The Best Family-Friendly Resorts in Hawaii, According to a Local | Condé Nast Traveler

"Long beloved by staycationing residents and returning visitors, this recently refreshed property keeps its laid-back, friendly spirit alive—and even honors repeat guests with a charming kukui nut lei tradition where a special white kukui nut is added each stay so you can literally wear your history. What it does best is share Hawaiian culture authentically: the lobby’s Kawenaokeao Cultural Center anchors daily activities like hula, weaving, lei-making, and storytelling. A whimsical whale-shaped pool and a steps-away perch on world-famous Kāʻanapali Beach—where there’s always space to spread out—seal the deal for beach-loving families." - Catherine Toth Fox
