re never far from the beach, even when golfing.
