The best things to do in Maui, according to the experts: Forbes Travel Guide, Vogue, and World's 50 Beaches have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Hawanawana Spa at Four Seasons Resort Lanai comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Lahaina and Hana.

Kilolani Spa at Grand Wailea and The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua Spa hold the next two places. Forbes Travel Guide and Vogue show up on more of this list than any other guide.

  1. The spa at Grand Wailea takes its name from ancient Hawaiian stargazers, and the reference is not decorative. Kilolani's treatment menu shifts every ten days to follow the lunar cycle, folding in native botanicals and indigenous healing practices that change with the moon's path. Vogue named it among the 100 best spas in the world. At 50,000 square feet, it's a serious commitment, which suits Wailea's crowd perfectly.

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
