"During Salesforce’s 2022 President’s Club trip attendees were treated to a private performance by Katy Perry at Mauna Lani, an Auberge resort in Hawaii, underscoring how these incentive trips can include celebrity entertainment as part of the experience." - Anna Silman
"Long a mainstay on the Kona Kohala coast, Mauna Lani emerged from a $200 million renovation with a refreshed Hawaiian 2.0 look—light wood, soft sea shades, lots of white—while retaining a comforting sense of nostalgia. For honeymooners it offers elegant oceanfront residences, beachside fire pits for s’mores under the stars, sunrise canoe paddles for two, and a cultural concierge who can arrange personalized outings to historic fishponds or ancient lava tubes, which makes it feel like classic Hawaii reimagined for modern romance." - Paris Wilson
"Located along the Kohala coast of Hawaii’s Big Island on 32 acres of swimmable beach, this large resort and residential property is tailored to both families and couples, with casual beach dining like fish tacos at the Surf Shack, sunset dinners at CanoeHouse, and seasonal whale-watching excursions aboard a 42-foot sporting yacht." - Jessica Vadillo Jessica Vadillo Jessica Vadillo is the editorial assistant at Travel + Leisure.

"A Big Island resort frequently recommended for families because it "caters to kids of all ages," with access to volcano-park excursions, snorkeling with manta rays, helicopter overfalls, and cultural luau experiences that engage multiple generations." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"A family-forward Hawaiian resort offering immersive kids programming (including a Holoholo-style kids crew with activities like crab hunting, Hawaiian-language lessons, petroglyph walks, and hands-on crafts) and cultural engagement through a resident cultural guide. Shallow, protected ponds and nearby whale-watching, lei-making and nature-focused experiences make it especially well suited to toddlers and young children who love exploring sea life and local traditions." - Travel + Leisure Editors
