At a glance
Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea is a five-star oceanfront resort on Wailea Beach, on the sunny southwest coast of Maui.
The resort spreads over 15 oceanfront acres above Wailea Beach and is the only resort on the island with both a Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five Diamond rating. Its 383 rooms and suites are among the largest on Maui, with furnished lanais and views of the ocean, gardens, or Mount Haleakala. It has recently been refreshed.
Dining runs across four restaurants, led by Wolfgang Puck’s Spago, oceanfront Ferraro’s, the steak-and-seafood DUO, and the new sushi room KOMO, plus a Lobby Lounge with a nightly hula show. There is a spa and wellness centre, an adults-only infinity pool, and two more pools.
It suits couples, gay or straight, on a honeymoon as much as families, helped by kids’ and teens’ programmes. Kahului Airport is about 40 minutes north, and Haleakala and the Road to Hana are easy day trips.

Further information
Dining
There are four restaurants. Spago is Wolfgang Puck’s Maui room, a Forbes Four-Star spot blending Hawaiian and Californian cooking, while Ferraro’s is the only oceanfront open-air restaurant in Wailea, serving coastal Italian on the sand. DUO handles steaks and local seafood, and the new KOMO is a sushi room with twice-weekly shipments from Japan. The Lobby Lounge runs cocktails, a nightly hula show, and sunset torch lighting.
Wellness
The spa and wellness center has been rebuilt as part of the resort’s recent refresh, with 13 treatment rooms and oceanfront hales in the gardens, and a signature Lomi Mohala massage drawing on Hawaiian technique. There are three pools, including an adults-only infinity pool with cabanas, a fitness center, and tennis. Wailea Beach is calm and swimmable, with snorkeling off the sand and the wider Wailea coast for walks.
Activities
Wailea is one of the best bases on Maui for getting out. Three championship golf courses are minutes away, with tennis and pickleball at the resort, and catamaran trips run from the beach to Molokini Crater for some of the island’s best snorkeling. Further afield, there is the sunrise drive up Haleakala and the long, winding Road to Hana. For families, the resort runs Kids for All Seasons and Teens for All Seasons programs.
Stellar service. Stellar products. Stellar people and it gets so much better when you pick up the phone and call.

Luxury New Mexico: Santa Fe, Los Alamos & Breaking Bad Locations
Tailor-made HolidayNew Mexico doesn't look like anywhere else in America, and it doesn't feel like it either. The light is different, the landscape is different, and the culture, shaped by centuries of Native American, Spanish colonial, and Anglo-American layering, sits apart from anything on the coasts. This itinerary runs three threads simultaneously.

Aspen in Winter: A Luxury Gay Ski Escape
Tailor-made HolidayAspen is one of those places that rewards arriving with no particular agenda. It's one of the top luxury travel destinations in the USA. The skiing across four mountains is as good as anywhere in North America, but the town itself pulls equally hard: the restaurants are exceptional, the hotels are world-class, and the cultural life punches well above what you would expect from a mountain resort of this size.
