Best Wellness Hotels in Hawaii

Koloa Landing Resort at Poipu, Autograph Collection occupies a 25-acre setting on Kauai’s sunny southern coast, close to the dining, shopping and beaches of Poipu. The resort comprises 298 accommodations, split between deluxe studios and expansive one to four bedroom villas, including a 3,600 square foot penthouse. Interiors are shaped by island-inspired design with rich woods, natural textures and breezy open-plan layouts, all with private lanais and generous living space.

Dining is focused around Holoholo Grill, a casual open-air venue led by celebrity chef Sam Choy, while a gourmet market and poolside bar cover quick meals and essentials. Wellness is delivered through The Spa at Koloa Landing, featuring Hawaiian-inspired therapies, alongside a modern 24-hour fitness centre.

There is also a soccer field, putting green and volleyball court, with concierge services supporting excursions to nearby Poipu Beach, Lawai Beach, golf courses and Napali Coast boat tours.
