Kauai aerial view

Kauai, United States

Kauai, the Garden Isle, is the oldest and greenest of the main Hawaiian islands, shaped by the emerald cliffs of the Napali Coast, the vast red gorge of Waimea Canyon and the taro fields of Hanalei. Luxury here is quiet and low-rise, divided between the lush North Shore around Princeville and the sunny beaches of Poipu on the south coast.
