7. For great views and spa treatments, check into Hana-Maui Resort in Hawaii
© Hana-Maui Resort
Hana-Maui Resort was my very first stay at an all-inclusive resort. It's still one of my top 10! The most amazing thing about Hana-Maui Resort is how friendly and attentive their staff is.
You are greeted with a refreshing drink which they bring out to your car before they park your car! Afterwards, a member of their staff drives you to your cottage in a golf cart. They shared their stories with us, how long they've worked at the hotel (25 years!) and their favorite spots here.
The spa at Hana-Maui Resort was also one of the best I've ever been too which actually surprises you a little because the place is so remote and secluded.
I recommend asking for a cottage that's closest to the ocean for an incredible view right from the living room! We found fine organic tea and snacks in ours that were all included in the price.
You'll also find lots of things to do nearby in Hana.
