Hawaii is often seen as a family destination, but what if you're searching for the best Hawaii resorts for couples?



The appeal of Hawaii to families is pretty straightforward. Unlike other destinations, Hawaii has few distractions, such as gambling or a bustling nightlife. For multi-generational families, there's something for every age group and plenty to do together as a family unit. One of the first things to know about Hawaii is that, except for one resort, the Hotel Wailea (see below), adult-only alternatives don't exist on the islands. Additionally, there are no "all-inclusive" Hawaii resorts.



When planning a vacation as a couple or honeymooners, you might be challenged about which resorts in Hawaii are suitable for your needs. If you're researching the internet, nearly any resort you pick will seem appealing for couples. But what are these resorts really like? Sure, there are reviews, but how do you narrow your choices? That's where we come in to help.



These are our top two resorts in Hawaii for couples, covering each of the four major islands and catering to high-end and moderate price ranges.



Top Two Oahu Resorts for Couples



High End -The Kahala - Average price $650.0 per night



Our high-end choice for Oahu is The Kahala. The location alone makes it ideal, as families with young kids are less likely to stay there. Situated on its own stretch of beach, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki, this resort offers numerous amenities for couples. These include couples massages, private poolside dining, exclusive activities for couples, and Dolphin Quest sessions.

Moderate - Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa



Located overlooking the beach, this resort has been recently renovated and has lovely amenities for couples. A big plus is the adult-only pool; it’s also quite large and has a jacuzzi adjacent to it. The property offers private fire-pit seating for romantic cocktails at sunset, Couples spa massage treatments, stargazing sessions, and even painting classes for couples to enjoy.
