Soak it All In

Find yourself at Aqua Kauai Beach Resort, a 25-acre retreat on Kauai's longest beach with four swimming pools and waterfalls all around. The pet-friendly resort is one of a handful of properties by Aston Hotels, a company operating hotels in Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the big island. LGBT travelers visiting Aston's Oahu properties can get 10 percent off as part of its Out and Proud in Hawaii campaign. (AquaResorts.com)

Really, Really Chill

In 2013, gay real estate mogul Xorin Balbes opened Lumeria Maui, a 23-room inn and retreat center where you can escape, relax, and explore. The center immerses guests into yoga and spa adventures, while granting access to a private six-acre property featuring stunning ocean and island views. It's guaranteed to send you home replenished.

Get Adventurous

Culinary, water, and spa adventures await at Hilton Waikoloa Village, a TAG-approved destination stretching along the famous Kohala Coast. The beloved property has long been a favorite LGBT destination, and for good reason. With incredible events, oceanfront entertainment, and nonstop opportunities to interact with like-minded travelers, this is an oasis not to be missed. Hilton's "Stay Hilton, Go Out" package (Hilton.com/GoOut) adds amenities like premium Wi-Fi, welcome beverages, late checkout, and LGBT-friendly travel ideas. (HiltonWaikoloaVillage.com)
